About Us

At Drop In Costa Rica, life is about living close to the ocean, embracing adventure, and finding joy in simplicity. What began as a leap into the unknown turned into a way of life — shaped by nature, community, and the rhythm of the waves. We believe in sharing the pura vida spirit: a life rooted in freedom, balance, and connection.

Our Story

Our journey began with a decision to start over. Inspired by the idea of leaving behind routines and chasing a dream, we traded familiar surroundings for the beauty of Costa Rica. Here, between ocean and jungle, we built a new life step by step — carried by curiosity, courage, and a deep love for this place.

Today, Drop In Costa Rica is more than just a name. It’s our story of change, of following the heart, and of creating a home where others can feel the same freedom and inspiration that led us here.

Real stories from people all around the world that visited us

"The house is incredibly private and peaceful, tucked away in the valley but still just a short walk to the beach and restaurants. We loved waking up to the sounds of the jungle every morning."

"The open-air shower at Simsalabim was a highlight—watching monkeys in the trees while you're in the shower is something you don't get anywhere else. Truly unique and beautiful."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

— Luca, Italy 🇮🇹

Everything was spotless and well-designed. As a digital nomad, the 100 Mbps fiber internet was rock solid, which is rare for Santa Teresa. Mike was a fantastic host!

"We stayed at Verde y Azul and it was stunning. Having a private saltwater pool to dip into after a 5-minute walk back from the surf was heaven. The kitchen is fully equipped for long stays."
