Exotic Iguana Apartmentos 1

We chose Esterillos Oeste for its perfect balance of raw natural beauty and authentic Costa Rican charm. It offers a true escape from the crowded tourist trails, yet remains conveniently connected to the energy and amenities of the larger towns.

Here’s what we enjoy most:

The Scene:
The neighborhood feels both expansive and intimate. It’s a tapestry of lush, green properties nestled along quiet dirt roads, where the sound of the ocean is your constant soundtrack. You’ll share the space with friendly local families, surfers seeking the perfect wave, and travelers who have discovered this hidden gem. It’s peaceful and safe, offering a rare sense of privacy and connection to nature.

What We Love Most:
What we enjoy most is the unique daily rhythm. Mornings begin with a spectacular sunrise over the Pacific and the lively calls of howler monkeys and macaws. Days are spent enjoying the vast, uncrowded beach—a long stretch of dark sand perfect for long walks, surfing, or simply soaking in the view. The evenings are for unforgettable sunsets and stargazing in the clear night sky.

It’s the best of both worlds: the serene, "off-the-beaten-path" feeling of a coastal retreat, with the practical perks of nearby supermarkets like Maxi Pali and the option to easily explore the vibrant towns of Jaco and Parrita for dinner and adventures.

It’s not just a place to stay; it’s a place to truly experience Pura Vida.

Our property stands out by offering a rare combination of private luxury and immersive wilderness, all within a stone's throw of the beach. Here’s what makes Villa Iguanas a truly unique choice:

1. A Flexible Estate for Any Travel Group:
Unlike a single rental, we offer a main villa and three private apartments. This unique setup is perfect for everything from a romantic getaway in an apartment to a large family reunion or a group retreat where guests can enjoy both privacy in their own space and togetherness in the shared estate grounds.

2. A Front-Row Seat to Epic Wildlife:
You don’t need to go on a tour to experience Costa Rica's famous biodiversity—it comes to you. It’s common to wake up to troops of monkeys passing through the trees, witness the brilliant flash of scarlet macaws flying overhead, and share the garden with majestic iguanas. This isn't just a view; it's a daily, immersive experience.

3. Uninterrupted Panoramic Ocean Views:
Perched on a hillside, the estate offers jaw-dropping, expansive views of the Pacific Ocean from multiple vantage points. Whether you're swimming in your private pool, enjoying a meal on the terrace, or simply relaxing in a hammock, the vast blue horizon is your constant backdrop.

4. The Best of Both Worlds: Serenity & Convenience:
We offer the peace and privacy of a secluded natural retreat, yet are only a short walk to the beach and a quick drive to local supermarkets (Maxi Pali) and the restaurants of Jaco and Parrita. You get the quiet "Pura Vida" experience without sacrificing convenience.

In short, Villa Iguanas is more than just a place to sleep; it's a destination that delivers an authentic, unforgettable, and uniquely Costa Rican adventure.
