Villa el Mango is a modern 4BR villa in Nicoya with an infinity-edge saltwater pool, tropical gardens, and open-air living. Walk 10 minutes to Santa Teresa’s beaches, surf breaks, cafés, and restaurants.
The Space
Villa el Mango is a modern luxury villa located in the northern area of Santa Teresa Beach, Costa Rica. Completed in April 2021, this stunning three-level home is situated on a steep hill within a secure neighborhood. Access typically requires a 4x4 vehicle.
The villa is named after the beautiful mango trees that surround the property, blending naturally with the lush tropical environment.
Spanning 200 square meters, Villa el Mango offers:
- Four spacious bedrooms with king-size beds, accommodating up to eight guests
- Four and a half bathrooms
- A large outdoor area featuring a barbecue, dining space, sun loungers, and a striking infinity-edge saltwater pool
On the main floor, you will find three bedrooms, the living room, kitchen, and the entire outdoor area including the barbecue and pool. The fourth bedroom is located on the ground floor, providing additional privacy.
Designed with a clean, modern European aesthetic and high-end finishes, the open floor plan seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living spaces through floor-to-ceiling windows and bi-fold glass doors. This design allows for effortless dining and lounging while enjoying the tropical climate.
A teak deck surrounds the infinity pool, and the gardens with tropical trees complement the villa’s architecture. There is also a guest half bathroom located in the hallway.
The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped, and both ceiling fans and air conditioning offer cooling ventilation alongside the refreshing ocean breeze.
Guest Access
Guests have full access to the entire villa except for the laundry area, which includes the washing machine and dryer. Only the housekeeper has access to this space and is available to assist guests as needed.
Location
Villa el Mango is just a 10-minute walk from the pristine white sand beaches and world-class surf breaks of Santa Teresa. The main road of Santa Teresa, featuring cafes, shops, supermarkets, and restaurants, is also within walking distance.
The access road to the villa is partially paved; the first half is unpaved. Depending on the season, a 4x4 vehicle may be necessary for access—please consult the concierge for details.
It is recommended to have some form of transportation, such as a 4x4 car or ATV, due to the steep streets and the spread-out nature of Santa Teresa, which extends over 7 kilometers. Having a vehicle makes it easier to explore the town and enjoy all its attractions.
Amenities and Services
- On-site security guard providing additional nighttime safety
- Almost 24-hour concierge service available to assist with reservations, organization, and any guest needs
- Quiet and safe neighborhood with a mix of holiday homes and permanent residents living peacefully
This villa offers a tranquil and secure environment, perfect for enjoying the natural beauty and vibrant lifestyle of Santa Teresa.

Amazing. We stayed in several villas in Santa Teresa. Nothing like this. It's amazing. The cleanliness, the trust with Judit. Everything. I hope I can come back here. Congratulations!

Two exceptional weeks at Villa el Mango. The house is just as seen in the photos, even better: spacious, bright, very well equipped and perfectly located north of Santa Teresa, quiet but close to everything. What makes the difference is the people. Judit, the co-manager, is impressively efficient: she responds in minutes, anticipates and resolves everything without you having to insist — transportation, a crib for the baby, ATVs, a rack for the surfboards. Nothing seems complicated to him. And Deysi, the cleaning lady, is simply exceptional 🌸 impeccable professionalism, total discretion, and a kindness that shows in every detail. The house is always spotless and she always has a smile. We will definitely come back. Thanks to Edan, Judit and Deysi for an unforgettable vacation.

Our stay was incredible. We had a group of 7 females in mid 20s and found every part of the home beautiful. It was hard to leave the Airbnb at times because of how beautiful the scenery was from the pool. Judit was exceptional - the most responsive and helpful concierge I’ve ever worked with. She coordinated tours, private chefs, and ATV rentals effortlessly, which made our experience even better. Also, the daily cleaning service was exceptional. The hill up to the house is steep, but the payoff is incredible. We walked it at times, but having ATVs made it both easier and more fun. We would love to come back!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The house is beyond gorgeous and is located a short walk up a hill from town. We had a bit of trouble checking in but the host quickly helped us. We booked a private chef and massage services to come to the house, and the host helped us coordinate activities like surfing and horseback riding. The daily housekeeping was great as well. We will miss watching the sunsets from the pool! Thanks for an unforgettable week.

What a wonderful home Villa Mango is! The modern design and the location were great. We enjoyed the terrace, the swimming pool, and of course the beautiful surroundings and nature. Daily housekeeping and a security guard for the night; a real treat. We will definitely come back!
