The three villas at Caballitos del Mar can be rented at the same time for family reunions, weddings, yoga retreats, or any large group that desires beachfront convenience and excellent accommodations. Since the villas are virtually identical, no one in the party will feel short-changed. The maximum capacity is 25, in nine bedrooms and two open-air lofts, but it’s ideal for up to 18 adults. Each of the villas has its own tiled pool, and each as a short, private path down to Playa Dominical.

To ease the burden of playing host to a large group, various vendors offer services to take the load off. One of our favorites is The Private Chef, a local company that can cater your event, or even just provide catering for a family that wants to take the night off. We’ve used them several times and everyone thought the food was “¡muy bien!” They can also provide a bartender, and everyone who has selected the bartender has enjoyed the freedom from making everyone else’s drinks!

We can also arrange for additional cleaning, excursions to the popular eco-tourism locations, and other services that will make your stay pleasurable and memorable. This is offered by our property management company, YouGetHere, which receives consistently great reviews from our guests.

We’re often asked “which is the best of the three?” The main differences are the color of stone used in the floor and some decorating items, and also how the villas sit on the property. Villa Norte and Central tend to look more towards the breaking surf and have fewer trees between them and the ocean. Villa Sur is tucked away behind some vine covered trees that are easily 80’ tall, with lush flowering plants on three sides. The pools are identical, and lush gardens provide privacy naturally. While each villa has its advocates, no one has ever been disappointed by the proximity to the beach, and the mixture of jungle and luxury.
