Description

Luxuriate in panoramic Pacific views and the sound of ocean waves from all rooms in this hilltop, secluded villa named "Bouganvilla" off the Pacific shores of Costa Rica.

Experience howler monkeys, iguanas and hundreds of birds right outside your door.
You can also enjoy deep sea sport fishing departing right from your own secluded beach.

Enjoy the privacy and peacefulness of a private home -- yet have all the convenience and amenities of the small but intimate Hotel Punta Islita only a 5-minute walk away.
Punta Islita is a boutique hotel that is consistently included by Frommer's in its "6 Best Luxury Hotels and Resorts in Costa Rica".

Inlaid in a pristine mountain outpost of Costa Rica's Pacific Coast, Hotel Punta Islita interweaves nature, community, and art in a colorful tapestry that cascades from the summit unto the intimate cove and namesake islet at the far end of the beach.
Pamper yourself and a loved one with authentic Costa Rican charm, sensible luxury, and the incomparable service details borne of Guanacaste's hospitality.

You will have full access to all resort activities and amenities, including daily maid service, lunch at the private beach, and swimming in one of several pools.

Features of the villa include your own private "infinity pool" (great at night for stargazing), entertainment room with satellite TV and VCR, beautiful furniture with American and Costa Rican modern art, a fully equipped modern kitchen (which can be pre-stocked through the resort prior to your arrival), and three bedrooms, each with private bath.
Air conditioning and ceiling fans, along with your private pool, will keep you cool no matter when you plan to go.

Activities you can arrange nearby include hiking, biking, tennis, a fitness center, wildlife viewing, horseback riding, guided nature walks, a 9-hole par-3 executive golf course, swimming, boating, surfing, kayaking, deep sea sport fishing, and eating lots of wonderful dishes in several restaurants.

This is truly paradise found!
