Luxury Boutique Villa, New Discounts! 360 Views, 22m Infinity Pool
Above the dramatic coastline of Mal País, where the jungle meets the sea and sunsets paint the sky in brilliant shades of gold and crimson, Casa Blanca offers a level of beauty, privacy, and serenity rarely found even among Costa Rica’s finest homes.
More than a luxury villa, Casa Blanca is a private sanctuary—a place where mornings begin with the calls of toucans and howler monkeys, afternoons are spent floating in the spectacular 22-meter infinity pool overlooking the Pacific, and evenings unfold beneath a canopy of stars with nothing but the sounds of nature surrounding you. Set amidst lush tropical gardens and commanding breathtaking ocean vistas, this award-winning estate has been thoughtfully designed to create an atmosphere of effortless elegance, where indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly and every space invites relaxation.
A Setting Unlike Any Other Perched above Mal País and just minutes from the vibrant surf town of Santa Teresa, Casa Blanca offers the best of both worlds: complete tranquility and convenient access to some of Costa Rica’s most celebrated beaches, restaurants, and adventures.
From sunrise to sunset, the ever-changing views are mesmerizing. Scarlet macaws soar overhead, butterflies drift through the gardens, and monkeys often make appearances in the surrounding trees, creating a magical connection with the natural world. Whether enjoying your morning coffee on the terrace, an afternoon massage overlooking the ocean, or sunset cocktails on the rooftop, every moment at Casa Blanca feels unforgettable.
The Art of Outdoor Living At the heart of the estate lies the spectacular 22-meter infinity pool, where water and sky appear to merge seamlessly with the Pacific horizon. Designed for relaxation and entertaining, Casa Blanca offers multiple outdoor spaces to enjoy every hour of the day: • Expansive terraces with panoramic ocean views • A magnificent 22-meter infinity pool • Rooftop lounge and stargazing terrace • Elegant outdoor dining spaces • A dedicated massage pavilion overlooking the ocean • Tropical gardens filled with native plants and abundant wildlife • Quiet corners perfect for yoga, meditation, reading, or simply doing nothing at all As day turns to evening, the villa transforms into something truly magical. Soft lighting, warm tropical breezes, and unforgettable sunsets create an atmosphere reminiscent of the world’s finest boutique resorts.
Refined Yet Relaxed Casa Blanca embraces a timeless style of tropical luxury, where sophisticated design and effortless comfort come together in perfect harmony. Spacious interiors open naturally to the outdoors, inviting cooling ocean breezes and spectacular views to become part of everyday life. Beautifully appointed bedrooms, elegant bathrooms, and inviting gathering spaces create an atmosphere of understated refinement while maintaining the relaxed spirit of Costa Rica. At the heart of the home is a fully equipped gourmet kitchen thoughtfully designed for those who love to cook and entertain. Whether preparing a leisurely breakfast, a family celebration, or enjoying the services of a private chef, guests will find everything they could possibly need. Premium appliances, abundant cookware, serving pieces, and thoughtful details ensure an effortless culinary experience.
Outdoor living is equally exceptional. Beneath a beautiful bamboo-covered pavilion, guests can gather around the striking black Italian marble counter and enjoy one of Casa Blanca’s signature spaces. Featuring both a premium Napoleon gas grill and the beloved Big Green Egg, the outdoor kitchen and barbecue area provide the perfect setting for long lunches, sunset cocktails, and unforgettable dinners shared with family and friends.
Modern comforts include high-speed Starlink internet, air conditioning and ceiling fans throughout, smart televisions, reliable backup power systems, and thoughtfully selected amenities designed to ensure a stay that is both luxurious and completely effortless.
A Wellness Retreat for the Soul Casa Blanca invites guests to slow down and reconnect. Begin the day with yoga as the jungle awakens around you. Enjoy a private massage overlooking the Pacific. Spend afternoons swimming beneath the tropical sun or relaxing with a book as butterflies drift through the gardens. As darkness falls, the sky comes alive with stars and the soothing sounds of nature. Life moves differently here—more slowly, more peacefully, and more beautifully.
Exceptional Personal Service Our beloved caretakers and concierge team, Eduardo and Maria, have welcomed guests to Casa Blanca for many years and are devoted to making every stay exceptional. From private chefs and in-villa massages to transportation, excursions, surf lessons, grocery stocking, and personalized recommendations, they provide discreet and attentive service that allows guests to simply relax and enjoy.
Discover the Magic of Mal País and Santa Teresa Just moments away, guests can experience world-class surfing, pristine beaches, horseback riding along the shoreline, waterfalls, sport fishing, yoga retreats, vibrant cafés, and some of Costa Rica’s finest dining. Yet many guests discover that their favorite destination is simply Casa Blanca itself.
An Experience Guests Never Forget There are places you visit, and there are places that stay with you forever. For countless guests over the years, Casa Blanca has become one of those rare places. A place of extraordinary sunsets. A place of laughter shared with family and friends. A place to celebrate life’s milestones and create memories that last a lifetime. We invite you to experience the beauty, tranquility, and magic of Casa Blanca—and discover why so many guests return year after year to this exceptional private estate above the Pacific.

The hosts were very accommodating. The home has spectacular views and is very comfortable with all the amenities. It is a hike to get there, but we made it with no problems. The home is a short drive to dining and groceries, but it also can be a resort in and of itself. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
Hi Mica. Thanks for calling me and letting me know that you pushed send before you completed your review. It was great to have you and thanks for allowing us to include your message you left us at the house with other.
From Mica and Team
"It's hard to put into words the beauty and sheer peace that Casa Blanca provides from the moment the gates open. Visually stunning both inside and out. It's obvious at every turn the hard work, thoughtfulness and love that has gone into creating this little slice of heaven. It's the perfect place to create memories with loved ones as you slowly melt into Costa Rica. Michael, Eduardo, Maria and the entire Casa Blanca Team were phenomenal. We can't thank you enough for your next level hospitality. It made our days here truly magical. If you've just arrived, you're in for a treat. Top tips from us: rent at the ATVs. You won't regret it. PS: Lots of love and tummy scratches for Lucy - the dog - she's the best. Pura Vida, The Villains."
My family and our friends (4 adults and 2 teenagers) had a great two-week stay over March Break at Villa Casa Blanca, which is located in the hills overlooking the ocean between Santa Teresa and Mal País. This was our third trip to Costa Rica, but our first time staying in the Mal País/Santa Teresa area, and we really enjoyed it.The villa is on a steep hill in the middle of the jungle, just over a kilometre from the nearest beach, and feels very private, with no one else in sight. It’s modern, with huge glass windows throughout that make you feel completely immersed in the surroundings. At the villa, you’re surrounded by lots of flora and fauna, with daily sightings of capuchin and howler monkeys exploring the trees around the property, along with macaws and other tropical birds. The 20-metre lap pool and outdoor gym area (including permanent pull-up and dip bars — something every villa should have!) got plenty of use. Other days were spent surfing, running, hiking, horseback riding, and exploring the quieter beaches along the coastline.The owner, Michael, was very responsive, usually replying within minutes on WhatsApp, and the villa staff were always available whenever we needed them for cleaning, maintenance, or the occasional meal on nights when we didn’t feel like heading out. There are also dozens of great restaurants just a short drive away.A great stay all around. We’d be very happy to return to Casa Blanca.
Absolutely beautiful property. The pool, the rooms, the view are spectacular and only rivaled by the hospitality of Michael and his property managers. I will definitely be back again.

This is our tenth or eleventh time staying at Casa Blanca and every year the owners make improvements beyond our expectations. The staff takes care of every need and makes sure we have clean towels, fresh linens and the 2 ice machines make sure you never run out, which is important

Thanks so much Chad for the kind words. Sorry the rest of your review got cut off. We did contact VRBO but there's nothing we can do. We send you all best wishes for 2025 and look forward to your return. Team Casa Blanca
This location has it all! Breath-taking views, gorgeous landscape, friendly people and helpful hosts. If you’re looking for a place to make you/your group feel secluded from the rest of world…look no further. Private gate, plenty of space for larger groups and a kitchen to easily entertain :) Costa Rica should be on any adventure lovers bucket list and Casa Blanca has to be seen to believed

Our stay in Costa Rica was highlighted by our time at Casa Blanca, an amazing home with an incredible view and great indoor and outdoor living spaces. The host Michael was extremely attentive to all of our needs and the property truly gives you the feeling you are living in a tropical paradise. If Mal Pais is your travel destination, I would highly recommend this beautiful home!

Hi Adam and Team: Thanks so much for coming to our joyous part of the world. We are glad we could make your stay comfortable and help with everything. Please come back again! Thanks, Team Casa Blanca
Amazing property in a beautiful setting. The most attentive and friendly owners and caretakers, they certainly went above and beyond in ensuring we had the best holiday, We would not hesitate to book this property again! Recommend renting four wheelers /ATVs rather than 4 wheel drive vehicle unless you can ensure one with higher clearance.
Mike, Eduardo y familia, muchas gracias!

Our first trip to the Nicoya Peninsula set the bar VERY high! Villa Casa Blanca is stunning and Mike, the owner/manager is an excellent host. The hands-on team and family that welcome guests and take care of the property are friendly, discreet, accommodating and efficient. The house and outdoor kitchen and all deck/lounging areas and huge pool were kept spotlessly clean and comfortable. We spent 3 weeks here and we loved every minute of it. Tropical birds visit the gardens & trees everyday! Sunsets for a lifetime! And Lucy is a wonderful, fun, gentle house dog who we immediately loved! I just hope we can return again and again!

Hi Bill. It was great having you and the team truly enjoyed making your trip the best possible. We are glad to have provided you a wonderful house, pool and gardens. We take great care of things here at Casa Blanca and again it was truly a pleasure. Happy travels and hope to see you again. Team Casa Blanca
We have been coming to Mal Pais/Santa Teresa for many years and we would never stay anywhere besides Casa Blanca!! The owners, Michael and Juan Carlos, are continually updating, renovating and improving everything down to the last detail. It gets better every year!! The caretakers, Eduardo, Maria and family are absolutely wonderful and we look forward to seeing Lucy the dog every year! They are all like family to us after staying at Casa Blanca for over 10 years. You will not find a better location, house, pool or view in Mal Pais/Santa Teresa.
This was our 9th trip to Casa Blanca and we have already started planning our next trip back! If you are coming to Santa Teresa/Mal Pais this is the best property! The pool, landscaping and views of the ocean are incredible. You have everything that you need at the house. It is fun to explore the area but we always look forward to coming back to Casa Blanca! The owners and caretakers of the house have become family and this has become our home away from home. It is the most special place!

Absolutely amazing property. I love the Santa Teresa/ Mal Pais area, because there is so much to do. This was the first time, however, that I found myself just relaxing at the house. The view from the pool rivals any that I've seen in the world. Michael's attention to the details was incredible, and I can't say enough about the Eduardo/ Lourdes property management team. I can't wait to go back!

We want to thank you for your review and we all at Casa Blanca enjoyed having you. We hope to see you back with us at some point in the future. Once again, thanks from all of us to you and your team.
Hands down our favorite house rental we’ve ever stayed & we travel alot. We traveled with our 3 kids (7, 11, 13yrs). The house was absolutely gorgeous, very clean, well decorated, every amenity we needed. The pool was the best- the kids loved. The views will forever stay in my memory with the ocean & sunset views and the jungle all around. So many little areas around the property. So peaceful, you really feel in heaven.Michael and staff were so kind, very fast to respond and helped all the way from the first message to check out. My only suggestion would be to find some solutions to cool down the livingroom & kitchen area as from 11- 3pm it gets very hot (& we are not big AC people) also, the house is well up the hill, way off the main & off road- you must have a good SUV.We hope to come back very soon!

Hi Danielle and Team. It was so great to have you and your family. Your appreciation as architects meant a lot to us. We were glad to assist you through your stay and we do look forward to welcoming you back. As for the heat, it was exceptionally hot weather that week. We hope you used the cooling fans in the living room but perhaps you didn’t realize you can add ice to them to cool down more easily. They have paved the road up to the Villa. As you know we are just 1km from the main road. We are grateful to our community to join hands to make the road better and better. See you again soon.
We have been staying at Casa Blanca for 9 years and we would never stay anywhere else! It is incredibly relaxing and quiet but Santa Teresa and Mal Pais are a very short drive from the house for incredible restaurants, grocery stores and shopping. Everything at Casa Blanca is top-notch and extremely well taken care of. The landscaping, jungle views and ocean views are beyond beautiful! Michael, Juan Carlos, Eduardo, Maria, Marvin and Junior have all become family to us❤️. And Lucy is the best dog and such a joy to have at the house.

This was our sixth February spent at Casa Blanca and we plan to come back every February for as long as Mike and Juan Carlos will have us! You think it can’t possibly get any better but every year it does! This year we were amazed by all of the new gardens, plants and fruit trees
surrounding the house. Mike and Juan Carlos are incredible and gracious hosts and Eduardo and his family take care of the guests as if they were family! We definitely have a home and family in Cost Rica that we can’t wait to get back to every February!

We arrived back to Casa Blanca. It amazes us each time we return. The Villa simply gets better each year with new surprises. And the garden is truly a botanical experience which attracts so many wonderful animals, birds and other wild life. Magic. After a week, we feel blissful and ready for 2024. Thanks Maria and Eduardo. Team Hansen
This was our sixth February at Casa Blanca and it was absolutely incredible as always! Michael and Juan Carlos (the owners) are an absolute joy to work with! They are very accommodating and always on top of communication. Eduardo (the house caretaker) and his family are exceptional hosts. We were sad to leave them at the end of our trip and they honestly feel like part of our family. This gorgeous house and the surrounding property have all of the amenities and beauty that you could hope for and more. We cannot wait to return next February. Casa Blanca, Santa Teresa and Malpais have really become our home away from home!

Thanks so much Jill. We love having you and are proud that each year we make our Villa better and better to accommodate you and Chad. You're the best and we will always be there for you. All of Team Casa Blanca!
Our stay at Casa Blanca was magical! This property was the centerpiece of an unforgettable trip; a private slice of heaven. The moment you arrive you step into a secret botanical garden in a private rainforest oasis. This property in the hills offers breathtaking 360-degree views of ocean & rainforest. It is peaceful, secluded & only a short minutes' drive from the center of town. You get the best of both worlds: total privacy & easy access to all amenities, restaurants & beaches. Relaxing in the pool we saw geckos, frogs, toucans, howler monkeys & macaws. Watching butterflies dance around the garden while breathing in Jasmine & Ylang-ylang was mesmerizing. Viewing gorgeous sunsets while the jungle came alive around us is an experience I’ll never forget. The home is impeccable & equipped with everything you need. The open floor plan sets the vibe for ultimate relaxation; the perfect balance of luxury & nature. The rooms are spacious & every room offers stunning views. Waking up to that scenery each day is a privilege. Huge thank you to our hosts, Mike & JC, who were wonderful from start to finish. Communication was prompt & they were helpful with suggestions for activities & dining. They truly care about their guests' experience.Thank you to Maria & Eduardo, who keep the property in immaculate condition. They were there if we needed anything, but masterful at being invisible when we didn't. If you’re looking for a private sanctuary, this is the paradise you’ve dreamt of.

Unbelievable experience starting at 1st request
I cannot say enough about what a great experience my family had while visiting Costa Rica for our first time. From my first inquiry about possible renting Casa Blanca to now, the owner, Mike, has provided so much information which made our 20th Anniversary trip in Costa Rica a fantastic experience. We loved every part of the house especially the infinity pool. It was our private getaway beautifully situated on a hill overlooking the pacific, surrounded by a tropical paradise. Now that we've found this wonderful part of the world, I'm already trying to find time to make our way back. Thank you for sharing your home with us...we LOVED it!

Thanks so much for this message. Davie, Lisbeth, Juan and I enjoyed helping you through you journey and we hope you journey back again to see us. Have a wonderful 2015. All the best from Team Casa Blanca
We have stayed at Casa Blanca several times and each year gets better! This year the pool has totally been retiled (beautiful infinity pool) and there is an additional pellet ice maker, along with the large cube icemaker that never goes empty! The caretakers Eduardo and Maria will cater to your every need and I highly recommend having them make dinner or afternoon drinks for you (ask for the passionfruit margarita). Also ask Eduardo to book a massage under the cantilevered cliff side canopy overlooking the ocean. Casa Blanca is incredibly safe (as is Mal Pais), with a security gate, non-obtrusive fencing around the property and our favorite security guard-Lucy the house dog. She will keep the iguanas away from the pool and is gentle and sweet as can be. Words cannot express how great this paradise is!

Thanks so much Jill for the wonderful review and again thanks for spending your holiday with us. Team Casa Blanca
The home is truly stunning with breathtaking ocean views from the moment you walk in the front door! The floor to ceiling glass doors allow you to enjoy unobstructed ocean and jungle views as you look out over the full length horizon pool (which is perfect for lap swimming)! The yoga chalet and wind chimes create a peaceful environment in which to mediate and practice yoga. You have complete privacy to enjoy the ocean views from the outdoor showers, too, while listening to the sounds of exotic birds and monkeys and watching beautiful butterflies and hummingbirds fly around the tropical flowers in the lush gardens. Their restaurant recommendations were spot on too, as we particularly enjoyed Katana and Koji's for dinner and The Bakery for breakfast. We will definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a truly "top of the world" experience in Santa Teresa/Mal Pais.

OMG. You are all the best. What privilege to provide you with the best of Santa Teresa and Mal Pais as you traverse your journey to find a place to buy. We loved having you and our team loved having you there. All the best from JC, Mike, Lourdes and Eduardo
We have been staying at Casablanca for the last nine years and can't wait to come back. Eduardo and family that care for the house make sure we are comfortable and well fed! When leaving the house for a 5 minute trip to either Mal Pais or Santa Theresa (both incredible), we are always excited to get back and enjoy the long, infinity pool overlooking the ocean for sunset. The rooftop has 360 degree views of the jungle and ocean and is great for stargazing.
Other items that some travelers take for granted are plumbing (water is incredible out of the tap- reverse osmosis ), lighting and great air-conditioning. The Sonos sound system is a new addition this year, as the owners are constantly updating amenities.
We have traveled all over the world for the last 30 years and this by far our favorite warm weather destination.
Thank you for everything!

An architecturally stunning villa just minutes from the beach with views to die for. We have rented villas in Santa Teresa and Mal Pais and this if by far the best. Michael/Juan and the amazing team of Lourdes/Eduardo looked after every detail to help us enjoy the most of our trip. The rooms are spacious, air-conditioned and the kitchen has everything you would ever need. Not to mention the outdoor BBQ with Green Egg and Gas BBQ. One of the most enjoyable things for us was that the villa is completely private without any neighbors …. only the sounds of the jungle and the waves from the beach. There are many private areas around the property to enjoy - pool lounge, day bed, massage cabin and more. The owners clearly take pride in their jungle garden. We would definitely recommend this modern villa for anyone who really wants to get away and enjoy vistas with amazing sunsets from the infinity pool - a lap pool at that. We enjoyed cooking with Lourdes and leaning new recipes - an amazing cook. We will definitely be coming back.

Hello Team:
It's been a dream to help you with your stay as always. We greatly appreciate your support and we are looking to having you back again soon.
Team Casa Blanca
You will not be disappointed with this property. I spent a long time researching for the perfect house for our guys’ trip to Costa Rica, and my whole crew agreed they have never been at a better vacation rental. Luxurious house with every amenity, including strong wifi, Bluetooth music speakers, tons of towels, dishes, etc. Incredible view, pool and privacy. We were able to get loud at times without upsetting neighbours, because there aren’t any! All beds had top of the line comfort.
The owner is very helpful with arranging the trip and the caretaker, who lives nearby but not on the property was available whenever needed.
You need a 4wd vehicle to get up the 5 minute driveway. It is steep and rocky at points. Consider it part of the experience!
If you are booking somewhere in Mal Pais/Santa Teresa, this rental has to be your first choice.

About the host
Hosted by Michael Solinger and Juan Carlos Alvarez - Owners
Mal Pais attracted us after one visit. The peacefulness, the people, the ocean vistas, the long empty beaches... and the list goes on.
Mal Pais became the obvious choice to escape from work and enter into a paradise where one can reconnect with oneself and enjoy life without the daily stresses of living in a major city.
Why they chose this property
The moment we stepped onto the 'plantel', we knew this was it: amazing beach vistas, cool breezes, and close to the National Park. We wanted to find a location that wouldn't be overtaken by future developments, that would retain the beauty of the jungle, that would respect nature whilst building something eco-friendly.
We wanted to create the dream home in paradise with amazing vistas. We wanted to create a modern home focusing on concrete and glass with soft touches of natural teak wood. We wanted to create a space to enjoy the magnificent views from this property: the beaches, the jungle and Cabo Blanco National Park. More importantly. we wanted to create a home for our guests that would offer all modern conveniences (screen doors, sealed rooms, air-con, modern appliances, fantastic lighting and a 22m Lap Pool for exercise, Massage/Yoga Cabina for escape and relaxation).
We extended this 3 acre garden so that those who stay with us can escape to private areas and enjoy the sound of the waves and the jungle with the many animals and birds.
What makes this property unique
Sun, sea, pool, views, beaches! What more do you need? This Villa provides you complete tranquility with amazing vistas in your own private Paradise. It offers you a kitchen/dining experience with the most amazing views. The kitchen is an excellent space to cook, entertain family and friends whilst enjoying the beach sound and views.
There are many places on the grounds to enjoy (Massage Cabina, Fruit Garden, Private Jungle Garden, Nature Trail and more).
