Bahia Pez Vela -1 Minute Walk to Secluded Beach, Ocean View and Infinity Pools!

Villa Toucan is a delightful Three Bedroom villa with 2.5 bathrooms nestled in a secluded cove 25 minutes from Liberia's International Airport. Ocean view, 1 min walk to beach, pool and restaurant. You can see and hear both the ocean waves and howler monkeys from this Villa!

The Villa is steps from the beach in the Bahia Pez Vela Resort next to Playa Octotal and 5 kilometers from Playa del Coco. This resort is the ONLY property on this secluded beach that has an abundance of peace and quiet. This villa is one of the beach area villas (second row from beach) so it is an easy, less than a minute, walk to the beach, main pool and restaurant. You can hear waves of the Pacific and chatter of the howler monkeys in the nearby trees from this fully equipped two level home and see Hummingbirds check out the flowers we've planted just for them. You'll also have unlimited access to our small gated community's two pools, restaurant and sea kayaks. The resort has wireless internet, accessible from the villa.

At low tide, you can walk to Playa Ocotal which is a bigger beach and has a few restaurants and hotels. It's otherwise a quick (5 km) drive to Playa Coco which is a bustling town with tons of water sports, restaurants and shops. There are plentiful activities near the villa including scuba diving, fishing, snorkeling, whale watching, bird watching, and canopy tours. You can even get a massage on the beach.

The Villa has a living room, full kitchen and dining area, outdoor patio with seating area and bbq and three bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The Master BR has a king bed, private bathroom and outdoor balcony. The second bedroom is perfect for a family with kids or just kids having 3 twin beds . The third BR has a queen bed and fold out couch (folds into a large twin/small double). The living room couch also folds into a queen bed and we have an air mattress that can be inflated for one more soul.

Villa also has high speed fiberoptic wireless internet to keep up with work (if you want), ceiling fans and air conditioning so you can tailor your comfort level, washing machine - dryer, a washer-dryer so you can pack light and stay fresh, fresh linens and beach towels, TV with Amazon Firestick to access your Amazon, Hulu, Netflix accounts, microwave, dvd player, dishwasher. and many kitchen accoutrements (blender, toaster, coffee maker).

Within a short drive there are ample opportunities for all the activities Costa Rica is known for: hiking, birdwatching, canoeing, white water rafting, canopy tours, turtle watching, hot spring hopping, monkeying around with monkeys, wildlife watching, coffee plantation tours, mountain biking, horseback riding and more.

Villa Toucan is within 1.5 hour drive of three volcanoes
(Tenorio, Miravalles and Ricon de la Vieja), several national
parks (Palo Verde, Ricon de la Vieja, Tenorio, Santa Rosa,
Playa Grande) and dozens of day trip activities including
bird watching, canopy tours, fishing, horseback riding, rafting, hiking, scuba diving, and turtle watching. The two Costa Rica most famous tourist destinations: Arenal Volcano and Monteverde Cloud Forest are a 2-3 hour drive away. The concierge at Bahia Pez Vela can arrange all of these excursions and activities. Or just sit at the beach, enjoy the peace and quiet, get a massage and do nothing. Whatever suits you!

Beautiful beach
What a lovely vacation at Villa Toucan. Jackie and Cesar were very friendly and accommodating. The air conditioner broke and was replaced the same day. The owner of the property was also very prompt to respond to our inquiries. We used local taxis to get to Coco Beach for grocers and some meals. Walking is virtually impossible given the hills and heat. The location is extremely peaceful and we enjoyed sitting outside to bird watch. The beach truly was the highlight for us. We did some snorkeling and saw plenty of fish along the rocks that surrounded it. It was perfect for swimming and had a sandy bottom. This is our 4th time to Costa Rica, we love the local people who are so friendly.

Great location and accommodations
The property is well maintained and beautifully situated on a mostly private bay. Beautiful views and beach. Snorkeling was great right off the beach. We really enjoyed our stay.

A Hidden Gem
We rented Villa #6 in Pez Vela for a short stay in April 2023. We loved the Villa. It had everything we needed. The Kitchen was well stocked with all the things we needed to cook our own meals. Sitting outside at night was wonderful, the lush landscaping is full of tropical plants and trees. The beach is a short walk ( a block ). There is a pool that only the members or renters can use so it is quieter and more private. We ate at the restaurant by the pool. Their food was fabulous. If you like a challenging hike, you can walk from Pez Vela Beach to Ocotal Beach. We would surely rent there again. Side Note: this was during Easter week and all the local people flood the beaches, because Pez Vela is more private the beach was not overcrowded like the other beaches. And the sunsets are out of this world beautiful!

Christmas break in Costa Rica
We had an incredible stay in Ocatal. The location and villa were perfect for our needs traveling with our 3 adult daughters. Plenty of space, house was comfortable, kitchen well equipped, and the location to the beach/pools was ideal. Hope to come back someday.

Costa Roca Family Vacation
This villa was perfect for our family. The resort is down the road from Playa Coco where you can get groceries and any other supplies you might need. The house is well appointed and beds were comfortable. We had a large group, including a 4 year old and the proximity to the beach and pool was perfect.

Paradise in Costa Rica
First of all, we experienced such generous and thoughtful communication with Liz and Henry, who made our entire experience flawless and perfect. They gave us so much advice, which was invaluable as it was our first time to Costa Rica. Our family of 6 adults spent one week at Villa Toucan, which exceeded our expectations. The furniture and decor is comfortable with some updates. While we did think it could maybe have more chairs in the living room for the number of adults we had, there was plenty of space for us all to stretch out. The beds were all very comfortable (We slept so well!); there was a fabulous dining table and the kitchen had all the supplies we needed to make some wonderful meals. We were also grateful for an abundance of beach towels and a laundry room. The location of the townhouse for us was excellent, with close proximity to the beach and pool -- this made going to the ocean oh so easy! And the resort's restaurant (by the pool) is very good. We ate there for New Year's and thoroughly enjoyed it. The nearest town, Coco, is about a 12 minute drive away and had some excellent grocery stores and a fresh fish store, as well as numerous restaurants. We loved that we were in a quiet beach of our own, which was never over crowded. Everyone (residents, guests, staff and locals) was very friendly and we definitely feel we want to return again and again to Villa Toucan and its gorgeous location. This was by far one of our favorite vacations!
