Welcome to Villa de las Aves del Paraiso (Birds of Paradise Villa), an exclusive, multi-million dollar, gated, oceanfront home located on the famed South Ridge of the incomparable Guanacaste, Playa Flamingo, Costa Rica!

This spectacular home features over 3,500 square feet of living space that includes 4 beautifully decorated bedroom suites. Each bedroom has a full bath and access to its own private balcony with stunning Pacific Ocean views and front row seats to magnificent bird watching and howler monkey sightings. It's a home perfect for family vacations or a couples getaway!

Beautifully crafted , custom-made, double iron doors greet you upon arrival to the Villa. Entering the home, a professionally decorated, spacious floor plan, lined with a wall of glass bi-fold doors, embraces the essence of indoor-outdoor living. With A/C throughout the property, you will find a fully-equipped, designer kitchen ready to accommodate the chef's every need.

The private backyard area features an ocean view infinity edge pool, BBQ grill, half bath, outdoor shower, cabana, and an ivy covered deck for watching the best sunsets Costa Rica has to offer!

Birds of Paradise Villa is made up of 2.5 floors. The main floor features a half bath, laundry room (with washer, dryer and laundry sink), living room/dining room, a gourmet kitchen, expansive balcony, outdoor grilling area, an office (equipped with Wi-Fi and stunning Pacific Ocean views), and 1 bedroom with a queen bed, en suite bath and private balcony.

The second floor boasts 1 bedroom with a queen bed, en suite bath and private balcony and 1 bedroom with a king bed, en suite bath and private balcony. The next level up is a guest suite equipped with 2 queen beds, en suite bath, a personal wet bar/kitchenette and large private balcony.

In addition to the lap of luxury that Birds of Paradise Villa has to offer, your stay also includes a wonderful, private host/concierge who speaks both English and Spanish. From the moment you book your stay, they will work with you to plan every detail desired to make your vacation complete such as: arrange shuttle services to and from the airport, car and/or golf cart rentals delivered directly to the home for your convenience and without any extra fees, schedule any to all tours/excursions, meal reservations, personal chefs, pre-arrival grocery shopping, in-house massages/manicures/predicures, etc. We use only the best and safest vendors and get our clients the best possible prices. Additionally, they will greet at the house upon your arrival and will be at your service for your entire stay.

Along with your personal concierge you will also receive a complimentary maid service during your stay with additional cleaning available upon request. (*Note: There is a cost associated with more than 1 cleaning per 5 day stay.)

With an easy 50 minute drive from the Liberia International Airport, Birds of Paradise Villa is located just 1/2 mile from Flamingo Beach - one of Central America's most incredible coastal destinations and part of the Costa Rican Riviera. Within walking distance, the pristine clear blue waters, lagoons, vegetation and abundance of activities make Playa Flamingo the perfect location to visit and play!

The Villa sits in the middle of nearly 10 separate beaches - each offering something uniquely different. One of the world's most famous surfing beaches, Playa Grande (also home to Las Baulas National Marine Park - one of the world's most important leatherback turtle nesting sites), is only 10 minutes by car. The busting surf town Tamarindo is close enough to offer you more fun shopping, surf classes, and a bountiful selection of restaurants and nightspots.

Whether you choose to embark on an exhilarating jaunt through the Costa Rican jungle, explore the oceanside hills via ATV, zip-line over majestic waterfalls, or set sail in search of beautiful views and secluded spots of ocean kayaking, snorkeling and swimming, your time in Costa Rica will never be forgotten. In between your choice of activities, we invite you to experience total luxury, comfort, rest and relaxation as a guest of, the one and only, Birds of Paradise Villa.

** The property is equipped with outdoor security cameras and nightly security guard.

*****RECENT GUEST REVIEW*****
We're back! This is our second time to Birds of Paradise Villa. The first time we spent one week and this time we came for two weeks. Just like the first trip, we all had a fabulous time!
We cannot say enough good things about this Villa, its location and its House Manager who planned every moment from our arrival to departure. We enjoyed our breakfasts on the balcony and relaxing by the pool and the beach. The excursions were top notch! We'll most definitely be back for a third trip next year! - Zenny & Friends

    This was the perfect spot for our family to set up over the holidays. We enjoyed evenings overlooking the ocean while the kids played. The concierge and team were excellent. It’s close to our favourite beach. Thanks!

    Traveled to Costa Rica with our family of 5 - first trip! Chose beautiful Birds of Paradise Villa based on reviews and location recommendations. Absolutely stunning views, rooms were comfortable and clean, kitchen was well stocked, pool area was perfect for our crew. Karina and staff were helpful planning and providing information. Location was within a 10 min walk to the beach - difficult walk back UP to the house, but doable. Plenty of great restaurants within 10 - 15 mins. We rented a car and found that super helpful. Five stars across the board!!

    Our group had the absolute best time! Not one single complaint. Everything went super smooth. The house was amazing! Karina was the best of the best. Answered every question I had (and I had a lot) and helped make this trip a memorable one! Bertha was also super sweet and made the best breakfasts! We got Chef Rafael to cook our dinners and we are so glad we did! Best meals ever! We are missing CR already! Can't wait to go back! Don't think twice, book this house!

    Overall the home is amazing. Very clean, comfortable and good amenities. Karina is amazing and is available at a moments notice. She helped us with transportation, scheduling activities, recommendations of restaurants and areas to enjoy. The pool and outdoor areas at the home are amazing. Lots of room to relax and watch the sunset. The Playa Flamingo area is a great little area. The beach area is wonderful, clean and didn’t feel overly crowded. You definitely need a SUV or golf cart to get to and from the home. The home is on a hill next to the beach area and the road is very steep. Walking to and back from the beach would be a workout.

    We couldn’t say enough good things about this property. Beautiful house with wonderful views. Each bedroom with private terrace, on suite bathrooms, lots of storage and comfortable beds were loved by all. The house was spotless and Karina was the best concierge. We will be back for sure!!!!

    We can't say enough about how amazing our visit was. The house was absolutely perfect! There was plenty of space and it was so comfortable. We were definitely spoiled by Karina and the housekeeping staff. They were so attentive and responsive. Karina did our grocery shopping for us and our breakfasts every morning from Fanny were so delicious. They kept the house cleaned each day and even did our laundry. Heather, the property owner, was also very responsive when we had questions. We were so glad we opted for a house instead of a resort. It was so nice to have room for our kids to spread at the end of the day and also space to gather together. The views are amazing from each room and we spent so much time in the pool and on the deck. We did wish we were a little closer to the beach. It is a bit of a hike down, which isn't bad, until you have to hike back up. It is steep, but doable. We still enjoyed plenty of beach time, but opted to drive down. We can't say enough good about this property and staff. Our stay was amazing!

    House and views are stunning. All as presented on-line. A car is a must if you plan to go back and forth to the beach. We loved our stay here and will definitely go back. Karina is an angel and will Make sure your plans happen!

    Property was amazing! Great views! Karina was without a doubt the best concierge/manager we have ever encountered!!!! 6 stars for her. The area is much more laid back compared to Tamarindo. Really good experience. The nearby construction was noticeable but did not bother us. Just part of progress in a very desirable area. No problems with golf carts on big somewhat bumpy hill. We had no car and still easily got to Potrero and supermarkets. Shuttles can be arranged for further excursions. Would definitely stay here again!

    What a gorgeous house - perched high with panoramic views from every room & just beautiful. The host was outstanding and so helpful, the house was spotless, and the extras (pool, kitchen, washers/dryers, etc) made this an outstanding choice for our fairly large group of 8. The location is good, but we used the golf cart as the walk to & from the beach area would be a challenge. Roads aren’t great and no taxi’s really in CR, so outings need ti be planned, but no issues and would definitely endorse this property - and exceptional host - every time
