The Floating House

The Floating House in Costa Rica is a one of a kind property in the tropical treetops above Hermosa Beach. Receiving five awards at the prestigious Costa Rican Binneal in 2015 as well as featuring in a number of publications such as Inhabitat, Dezeen, Design Boom, World Architecture News and Su Casa Magazine, the Floating House truly is a marvel.

Made up of a number of ‘treehouse’ style buildings, the property is connected by bamboo walkways from the bedrooms to living areas. The king-size master bedroom and queen-bedroom share a large open-air spa bathroom. The latter also contains an additional single bed. The third bedroom is a double room with ensuite and is on a lower level to the other bedrooms. The Costa Rica rental property is also very ecologically minded, made from sustainable teak as well as having its own water-catching and filtration system.

There is also a large outdoor infinity pool and terrace area, overlooking the jungle canopy and out to the bay. Guests may find some friendly neighbourhood parrots and monkeys pop by for a visit.

For those looking to venture out, Floating House is only 10 minutes’ drive from nearby surf town Santa Teresa and a range of outdoor activities. The perfect place to stay or play!
