Open air rooftop living with ocean views, jungle breezes, and unforgettable sunsets ✨
A vibrant, one of a kind stay designed to relax, inspire, and reset
Welcome to the Hippie Palace rooftop palapa, a magical open air sanctuary perched above La Manzanilla, created for free spirits, dreamers, and adventurous travelers looking for something truly unforgettable.
From the moment you arrive, you feel it.
An explosion of color, energy, movement, and breeze all around you.
This is not just a place to stay, it is a full experience.
With sweeping panoramic views of the ocean, jungle, and mountains, every corner invites you to slow down, smile, breathe deeper, and soak it all in.
The Space
Playful, vibrant, and full of personality, the Hippie Palace is designed to make you feel alive.
The colorful Hippie Terrace is the heart of it all, with a cozy sofa, hammock, and front row seats to breathtaking sunsets and the cool Pacific breeze that flows through the space all day.
Inside, every detail tells a story.
The Cool Room features a full size bed with a mosquito canopy, where the ocean peeks through rustic wood details, keeping you connected to nature even while you rest.
A spiral wooden staircase leads to the cozy loft, The Traveler’s Dream, filled with soft pillows and a full size bed, a peaceful elevated nook perfect for relaxing and unwinding.
The third bedroom, Zen Space, is Bali inspired and surrounded by greenery. It features a queen size bed, a meditation shrine, mountain views, and sliding glass doors that open to the ocean and jungle. It also includes a sitting area, perfect for enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets.
The fully equipped kitchen opens to a breakfast bar with a captivating panoramic view, making even simple moments feel special.
Outdoor Living
This is where the magic happens.
Swing into your morning coffee.
Feel the ocean breeze all day.
Watch the sky transform into gold, pink, and fire at sunset.
The pool, lounge, and garden areas are shared spaces until 9 PM if the downstairs loft is rented, and add to the relaxed, easygoing vibe of the property.
The Beach and Village
Just a 10 to 15-minute walk down the hill takes you to the breathtaking beaches of La Manzanilla.
Miles of wide, uncrowded coastline stretch in both directions, giving you the feeling of discovering something untouched and timeless. This picturesque fishing village feels like stepping back in time, where life slows down, your breath softens, and your nervous system begins to reset.
It is quiet, dreamy, and deeply peaceful.
The walk back up the hill adds a bit of adventure, especially on warm summer days, but it is always worth it for the views, the breeze, and the feeling of returning to your own private sanctuary above it all.
Good to Know
The Hippie Palace is an open air space without enclosed walls, allowing the ocean breeze to flow freely through the entire home.
Only the Zen Space bedroom has air conditioning. The rest of the space is cooled by four industrial fans and portable units that keep things comfortable even in warmer months.
Nature is part of the experience here. You may encounter mosquitos in the evenings, so bringing repellent is recommended. All beds are equipped with mosquito nets for your comfort.
The internet is generally reliable, though occasional interruptions may occur. During the summer months, the village may experience temporary water shortages, but the house maintains a reserve supply.
Access and Layout
The rooftop palapa is your private space, accessed by spiral stairs. The entrance to the property is shared with the lower levels, but once upstairs, you are in your own elevated world.
The three sleeping areas share one bathroom.
