About the home

Luxury Vacation Villa Near Manuel Antonio Beach, Costa Rica

Luxury vacation villa near Manuel Antonio beach, set high above the Pacific coastline where rainforest, ocean, and shoreline come together in quiet harmony. From its elevated position, the villa looks out across Cathedral Point, the islands of Manuel Antonio National Park, and the beaches below — a setting that feels both expansive and deeply grounded in nature.

Here, the presence of the ocean is constant. Light moves across the water throughout the day, while warm breezes and distant waves shape a rhythm that invites you to slow down.

A Private Hillside Retreat Close to the Beach

This luxury vacation villa near Manuel Antonio beach is tucked into one of the area’s most desirable hillside neighborhoods. The location offers a rare balance: privacy and elevation, paired with close proximity to Manuel Antonio’s renowned beaches, national park trails, and dining experiences.

Days can be spent exploring the coast or the forest, then returning home to a peaceful retreat above it all.

Spacious luxury villa in Manuel Antonio / Costa Rica

Design That Follows the Landscape

The villa unfolds across multiple levels, carefully designed to mirror the natural contours of the land. Open living areas, wide terraces, and generous sightlines allow ocean and jungle views to define each space.

Natural materials, warm woods, stone textures, and understated finishes create an atmosphere that feels refined without feeling formal. The architecture never competes with its surroundings — it frames them.

Ten Ocean-View Suites with Restorative Comfort

Ten spacious bedrooms offer ocean views and private balconies, each designed as a quiet personal retreat. Every suite includes a full en-suite bathroom and thoughtful detailing that supports rest and privacy.

All bedrooms and key interior spaces are fully air-conditioned, providing cool, restful comfort after days spent at the beach, pool, or exploring Manuel Antonio.

An Infinity Pool Above the Coastline

The infinity-edge pool stretches toward the horizon, positioned to capture uninterrupted views of ocean and rainforest. It’s a space made for long afternoons — swimming, reading, or simply watching the light shift across the water.

As the sun lowers, the pool becomes the natural gathering place, where conversation lingers and the day gently comes to a close.

Nature at Your Doorstep

Life at this luxury vacation villa near Manuel Antonio beach is accompanied by the surrounding rainforest. White-faced monkeys move through the canopy, sloths rest among the trees, and tropical birds bring color and sound to the landscape.

At night, the rhythm of the forest blends with the distant sound of the sea, creating an atmosphere that feels calm, immersive, and restorative.

Wellness, Play, and Shared Moments

The villa includes a private spa space designed for moments of renewal, offering an ideal setting for in-villa treatments and quiet pauses.

Shared experiences unfold naturally throughout the home — from the private cinema to the fully air-conditioned game room with pool table, foosball, and ping pong paired with a wet bar and television, as well as a dedicated fitness room for workouts, yoga, or stretching.

These spaces are designed to complement the villa’s flow, offering options without distraction.

Thoughtful Service, Effortless Living

A private chef is included for two meals per day, allowing guests to enjoy beautifully prepared cuisine without leaving the villa. Customized meal plans, with or without alcohol, can be arranged to suit the rhythm of each stay.

The result is a vacation experience that feels supported yet unstructured — where comfort, scenery, and time together take precedence.

An Escape Villas Coastal Sanctuary

This luxury vacation villa near Manuel Antonio beach is not defined by excess, but by balance — between forest and coast, privacy and connection, design and nature.

It is a place created for presence. For long conversations, open views, and the simple luxury of space, light, and time.
