The space This Orosi Valley estate (not in the town of Orosi) is ideal for large families needing plenty of social distancing space and loads of sunshine, or for girlfriend getaways, company retreats, etc... This is a very spacious estate with lots of privacy. While this listing doesn't allow us a "drop down" option for this, several of the bunk beds are "triples" meaning there are 3 beds instead of 2, all of which have privacy curtains similar to a train 'berth'. The property can accommodate 31 guests on their own beds, making it ideal for large groups, families, girlfriend getaways, etc. The bunk beds are unusual in that they have curtains around them (as in train travel), with shelves, staircases, etc. Super fast broadband wifi 200MB fiber optic Small stores are less than a mile, larger grocery stores are located about 15 minutes away in Paraiso, while mega style stores like Walmart are located about 20 minutes away in Cartago, which you pass on the way from the airport to the property.
