Island in the Sky
Island in the Sky is a breathtaking mountainside estate located in the private Pacific Heights community above Potrero, offering exceptional privacy at the end of a scenic two-mile road. The property features a beautifully designed three-bedroom main home alongside a recently renovated two-bedroom guesthouse, creating a flexible and spacious layout ideal for larger groups. The main residence centers around an open-concept living space with a bright, contemporary living room and a fully equipped chef’s kitchen with high-end finishes, while each bedroom is thoughtfully appointed with its own ensuite, ensuring comfort and privacy throughout the stay. The guesthouse adds even more versatility, comfortably accommodating additional guests with two bedrooms and a sofa bed, along with its own living area, dining space, and fully equipped kitchen. The seamless indoor-outdoor flow continues across both structures, with shared access to expansive outdoor living areas including a covered terrace, outdoor dining, and multiple lounge spaces. This thoughtful floor plan allows groups to gather together with ease while still offering separation and privacy when desired. Outdoors, the experience is truly elevated by a stunning infinity pool and spacious patio overlooking sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean and surrounding mountains. Located just a short 10-minute drive from Playa Potrero, guests can easily enjoy local dining, beaches, and activities while returning to a peaceful, elevated retreat. With secure gated access, modern amenities, and panoramic views at every turn, Island in the Sky offers a refined and private Costa Rican escape.

This house was amazing and so was the rental company. Michael, who lives in the property, was so helpful and attentive. I would definitely stay here again. It did take until our last day to see monkeys by the pool in the trees but it could be because we were always sleeping in a little. Lol
