About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
8th Wonder of the World: Riverfront Luxury with Jacuzzi & natural Pool
This unique place in the world is built around giant boulders where it is believed that they found the cave of mammoths (mastodons)🦣 thousands of years ago. The river front property is full of a great variety of fruit trees and breathtaking mountain views. It's a jungle paradise with an excellent climate in one of the best towns in Costa Rica, Rivas.
Rocka Verde Retreat is a beautiful home built around 4 giant rocks that provides total seclusion and privacy in a natural setting. It's artistic, luxurious and spacious featuring a jacuzzi with waterfall and a riverfront natural pool. The large shower also has 2 waterfalls. The gourmet kitchen is a pleasure to cook in and is equipped with a quality appliances like our cappuccino machine. We have a fully stocked chef's kitchen including snack pantry with delicious treats like caviar, escargots, anchovies, and olives from Spain. The bedrooms have river views with comfortable beds for a perfect nights sleep. You can also schedule a relaxing massage in our gazebo built by the river or our chef can cook up the perfect meal catered to your taste buds.
The whole property is here for you to enjoy. Take in the river serenity by dipping into our natural pool, relax in the gazebo, or catch some sun on the lounge chairs. All paths are well maintained and our fruit trees are there for your pleasure to pick and enjoy the local variety.
The host Robery Hennesy is an artistic home builder and designer that finds unique lots and builds custom homes for potential buyers. This land was purchased without the knowledge of these beautiful rocks. The seller didn't know about them and Robert discovered them 2 weeks after the purchase. The original plan was to build a two-story house with an elevator next door, but when the four rocks presented themselves they became the focus of the home.
This inspirational home was featured in House Hunters International and you can come experience the magic for yourself. Bringing the jungle into our retreat, it certainly is unique and we like to think of it as the eighth wonder of the world.
Please note that this is Costa Rica. There can be some bugs that sometimes come into the house but keeping the screens closed will help tremendously. Power outages and internet outages also happen and they are beyond our control. They are not frequent, yet they do happen. We do have wifi but the service isn't fast and can be slow at times. You can also expect to see some wildlife nearby like birds and animals. As we are in the jungle we recommend a 4x4 and expect to cross a few bridges and a small stream. This is all part of life in Costa Rica and we hope you enjoy this lively nature's paradise.
