Welcome to Villa Arcos del Mar, an extraordinary private sanctuary nestled within the prestigious Peninsula Papagayo, where timeless architecture, breathtaking ocean surroundings, and refined tropical living come together to create an unforgettable Costa Rican escape.

Set within Peninsula Papagayo’s spectacular 1,400-acre private resort community, this exceptional estate offers approximately 12,100 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, providing an impressive sense of privacy, comfort, and effortless indoor-outdoor living.

Inspired by the architectural traditions of Morocco and Southern Spain, Villa Arcos del Mar is distinguished by graceful arches, warm textures, handcrafted details, and an extraordinary collection of furnishings and decorative pieces sourced from Morocco, Thailand, India, and Central America. The result is a residence with a character entirely its own—sophisticated yet inviting, luxurious yet deeply connected to its tropical surroundings.

Villa Arcos del Mar offers the unique flexibility of being rented as either a 5-bedroom or 7-bedroom residence, making it an exceptional choice for both intimate gatherings and larger groups.
The original five-bedroom residence includes four beautifully appointed bedrooms within the main home, along with a detached guest house offering additional privacy, its own kitchenette, and a private bathroom.
For guests seeking the complete estate experience, a newly built three-story private casita expands the property to seven bedrooms. This sophisticated addition features two beautiful ocean-view suites, as well as a state-of-the-art private gym and media room.

In its full seven-bedroom configuration, the villa comfortably accommodates up to 20 guests. Six bedrooms feature king-size beds, while the specially designed younger guests’ room includes two full over queen-size bunk beds, one full over full bunk bed and two single trundle beds.
Please note that all rates displayed on this listing are based on the full 7-bedroom configuration. Smaller groups interested in renting the villa as a 5-bedroom residence are invited to contact us for a personalized quote.

One of Villa Arcos del Mar’s most exceptional features is its privileged location near the coastline. Enjoy direct access to Prieta Beach, placing the beauty of Costa Rica’s Pacific coast within easy reach, while the exclusive Prieta Beach Club is approximately a five-minute walk from the residence.

After a day by the ocean, return to your private retreat and unwind beside the villa’s expansive swimming pool, thoughtfully designed with a shallow area ideal for relaxation and a convenient wet bar for effortless entertaining. The spacious surrounding terrace provides multiple areas for gathering, sunbathing, or simply enjoying the spectacular tropical setting.

At the heart of the residence, a fully equipped kitchen with chef-grade appliances provides an exceptional setting for preparing everything from relaxed family breakfasts to gourmet dinners.
For memorable evenings outdoors, the dedicated barbecue and al fresco dining area is surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens, creating an inviting atmosphere for long dinners, celebrations, and time together under the Costa Rican sky.
Throughout the estate, multiple outdoor seating areas provide different perspectives from which to appreciate the lush landscape, tropical gardens, and peaceful surroundings.

Modern comforts have been seamlessly incorporated throughout the property. High-speed internet extends across the residence and into the garden areas, allowing guests to remain connected without compromising the feeling of being immersed in a private tropical sanctuary.

Villa Arcos del Mar also enjoys convenient proximity to the world-class amenities and dining experiences of Peninsula Papagayo, including the Four Seasons Resort Peninsula Papagayo, while the international airport is approximately 45 minutes away, allowing for a comfortable arrival and departure experience.
