Villa Jalapa Costa Rica - Secluded Family Beach House Amazing View Private Pool

A luxurious fully appointed 3 bed/ 3.5 bath house with living room, full kitchen, dining area and private pool. Perfect for a family or group of friends who want a comfortable yet modern and elegant place to enjoy their time on one of Central America's most exclusive beaches!

Located in the secluded Nicoya Peninsula in the Costa Rican province of Guanacaste, you will awaken to the sound of Howler monkeys in the trees, step outside to see migrating whales from the comfort of the pool, and witness the beautiful Scarlet Macaws as they make their way through the trees. You can spend your days at Villa Jalapa laying by the pool or ocean, reading in a hammock, or going on surfing, kayaking and fishing adventures. On your short walk to the beach, you can encounter deer, coatis and countless tropical birds, or you can lay by the pool and watch these amazing creatures as you sun bathe or sip on a drink. If you’re searching for unique experiences in this remote part of Costa Rica, you can go to neighboring Camaronal Wildlife Refuge to see nesting sea turtles at night and newborn hatchlings at dawn or dusk, or surf on its world class, powerful and uncrowded waves. Similar experiences can be found at Corozalito beach, where surfing and turtles abound and even fewer people visit. In addition, our friendly local operators offer multiple tours including ocean and mangrove kayaking, horseback riding, surfing lessons, stand up paddle boarding, sport fishing, and yoga. For those in search of a cultural experience, the local town of Islita, within walking distance, offers community guided tours of the women's art cooperative and the outdoor art museum. You may also request to take Tico (Costa Rican) cooking and tropical cocktail mixing lessons. Lisbeth, our on-site property manager, also offers cooking services (for a fee) for our guests--an opportunity to try local fare by one of the best chefs in the area! Guests of Villa Jalapa will enjoy all the comforts of home with on site property management to meet every vacation wish you could possibly have.

Originally built in 1997, Villa Jalapa underwent a major renovation during the fall of 2013 and emerged as an elegant yet comfortable vacation paradise. With its own private, gated entrance, 24 hour security and parking for as many as 5 vehicles, no expense was sparred. The property is made up of 4 individual buildings: 3, 1 bedroom villas nestled around the central living/dining/kitchen area which opens to the infinity pool. Villa 1 boasts a king size bed with sliding glass door out to the patio leading to the pool, a bathroom with shower, flat screen television, and air conditioning. Villas 2 and 3 each have 2 full size beds, bathroom with shower, flat screen television, air conditioning, and sliding glass door to the patio leading to the pool. A large Flat screen television in the living area, stainless steel appliances, stone counter tops, and cool tile flooring. The kitchen is stocked with cookware, plates & silverware, glasses & wine glasses, toaster, blender, coffee maker, Full size commercial refrigerator, separate full size standup commercial freezer, dishwasher, stove, oven and microwave.

The comfortable living area has a 50” flat screen smart HDTV and a suite of board and card games for groups of all ages. Comfortable seating for meals and lounging up to 12 people and large double opening sliding glass doors facing the pool and ocean make this the heart of the property.

The bedrooms and bathrooms are equipped with all linens and will be serviced daily by the on site staff to clean floors, beds and bathrooms. Within a 10km range surfers of all levels of experience will find conditions suitable to their ability, with the crown jewel being playa Camaronal's powerful and uncrowded beach break waves. The bedrooms have luxurious bedding, full sized dressers, closets with hangers, and flat screen televisions.

Villa Jalapa is also perfect if you are attending an event at the Punta Islita Hotel (closed for renovations until June 2026).
