Beachfront 3-Villa Oasis with Private Pools––Walk to Dominical
Steps from the sand, Caballitos del Mar is your Private Pura Vida Paradise so breathe in the coastal vibes and settle into your exclusive 3-villa beachfront oasis, each with private pool and whitewater views in one of the most beautiful regions of Costa Rica, the Southern Pacific zone––and no 4WD required to reach your coastal paradise––any car can handle the easy drive from San Jose Airport to Caballitos del Mar’s front door.
Casual coastal luxury welcomes you with fresh flowers, linens and towels as well as comfortable furnishings inside and out of this expansive and private beach retreat––3 freestanding homes steps from the sea with no other guests on premises during your stay. Ideal for friends & family celebrations, Caballitos del Mar offers privacy when you want it with ample indoor/outdoor spaces to gather at the beach and on your large, private lawn spanning all three villas––a magical oasis where the jungle meets the sea, teeming with iguanas, exotic birds, fireflies and even the occasional monkey.
This 3-Villa compound comfortably accommodates up to 25 guests––7 in Villa Central and 9 each in Villa Norte and Villa Sur (with sofa beds in their spacious lofts). Each ocean view villa offers 3 bedrooms (2 primary suites), 3 bathrooms and a private swimming pool. Every bedroom features an air conditioner, fan, screened windows, and sliding glass doors with private balcony or patio access. All 3 fully appointed villas also offer indoor/outdoor dining, washer/dryer, dishwasher, BBQ, coffeemaker, blender and reliable internet/cable TV. Cribs available upon request.
Concierge and Arrival Welcome Services provided by the multilingual staff at YouGetHere. There’s also a Costa Rican couple who maintain the grounds and villas, providing frequent light cleaning during your stay. In-home chef and massage services as well as tour, car and shuttle reservation assistance are available upon request.
Local surf spots start steps from your terrace, making Caballitos del Mar the optimal beachfront basecamp for all warm water ocean enthusiasts.
For those looking to venture a little further out, there are nearby waterfalls, kayaking, hiking, horseback riding and river rafting available along with Manuel Antonio National Park, a premiere destination in the Central Pacific Region, only 45 minutes away.
Closer in, an easy 5-minute drive or relaxing 20-minute stroll on the beach takes you to the beach town of Dominical where you’ll find cafes, bars, shops, microbrewery, surf shops, yoga and a small, fully stocked grocery store. Dominical as well as nearby Uvita (an easy, 15-minute drive away) have several restaurants reflecting the international diversity of people who call this blissful coastal area home. No casinos, high rise hotels, or all-inclusive resorts here, just an easygoing vibe where people come together to eat, drink and hang out in this chill Pacific beach haven. There’s also reliable taxi and food delivery service available from both locales.

We had a wonderful stay for our family of 14, making great use of all 3 villas. The grounds were beautifully maintained. The onsite managers were wonderful people and very helpful and pleasant (Viva? and Jorge are great). All 3 pools were in great shape, clean and each were different temps due to their position in sun, so it was perfect for swims any time, any pool of choice. The beach is right there by short path and walk to town is an easy 20 minutes. Always felt totally safe, even had nightly security guard and managers were onsite. We'd stay again for sure!

We absolutely loved our time here in Dominical! These homes were everything we had hoped for and more. The property is clean, beautiful, and incredibly well-positioned. We had a group of 8 adults and 8 children, ages 1-15, and everyone had a wonderful time. We loved the easy access to the beach, the crystal clean pools, the BBQ grills, the regular house cleaning, the very well-appointed kitchens, and all the iguana friends in the backyard.Every single person we interacted with was amazing from check-in to the onsite property caretaker, to the security staff, to the pool caretaker. We loved the entire crew! We had one small baby, and the team made sure to bring a baby gate for the stairs, a crib, and a high chair for us. Those little details go a long way! Our family members who didn't make this trip had major FOMO and are already bugging us to book a return trip to Caballitos Del Mar!

We were with a group of 21 that stayed in all 3 houses. The location of the homes were excellent. Beautiful beach to hang out on and waves that were calm enough to swim in. A little further to the right on the beach the ocean was a little calmer. The homes were perfect for our families. There was no air conditioning in the main part of the house- only the bedrooms- but this wasn’t a huge problem. Windows could be opened to help with air flow. The homes were well maintained and everything was in good shape. We did have a problem with one of the ovens. It was looked at but never fixed. There was always someone around to ask questions and a security guard was always walking around the property. The home is minutes from Dominical and the large grocery store which was really handy with such a large group. Patios and pools were used regularly and worked out perfectly! Macaws and other animals were often spotted on the property. Beautiful property that suited our needs very well! Would highly recommend!

The property was well maintained and the houses were stocked with everything you might need, down to laundry detergent! The beach out front was beautiful and basically private. The location is close to town and felt very safe. There is a grounds keeper on the property at all times, they are very friendly and helpful, but you practically don’t notice them. It was great for our group!
