"Top 10 Villas ” Dominical Costa Rica 2020

The current bed arrangements consist of A Large King bed in the "Jefe's Master Suite, a Queen Bedroom and a King Bedroom (with the option for a small twin bed best suited for a child).

Villa La Luna is only minutes from sparkling beaches, world-class surfing, mouth watering restaurants, secluded swimming holes, "Tico" style sodas/restaurants and one of Costa Rica’s two marine national parks. Conveniently located between the towns of Dominical, Dominicalito, and Uvita within the trendy neighborhood of Escalaras, Villa La Luna is an easy 3 1/2 hour drive from the international airport in San Jose (SJO). (Seasonally, you can catch a 15 minute flight from SJO on the local airline – SANSA – that will bring you within 30 minutes of
the villa.)

Newly constructed in November 2015, Villa La Luna is stunning! Pass through entry gates, open the two over-sized, hand crafted wooden front doors and step up to one of the most dramatic, white water ocean views in all of Costa Rica. Yes, including the world famous "whales tail" located just off the coast of Marino Ballena National Park. Imagine lounging by the pool and glancing up to see a humpback whale breaching just beyond the rock formation named for these magnificent creatures! After you catch your breath, settle into your 3,650 square foot retreat, a "Tropical Modern Masterpiece" surrounded by gardens and lush jungle.

The villa is perfectly placed at 1250 feet above sea level. This elevation allows for a milder temperature and ocean breezes that make Villa La Luna a perfect vacation spot year round....even (especially) in the green season!

Villa La Luna invites seamless indoor-outdoor living. Inside, the open floor plan living area offers diverse seating and a Large Flat Screen TV equipped with NETFLIX. The fiber optic internet is capable of streaming Netflix on your devices as well throughout the house. The spacious gourmet kitchen features a custom cedar island clad in cascading white quartz, stainless steel appliances and teak dining stools.
But the best of Costa Rican living and entertaining occurs outdoors. At Villa La Luna, the living room opens up with "Europa Style" accordion folding glass doors to the outdoor patio where lounge chairs overlook the 30 foot long, infinity edge "Bali Stone" pool. The patio also includes a commercial grade stainless steel lighted outdoor kitchen with built-in four burner gas grill, wet bar, wine fridge and prep sink, complemented by a custom-made Guanacaste dining table that comfortably seats eight. On the lawn beyond the pool is a fire pit where you can gather and share stories into the evening.

Villa La Luna has 3 bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, and an additional half bath adjacent to the living area. Each bedroom has teak floors, pillow top mattresses, A/C, and unobstructed ocean and jungle views from the sliding doors. The master suite is enormous with a super comfy king bed and a large walk-in closet. The indoor/outdoor shower opens to the jungle and a magnificent view of the South Pacific, welcoming the sounds of nature and the refreshing ocean breezes.
The surrounding jungle is filled with tropical ornamentals and exotic wildlife . You will share the neighborhood with toucans, sloths, turkeys, anteaters, monkeys, iguanas, colorful tropical birds, white tailed hawks and more. (Approximately 20% of the earth’s species reside in Costa Rica, even though the country represents less than 1% of the earth's land mass.)

Optional Services: Housekeepers will come to clean in the middle of your stay if your stay lasts 7 days or longer. Additional maid services can be arranged for an additional fee of $30 per day. Villa La Luna also offers an amazing chef who is available for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Let Chef Royner and his team cook for you and you will understand why he is a favorite of our guests!
Security: Villa La Luna is equipped with a safe to store your passports and valuables (including laptops). Around the exterior perimeter of the house there are infrared/high definition cameras, motion detectors, and a state-of-the-art alarm system for our clients’ peace of mind. All cameras are outside the villa, and are positioned in such a way as to never intrude on our guests’ privacy. The cameras are there for everyone's safety/security and are a requirement of Costa Rican insurance companies.
Activities: Your very own, complimentary concierge, Juli, can help you select from among the many things to do here in Costa Rica. Juli will arrange fishing trips, snorkeling, jungle tours, white water rafting, canopy tours, horse back excursions to swimming holes and water falls, whale/dolphin watching, spa services, private chef, grocery deliveries and more to ensure that your stay at Villa la Luna is unforgettable. Your activities might include visiting the Hacienda Baru Wildlife Refuge, taking the Osa Mountain canopy tour, seeing Nauyaca Falls on horseback, strolling down a secluded beach, or surfing. Just about every type of excursion and adventure tour that Costa Rica offers is within 30 minutes of the villa. The Alturas Wildlife Sanctuary is just 500 meters north of Villa La Luna, and there are numerous walking trails nearby.
Dining: There are many excellent dining options in Dominical, Uvita, or Ojochal, described by Lonely Planet as the region’s “culinary epicenter”. If you prefer to dine at home but want to indulge yourself, arrange for Chef Royner to prepare your evening meal (see Optional Services). For groceries, the market in Dominical has almost everything you might need. For more variety, there is a bigger supermarket (BM) in Uvita. A wide range of stores can be found in San Isidro El General, the largest city in the region, which is about 40 minutes away.
Villa La Luna harmoniously blends indoor and outdoor living, maintaining a superior level of comfort enhanced by the natural surroundings. Treat your family and friends to this beautiful villa....paradise is closer than you ever imagined!

Dream vacation home!
We loved staying at Villa La Luna. An incredible house with a spectacular view! It has everything you might need for an enjoyable stay and the area is so special. We visited the beach and whale’s tail at low tide, which was very cool. We enjoyed the wonderful birding from the back yard and the kids loved the pool. Having Sibu nearby is a plus as well! Property manager was super helpful and nice. Made everything very easy. We’d love to come back! Thank you so much for a terrific stay!

Relaxing getaway
We really enjoyed our stay. The place was exactly as described. We had some minor issues, but everything was immediately addressed by the house manager. We were greeted upon arrival and communication was great. Be prepared for a rough ride up the mountain to the house definitely should have four-wheel-drive. One thing to note there is no air conditioning in the main part of the house only in the bedrooms.

Senior/Graduation Trip
Owner met us there at check in to explain how everything worked. Very responsive to any questions and concerns. Gorgeous house, scenery, wildlife. We were in the jungle...so I get it that there were bugs (but the tiny ants on the kitchen counter drive me nuts all week!). Definitely need a 4WD to get to the house. Food everywhere we went was phenomenal. Ziplining and horse back riding to the waterfall was a hit for the "kids".

Perfect privacy in the (not rainy) early rainy season
We enjoyed this property! Gorgeous house and view. Everything in it was perfect. Would be great for 3 couples, or a family with kids who will share beds. Hosts had lots of great recommendations. You definitely need a tip top SUV or 4 wheel drive to get to the house. Really glad we stayed here and not in very busy Manuel Antonio. Loved restaurant Scalia nearby, LaParcela (on the beach), and Fuego Brewing. Mama Toucan’s more pricey that Whole Foods - hit a market in one of the larger towns!

Great stay at an AMAZING property!
I booked this property for clients, a multigenerational family of five. They absolutely loved everything about the Villa and the location. The owner was incredible to work with and the staff for meals, cleaning and spa treatments were outstanding. There are only positives to say about this experience.

Why they chose this property

I manage three other rentals in the area and when I was offered to help with Villa La Luna I jumped at the chance. My mother has been serving as the concierge coordinator for the villa for over five years and I have always been an admirer of this special villa. I'm living the dream just to be able to host visitors from around the globe and giving people the chance to experience one of the most stunning settings in the world. I can't say enough about Costa Rica, the region of Dominical/Uvita, and Villa La Luna...

What makes this property unique

You won't beat the combination of modern design, world class view and infinity pool, and easy access to all the best activities this area of Costa Rica has to offer. There are two restaurants, a cafe, and a convenience store just minutes away.
