The Space

If you’re going to rent a place in Costa Rica that’s on the beach, make sure it’s truly beachfront! Villa
Central is as close to the sand as you can legally build, offering an unparalleled connection to the ocean while lush jungle gardens provide complete privacy and intimacy.
Your days will revolve around the gorgeous, sparkling tiled pool that wraps around the expansive terrace.
Enjoy meals at the outdoor dining table where you can hear the ocean and smell the salt spray. Large eaves and an overhead fan ensure your comfort, rain or shine.
Large sliding glass doors connect the terrace to the modern kitchen, so the chef is never left out of the conversation or the stunning views. The villa also features a large living room and dining area downstairs, surrounded by native plants, palm trees, and towering 100-foot primary forest trees.

Host profile image
We fell in love with the Dominical area while visiting in 2004 while attending a Spanish language school in town. We found this rare parcel of ocean-front property and began the long process of building three lovely villas that are nestled into the shoreline jungle, while being as close to the beach as possible. We wanted a property where families could rent one, two, or three of the villas and no one would get short-changed. The two families that own the property both travel extensively, and have a good idea of what other travelers expect. No one wants to be "nickel and dimed" with extra charges and harsh penalties: they want to be treated fairly and get good value for their travel budget. That's our goal with Caballitos del Mar. Each villa has the same floor plan, but each also feels different due to the different views of the ocean and gardens. The ground floor is accessible, and has the advantage of a bedroom that opens right out onto the terrace and pool areas. A great room, with living room, dining area and kitchen, is the hub of the house, allowing a cool place to cook, use a computer, or dine. The upstairs features two bedrooms; one which is a "master" with ensuite bathroom, and one which has two beds and is frequently used by children. We chose YouGetHere to manage our property because they have the same high standards that we do, and they keep a close eye on the amenities and condition of the property so that no guests are disappointed. They can provide tour information, arrange for a private chef, or just answer questions about the area. They consistently get high marks in our reviews because they care about making everyone's vacation as good as it can be.

Why they chose this property

We love being close to the beach and close to town. Dominical is a quiet, sort of funky village that has lovely, locally-owned restaurants and shops, with a feeling of casualness and a love of nature. Surfing appears to be the draw for many, but it's really the closeness of the community to Costa Rica's biodiversity that permeates the place. All tourism is "ecotourism", and it's not a marketing ploy, it's the real deal. The shoreline is constantly changing with the tide and the season. One day it's smooth sand, and the next day it's full of smooth pebbles from the constant movement of the surf. With tides in the 3 meter range, the appearance of the beach changes from compact to vast over the course of six hours. The afternoon showers which occur for about half the year bring some exciting changes in the weather, but only for an hour or so at a time.

What makes this property unique

This is a unique oceanfront property that is as close to the water as possible. • The beach is less than a 100 feet stroll from the oceanfront garden. • A gorgeous private tiled pool is perfect for cool dips morning to night. • Beautiful landscaped tropical gardens with gorgeous tropical flowers. • The property is easy to access year 'round; 4x4 vehicles are not necessary. • There is an onsite staff providing housekeeping, security, and gardening. • Easy walk or drive to the supermarket, restaurants, stores and Dominical town. • Surf spots are as close as walking out to the beach, or wander up the beach to Dominical. • YouGetHere offers concierge services, which to name a few choices: On-site chef, massage, ecotourism tours, and whitewater rafting (among others.) • You will be personally met and escorted to the property, and given a tour of the villa, to ensure a fun and relaxing trip to Dominical and the Pacific Coast region!
