Great Villa, perfect for family vacations

Perfect for our family of 10

Beautiful ocean view and morning sun rises. The living area is comfortable.

We all had a fabulous time here. The views were amazing. The very best was watching the sunrise, every room offered wonderful views of this. Our days were filled with sunbathing, surfing, walks on the beach, eating, playing games, and the occasional siesta. The villa was within walking distance to local restaurants and a quick Uber to town.

The house is large, comfortable, and clean. The WiFi is fast, kitchen is stocked, and plenty of towels and blankets. The pool is amazing and directly on the beach. The house is right next to the public beach access parking lot so there were a lot of surfers and families at the beach - never crowded, but kept it fun. If you like to surf, you are 50 steps to Zippers or a 5 min walk to Pescadito & the Rock. House is 10/10.

Exactly what he wanted, a spot on the beach where we could walk out and surf everyday. Costa Azul was the perfect spot for that. The villa was beautiful, well equipped and exactly what we needed. Kyla helped me plan catered meals in the villa, dinners out and excursions prior to our arrival, while Pablo helped us plan in villa spa treatments, taxi service and everything else while we were there. Highly recommend this location too! So easy to get to everything from here.

Villa Costa Azul offers beautiful sunrises and evening sky at sunset. You won’t need to use your car; there are two fantastic restaurants just a short stroll down the beach! It’s evident that this location is beloved by the locals who often bring their dogs and kids to the beach. When the locals endorse a spot, you can be sure it’s something special! I haven’t experienced relaxation like this in years, and having the surf break right in front of us was a dream come true for our adult children! The house itself was spacious and equipped with everything we needed for barbecues, playing games, and cherishing quality family time. Everyone on the Cabovillas team was excellent to work with; from travel planning to grocery service. The housekeeper Lucy is sweet and thorough. We couldn’t ask for more! Without a doubt, we’ll be returning!

You feel like you are surrounded by ocean and can dip your toes in the water inside the house. To the left, miles of sandy beach running past San Jose. Straight ahead, beautiful waves and surfers riding them. To the right, rocky shore and cliffs down to Palmilla. Really spectacular view. The house is spacious, clean, and freshly updated with new counters, appliances and bathrooms (with really nice new marble showers). We couldn't ask for a better area. We do not surf but love to be in the water, and spent a lot of time playing in the waves and snorkeling on the reef out front. There were a lot of locals and tourists surfing and taking surf lessons. Locals were spear fishing on the reef too. We saw whales breaching and splashing their tails out front. It looked like mama and baby whales. You could just sit on the patio, or any room of the house, and watch them playing out past the surfers. The house is convenient to restaurants on the beach. We LOVE Pescadito Break Restaurant! So many amazing fresh seafood options and margaritas literally on the beach, only a 2 minute walk from the house! Zippers Bar and Grill next to it was also great and fun. Two great coffee shops a short walk down the beach: one with a cool outdoor courtyard, and the other called El Wine Shop, that has THE best coffee I've ever had (from Chiapas)! There are also a number of restaurants just a walk down the beach that we didn't get to try. You could walk to a new restaurant every night for weeks. All the fun restaurants and activities of San Jose are also really close and easy to Uber into town from the house. We will definitely be back next year.
