Arcos del Mar is a unique, spacious, villa set at a culdesac on an expansive lot set with gardens . The home is hacienda style with a courtyard and fountain at its core, with viewing platforms edging the hill with views out over the beach and Pacific ocean. This home offers maximum privacy.

We will try to get any garden works done prior to arrival and when you are out on an adventure.

Guests say:
"Stayed at Villa [Arcos Del Mar] with a family of 8 - all adults. The house is impeccable... The spaces are huge. The rooms are suite style - each feels like a luxury hotel suite. The house is decorated in a very fashionable and ethnic way making you feel like you've really escaped into a magical vacation. The house has a huge central courtyard and all the hallways that connect the rooms are exterior. I felt like I was in some old world Spanish castle sometimes. The beach is down below the house and you can get there by a staircase that leads you down. Or you can drive to the beach... Our stay also included a daily private chef for breakfast - custom eggs, fresh fruit, amazing local coffee, and many more special food items. the daily housekeeper was also a great feature. The view from the house's sun decks is stunning. Looking right over Playa [Prieta] and out to a crazy amazing landscape. We spent morning coffee, afternoon happy hour and plenty of late nights on the sun decks looking over the epic view... It was a truly luxurious experience...This house was special and we will never forget it. We relaxed and enjoyed the incredible country in comfort. I highly recommend [Arcos Del Mar]. Thank you for everything."

"[This] is a fantastic property located above Playa Prieta with outstanding views of the Pacific and access to the beach via steep stone steps. The property's architecture was inspired by the Alhambra and everywhere there are interesting architecture features. I highly recommend this wonderful villa."

"Unique property, ideal location on the Peninsula. Excellent service by property owner and [...] concierge. Chef services were outstanding. Gorgeous views. Access to Prieta Beach Club was fantastic. We created many memories that will last a lifetime."

"My family truly enjoyed our 12 days at Villa [Arcos Del Mar]. The home was perfect for us, an abundance of space for everyone and beautifully decorated. The [concierge] arranged a chef service for our breakfast every morning, the food was amazing and the staff they sent was talented and very friendly! One of the perks about this home, we could take a path and some steps to the beach below and walk to the Prieta Beach Club. It is an incredible club, the pools, gym, restaurants, and staff were so great! We also went to the Four Seasons by golf cart for dinner several times, wonderful property and restaurants. I can't say enough good things about our vacation, except that we will be back!"
