A villa with three lives

One home that fits the working parent, the playful kid, and the weekend surfer.

Villa Hermosa sits in the hills above Playa Hermosa, a small surf town on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific coast. The deck opens onto a curved private pool, a hammock, and an unbroken jungle view - the kind of place where 7 a.m. coffee and 6 p.m. sunset feel like the same day.

Inside, every bedroom has air conditioning, a real bed, and a workspace. The master room is set up for a full work week: ergonomic chair, adjustable standing/sitting desk, and quiet enough that meetings sound like meetings. Bring the laptop and the kids - both will be at home here.

You’re five minutes from Jaco for groceries, restaurants, and nightlife, ninety minutes from San Jose airport, and a short walk from one of the country’s most consistent surf breaks.
