The Villa is located in Playa Jurel in the Guanacaste Province in Northwest Costa Rica (Pacific Ocean side). The Pacific side of Costa Rica is famous for its beautiful beaches, stunning hillsides, volcanoes, rainforest, scuba diving and fishing. The villa itself is located in Bahia Pez Vela just outside Playa Hermosa, a small beach community with many restaurants and tourist services. Other beach communities located nearby include Playa del Coco and Playa Flamingo, among several others. The villa is located only a 25 minute drive from the Liberia international airport.

The Villa is a short driving distance from the Monteverde Preserve, an excellent place to go for a river tour where you can see an amazing wildlife habitat which includes monkeys (howlers and Capuchin), crocodiles, macaws, in addition to many other bird and animal species. Seeing these sights in person puts the shows on Animal Planet to shame.

The Arenal Volcano and surrounding rainforest are an incredible sight. The volcano is active and you must stay 5M away in distance at all times. It is unusual in that it continues to erupt, spewing mud and lava, but only on one side. On clear nights, you can see the bright lava coming down the volcano.

Just outside of the Arenal Volcano is the rainforest area. This area is a great place to go on a canopy tour, horseback riding, and whitewater rafting. We can tell you from experience that nothing beats flying down a zip line in a harness at 30 - 40mph from 150 ft. in the air for a distance of 100 yards or more. There is no better way to see a rainforest than during a canopy tour. It is a safe and exhilarating experience which provides life-long memories, especially for those who previously never thought they were capable of this activity. Many of the canopy tours require travel by foot and/or horse so you get to appreciate all the scenery. Don’t forget to take a moisture-protected camera as you won't want to miss the photo-op of a lifetime when you fly down a zip line and land on a platform over a hundred feet in the air.

If you wish to spend a couple days in the rainforest, there are very inexpensive hotels in the vicinity so you will not have to make the full trip on multiple days. The trip takes approximately two hours as you must drive up to a high elevation. We have a guide service to recommend which will make your trip both easy, comfortable, stressless and informative.

In addition to ecotouring, the Guanacaste area also possesses some of the finest scuba diving and sport fishing in the world. There are scuba trips available for every level of experience in addition to dive training for those who wish to become certified. There are golf courses within a short driving distance of the complex. Sport fishing boats can be acquired at several local beaches. Prime fishing is during the Green Season (explained in pricing).

Costa Rica calls to your spirit and evokes the explorer that resides within us all. Our Villa is perfect for vacations, honeymoons and romantic escapes. As it sleeps six, it is also ideal for corporate retreats or rewards to star performers. No life is complete without a trip to this majestic land and our Villa provides just the right magic touch.
