Welcome to Essence of Dreams, a palatial Costa Rican property overlooking the Pacific coastline.
Up to 18 guests can relax in the spacious suites and gather for memorable celebrations in the exquisite Great Room or around the beautiful outdoor pool.
Essence of Dreams is located 1,200 feet above the incomparable Playa Hermosa. This beach has earned its title 'Hermosa,' meaning 'beautiful.' With fine sands, turquoise waters, and conditions perfect for surfing and swimming, this is a natural paradise.
The spectacular villa has a prime location overlooking this incredible coastline and a 360-degree view that includes volcanoes, rainforests, and mountains. Every natural wonder that sets Costa Rica above most other destinations is spread like a magical carpet around this exceptionally tasteful property.
On the villa's main level, there is a stunning 40-foot salt mineral infinity pool with a swim-up bar. The pool has a 'beach' area with lovely areas for sunbathing and sitting.

There's an outdoor TV and bar for guests who like to keep connected with news or sports without losing out on time in the fresh air.
The villa's Great Room matches its name. This room is both a vaulted and elegant room where guests can gather to enjoy the views of the pool and the ocean beyond. There's an 85' Smart TV, stunning photographic prints, and a huge crystal chandelier, just some refinements that will bring luxury and expected modern amenities to a memorable vacation.
Essence of Dreams has a huge American-style kitchen. Your in-house Chef will cater to all your dining needs, but you are very welcome to get involved if you love learning new cooking techniques.
The lavish dining space at Essence of Dreams can comfortably accommodate 20 guests. It is filled with natural light and has a divine view.

The local ingredients, the unsurpassed Costa Rican coffee, fresh seafood, vegetables, and meat combine to dazzle and tempt. Life at Essence of Dreams has all the qualities of a luxury hotel getaway but with a wonderfully exclusive vibe.
There is a great beverage center in the kitchen stocked daily with water, juices, and soft drinks, ideal for guests to grab a drink throughout the day. Likewise, coffee, tea, or hot chocolate is available all day. If you want a selection of wines, champagne, beers, and cocktails, you can add this request at the pre-booking stage.
As the day draws to a close, the fire urns are lit, casting a magical glow over the infinity pool. Gathering with your loved ones around the pool and listening to the tropical night sounds is a deeply relaxing experience. Bliss!
