10/10
The Rooftop House sits at the edge of modernity and tropical charm, a place imbued with a subtle allure for those who desire both refuge and proximity to Costa Ricaâs vibrant surroundings. Staying here, I feel as though I am teetering on the cusp of escapism, floating just above the everyday world, with the city's hum softened beneath me. Perhaps it is the bungalow's structureâa place where space and air meet, where rooftops feel like thresholds to a larger worldâthat allows guests to explore, yet still return to a calm, curated atmosphere.
Thereâs something evocative, almost nostalgic, about the amenities that greet you upon arrival. High-speed internet, air conditioning, and a television, reminders of home comforts, act as anchors in a foreign land, ensuring you do not stray too far into a sense of dislocation. Yet, here in EscazĂșâs vibrant district, every detail remains attuned to the essence of place. This blend of familiarity and novelty is made even more seamless by the amenities providedâthe soft bath sheets, the poised elegance of a hairdryer waiting on a vanity, and the quiet assurance of hot showers. Aware of the delicate balance between familiarity and distance, the bungalow seems to cocoon its guests in understated warmth.
