Nestled amid the Costa Rican jungle, with spectacular views of the hills and Pacific Ocean, this hidden gem is one of the most unique we’ve come across. The villa is divided into three pods, each connected by walkways and boasts three ensuite bedrooms, as well as a dreamy open-plan lounge, hammocks and saltwater pool. A five-minute stroll through the forest takes you to Santa Teresa beach, where you can soak up the sun or have a go at surfing. The town, with a variety of shops and eateries, is but a ten-minute drive away.
Home truths: *Children up to four years are not allowed to stay at or visit the property.
