This area of Costa Rica is known for having a Spring-like climate with warm days and cool nights. At one time the owners operated Monte Azul as a retreat and at that time had a restaurant for the guests. This particular space is now being utilized for the production of their very successful artisan cheese business. There are 4 guest cottages here that sit steps away from the river.

The owners have done an amazing job with landscaping and situating the cottages around a meandering river. There are hiking trails that spring from here and encompass the property and also lead down to a magnificent swimming hole and waterfall. The main house is a very nice structure built with quality craftsmanship. It has an open floor plan with modular walls that give the owner various uses for the studio space. Large transom windows allow for lots of natural light to enter this space, which over the years has hosted many artists-in-residence. The unpretentious elegance of the custom-designed buildings and furnishings, perfectly compliment the inspiring natural terrain and climate of this magical place.
