The Space:

Casa de Kai is a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom villa. We call it the ultimate surfer's retreat. Its ambiance, decor, and character truly define the Rincon lifestyle. If you are looking to relax, experience breathtaking sunsets, enjoy quiet surroundings, swim in a private pool, and still have all the fun and action Rincón has to offer then this is the place for you!



The villa is a short drive away from secluded beaches where you can experience calm waters in the Summer and world-class surfing during the Winter season. One of our guest's favorites is Sandy Beach, just a 2-minute drive! Once you get off the main road, you will encounter narrow countryside roads for approx 3-5 minutes until you get to the property.



IMPORTANT: This property offers a generator & water tank in case of an interruption in electrical or water service.
