Waves as Your Companion: Beachfront Elegance
Welcome to Chalet Tropical, a distinguished member of the Pura Villas Luxury Villa Collection.
Here, nature’s symphony takes center stage: the gentle rhythm of waves, unbroken from dawn to dusk and dusk to dawn—a soundtrack woven seamlessly into your journey. The distant call of howler monkeys reverberates through the treetops, a reminder of the untamed wilderness that surrounds you.
As the first golden light of day brushes the horizon, it unveils a path to one of the most breathtaking beaches in the region—a place where Costa Rica’s unspoiled beauty embraces you wholeheartedly. As the day matures, find quiet respite by a shaded river or return to the elegant sanctuary of your villa, a space effortlessly aligned with the lush tapestry of its surroundings.
Chalet Tropical is more than a place to stay—it’s a sanctuary of sophistication and simplicity. Thoughtfully designed with European elegance showcasing the best of local Costa Rican craftmanship.
This 3-bedroom villa offers not only luxurious spaces but a harmonious connection to the natural world. Each spacious bedroom features its own ensuite bathroom, ensuring privacy and convenience for every guest.

Beautiful house. So clean, peaceful, modern, and spacious. Pool was fantastic and it was fun to watch the monkeys, birds, and butterflies from the yard. Convenient location to Uvita and Dominical surf spots. Definitely need high clearance 4x4 for the road to the house for easier access. We had a low 4x4 and hit a lot of rocks, ruts, and deep puddles. Path to beach is a 3 minute walk. Like many beaches in Costa Rica, this one had a bank of rocks and was hard to access at high tide. However there is a dirt trail parallel to the beach that takes you over to beautiful Playa Arco in about 10 minutes. Managers were helpful and quick to respond. Lovely stay.
