Villa Montemar was designed for guests who want luxury without pretense. The open first-floor plan centers on a custom chef's kitchen with propane gas cooking, a double-sided refrigerator, espresso machine, and everything you need to cook or simply gather. The kitchen flows into a generous dining and living area — every room in the villa looks out to the Pacific — all oriented toward the ocean and the jungle canopy below. Step outside to the heated infinity pool, outdoor shower, covered dining terrace, and Napoleon charcoal grill — all framed by panoramic views across two levels of outdoor living space. Accomodations: Two master suites with king beds, ensuite bathrooms, and private balcony access through sliding glass doors A third flex room: ideal as a private office or third bedroom with a king pullout sofa and its own full bath Full laundry room with washer, dryer, and sink

Villa Montemar sits in a rare sweet spot: deeply private, yet close to everything that makes this corner of Costa Rica special. Beaches & Coast: 25 minutes to the surf beaches of Dominical, Playa Linda, and Uvita's iconic whale tail beach. Day trips to Manuel Antonio National Park are easy from here. Adventure: Book whale watching, deep-sea fishing, river rafting, ATV tours, or a guided horseback ride through the valley. Hike to the Nauyaca or Eco Chontales waterfalls — at Chontales, you can ride a horse to the base and order a traditional Costa Rican lunch beside the water. Nature: Fila Cacao's hiking trails begin steps from the villa, winding through valleys, farmland, and jungle. Ambitious guests can arrange a climb of Cerro Chirripó (3,821m), Costa Rica's highest peak, where clear days reveal both the Pacific and the Caribbean. Birdwatching: The immediate area is considered a biodiversity hotspot. Toucans, aracaris, parrots, hummingbirds, tanagers, and raptors are regular visitors. Mornings on the terrace feel like waking up inside a sanctuary. Wellness & Culture: A renowned yoga and spiritual retreat is a short walk down the road. Weekly mark
