Design
is influenced by the charm of French-colonial arquitecture and Victorian
homes still found in San José, Costa Rica.
Your every comfort has been considered while you are surrounded
by the authentic and nostalgic atmosphere of our hotel.
VILLA CALETAS combines the truly unique concept of both mountain
and seaside resort. Its location and design offer seaside breezes
along with the mountains air freshness.
Its exceptional hilltop location more than 1150 feet above the ocean,
combined with turn-of-the century style, gives Villa Calletas a
unique position among the resorts, hotels and restaurants of Costa
Rica. A jewel above the crashing sea.
The tropical setting receives constant, cooling breezes from the
Pacific. The spectacular 360 degree panoramic view offers an unsurpassed
vista of the Nicoya Peninsula, gulf islands, the crescent beaches
of Jacó, Herradura and Punta Leona as well as the mountains.
Restaurants and Bars
Villa Caletas has two restaurants with bars: the open-air EL MIRADOR,
and the enclosed EL ANFITEATRO. In both restaurants, our chefs create
tantalizing, international dishes. Views of the coastline complete
the dining experience, changing to memorable sunsets with the evening
meal. Relax over your favorite drink and enjoy the most incredible
360-degree vista of the Nicoya Gulf. Seating 150 people, the Greek-style
structure with Ionic columns schedules classical concerts at certain
times of the year.
The Pool
The vast, deep-blue pool with an "infinity" edge creates
the illusion of being one with the ocean. Adding to its splendor
are a miniature waterfall, an island of tropical plants, and natural-rock
facing. Serenity reigns at this magnificent pool area, in keeping
with the atmosphere all around the hotel.
Caletas Amphitheatre
Dramatic describes the Greek amphitheater at Villas Caletas! Eight
Ionic columns grace the 150-capacity structure overlooking the Pacific
Ocean and a primary forest. Concerts and arts performances take
place here during the year.

Overlooking a beautiful coastline, the breathtaking views bring
the country to life. Villa Caletas is located in the Central Pacific
coast of Costa Rica, on a jungle hilltop. From each side of the
mountain, rain forests spread to the sandy, quiet beaches below.
The dark, emerald green of this wild, native vegetation contrasts
with the blues of the Pacific Ocean. Views of lush tropical rainforests
complement some of the most breathtaking sunsets you will witness.
At the bottom of the mountain, Villa Caletas offers its own private
beach.
