About this property
Luxury Beachside 7Br Retreat in Peninsula Papagayo
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-size bunk beds 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.
We offer a full concierge service to make every aspect of your stay seamless and stress-free. From the moment you book, our team is available to assist with everything you might need—airport transfers, private chefs, in-villa spa treatments, restaurant reservations, and curated local experiences. Whether you’re planning adventure excursions or want everything arranged so you can relax and enjoy the moment, we handle the details so you don’t have to. The goal is simple: to ensure your time here feels effortless, personalized, and truly unforgettable.
Villa Arcos del Mar is far more than a luxury vacation residence. It is a private estate where architectural beauty, cultural influences, exceptional space, and the natural splendor of Peninsula Papagayo come together to create a truly distinctive experience.
Whether reserved as an intimate 5-bedroom retreat or as the complete 7-bedroom private compound, Villa Arcos del Mar offers an extraordinary setting for families and friends to gather, reconnect, and experience the very best of Costa Rica in privacy and style.

Reviewer Comments:
We just returned from an unforgettable stay at Casa Arcos del Mar on the Papagayo Peninsula — a dream vacation for our large family. The home is spectacular: beautifully designed with sweeping ocean views, luxurious bedrooms, and multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces that made it easy to relax, connect, or find quiet moments on your own.Nestled between the renowned Four Seasons and Ritz-Carlton resorts, the villa offers access to the world-class amenities of both — from pristine beaches and a championship golf course to fine dining, tennis, and spa services. The villa has a unique staircase access to the best private beach with the amazing Prieta Beach Club and the world class amenities of fitness, yoga, spa, restaurants and all water activities.The private chef was a true highlight. Every meal was fresh, creative, and absolutely delicious — dining at the villa became one of our favorite parts of the day. We also loved the infinity pool — all with panoramic ocean views. Morning workouts and evening swims felt like pure luxury.The concierge and staff were outstanding, helping us plan everything from excursions to in-villa experiences with ease.Casa Arcos del Mar delivers the perfect blend of privacy, five-star service, and natural beauty. It’s rare to find a home that offers this level of comfort and access in such an extraordinary setting. We can’t wait to return.
