1. Included Services

Daily housekeeping is provided Monday through Saturday (excluding Sundays and national holidays). Note: housekeeping does not include dishwashing; guests are responsible for their own dishes daily. Bath towels are changed every 2nd day; bed linens every 7th day. Amenities include access to the private Yoga Shala, 100 Mbps fiber optic internet, and on-site parking. Electricity and tap water (AYA) are included — please use resources responsibly. Regular pool and garden maintenance is included, and an on-site property manager is available for local recommendations and logistics.

2. House Rules & Atmosphere

Check-in is at 3:00 PM; check-out is at 10:00 AM. Late check-outs may be charged as an additional night. For retreat groups, the kitchen must be cleaned and formally handed over by the retreat's gastronomy manager. Our villas are spaces for relaxation, well-being, and connection — not party venues. Quiet hours are observed from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM. Smoking and vaping are strictly prohibited inside the villas and the Yoga Shala.

3. Liability & Risk Acknowledgement

Our property is built in harmony with the rainforest. Guests acknowledge that the property features open-air bathrooms, natural ventilation (no AC), uneven surfaces, stairs, and the presence of local wildlife. Guests participate in physical activities (yoga, surfing, etc.) and use property features (pool, terraces) at their own risk. Children must be supervised at all times, especially near the pool. Drop In Costa Rica is not liable for injuries, health issues, or loss of personal property sustained during your stay, except in cases of proven gross negligence or intentional misconduct. We are not responsible for service interruptions caused by extreme weather, natural disasters, or other events beyond our control.

4. General Provisions

Only the number of guests specified in the booking are permitted on the property unless prior written consent is given. We reserve the right to adjust our prices if necessary.
