*The villa is on the mountain and so a 4 x 4 vehicle is needed to safely reach the villa.

We are located approximately 3.5 hours from the SJO San Jose International Airport in the Dominical area of Puntarenas, Costa Rica.
Villa Ambiente takes the phrase 'postcards from paradise' to an entirely new level.

The Villa was formally a boutique hotel with management converting the Property to an exclusive Private Villa. Featuring eight fully-equipped bedrooms, a breathtaking infinity pool that overlooks the mighty Pacific Ocean, two bars, and a fully stocked kitchen, Villa Ambiente is a top-of-the-line vacation rental nestled in the lush green hills of Dominicalito (Little Dominical).

Those who visit say it’s like having your own mini resort within a completely private estate. This is outdoor living at its finest.

A 7-8-minute drive from the coastal highway into tropical jungle, Villa Ambiente's immaculate living area spans more than 7,000-square feet and includes a large villa, split-level pool deck in a five hectares estate of pristine forest. The grounds are optimal for hosting a range of social events, including family reunions, weddings, retreats and anniversaries. Events of this variety have been staged on the grounds multiple times!

Open the front door and your vacation dreams quickly become a reality.

A beautiful, natural-light garden and flowing water fountain greet visitors on arrival. There are four private bedrooms adjacent to the first-floor garden. Each room has its own air conditioning unit, bathroom, secure safety box and private patio.

Past the garden is a grand entertaining room complete with soft-to-the-touch sofas, love seats and tables. An immaculate wine bar is nestled on the right side of the room, the perfect place to unwind with a glass of chardonnay after a long day under the Central American sun.

About that sun: you'll have plenty of time to catch rays out at the 40-foot infinity pool, which is second to none in terms of location and looks. And don't even think about packing towels on this trip. We have you covered from the moment you arrive to the second you say 'adios!'

The pool is lined with layout chairs and tables with Umbrellas for shade, and outdoor shower, and a barbecue is always on standby to crank out some local fish.

On the west side of the pool deck, the side that's closest to the ocean, sits an outdoor tiki bar that easily seats a half-dozen guests. If you ever wanted to pretend you were Tom Cruise in 'Cocktail,' mixing drinks behind your back and tossing tequila in the air, this is the premier spot to work on your libation-making skills.

The kitchen, also located on the first floor adjacent to the wine bar, is completely up to date with stainless steel appliances, filtered water, a beer/wine cooler and dishwasher.

While most of the action takes place on the first floor, there are four additional bedrooms on the second floor. Each of these high ceiling rooms features a king bed, balcony, safe security box, air conditioning and bathroom.

Above all that, on the third floor, is a small lookout area good for gazing into the nearby jungle. Grab some binoculars and go up there because you never know; you might just see a family of white-faced monkeys or a couple of Parrots out there.

Villa Ambiente is that kind of special place. We would be delighted to host you!

The Villa Ambiente worked out to be a perfect location for our family to enjoy both a reunion and a celebration of our 50th Wedding Anniversary.There was lots of room for all of us to hang out without being on top of each other, and the pool was a great hit with the 6 children. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, and the environment was outstanding. The Villa is a real gem and we are so glad that we found it.

Incredible family vacation, from the start Patricia was fantastic making sure all our needs were met. She arranged our chef Pedro: he and his staff prepared the most delicious meals, and secured our excursions. The house exceeded our expectations, with 17 of us, 10 adults and 7 children there was plenty of room for everyone. The open air floor plan and pool provided all the space and entertainment that a family our size needed. The views were breath taking with daily visits from parrots and toucans along an occasional visits from monkeys. The location and region of Costa Rica is all you need, from convenient shopping to a variety of restaurants. Many thanks to Patricia and her staff, we are already discussing plans for our next vacation at Villa Ambiente.

We had an amazing time! The property is beautiful with a stunning view. The individual suites were perfect. We were able to see a lot of wildlife & hear the howler monkeys each day. Patricia was very gracious & extremely helpful & responsive. Dominical is beautiful & the people are amazing! We would definitely stay here again!

We had an amazing time staying at the villa. The housekeeper Kris was great and kept the place clean, Giorgio there groundskeeper cleaned the pool and make sure any necessary repairs were done quickly, Patricia was great at planning the excursions. If you stay here make sure you ask for chef Pedro. He is an amazing chef we hired him for all breakfast and most dinners. It was worth the money. The food was amazing, the cleaned up before and after dinner. The experience was magical.

Our daughter wanted a destination wedding to Costa Rica and gave us 3 months to plan. We are from Alabama. Patricia is AMAZING! She connected us up with the most amazing people: photographer, guitarist, violinist, makeup artist and chefs. I read all the reviews before booking the villa. We rented 3, 4 wheel drive vehicles. All the reviews said the hill is worth it once you arrive at the villa. It is FANTASTIC! Once you open the front door you immediately know you are in a special place:) We also went on excursions that Patricia can help you plan. We went zip lining and I am not brave. It was awesome. ATV excursion, the newly weds went canyoning/waterfall repelling, kayaking, surfing and we reserved horseback riding but it rained that evening. Also, we chose to drive from the San Jose airport. It was 3 1/2 hrs but mainly because you drive slower. The highway was fine. If this helps our daughter thanked us for her DREAM WEDDING! PuraVida❤️

We had thirteen friends for a week here. The property sits up on the side of the mountain in the canopy of the jungle w/wonderful species of tropical plants, birds, monkeys, and a great view of the Pacific Ocean. Patricia is an amazing planner she helped us with all our excursions (ATV tour, ZipLine), a massage day & transportation, our driver Edgar was great, very accommodating and informative. We had two days of in house prepared meals (food of your choice from a local menu), our chef Pedro and his staff were great. Our stay at Villa Ambiente was a memorable one for all of us. Many TXS.

We had a fantastic day. Patricia was very responsive and took care of our every need. Our only concern was the possibility that our 20 passenger 2 Wheel drive bus would not be able to make it up the rough mile and a half road to the villa in a downpour, but we were lucky and it was never raining when we were riving.. Four-wheel drives are definitely recommended. But staying in such a quiet bird filled paradise made the extra effort to get up there more than worth it.
