Villa La Macha

The Villa and Guest House are perched high above the Pacific, with ever present sea breezes and sounds of surf crashing below. Our beach (Playa la Macha), which is usually deserted, is just a 10-minute walk from the Villa. Ours is the only residence in Manuel Antonio with a cove all to itself and one of the few close enough to the water to hear the surf crashing against the rocks.

The views of the ocean and sunset from the Villa are breathtaking. Wildlife and tropical flowers abound on our property and in the surrounding rainforest. Monkeys, countless birds, and an occasional sloth are regular visitors to nearby trees and are easily spotted from the Villa or our terraces and swimming pool.

Villa La Macha is located in one of Costa Rica’s most beautiful coastal areas, Quepos and Manuel Antonio. An almost endless string of secluded coves and tropical beaches and the charming, well-supplied town of Quepos are minutes away. Five miles down the road is a jewel of this ecologically sensitive country, Manuel Antonio National Park. The waters offshore offer some of the best marlin and sailfish sport fishing in the world.

Villa La Macha is handsomely furnished in teak and natural woods and provides a beautiful home for families, small wedding parties, and groups of friends to share.We live in the house six weeks per year and have continuously maintained it to our very high standards. We have added all the amenities you could want for a perfect vacation, including a library of 150 of our favorite books

The Villa is a luxurious and tranquil base for a wide range of activities available nearby, including swimming and sunning, world-class deep sea fishing, rainforest exploration, river rafting, golf, hiking, horseback riding, or just plain relaxing and unwinding( enjoying what Costa Ricans call Pura Vida, the pure life. Rates and availability vary with the season, which is determined by the weather, although the area is beautiful year round.

Our staff provides full housekeeping and laundry services daily and will cook authentic Costa Rican dishes for you, or whatever you most enjoy. Fresh fish caught daily, quality meats and delicious tropical fruits are plentiful in the local markets.
