Villa Arcadia, Santa Teresa

Nestled in the lush hillsides of Santa Teresa, Costa Rica, Villa Arcadia embodies the perfect harmony between tropical serenity and refined sophistication. Set on nearly 7,500 m² of pristine landscape, this private estate offers over 500 m² of living space thoughtfully designed for comfort, elegance, and connection with nature.


Design & Layout

The main residence hosts six beautifully appointed bedrooms, including two master suites and four additional rooms that all provide the same master-level comfort. Each bedroom features an en-suite bathroom, dressing area, television, and full air conditioning. Two separate kitchens—one for guests and one for staff—ensure seamless service during private stays or large gatherings.

An exclusive guesthouse, completed shortly after the main villa, elevates the property even further. This secluded suite features a bedroom, bathroom, and private deck overlooking the jungle. Unused since completion, it boasts the highest level of craftsmanship and finishes, making it the most luxurious retreat on the estate.


Comfort & Amenities

Outside, Villa Arcadia unfolds as a private sanctuary of leisure and wellness.

Two pools—one heated and one cold—invite relaxation in any season.

A fully equipped outdoor gym, ice bath, and suspended jungle net provide opportunities for both fitness and serenity.

The open-air dining lounge, accommodating up to 30 guests, is adorned with custom-made Belgian designer furniture, creating an atmosphere of casual elegance.

An automatic generator guarantees uninterrupted power, while two water tanks with a combined capacity of 10,000+ liters ensure peace of mind during dry months.


Operational Excellence

Supporting its luxurious lifestyle, the property includes dedicated staff quarters for up to four team members, ensuring continuous service and meticulous maintenance. A secure parking area for six vehicles, an electric gate, and strategic landscaping enhance both privacy and security.


Setting & Experience

Villa Arcadia offers rare mountain and jungle views, a natural privilege in the Santa Teresa area. The estate’s thoughtful design, recent 2024 renovation, and unmatched attention to detail make it not just a residence—but a sanctuary for discerning individuals seeking a refined yet grounded tropical lifestyle.
