Casa Margarita
About this villa
Why Guests Love It
Guests consistently describe Casa Margarita as a “private resort with soul.” They love the artistic finishes, the serene ocean vistas, and the feeling that every sunrise and sunset were designed just for them. The Zindis team’s attention to detail turns this stunning villa into a truly seamless and personal Costa Rican experience.
Casa Margarita is a rare gem perched above the tranquil bay of Playa Hermosa, where vibrant sunsets meet salt-water infinity edges and handcrafted tilework draws you into a story of luxury, nature and timeless design. This five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath villa accommodates up to 12 guests and opens onto sweeping 180-degree views of the Pacific Ocean — an ideal retreat for families, celebrations or multi-generational escapes.
Step inside and be captivated by the exquisite artistry: hand-painted Nicaraguan floor tiles, richly carved wooden doors and windows, and bespoke décor that echoes Costa Rica’s cultural soul while offering resort-grade comfort. The living area opens directly to the terrace, where lounge chairs and tropical breezes invite you to slow down and savor the moment.
Outside is an entertainer’s dream — your private salt-water infinity pool stretches toward the horizon, accompanied by a cold-plunge tub for post-adventure refreshment. An outdoor shower is tucked into the lush garden, offering a nature-immersed bathing experience. Two separate casitas provide autonomy and space: one features two queen beds, a private bath and wet bar; the other offers a queen bed, private bath and breathtaking ocean view. Between them lies the shaded alfresco kitchen and grill, a deep-travertine tile dining area for eight, and a sectional lounge that bathes in golden-hour light.
The main wing hosts three further bedrooms, each with its own private wooden entrance and refined finishes, ensuring comfort and sanctuary for every guest. Whether you wake to the sun rising over the garden, lounge in the pool as the waves shimmer below, or share cocktails as the sky paints itself each evening, Casa Margarita offers both spectacle and serenity.
Located in the prestigious gated community of Hermosa Heights, you are 20 minutes from Liberia International Airport — ensuring ease of arrival — yet feel a world away from routine. With the calm waters of Playa Hermosa just minutes down the hillside, alongside boutique dining, local sodas and beach-side ambiance, you’ve found the perfect balance between elevated seclusion and coastal access.
Managed by Zindis Hospitality, your stay comes with seamless service, optional concierge experiences and the guarantee that every detail is attended. At Casa Margarita, you don’t just stay — you belong to a moment, a view, a memory.

Guest reviews
“Beautiful home! ”
Beautiful home! Looks even better in person. Communication with Zindis was so amazing and they helped us with everything we could need. They helped us check in and were super responsive with any issues we had. Will be coming back and staying here!
“The house is amazing.”
The house is amazing. The pool and the view cannot be beat. When we visited there was shade by the pool until about 9am then sun all afternoon, be sure to bring sunblock. The hill to the house was hard the first time but having 4wd/awd really helped and it got easier every time. Check in and response time from the concierge was great. We elected to have a chef cook us dinner and it was wonderful: the food was great, chef was nice, and no dishes. Lots of space in the living room for our party of 9. Was nice to have the Casita’s as separate space for some and extra bathrooms. The air-conditioning was perfect.
“We absolutely loved Casa Margarita.”
We absolutely loved Casa Margarita. The house itself was gorgeous and the views were absolutely outstanding. The kitchen was perfect for cooking and we also took advantage of the outdoor grilling area. The pool was so refreshing. It would have been even better if there was an umbrella near the shallow end for a reprieve from the sun. The house was super clean and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment (not seasonings), there were plenty of towels. The rest of the house seemed a bit bare - we would have loved to see some playing cards, board games or books. We loved the Hermosa Heights neighborhood and all the other beautiful homes on the hillside. Unfortunately during our stay both of our kids had painful swimmer’s ear infections from the hot springs near the Arenal volcano, but we couldn’t have imagined a better place to be stuck at home. The views out almost every window never got old and we loved the iguanas, birds and coatis that regularly visited us
“The view alone is worth the price”
The view alone is worth the price. Everything was perfect from check in to check out. The pictures don’t do the place justice! Plenty of towels for everyone to bathe and use the pool, good hair dryers and appliances in kitchen. The beds and linens were extremely comfortable and clean. Thank you to the Hermosa Heights security team for always making sure we were safe!
