The Space:
Sea light filters through open rooms as a warm Caribbean breeze moves through the villa. Outside, the pool glimmers under a broad blue sky, and the beach - less than five minutes on foot, without needing to leave the complex - waits just beyond the palms. At Calablanca Residences on Isla Barú, days have their own quiet rhythm: unhurried, sun-drenched, and easy.
The space
This four-bedroom villa at Calablanca Residences is designed for generous, relaxed living. It sleeps up to 12 guests across seven beds and five-and-a-half bathrooms, with expansive interiors that open naturally toward the outdoors. Airy communal spaces flow from one room to the next, and a private entrance ensures your group comes and goes with ease.
Sleeping arrangements
Four bedrooms spread comfortably across the villa, each designed to rest well after long days in the water and sun. Bed linens, towels, hangers, and clothing storage are provided throughout, so arriving feels effortless.
Outdoor living
A large private swimming pool anchors the outdoor space, surrounded by a patio with outdoor furniture for long afternoons of doing very little at all. The beach is less than 5 minutes away on foot, without needing to leave the complex. Outdoor showers are on hand for rinsing off after a swim, and a backyard extends the space further. The residence's private beach - 167 metres long and 37 metres wide - is lined with sunbeds, large cushions, and Bali-style cabanas, with a 60-metre dock extending into the water, able to receive boats of up to 60 feet.
Wellness and recreation
Shared amenities at Calablanca Residences are thoughtfully designed for both rest and activity. The spa features separate entrances, jacuzzis, a steam room, sauna, and massage cabins. Use of the sauna and jacuzzi comes at no additional charge - you only need to make a reservation through your Concierge. Massages have an additional cost and can be requested through your assigned Concierge. The gym is equipped with cardio machines, weights, and pilates equipment, while the game room offers a pool table, ping pong table, foosball, and TV for evenings spent together.

The fully equipped kitchen has everything your group needs: refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, hot water kettle, toaster, wine glasses, and a full set of cooking basics, dishes, and silverware. A dining table seats the group comfortably, and a BBQ grill is available for open-air evenings. A barbecue setup with utensils is included for those who prefer cooking outdoors.
