About this property

Private Ocean/Jungle/Pool View Gated Villa- walk to Beach & Samara Village

Peaceful, private, & stylish Villa (built in 2016) with immaculate lush grounds in a safe, gated community adjacent to the small beach village of Samara. Each of the 3 bedrooms has an in-suite bathroom, an AC unit, sliding glass doors to the outside lawn, a large closet, and blackout blinds. Enjoy the 8x40 ft lap pool while enjoying amazing 360 views of Samara Bay, the Pacific Ocean, the surrounding jungle and gardens, and a dark night sky. Comfortable beds with imported toppers and quality linens. A/C in all 3 bedrooms and living room. Five-minute walk to market, coffee, grocery, bakery, restaurants, and shopping. The food scene in Samara is impressive offering a variety of local and foreign cuisine. The Villa is an 8 minute walk to the beach.

Samara Beach is about 3 miles long, so it offers an easy opportunity for morning or evening 5-mile round-trip beach walks. Day and night jungle hikes, zip line tours, and other jungle adventures are available by through local guide shops. Samara Bay is safe and swimmable for all ages, with wildlife-filled tidal pools to explore and snorkel. Other water activities include ocean kayaking, surf lessons, boogie board and surfboard rentals, ocean fishing and tours. An excursion to Isla Chora by a local guide can be enjoyed by all (or kayak there yourself). If you are just a beach bunny, there are areas of free lawn chairs and areas where chairs and a tent can be rented for the day. 100% of the beach is safe and free enjoy with food and beverage service available at beaches in front of the restaurants. Or, rental a car or ATV to explore one of the many incredible and more private beaches to the north and south of Samara. The neighborhoods around the Villa and Samara village are safe to explore, including at night.

The villa property offers expansive outdoor space with sounds of birds and ocean waves. High-speed Wifi. Lots of free parking. Wildlife visits regularly (see more details below). The Spanish Language School (Intercultural) and several surf schools are a 8-minute walk. This property is our part-year home, so it is well-equipped, well-cared for, and comfortable.

The Villa is located on a hilltop above Samara (hense the incredible views). The paved driveway is very steep at the start. The walk up the drive takes 2-3 minutes. It is a great motivator to jump in the pool when you reach the top! That said, walking up this driveway is not recommended for individuals with physical challenges, while pulling luggage, or while pushing a baby stroller. We recommended securing a car or golf car for individuals with these circumstances. Once at the Villa, the surrounding property is all flat. The home is level without steps.

Car, ATV, Golf cart, E-bike, and bicycle rentals are available daily in Samara. Some companies deliver.

Clean, quiet place
Newer home nestled away from town but still very close-in. Absolute quiet which is important to me. Very clean house, very nice pool, beautiful view.

About the host

Hosted by My Property Management- Ludo

Host profile image
We are the host of a few unique properties that we travel between. We are working professionals with four young adult daughters. These are our homes that we open up part-time to guests. We enjoy sharing our special places with you and offer a 5-star experience with location, service, accommodations, privacy, security, linens, products, and attention to detail.

Costa Rica is a unique place that brings us tranquility and an opportunity to enjoy marine and land environments. The residents are the nicest you will find anywhere! The food is healthy, delicious, readily available, and inexpensive! But travel is cumbersome as many (most?) roads are not paved. Dust, insects, humidity, power outages, and heat are inescapable. Please prepare for these in advance of your stay to ensure a safe and relaxing stay in Costa Rica!

Why they chose this property

We love the small surf village of Samara! The Villa is just on the edge of the village, a few minutes walk to coffee, markets, restaurants, bars, and the Intercultura Language School. No need for a rental car. The people are extremely friendly, the beaches wonderful, the ocean and rain are warm, and there are countless excellent restaurants with international cuisine (including local Tico, Italian, French, and Sushi). If you do have a rental car, there are countless nearby beaches and other small villages to explore. Car, ATV, Golf cart, E-bike, and bicycle rentals are available daily in Samara.

What makes this property unique

Our Villa is so close to town, but not in town. You can hear the ocean waves crashing. It is surrounded by jungle and wildlife but still has ocean views. It is located in a 4-home gated community and is very safe and secure. The wildlife viewing is excellent.

For us, two things stand out about Villa Del Cielo.

1) The first is that the Villa offers the privacy and feel of a home in the jungle while offering easy access to a beach village. You get the best of both experiences!
The Villa is very private (spacious grounds, gated community, lots of vegetation) so you feel like you are in the jungle, but you are just a few minutes walk to town, so it is easy to access shopping and food and the atmosphere of a Costa Rican village.

2) The second awesome thing about the Villa is the amazing opportunities for wildlife and night sky viewing! If you watch and listen you will not be disappointed. On the property live a nesting pairs of pesotes, ducks, and inguanas. The monkeys pass through daily (easy to miss and you will hear leaves rustling before you see them). The bird watching is outstanding. There is a variety of resident wildlife (i.e., birds, iguanas, geckos, caotes, raccoons, lizards) and passing-through wildlife (i.e., monkeys, fruit bats, etc). The pool lights have been disabled as they attracted bats. In their place is outdoor ambiance lighting that is very romantic. The patio is enjoyable for cocktails, cards, or a swim in the pool late into the evening.

More details on the Villa:

Felix, the gardener, attends to the pool and garden daily (except Sundays). He quietly arrives first thing in the morning to have the pool ready for your morning swim! Gardening occurs late morning intermittently throughout the weekdays. These services are essential to maintain the pool and property and cannot be discontinued during guest stays.
