One of Jaco's most celebrated private estates, this 6-bedroom villa sits steps from the Pacific and delivers the kind of white-glove experience most Costa Rica rentals only promise.

Unwind in hammocks, or get adventurous with our provided surfboards and boogie boards. Our expansive terrace, designed for relaxation, sets the perfect stage for Costa Rican sunsets.

LIVING SPACES
Enjoy two spacious living areas with high ceilings and resort-style furnishings.

Villa Antigua was nothing short of amazing. From the bedroom layouts to the astounding common areas to the gorgeous pool, it was an astounding experience. The entire property - inside and out - was pristine. The landscaping was breathtaking. My multigenerational group of 11 loved it from the second we arrived until the moment we had to say goodbye. In addition, the concierge services came in very handy in terms of setting up a private chef, figuring out which activities to book, and arranging for transportation. Finally, the location. As described in the listing, the Villa is literally a 3 minute walk to Jaco beach. Just unbeatable.

The location is ideal - just a short walk to the beach and private enough to feel secluded.Special thanks to Maura the concierge who arranged transportation and activities for us.

Beautiful Castle!

This house is amazing! We all felt like we were living in a castle. The staff was great to have around, they were all very helpful. Maura the house manager was very responsive and saved us from a possible disaster by tracking down a taxi cab that one of us left our wallet in. Over all wonderful experience!

Great vacation with memories of a lifetime

The property, Maura, and her staff exceeded all of our expectations. We felt like royalty. Your hard work and dedication made our visit to Costa Rica a great success. And was greatly appreciated. The location was excellent, on the south end of Jaco, with a short walk to the beach and a short drive to restaurants and everything else we wanted to experience. I cannot thank you enough for all of your help.

Perfect Retreat

Classic Architecture, design, and layout of Villa Antigua is elegantly unique, well-maintained, and comfortable. We were 9 people (6 adults & 3 children). Very clean and well-appointed with quality beds and linens. Well-stocked kitchen.Location was just one block from the beach in a relatively quiet neighborhood. Pool was great and pool table was a favorite past-time for all. Jaco Main St. shops and restaurants were within 15 minute walking distance.24-hr on-site security was a huge plus. The guards were also very attentive if we needed anything. Housekeeping and management were very professional and accommodating.We would go back in a heartbeat.

Amazing Castle in Jaco

Our family of eleven, ranging in age from 4 to 80, found this villa very comfortable and conducive to lots of family fun and interaction. Three families found their space for quiet times yet the openness and the sheltered pool brought everyone together. Maura was extremely helpful and her staff was friendly and professional. Two meals by Chef Pablo were superb. There was three well protected parking places with 24 hour security, while the beach was just a three minute walk. We found the town of Jaco was easily walked to from the villa, yet we were far enough from the crowds in town and on the beach. We highly recommend you consider staying in this one of kind villa in this location.

Fantastic host and beautiful home in a great location!!

I went to Costa Rica to celebrate my 60th birthday with my sisters and niece. The host, Maura, was absolutely wonderful. She helped me plan all of our activities and even called the restaurants when we wanted to stay in for take away. She was very responsive, answering texts within minutes. She even arranged to have a birthday cake with balloons and decorations on my birthday!! She made sure everything with our stay went smoothly. The home and grounds are simply beautiful. They look even better in person! Both are very well maintained. The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The country is beautiful. I was very impressed with everything and I want to say thank you again to Maura and her staff!!

We stayed for 4 nights in this wonderful villa which is right on the beach, wonderful to start the day with a swim in the sea and a jog on the beach, we had breakfast cooked for us every morning and one evening too, highly recommend it. The villa is well equipped and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. Maura was lovely and helped us book a table at a restaurant and order food home.

Very cozy and comfy house, great AC so you can sleep well, excellent management

AC unit in the bedrooms, kitchen and the TV/couch area. Excellent management that helped with anything I needed (rental car, shuttle, etc.). Just a few houses from the beach (like 30-60 seconds on foot). Stayed here with friends and family, and then a few nights on my own. If you're in Jaco, I would highly recommend this place.

The Best Accomodations in Jaco Beach

This is a first class accomodation that will be hard to be topped. Everything that you could possibly want while staying in Jaco is right here in one place! Whether you are entertaining or just looking to relax, this house has it all. The gourmet kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and you will have the ability to create an unforgettable feast on premises. The crew that checks you in, cleans, secures, etc. are perfect and professional and you won't even know that they are there. I will definitely repeat and enjoy this prime location again!

About the host

Hosted by Dan Coleman

Host profile image
As a lifelong design and architecture fan, we designed Villa Antigua to be the perfect getaway for families in groups. Capturing a special ambience and providing a unique experience through design was our primary focus. I'm proud of how Villa Antigua turned out and have a passion for sharing my home with others to create lifelong memories.

Why they chose this property

I was lucky to find this piece of property in the exact area that we were looking. Far enough away from the hustle and bustle downtown Jaco, but close enough to get there with a five minute taxi ride. Villa Antigua, offers privacy and relaxation 200 feet from the beach, capturing the best of all worlds.

What makes this property unique

What makes villa Antigua stand out from the rest ice the feeling you get when you enter the property. The ambience, location, seclusion, upscale, unique architecture, and add attention to guest services that has become our hallmark as an escape getaway. This includes our concierge services provided by our Villa host, and our daycare taker that acts as an assistant for our guest needs.
