Casa de Amor
May 6, 2010
Casa de Amor is the most romantic rental house in the Malpais/Santa Teresa area. It’s completely private, with no other homes with 500 meters or more. Ideal for honeymooners, or couples wishing to relive theirs. If you’re going on vacation and thinking about making a marriage proposal, then this is the place to do it! It has a second double bed, so it works well for small families too.
Look at that View!
This rental house is blessed with the most gorgeous views in Malpais. I’ve seen the view from Mel Gibson’s land and this one beats it. It has a perfect bird’s eye view of both the famous Sunset Reef surf break, Mar Azul. This view is incredible from every part of the house, even the bathroom. If you’re coming to Costa Rica to relax, you’ve found the right rental villa, because this view will nearly put you in a trance. It’s hard to impress this writer with views around here, because I own Anamaya Resort, and as owner of Tropisphere real estate too, I’ve seen just about every view in the area. Believe me, this view is in the top three in the area.
Infinity Pool
Casa de Amor has a brand new private infinity pool just for you! The views from the pool are really just to die for. You will find yourself staring for hours at the sea and jungle below. Be sure to bring lots of sunscreen because the pool gets full sun all day.
House Design
The house is an open design, with a large kitchen on one side and the bedroom on the other, and no door in between. Nearly all the walls are just glass, creating a great feeling of light and space. It’s an ideal design for the tropics, and works well here in this ultra-private setting.
The bathroom is very unique, with the shower outside in the open air, and a large round window facing the ocean view. Again, this type of bathroom is ideal for the tropics, and architects and builders who are working in Costa Rica should take note of the design.
Nearby Malpais Beaches and Amenities:
This house is located near famous Mary’s Restaurant, which is one of the best in the area. It’s also close to Malpais’s “Secret Beach”, which is possibly the most idyllic and perfect white sand beach in the peninsula. It will fulfill all your tropical beach fantasies unless you’re a surfer, since this is a better beach for swimming and also it’s the best snorkelling spot in Malpais.
For malpais surfing, Casa de Amor is located near to the best surf break in the peninsula… Sunset Reef. It’s also close to Mar Azul, another great break. If you want a beach break, the beaches of Santa Teresa are only about 5-6 minutes drive, along with all of Santa Teresa’s fabulous restaurants and the chocolate eclairs at the new Belgian bakery (highly recommended.)
Other Details:
* High Speed Wireless Internet: We have high speed wireless set up, and you’ll just need the password to get connected.
* Gas Barbecue Grill: High end American Style gas grill is operational… perfect for grilling the fish you catch while in Malpais. Or buy fresh fish from the fisherman, straight off the boats in Malpais.
* Kitchen: The house has a large, full kitchen with four-burner stove, a large stainless steel refrigerator with built-in ice maker, and all the pots and pans you need.
* TV: Yes, it even has cable TV for those who don’t want to escape from the tube even in Costa Rica… with hundreds of international channels. It also has many music channels and can be used that way too.

Punta Coco
May 6, 2010
A trip back in time to the golden days of the Santa Teresa/Malpais area. This is one of the oldest beachfront houses in the area, built by a successful lawyer from San Jose as his family’s private remote hideaway from the city, and only just now opened up for the public to rent after a major remodel that modernized it and added a swimming pool.
The ultimate “pura vida” experience, and the most affordable large beachfront villas in the area. With three cabinas, consisting of five rooms and capacity to sleep 12, a few families can stay here together for less than the price of a hotel. With a large chill/dining area, this rental is one of the best in the area. The house sits right on the point, with a border of coconut palm trees, hence it’s name “Punta Coco.” Directly in front, beyond a border of sand, are rocks, which create a very beautiful scene as the waves break upon them. You can’t swim directly in front, so the tourists don’t hang out right in front of the house, giving you excellent privacy. But the swimming beaches are very close… just a 1-2 minute walk, which we think makes this the absolutely ideal beachfront location.
The property consists of four acres of natural tropical forest and has approximately 150 feet of beachfront. Santa Teresa in Costa Rica is very well known for it’s world class surfing, which is a one minute walk from this tropical paradise. Enjoy summer days under a deep blue sky, relax and rest on a hammock, embedded in an exuberant vegetation, surrounded by exotic tropical birds, howler monkeys, or squirrels inviting you for a stroll through the tropical forest, or walk by the white sanded, warm, Pacific shoreline.
Sunsets in Punta Coco are extraordinarily beautiful, with numerous seagulls and pelicans flying by. The sound of breaking waves lulls one to sleep on clear starry nights or of intense darkness.
Surfing, scuba diving, snorkeling, horse back riding, hiking at Cabo Blanco National Park, and saltwater sports fishing are among the many activities that can be enjoyed during your stay.
Classic Costa Rican beachfront villa in Santa Teresa, with perfect surfing waves in front. This is bargain-priced to fill rapidly, so book it now. (Read More)
