Beachfront Solar Villa · Private Pool · Rooftop Bar · Paddle Out to Backwash
Wake up to the sunrise over the Golfo Dulce, watch scarlet macaws fly past your window, and paddle out to the Backwash surf break straight from the garden. Ocean View Surf Villa is a 3-story, fully off-grid beachfront home in Cabo Matapalo, on the tip of the Osa Peninsula, the place National Geographic called the most biologically intense on Earth.
THE HOUSE (sleeps 11, 3 bedrooms, 3 en-suite bathrooms)
Ground floor: open-plan kitchen, dining and living area that flows onto the patio and your private plunge pool, plus one bedroom with en-suite bath.
Second floor: two identical master suites, each with a private bathroom and the same near-180° ocean view.
Rooftop terrace: BBQ grill, a long table for 10, a bar counter, hammocks and a hang-out lounge. This is where you'll have dinner while the moon rises over the water.
Every bedroom has a desk or work nook, and the whole house is covered by Starlink Wi-Fi.
OFF-GRID AND ECO BY DESIGN
The villa runs 100% on solar power with spring water and recycling. Ceiling and standing fans keep every bedroom, the living room, dining area and terrace cool (there is no air conditioning; the ocean breeze does the work).
WILDLIFE AT THE DOOR
Scarlet macaws, howler and spider monkeys, agoutis, coatis, raccoons and hawks visit the large garden daily. During whale season you can spot humpbacks from the house.
SURF AND BEACHES
Backwash (intermediate): paddle out from the beach in front of the house. Pan Dulce: 10-minute walk. Matapalo: 15 minutes. The beach in front of the villa appears at low tide; surfboard rental can be arranged.
GETTING HERE AND AROUND
About 45 minutes from Puerto Jiménez town and its airstrip. Several restaurants within a 10-minute drive; the nearest supermarket is in Puerto Jiménez, so we recommend stocking up before you arrive. Corcovado National Park (Carate entrance) is 1.5 hours away. A 4x4 is strongly recommended.
HOSTED BY OSA CONCIERGE
I've managed hotels for 15+ years and lived on the Osa for 7. Our local team can arrange private chefs, mid-stay cleaning, transfers, surf lessons and tours (extra cost). Ask us anything, we know this coast well.
GOOD TO KNOW
Check-in 3 pm, check-out 11 am. Minimum 2 nights. Children welcome. No pets, no events. Smoking outdoors only. Quiet hours after 10 pm, this is a wildlife area and a peaceful neighborhood.
