Casa Puesta del Sol
Enchanting views, exciting activities and five-star accommodations await at Casa Puesta del Sol. With a name that means ‘sunset’ in Spanish, the luxury villa delivers with panoramas of three different bays and the Costa Rican rainforest. A location within the exclusive Los Suenos resort gives guests access to shared amenities like a marina and beach club, while five bedrooms can host the whole family or a group of friends. During your stay, be sure to explore the resort’s beach club, marina, restaurants and bars; you can also play a round on the golf course at extra cost. There are also rewards to staying ‘home’ at the private villa; the house opens to a covered loggia with a dining area from which you can step directly into the infinity pool and hot tub, or cross to a sunny terrace with its own lounge area. (There’s even a shallow section of the pool where you can park a lounge chair.) Flip on the villa’s sound system to set the mood, or share vacation photos with friends back at home via Wi-Fi. Incredible views pair with elegant furnishings to create an unforgettable ambience in this hillside Costa Rica rental home. The center of the house is a two-story atrium with a sweeping staircase, wrought-iron railings and a classic black and white tile floor. The space opens to generous rooms with large windows, from the comfortable living room to a formal dining room with a painted ceiling motif and European-style built-in china cabinet. The fully equipped kitchen features a breakfast bar set on an angle, so cooks working at the island have a view of the water. Each of the five bedrooms at Casa Puesta del Sol has an en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. There are two bedrooms with king beds (one of which opens to a balcony so you can take full advantage of the warm weather), two bedrooms with two double beds each, and one bedroom with a queen bed. With dark wood furnishings, woven screens, colorful bedding and large windows, the bedroom suites have inviting tropical style. The location of this luxury home in Los Suenos puts you within minutes of several things to do, from golf (a 3-minute drive away) to the beach, Playa Herradura (a 4-minute drive away). If you’d like to see more of the area, spend an afternoon at nearby Playa Jaco or Playa Blanco, or book a fishing expedition—the waters just off the resort are famous for it. You can also take a day trip to the city of San Jose, about 60 miles away. You’ll want to book your flights into Juan Santamaria International Airport, a 60-minute drive from Casa Puesta del Sol.

Casa Alang Alang
Built with materials from Indonesia and boasting views of the ocean in two directions, Casa Alang Alang is the perfect marriage of relaxed Balinese style and unforgettable Costa Rican scenery. Built atop a hill near the Tamarindo estuary, the property has views along Playa Grande—including vistas of the sunset over the Pacific—and a location a short walk from the beach and town. Seven suite-style bedrooms, including one in a guest house, make the expansive villa feel like your own private beach resort. At Casa Alang Alang, wake up each day and enjoy a breakfast that’s already been prepared before stepping outside and deciding which of the two pools will be your first swim of the day. Sunbathe in the lounge chairs on the deck, nap in the hammock, exercise in the fitness room or book a treatment on the massage table. Rinse off in the outdoor shower before preparing dinner on the barbecue and sitting down to eat at the al-fresco dining area. Though it feels secluded, the villa is fully connected with Apple TV and Wi-Fi. The villa was designed by California architect Steve Adams to take advantage of the gorgeous views, with living spaces that can be completely opened to the outdoors. In the great room, a vaulted ceiling adds to the breezy feeling, as do woven sofas and chairs with sophisticated charcoal cushions. Just next to the sitting area, the generous ironwood dining table seats everyone in wicker chairs. The fully equipped kitchen is open to the rest of the space, but a separate walk-in pantry allows for storage and prep work. If the beach views aren’t enough and you need to put your toes in the sand, it’s a 5-minute walk from the villa to Pangas Beach Club and the town center. The airports closest to Casa Alang Alang are Daniel Oduber International, 43.5 miles away, and Juan Santamaria International, 153 miles away. Copyright © 2015 Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.

All about Central America
Planning a vacation in Central America? We’re here to help!
A delicate chain linking the US and Mexico to the north with South America to the south, Central America is roughly the size of Texas, but it packs a whole lot into a relatively small space. Sitting not far from the equator, it’s got a definite tropical paradise vibe, with sparkling turquoise ocean (laidback Caribbean on one side, pounding Pacific on the other) along its lengthy coastline and lush green rainforest cloaking its interior, punctuated by the giant peaks of more than 300 volcanoes. There’s supreme surfing and sublime scuba diving in all that briny blue, while on land you can explore national forests packed with chattering, squeaking, squawking wildlife or travel 4,00 years back in time at some of the most magnificent Mayan ruins you’ve ever seen.
Costa Rican riches
Costa Rica, the “rich coast” can be found at the southern end of the Central American chain, and its people have made laidback living their specialty. Costa Ricans, known as Ticos, have a favorite phrase, Pura Vida, which translates as “pure life”, but which is basically about being relaxed, carefree and living life to the fullest. Adopt it as your vacation greeting, add in a sprinkling of Spanish phrases and you’re all set for a warm welcome from the easy-going locals.
Make the most of that gilded coastline, lounging on golden beaches, surfing up a storm in Pacific swells or nursing a rum punch on Caribbean sands. Trek through the jungle spotting jaguars and toucans, hike to a volcanic rim or zipline above a misty cloud forest – it’s hard to be bored in this small but mighty vacation gem.
So when’s the best time to hit Costa Rica? Well, really the question is when is the best time for you because it depends which treasures you’re hoping to find. Broadly speaking, there are two seasons: dry (roughly mid-November to April) and wet (roughly May to mid-Nov). In the peak, dry season things can get pretty busy, with all those North American and European vacationers flying south for the winter, but most would agree that the beaches bathed in sunshine from dawn till dusk are worth sharing.
Beaches in the popular Guanacaste region can see the mercury hit 90, so make sure to pack plenty of sunscreen and a big old floppy hat. In the wet season, you’ll have afternoon rains and sunny mornings, with the heaviest downpours in September and October. It’s often referred to as the “green season” because of all that jungly glory, but keep in mind, unpaved roads can become impassable in more remote areas when it rains. In June and July, there’s a respite from the rain, and it’s a good time to explore the animal kingdom of the rainforests, while August sees peak turtle nesting season in Tortuguero and swells starting to form, making the Pacific coast a surfer’s paradise through to the end of October.
It takes between 3 and 7 hours to fly to Costa Rica from most US cities, and most international flights land in either Juan Santamaría International Airport in the country’s capital, San José, or Liberia's Daniel Oduber International Airport in the northwest of the country, near the beaches of Guanacaste.
Beautiful Belize
Belize is another small but perfectly formed treat. It’s known for being an outstanding diving destination, with a barrier reef that’s the second largest in the world – not bad for a country roughly the same size as Massachusetts. Rainforest rambles will uncover big cats, a rainbow of feathered friends and Mayan monoliths telling stories of a great ancient civilization.
If it’s a hammock and a swaying palm that call your name, then head to the hundreds of tiny islands dotted along the Caribbean coast. The largest of these is Ambergris Caye, and it’s a deservedly popular destination where you can sit back and soak up some rays by day, and party in the warm tropical nights.
Belize’s subtropical climate sees a high season from late November to mid-April, when rain is scarce and the average daytime temperature on the coast and cayes is around 80 degrees. But watch out from December through February, when sporadic gusts of wind blowing from the north, known as "northers" can hit the coast and islands hard and hang around for a few days at a time. The rainy season runs from June to mid-November, and the hurricane season overlaps it from July to October, with the most active months being August, September, and October. Perhaps the best time to visit is between January and early April when it’s not quite as hot or humid, and the sea is clear, calm and perfect for strapping on that snorkel mask.
It takes around two hours to fly to Belize from four major cities in the US: Miami, New Orleans, Houston or North Carolina, while flights out of Los Angeles connect through Guatemala and El Salvador. From the main points of entry, the Philip Goldson International Airport and the Belize City Municipal Airstrip, you can catch a local flight to Ambergris Caye – around 15 minutes by air from mainland Belize – or you can take a speedboat water taxi from downtown Belize City.
