Tropical gardens at Nicoya Villas in Mal País, Costa Rica
Our story

Family owned. Personally welcoming.

Nicoya Villas sits 150–200 meters from the Pacific in Mal País — a quiet fishing village on the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula, far from the crowds and close to nature.

Nicoya Villas is family owned and built around a simple idea: give families, friends and groups a comfortable place to slow down, reconnect and enjoy Mal País together.

Four private villas share one tropical pool, a teak gazebo and a garden full of birds. Every villa has air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi, a full kitchen and a private space to retreat to after a day of surf, yoga or jungle hikes. There's spacious private parking inside the property, with controlled access using an entry code.

Pets are part of the family too — they're welcome here. So are large families, surf trips, yoga retreats and anyone looking to slow down. Whether you book one villa or all four, we'll make sure your stay feels personal.
