Santos Skoolies · Tierras Morenas, Guanacaste
Three converted school buses on a hillside — and every piece of furniture inside, made by hand in the woodshop next door.
Choose your busReclaimed, remade
We build what's worth keeping out of what others discard. The woodshop, the rooms you sleep in, the furniture around you — all reclaimed, all shaped by the same hands in Guanacaste.
Wake up in the work
Each bus was converted and furnished by Bernardo Urbina — trained in New York and Milan, and the same designer behind every commission. The Guanacaste desk facing the valley, the bed, the details: all made in the shop minutes away.
Stay a while, see how the work is made, and meet the person who makes it.

Book all three and the hillside holds seven.
From the bus to your home
If a piece stays with you after the stay, we can make one for you — in your wood, to your proportions.
Good to know
Remote on purpose — bring what you need and settle into the quiet.
