Playa Matapalo has an abundance of wildlife including monkeys that can be seen on the property twice a day, in the early morning hours & just before sunset, you can always find a sloth or 2 hanging around in the trees on this beautiful jungle beach, & there are also scarlet macaw parrots, toucans, Lora green parrots, iguanas, and endless species of tropical birds for bird-watching on Playa Matapalo.

Our lush tropical flower gardens & grounds are a beauty to behold & we have many tropical fruit trees including several Mango trees, Cashew tree, tropical fruit Cas tree, Banana & Plantains, Central American Water Apple tree, numerous species of palm trees & more. If you would like to see Mother Nature at her finest Slice of Paradise is the place for you. Playa Matapalo is like having your own private beach all to yourself. You can walk the beach for miles on this velvety sand beach and will never step on a rock & you will probably only see a few local Ticos (Costa Ricans) fishing with a hand line. If you go for a beach walk at low tide you won't have to worry about finding your way back because you can simple follow your own footsteps in the sand that will lead you back to Slice Of Paradise. The ocean water temperature at Playa Matapalo is very warm & stays around 78 to 85 degrees the whole year around.

Slice Of Paradise on Playa Matapalo is located on the South Central Pacific Coast only 25 miles south of Manuel Antonio National Park and10 miles North of the surfing village of Dominical.

Any tour you would like to do is just a short drive from your bungalow, and we work directly with all the tour companies in the area & will book any tour you would like to do for no charge. You could never stay at Slice Of Paradise and have enough days to do all the things you would like to do or see, there is just too much beauty & wildlife to see on this beach and the surrounding area. There is a bar, restaurant & grocery store within walking distance on the beach road from your bungalow, or you can walk10 minutes on the beach to get an authentic typical Costa Rican breakfast, lunch, or dinner & do your grocery shopping all in one stop at A-Kachete Bar, Restaurant, & Super Mercado . Matapalo has several other good restaurants & markets for doing grocery shopping. For a gourmet meal you will want to check out The Matapalo Supper Club just a 10 minute walk on the beach road from your bungalow. If you are a fan of seafood you will want to eat at The Langosta Feliz Restaurant (The Happy Lobster) for some of the freshest & best seafood in the area.

Be sure to catch the sunsets every evening on the beach. Playa Matapalo is known for its colorful sunsets, & you will be able to watch the sun disappear into the Pacific Ocean. Everyone congregates on the beach to watch the beautiful sunsets that we get every evening. They're a thing of beauty so don't forget to take your camera with you.

*The rate for the studio bungalow for 2 people is $125.00 per night.

Our stay at this studio apartment was just what we hoped it would be. The location alone made it incredibly special - we were literally steps away from a quiet, secluded beach that felt like it belonged only to us. Being close to Manuel Antonio National Park was a huge bonus. We spent time exploring, and were amazed by the abundance of wildlife. I would recommend taking a guided tour - it really enhanced the experience and helped us appreciate everything we were seeing. Ron, the owner, was a great resource. He was friendly, approachable, and offered many helpful tips. My husband and I left with fantastic memories.

Location location location! A short walk across the leas travelled road and you are at one of the most beautiful unpopulated beaches in Costa Rica. The hosts are very gracious and helpful. We had everything in our place to make ourselves breakfast and meals. Really great restaurants nearby Matapalo. The room was clean and my favorite amenity was the outdoor shower after the beach! Well, maybe a close second was the relaxing on the hammocks on the gazebo with the ceiling fan creating a gentle breeze. We were greeted by Capuchin monkeys more than once on the banana trees outside our window. Amazing place and I highly recommend.

The property is beautiful, full of tropical plants and flowers. The gazebo was a great hangout to keep cool. The area is full of wildlife and birds and the beach goes on for miles. The beach is just a short walk from the property. Ron and Gisel were wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely return.
