About this house rental

Why Guests Love It
Villa Lantana stands out for its exceptional capacity and vantage point — large groups can spread out, choose their own zones, and still gather around the pool or balcony as the sun sets over the bay. Many guests highlight the “incredible view” and how the flexibility of the home layout works for both extended families and mixed-group travel. Zindis Hospitality’s attentive service helps turn that flexibility into ease.

Experience the Best of Costa Rica

Whether you're looking for adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, the Guanacaste coastline offers unforgettable experiences just minutes from your villa. Here are some of our favorite ways to explore the area:

Snorkel at Ocotal Beach
Step right into the water from Ocotal Beach and discover vibrant marine life, or charter a boat to visit several spectacular snorkeling spots teeming with some of the world’s most beautiful sea creatures.

Scuba Diving Adventures
Begin with a relaxed afternoon lesson, then dive into guided excursions the following day to explore Costa Rica’s rich underwater world.

Deep Sea Fishing
Spend a thrilling day on the Pacific, fishing for marlin, tuna, and other prized catches in some of the richest fishing waters in the world.

Sunset Boat Tours
Cruise along the coast at golden hour, with stops at secluded, boat-access-only beaches—perfect for a romantic evening or a peaceful escape.

Jet Ski Excursions
Rent jet skis and zip along the coast to discover hidden coves and picturesque beaches at your own pace.

Adventure Parks
Visit one (or more) of the nearby adventure parks offering zip-lining, horseback riding, wildlife sanctuaries, cultural experiences, and more—fun for all ages.

Cloud Forest Hiking
Enjoy a guided or self-paced hike through breathtaking national park trails in the nearby cloud forest, where lush scenery and exotic wildlife await.

Waterfalls & Natural Pools
Take a short drive to one of the region’s stunning waterfalls and cool off in the crystal-clear pools they form—ideal for a scenic picnic or a refreshing dip.

Beach-Hopping & Surf Lessons
Explore the unique charm of three nearby beaches—Ocotal, Coco, and Hermosa—or venture out to the iconic Tamarindo Beach for world-class surfing lessons.

Private Chef Experience
Treat yourself to a true taste of Costa Rica with an in-villa dining experience. A local chef will prepare an authentic meal featuring fresh, regional ingredients—all from the comfort of your villa.

Playa Ocotal and Playas del Coco are a small fishing village turned perfect tourist destination in the last decade. While not a surfing destination itself, the lagoon type beach makes it an ideal spot for enjoying the calm waters and the horseshoe shaped beach that is dotted with small bars and restaurants. There is a single main road through town complete with a variety of dining areas and quite a lively music and bar seen in the evening. This location is approximately a 45 minutes drive from the Liberia Airport.




Welcome to Villa Lantana — recently renovated — a gracious and expansive retreat perched above the bay in Playa Ocotal, Guanacaste. With four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and space for up to 12 guests, this villa offers generous modern comfort combined with dramatic views and abundant outdoor living.
Split across two levels (each level with two bedrooms and its own living area), the design grants flexibility and privacy — perfect for families traveling together or groups seeking shared space with distinct zones. The private pool overlooks the bay and horizon, inviting morning swims, relaxed afternoons and sunset gatherings.
Inside, you’ll find comfortable lounge areas, fully furnished kitchens, sliding glass doors that extend the living space outside, and balconies that frame the ocean beyond. Though tucked into the hillside, you’re only minutes from Playa Ocotal’s calm beach, local restaurants and the conveniences of Playas del Coco. Managed by Zindis Hospitality, your stay is supported from start to finish, allowing you to focus on connection, relaxation and discovery.

The title says it all. We spent a week in March at this property with 4 adults and 2 kids and it was completely amazing. Not only did it have a breathtaking view of the ocean and of the incredible sunsets each night, the house was comfortable, cool, and quiet. Bonus points for having air conditioning units in each bedroom. We spent hours in the clean refreshing pool before and after activities. The property is about 10 minutes from the beach and amazing restaurants and a short drive to hiking, animal sanctuaries, and all the various adventuring of Costa Rica. I will also never forget wandering outside to see howler monkeys in the trees next to the driveway. The property manager was extremely responsive and helpful. Costa Rica is a magical place and this rental is a perfect place to experience it.
8 / 10Excellent·Feb 2025
The six of us really love the house. We were there for eight days and not one time. Did we have a warm shower no much water pressure. The property manager did their best and even installed a new hot water heater, which failed to heat the water. Luckily it was beautiful weather in the pool was refreshing. The previous renters had broken a table and chairs that were just stored to the side of the house so we did not have that upstairs on the balcony. It’s a very nice home but it does need some updates.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2025
This home is an incredible place for a family. Everything is well maintained and taken care of. The communication between the host and us was superb to say the least. Alex is without question the very best in Costa Rica. If you have any questions or need something he is there to help you either in person or via phone. I would highly recommend this property. You will not be disappointed in any way.
6 / 10Average·Jan 2026
Check-in was at 3:00, however, because they were cleaning the property, they didn't let us in until 3:45. At check-out time, I asked to leave an hour later due to the late check-in, and they told me it wasn't possible. The pool pump didn't work during our entire stay; someone finally came to fix it the day we left, so the pool was dirty the whole time. The house was fine, but I'd give the cleanliness a 6. Otherwise, it was okay.
