When you want PRIVACY, Villa Casa Blanca allows a completely private SANCTUARY just for you, your family and friends....and with the most amazing views stretching from the Cabo Blanco National Park to Samara Beach with sunsets that will leave you breathless. We are just a minutes from the beaches and Santa Teresa. This Villa provides you complete privacy without any neighbors and is one of the most modern Villas in the area. The Villa is located just minutes away from all the restaurants and groceries stores. We can help you arrange all activities including recommending private chefs.

You will have your private home without neighbors and with the most amazing vistas. Sunsets are magnificent as you sit in the 22m pool or on the pool lounge to enjoy the end of the day. As we are not in Santa Teresa with all the lights, you can enjoy the amazing view of the celestial stars. This is privacy at it's best!
And being next to Cabo Blanca National Park, you have the benefits of all that nature brings to this area - monkeys, birds, ocelots, kinkajous, parakeets, Jaguaraundi, Toucans and so much more. It's like nature in your backyard.
See all the reviews from our guests - we are what we say we are and so much more. We provide a first class services for our clients and tailor everything to their needs. Simply as us any questions and we will help you. If you want a chef, a massage, yoga lessons, etc., you just have to ask and we will arrange it all.
Casa Blanca is certainly one of the most desirable houses in Mal Pais/Santa Teresa:
Magnificent 22 meter Infinity Pool
Outdoor BBQ/Dining patio with Gas BBQ and Green Egg with Seating for 8 with Sunshade Umbrella.

Whether you want to swim laps or just drift in the pool, you will enjoy the serenity and quiet Villa Casa Blanca has to offer.... and with the sound of nature at your doorstep.
Casa Blanca is a very modern two-story house with four spacious bedrooms (all with amazing views) and three exquisite, Italian-tiled bathrooms - all the modern conveniences and designer touches that make each room something very special. The rooms have ITunes, Cable, TVs, Air-Conditioning, WIFI.
This modern house is just a few minutes from the Mar Azul Beach perched on the hilltop allowing you total tranquility with the most breath-taking views of the Pacific Ocean. Walk up to the third story Roof Terrace (complete with mini-bar) where you can sit and watch the monkeys and reach up and touch the fluffy clouds gently flowing overhead - and at night pluck the stars from the sky.
The House: We were one of the featured houses for 2012 in Central/South America for the Best Design. We are very proud of our architects - Isobel and Rebecca! They've truly designed something that suits the area but is totally modern and spacious - wood floor in bedrooms to be soft on the foot to polished granite floors downstairs making it a very modern look.
The Area: Mal Pais has a wonderful private Swedish Beach - Playa Seuco - nestled quietly next to the Cabo Blanca National Park Entrance. So, if you want to find that secluded beach, this is the place to go. But, there are many other beaches along the coast and each with it's own qualities: Playa Carmen, Playa Mar Azul, Playa Hermosa, Playa Santa Teresa, and Playa Manzanillo.
Just nearby is the Mal Pais Fishing Village where you can either get a boat and go fishing yourself or simply enjoy that catches of the day each morning and afternoon.... the fish are fresh and the will filet and prepare this for you a you need.
There are plenty of local restaurants and grocery stores (about 6 - 8 pending season) to choose from. We also have an Organic Market every Saturday afternoon at Playa Carmen. And we have an Organic Grocery in Santa Teresa - GREEN WORLD.
And of course the beaches are the best in Costa Rica. Long, empty stretches of beaches with the best waves for beginners to intermediates. There are fantastic natural tide pools where you can relax and enjoy the warm waters of Costa Rica in peace.
The dining experience of the area ranges from typical Tico food to very special restaurants that serve a fantastic variety of cuisine - Mexican, French, Fusion Japanese, Asian, Indian, Italian and much more. We can provide you with a complete list of restaurants in the area. It changes from season to season so be sure to ask the Caretaker (or us) for the latest and greatest.
Activities: You will find an endless amount of things to choose from: Surfing, Swimming, Yoga, Paddle Boarding, Massage, Tai Chai, Capoiera, Hiking in the National Park, Zip Lining above the Montezuma Waterfalls, cliff diving at the Waterfalls, Tortuga Island where you can snorkel and scuba dive, fishing (fantastic and amazing fish), and much, much more.

Summary: This is our tenth or eleventh time staying at Casa Blanca and every year the owners make improvements beyond our expectations. The staff takes care of every need and makes sure we have clean towels, fresh linens and the 2 ice machines make sure you never run out, which is important

Summary: We have been coming to Mal Pais/Santa Teresa for many years and we would never stay anywhere besides Casa Blanca!! The owners, Michael and Juan Carlos, are continually updating, renovating and improving everything down to the last detail. It gets better every year!! The caretakers, Eduardo, Maria and family are absolutely wonderful and we look forward to seeing Lucy the dog every year! They are all like family to us after staying at Casa Blanca for over 10 years. You will not find a better location, house, pool or view in Mal Pais/Santa Teresa.

Summary: When we began our search for a place to rent in Costa Rica we were struck by the beautiful pictures and the many five star reviews of Casa Blanca so we decided to choose this house for our family vacation. From the moment we reserved the house Mike was beyond helpful and answered all of our questions. When we arrived we were blown away by the beautiful grounds and the house! It's even better than in the pictures. The gate opens and you feel like you have been transported to paradise! We were also greeted by the best meal ever prepared by Maria which was so nice considering our long travel day. The pool overlooking the ocean is amazing and long enough to do laps. All the bedrooms are so comfortable and our family of 5 (2 adults and three older kids age 23,21,18) had more than enough room. Mike suggested getting an ATV (we had a car too) and that turned out to be so much fun!! The ride to the house is not far from town and an fun ride to the beach. Some days no one even wanted to go to the beach because the house hang was so amazing!! We have rented many times in the area and Casa Blanca is by far the best house we have stayed in. We are already counting the days until we can come back!! Thank you Mike for all your help and suggestions which made our trip seamless, and thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home. Also a huge thanks to Maria and Eduardo for taking such good care of us throughout the week!! We loved every minute.

Summary: My family has rented vacation homes for over 20 years and the Villa Casa Blanca experience was the best we have ever had. The house and grounds are very well maintained. The design of the house is architecturally stunning. All four bedrooms were very beautiful. The negative edge 22m lap pool was exactly as pictured and in great shape. We used it extensively both for laps and general hangout fun. The kitchen, cooking equipment and exceptional outdoor kitchen with a large Big Green Egg smoker and high end Napolean gas grill were fantastic and although we had planned to eat out most evenings we ended up cooking at the villa 3 nights. The pre-trip information provided by Michael was abundant and clear. As the villa access could be quite daunting upon first arrival, Michael made sure that we were met in Santa Teresa and escorted to the house. As we arrived after dark that this was a particularly welcome service. A 4x4 vehicle was a must. Throughout our stay Michael continued to be most helpful with regards to activity bookings, recommending and connecting us with a private boat tour operator, a private chef for a catered dinner on Xmas day, and surfing lessons. We had a problem with one of the A/C units and Michael ensured that it was promptly taken care of. The couple taking care of the house and providing housekeeping services were excellent. Thank you Maria and Eduardo for all your help. I only wish we were better able to communicate in Spanish. Vai Toronto, On

Summary: Arriving at Casa Blanca leaves you speechless. The picture simply does not compare to what you find. This Villa is certainly one of the best Villas we’ve stayed in over the many years. The attention to detail is magnificent. The layout of the house allows each person in each room to have their privacy and independence. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook - if that’s what you want. And the views from the Living Room and Dining Room over the Ocean at Sunset are simply sublime. And the list goes on with an amazing dining/BBQ area totally equipped, a pool lounge area that’s totally chill out. And then it goes on. The Massage/Yoga Cabin, the workout area, the private spaces of the Day Bed and the lower walks through a magnificent garden. The lush and tropical planting is carefully planned. The bedrooms are spacious with Air Con, sealed rooms (for those of us who don’t need creepy crawlies from the tropics). The internet is perfect for those of us working remotely or needing to keep in touch. And of course the infinity pool overlooking the expansive ocean is one where we spent every day but especially sunsets. The views are stunning as the house if completely private with views to the jungle and to the ocean. Our team had an amazing and peaceful stay. Santa Teresa is just minutes away and there are so many great restaurants, boutiques and grocery stores. What a special place. Thanks you Casa Blanca Team!

Summary: We have stayed at Casa Blanca several times and each year gets better! This year the pool has totally been retiled (beautiful infinity pool) and there is an additional pellet ice maker, along with the large cube icemaker that never goes empty! The caretakers Eduardo and Maria will cater to your every need and I highly recommend having them make dinner or afternoon drinks for you (ask for the passionfruit margarita). Also ask Eduardo to book a massage under the cantilevered cliff side canopy overlooking the ocean. Casa Blanca is incredibly safe (as is Mal Pais), with a security gate, non-obtrusive fencing around the property and our favorite security guard-Lucy the house dog. She will keep the iguanas away from the pool and is gentle and sweet as can be. Words cannot express how great this paradise is!

Summary: This was our 9th trip to Casa Blanca and we have already started planning our next trip back! If you are coming to Santa Teresa/Mal Pais this is the best property! The pool, landscaping and views of the ocean are incredible. You have everything that you need at the house. It is fun to explore the area but we always look forward to coming back to Casa Blanca! The owners and caretakers of the house have become family and this has become our home away from home. It is the most special place!

Summary: My family (wife and 4 kids ages 17, 19, 21 and 23) had a wonderful stay at Casa Blanca from late December through the New Year. The experience started within days of confirming our reservation, with the host Mike reaching out and sending a comprehensive package on the house, the local area things to do and restaurant recommendations. The whole team was very helpful with the pre-arrival arrangements and great suggestions for transportation and activities and Mike made himself available for a call to talk through details of the trip. All the recommendations and events that the team provided were perfect and helped make the entire trip a hit for the whole family. Some of the highlights were the great restaurant recommendations, fishing trip, surf lessons and snorkeling. Quad bikes (highly recommended) were a fun way to move around town and explore the area. The house and setting were even more beautiful than depicted in the pictures and provided a relaxed environment with plenty of privacy and a great roof-top deck to watch the sunset and do some star gazing. Equally as important, Eduardo and Maria were great in their caretaker roles in being attentive and responsive, but unobtrusive. They also cooked for us at the house and provided one of the best traditional Costa Rican meals we had the whole trip. We will definitely be back!

Summary: We arrived back to Casa Blanca. It amazes us each time we return. The Villa simply gets better each year with new surprises. And the garden is truly a botanical experience which attracts so many wonderful animals, birds and other wild life. Magic. After a week, we feel blissful and ready for 2024. Thanks Maria and Eduardo.
