Villas CaletasCosta Rica's Learning Adventure's Selection for the Luxury Pacific Coast Retreat:
Our Hotel design is influenced by the charm of French-colonial arquitecture and Victorian homes still found in San José, Costa Rica.
Your every comfort has been considered while you are surrounded by the authentic and nostalgic atmosphere of our hotel.
VILLA CALETAS combines the truly unique concept of both mountain and seaside resort. Its location and design offer seaside breezes along with the mountains air freshness.
Its exceptional hilltop location more than 1150 feet above the ocean, combined with turn-of-the century style, gives Villa Caletas a unique position among the resorts, hotels and restaurants of Costa Rica. A jewel above the crashing sea.
The tropical setting receives constant, cooling breezes from the Pacific. The spectacular 360 degree panoramic view offers an unsurpassed vista of the Nicoya Peninsula, gulf islands, the crescent beaches of Jacó, Herradura and Punta Leona as well as the mountains.
Restaurants and Bars
Villa Caletas has two restaurants with bars: the open-air EL MIRADOR, and the enclosed EL ANFITEATRO. In both restaurants, our chefs create tantalizing, international dishes. Views of the coastline complete the dining experience, changing to memorable sunsets with the evening meal. Relax over your favorite drink and enjoy the most incredible 360-degree vista of the Nicoya Gulf. Seating 150 people, the Greek-style structure with Ionic columns schedules classical concerts at certain times of the year.
The Pool
The vast, deep-blue pool with an "infinity" edge creates the illusion of being one with the ocean. Adding to its splendor are a miniature waterfall, an island of tropical plants, and natural-rock facing. Serenity reigns at this magnificent pool area, in keeping with the atmosphere all around the hotel.
Caletas Amphitheatre
Dramatic describes the Greek amphitheater at Villas Caletas! Eight Ionic columns grace the 150-capacity structure overlooking the Pacific Ocean and a primary forest. Concerts and arts performances take place here during the year.
Meeting and Special Events
With the exclusive touch that characterizes Villas Caletas, we provide the 20-person SALA MARTIGUEZ for meetings. Available for larger groups of up to 50 people is SALA ANFITEATRO offering the same impeccable service. For executive meetings, a full range of audio-visual equipment is accessible.
Overlooking a beautiful coastline, the breathtaking views bring the country to life. Villa Caletas is located in the Central Pacific coast of Costa Rica, on a jungle hilltop. From each side of the mountain, rain forests spread to the sandy, quiet beaches below. The dark, emerald green of this wild, native vegetation contrasts with the blues of the Pacific Ocean. Views of lush tropical rainforests complement some of the most breathtaking sunsets you will witness. At the bottom of the mountain, Villa Caletas offers its own private beach.
