  • Casa Pura Vida | 2BR/2BA Tropical Villa in Playa Lagarto, Guanacaste

    Escape to the Real Costa Rica

    Welcome to Casa Pura Vida, a comfortable and inviting 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom vacation villa in Playa Lagarto Eco Development, Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, abundant wildlife, and the peaceful atmosphere of the Costa Rican jungle, Casa Pura Vida is the perfect home base for travelers looking to experience the natural beauty and relaxed lifestyle of Costa Rica.

    Located near the Pacific coast between some of Guanacaste's most beautiful beaches, Casa Pura Vida offers something increasingly difficult to find: peace, privacy, nature, and easy access to incredible beaches without the crowds of the major resort destinations.

    This spacious tropical retreat is ideal for families, couples, friends, surfers, nature lovers, birdwatchers, beach enthusiasts, digital nomads, and travelers looking for a more authentic Costa Rican vacation.

    Spend your mornings enjoying coffee surrounded by tropical greenery, your afternoons swimming or exploring nearby beaches, and your evenings watching spectacular Pacific sunsets. Or simply slow down, relax, and enjoy the sounds of the jungle.

    At Casa Pura Vida, you don't have to schedule every minute of your vacation. Sometimes the best part of Costa Rica is having nowhere to be.

    YOUR TROPICAL HOME AWAY FROM HOME

    Casa Pura Vida provides the comfort and convenience of having your own private vacation home while allowing you to experience the natural beauty of Playa Lagarto.

    The villa features two comfortable bedrooms and two full bathrooms, making it an excellent choice for families or two couples traveling together. The layout provides plenty of space to relax while still offering convenient shared areas for cooking, dining, and spending time together.

    The villa has been thoughtfully furnished to create a comfortable tropical atmosphere. The combination of indoor comfort and outdoor living allows you to enjoy the best of Costa Rica throughout your stay.

    After a day of exploring Guanacaste, return to Casa Pura Vida, cool off in the air conditioning, prepare a meal in the fully equipped kitchen, relax with high-speed Wi-Fi, or simply sit outside and listen to the sounds of nature.

    Unlike a traditional hotel, you'll have the flexibility to make Casa Pura Vida your own during your stay.

    Wake up when you want.

    Eat when you want.

    Explore at your own pace.

    Relax when you want.

    That's the Pura Vida way.

    COMFORTABLE LIVING SPACE

    The inviting living area provides a comfortable place to relax after a day of adventure.

    Whether you're planning tomorrow's beach excursion, catching up with family, reading a book, watching television, or simply enjoying the tropical surroundings, the living space gives everyone a place to unwind.

    High-speed Wi-Fi is available, making it easy to stay connected with work, family, or friends when necessary.

    For guests working remotely or staying for an extended period, having reliable internet and a comfortable living environment makes Casa Pura Vida a practical choice as well as a relaxing one.

    Of course, Costa Rica has a way of encouraging guests to put their phones down and enjoy the world outside.

    FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN

    The kitchen is equipped with the essentials you'll need to prepare meals during your stay.

    Enjoy the convenience of having breakfast at home before heading out for the day, prepare sandwiches and snacks for the beach, or pick up fresh local ingredients and prepare dinner at the villa.

    A kitchen is particularly useful for families with children, guests staying for longer periods, and anyone who prefers the flexibility of preparing some meals rather than eating out every day.

    Guanacaste also offers an excellent selection of local restaurants, sodas, cafés, and other places to eat, so you can easily combine meals at home with opportunities to experience local Costa Rican cuisine.

    Try fresh seafood, traditional Costa Rican dishes, tropical fruit, gallo pinto, casado, ceviche, and other regional specialties during your stay.

    TWO PRIVATE BEDROOMS

    Casa Pura Vida features two comfortable bedrooms, providing a peaceful retreat after a day spent exploring Costa Rica.

    The bedrooms are designed with comfort in mind and include air conditioning to help you stay cool during Guanacaste's warm tropical nights.

    The two-bedroom configuration makes the villa especially convenient for:

    • Families traveling with children

    • Two couples vacationing together

    • Friends traveling as a group

    • Couples who want extra space

    • Longer stays in Costa Rica

    • Guests working remotely

    Fresh linens are provided so you can settle in and feel at home from the moment you arrive.

    After a day of swimming, surfing, hiking, sightseeing, or exploring the beaches of Guanacaste, you'll appreciate having a cool, comfortable bedroom waiting for you.

    TWO FULL BATHROOMS

    Casa Pura Vida has two full bathrooms, providing additional convenience and privacy for families and groups.

    When several guests are getting ready for a beach day, dinner, or an early morning excursion, having two bathrooms makes the experience considerably easier.

    Fresh towels are provided for guests.

    OUTDOOR LIVING & TROPICAL NATURE

    One of the most memorable aspects of staying at Casa Pura Vida is the opportunity to experience Costa Rica's tropical environment right outside your door.

    The villa is surrounded by lush vegetation, giving you the feeling of being immersed in nature.

    Step outside in the morning and listen to tropical birds.

    Keep an eye on the trees for monkeys.

    Watch for iguanas and other reptiles.

    Look for butterflies moving through the gardens.

    Listen to the sounds of the jungle as the day begins and winds down.

    The wildlife is one of the reasons guests choose Playa Lagarto over more heavily developed tourist destinations.

    You aren't simply visiting Costa Rica—you are surrounded by it.

    THREE COMMUNITY SWIMMING POOLS

    Guests staying at Casa Pura Vida have access to three community swimming pools within Playa Lagarto Eco Development.

    The pools provide a convenient place to cool off and relax without having to leave the development.

    Spend the morning exploring the Pacific coast and return for a refreshing swim in the afternoon.

    Enjoy some quiet pool time with a book.

    Let the children burn off some energy.

    Or simply relax beside the water with a cold drink and enjoy the tropical surroundings.

    Having multiple pools available gives guests several options during their stay.

    PLAYA LAGARTO ECO DEVELOPMENT

    Casa Pura Vida is located within Playa Lagarto Eco Development, a peaceful tropical community in the Guanacaste province of Costa Rica.

    This is a very different experience from staying in a large resort.

    Instead of high-rise hotels, busy tourist streets, and crowded pool decks, you'll find lush tropical surroundings, quiet roads, natural vegetation, and abundant wildlife.

    The development provides a peaceful base for exploring the southern Guanacaste coastline and surrounding communities.

    It's an ideal destination for travelers who appreciate nature, privacy, outdoor activities, and the opportunity to experience a quieter side of Costa Rica.

    EXPLORE GUANACASTE'S PACIFIC BEACHES

    One of the biggest advantages of Casa Pura Vida is its location near the spectacular Pacific beaches of Guanacaste.

    The surrounding coastline is home to beautiful beaches ranging from quiet and secluded stretches of sand to internationally recognized surfing destinations.

    Explore Playa Lagarto, Playa Junquillal, Playa Negra, Playa Avellanas, Playa Marbella, Playa Ostional, and other beaches throughout the region, depending on your interests and daily itinerary.

    Some beaches are perfect for swimming and relaxing, while others are better known for surfing, fishing, snorkeling, or simply watching the sunset.

    Beach hopping is one of the best ways to experience Guanacaste.

    Rent a vehicle, pack your beach bag, choose a direction, and see where the day takes you.

    SURFING IN GUANACASTE

    Guanacaste is one of Costa Rica's most popular regions for surfing.

    The coastline around Playa Lagarto provides access to numerous surf beaches, making Casa Pura Vida a great choice for surfers who want to explore different breaks rather than stay in one resort area.

    Experienced surfers can discover new waves throughout the region, while beginners can arrange surf lessons at several nearby destinations.

    Even if you're not a surfer, watching experienced surfers ride the waves can be an enjoyable part of a beach day.

    For families, beaches throughout the region provide opportunities for swimming, sandcastle building, beachcombing, and sunset walks.

    WILDLIFE & NATURE

    Costa Rica is internationally recognized for its incredible biodiversity, and Playa Lagarto is a wonderful place to experience that natural environment.

    The surrounding area is home to a wide variety of wildlife.

    • White-faced capuchin monkeys

    • Iguanas

    • Tropical birds

    • Parrots

    • Butterflies

    • Geckos

    • Lizards

    • Other native wildlife

    Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed, but part of the fun is not knowing what you might see.

    Keep your camera nearby and your eyes open.

    Early mornings and late afternoons are often excellent times for wildlife watching when temperatures are cooler and animals may be more active.

    For birdwatchers, the tropical vegetation around Playa Lagarto can provide excellent opportunities to observe Costa Rica's colorful birdlife.
