Villa Front Ocean view Costa Rica ( In house Chef)
As you step through the front door, the breathtaking Pacific Ocean view instantly sets the tone. The main floor unfolds as a seamless open living space where indoor comfort meets outdoor beauty — designed from the ground up to embrace nature without sacrificing any luxury. A fully equipped kitchen with high-end appliances, a sprawling lap pool, sunset cocktails on the terrace and dinner under the stars — this is where your vacation truly lives. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms each offer ensuite bathrooms and king-size beds, except our double room which features two queen beds. Every single room frames a stunning ocean view. The master bedroom opens onto a large covered terrace — a perfect morning yoga spot. On the main floor, our versatile bonus room is equipped with a queen/single bunk bed combo and a cozy TV lounge area — ideal for kids, teens, or an additional couple thanks to the full queen bottom bunk. It also has its own private ensuite bathroom. Sonia, our gracious caretaker, prepares a delicious breakfast each morning and keeps the house effortlessly tidy around your schedule — always with fresh towels at the ready. She lives in her own completely separate apartment beneath the house, with a private entrance — ensuring your privacy is fully preserved at all times. Discreet yet warm, she is beloved by our guests as you’ll see in our reviews. Our co-host Anggie supports you from booking to departure, coordinating chef-prepared meals, in-home massages and connecting you with our concierge before you even land — so every adventure is planned and every question answered. Whether this is your first time in Costa Rica or you’re one of those who, like us, have fallen completely in love with its nature, people and magic — you are in wonderful hands. 🔒 Your Safety & Peace of Mind La Maison-Blanche sits at the end of a quiet, private dead-end street. The villa is equipped with a full security system, and a discreet overnight presence watches over the neighborhood — so you can fully unwind and enjoy every moment in complete serenity.
