ABOUT THE PROPERTY
This minimal carbon footprint 3 bedroom villa with expansive infinity pool is situated 400 meters above sea level, offering enjoyably cooler temperatures over what you might find down by the beach (just a quick 15 minute drive away). Enjoy this ideal location where the mountains literally meet the vast Pacific Ocean, and the breezes are nearly infinite. The incredible lushness of this unique mountain coastline area is sometimes compared to Hawaii and other world famous natural meccas.
The villa is located off the beaten track and is backed by a great second growth forest which hosts all kinds of wonderful flora and fauna for your enjoyment, yet is just a few minutes’ drive to the warm waters of Dominical beach. The ever popular Tinamastes organic farmer’s market is also just a couple of kilometers away (held every Tuesday morning).
Built to be thermally cooling, Villa Saltamontes boasts fresh Pacific breezes throughout the entire home, making it an extremely comfortable environment without the need of any air conditioning. To top it off, the solar panels located on the roof reduce the property’s carbon footprint even further by providing all the hot water you might need.
One of the other great features is the wall to wall glass sliding doors that face the ocean, which retract completely into the walls on either side opening up the whole living area of the villa to the shimmering infinity pool and the gorgeous ocean and sunset views beyond.
The sleek modern architectural design offers functionality and privacy, and the solid concrete walls do a wonderful job of keeping the elements outdoors where they belong. To soften the overall feel of the place, the villa is accented by hardwoods and solid teak furniture throughout. Large glass windows are found in every room of the villa, offering guests views of the jungle forest and its inhabitants as well as gorgeous mountain and ocean views.
The kitchen with its array of premium appliances, has a full size breakfast bar, and is open to the dining and living areas making it wonderful for entertaining.
The three smartly spaced out bedrooms consist of one master bedroom with a king bed, en-suite bathroom which has two sinks, large closet with a work space, and private access to the pool area as well as ocean views. The second bedroom is made up of one queen bed, plenty of closet space, its own access to the pool area as well as ocean views. A shared bathroom is located between the second and third bedroom. You will find two twin beds and a large closet in the third bedroom, with windows that look into the jungle forest.
Luxury meets practical with extra amenities that include a premium water filtration system so you can enjoy the delicious drinking water without any worries, a covered car port right by the main entrance to the villa for extra convenience, a separate laundry room with top of the line washer and dryer for guests use, and a covered poolside patio with a stainless steel barbecue for those who like to cook outdoors.
A good 4×4 vehicle is needed to access this villa.

“Long drive from the airport but was well worth it! Place not to far from other towns, I enjoyed driving to explore. views from the house are beautiful, I love that the pool was private. Overall amazing place, had no regrets. Louey and Jessica were great!”
We had a wonderful time at this house. We were the first renters so there were a few glitches but any issues we had the host fixed them quickly and was very apologetic. He helped us book our excursions and gave us information about the closest town “dominical”. Dominical is a surf town and was very charming with lots of good restaurants. The locals were very helpful and welcoming. The views from the villa were stunning and we are glad we chose a house away from the beach. A 4 wheel drive car is completely necessary for this house and it is also helpful for getting around Costa Rica in general. Overall very great experience, attentive host, and happy with this villa.
A beautiful home 15 minutes up the mountain road from Dominical. We stayed for 18 days. Communication was excellent and any issues were handled without delay. The house itself is a much newer modern build overlooking the mountains, and even more beautiful in person, than in the photos(and the photos look great). The local town has everything you’ll need for groceries with much larger stores just a short drive away. The drive in – dirt road and quite steep in sections, so I would definitely recommend a 4×4. Would highly recommend this villa, you’ll have zero regrets.
