About this property

Oceanfront Escape: Villa la Paz - Your Private Costa Rican Paradise - Sleeps 8

Villa la Paz at Bahia Pez Vela is your gateway to Pura Vida. Just literally steps from a secluded black-sand beach, this peaceful ocean-view villa offers tranquil seclusion, luxury comfort, fast Wi-Fi, infinity pools, and a beachfront restaurant. Wake to howler monkeys, sip coffee on your balcony while gazing at the ocean (maybe you'll see a whale!), stroll down to the beach, take a dip, check out the tide pools and explore the vibrant nature and culture of Costa Rica—just minutes from Coco, and a world away in serenity. WATER PARK IS A DRIVE AWAY BUT NOT ON PREMISES.

Our host was very informative re: Villa La Paz and the surrounding area. We had a delightful stay and the view of the beach and ocean from the balcony was awesome.

The hosts were so great to work with. Friendly, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure we had the best possible stay. I asked for many recommendations about food and attractions and they gave us local recommendations and arranged details we didn’t even think to ask about. We felt completely supported from booking all the way through checkout. It was like having a good friend helping us.
Wonderful pool
5 minute walk to this beach!

Incredible condo resort on the hillside over a secluded black sand beach with a yummy restaurant and great concierge! Stayed 4 nights and wish we stayed 7. You can kayak or snorkel off the beach, play in tide pools and watch the sunset every night. In the am you’ll be visited by parrots and howler monkeys and in the afternoon nap in a hammock by the beach. The sand is black, so hot during the day, but so soft. Sunsets are beyond compare. The condo is well apportioned and comfy with great beds, ac in each room, and epic views. Great kitchen to cook in and would be comfy for up to 6 or 7 guests. Quick walk down a steep hill to the beach and restaurant. Concierge can arrange lots of day trips. Would recommend having a car so you can check out some local beaches/towns on your own. Wis we could have stayed longer.

We had a wonderful spring break with our teenage kids. While we loved exploring the area and finding other beaches and hikes (and nearby zip lining and boogie boarding at Tamarindo) we kinda preferred to stay close to this beautiful cove. Almost everyday we explored the tidal pools (forever changing), watched stunning sunsets from different spots depending on the tides, snorkeled in the bay, read on the beach and often shifted to the pool for an afternoon snack and drink. Our mini adventures so close to the house were just right for relaxing, popping up to the house (5 min walk) for lunch pr a change of gear, and taking in the beauty of this place. We also did a fishing trip- booked with the property host. It was an amazing 4 hours. They picked us up right on the beach, and we lucked out and the black tuna were running. The captain and guide fileted the fish and cooked it up back at the house. That was definitely a highlight for my son. This is just such a great spot to stay close or get to the many adventures within an hour or 2.

The Perfect Costa Rica Getaway — Safe, Stunning, and Hosted With HeartOur stay at Villa La Paz was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived at Bahia Pez Vela, we felt welcomed, safe, and completely taken care of. The villa sits directly above a gorgeous black sand cove on Costa Rica’s Pacific coast — the kind of place that instantly makes you slow down, breathe deeper, and feel like you’ve found a secret hideaway. The hosts were incredible. Every question was answered quickly, warmly, and with genuine care. They guided us through everything from airport tips to exploring hidden nearby beaches, and they checked in just enough to make us feel supported without ever being intrusive. It truly felt like staying at a friend’s home — a friend who really wants your trip to be amazing.
