Beach access penthouse (top floor) with access to beach through small beautifully landscaped rain forest reserve with small bridge over this short, but, beautifully landscaped walk to ocean. Macaws, toucans, basilisks (Jesus Lizard), iguanas, and many other birds and animals are seen regularly at the condo and privately owned reserve. This third floor condo overlooks the pool and is walking distance to downtown Jaco and Jacowalk, but, far enough away from the center of town to be safe for families. The condo was built to American and European standards utilizing building materials from Germany and the United States. Macaw Ocean Club has been popular for Europeans, Americans and locals and welcomes people from all backgrounds. A 24 hour guard is onsite at all times to assist people with arrivals and departures.

The owner and wife are resident and permanent citizens (respectively) of Costa Rica. Nindy (Tica and wife of James) is the natural host and will make you feel at home as a guest. She speaks English and Spanish and always loves sharing information about Jaco and Costa Rica. James's hobbies include art and surfing.
