Property details

5 min to beach-private pool-great for couples Casa Satori – Your Private Oasis Near Playa Hermosa A private one-bedroom retreat with a den, nestled between the popular beach towns of Dominical and Uvita. If you're looking for an authentic Costa Rican experience—away from gated expat communities—this is the perfect place to immerse yourself in the local culture while staying just minutes from some of the best beaches, waterfalls, and outdoor adventures in Costa Rica. This unique property consists of two separate buildings, offering a perfect balance of privacy and open-air living: ✔ Master Suite – A peaceful bedroom sanctuary with a comfortable bed and en-suite bathroom. ✔ Living & Kitchen Pavilion – A fully equipped kitchen and cozy living space in a separate structure, allowing for a seamless connection with nature. Step outside and enjoy: ✔ Your own private swimming pool – perfect for cooling off after a day of adventure. ✔ Lush tropical garden – home to vibrant flowers, butterflies, and native plants. ✔ Wildlife at your doorstep – wake up to the sounds of tropical birds, spot howler monkeys in the trees, and enjoy Costa Rica’s rich biodiversity. ✔ Mountain breezes and dark, peaceful nights – hear the distant sound of the ocean as you unwind in nature’s tranquility. ✔ Complete privacy – a true escape from the crowds, yet close to everything. Unbeatable Location ✔ 5 minutes to Playa Hermosa – One of the most stunning beaches on the Pacific coast, with lifeguards on duty most days. ✔ 10 minutes to Dominical & Uvita – Surfing, yoga, organic markets, and vibrant local culture. ✔ Short drive to incredible waterfalls – Swim in refreshing natural pools. ✔ 1 hour to Manuel Antonio National Park – Costa Rica’s most famous national park, home to sloths, monkeys, and pristine beaches. Adventure & Nature – Be Prepared! Costa Rica is wild and beautiful, offering unforgettable experiences—but part of its charm is its raw, natural environment. Expect to encounter insects, tropical wildlife, and unpredictable weather. The well-prepared guest will embrace these elements as part of the adventure. Additionally: ✔ Dark and quiet nights – perfect for stargazing and peaceful sleep. ✔ Plan your arrival accordingly – We highly recommend arriving before sunset, as Costa Rican roads can be dark and challenging to navigate at night.

Wow a beautiful property Loved the pool and the fact the 2 building was sepated was awsome! Room and the kitchen! The place wss Hard to find when you arrived at night not to much lights to inter the property. Use the direction longitude, latitude To make sure you arrived at the good spot. Need for sure a four x four The 4x4 suzuki vitara was okay but not more Otherwise everythings was excellente. Highlightd: the guest book was helpfull with all of the recommandations. All we needed Thanks for everythings! Julie and Pat Response: Thank you so much, Julie and Pat, for the wonderful 5-star review! We’re so thrilled to hear that Casa Satori left such a great impression — the beautiful property, the pool, the separated buildings for added privacy, the comfortable rooms, and the well-equipped kitchen are all things we take great pride in. We’re also so glad the guest book and its recommendations came in handy during your stay — we put a lot of thought into those local tips! We appreciate your honest and helpful feedback about arriving at night and the lighting at the property entrance — that is genuinely useful advice for future guests and we will look into improving the lighting to make nighttime arrivals easier. Your tip about using longitude and latitude coordinates is also a great practical suggestion that we will incorporate into our guest communications going forward. And thank you for the helpful note about the 4x4 requirement — always important for guests planning their visit to Playa Hermosa! Thank you for choosing Osa Property Management / Costa Rica Las Villas — we’d love to welcome you both back, whether it’s to Casa Satori again or to any of our 85+ properties across Costa Rica!
