LAS BRISAS RESORT & VILLAS | PLAYA HERMOSA, JACÓ, COSTA RICA

Own your own tropical villa minutes from one of Costa Rica’s most famous surf beaches—while enjoying the amenities and services of an established boutique resort.

Casa Macaw is a fully furnished 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom villa located within Las Brisas Resort & Villas, also known as Amanti Resort, in Playa Hermosa, just south of Jacó on Costa Rica’s Central Pacific Coast.

Priced at just $200,000 USD, this approximately 1,300-square-foot freehold villa offers an unusually accessible opportunity to own a substantial three-bedroom property in one of Costa Rica’s best-known surf destinations.

Best of all, Casa Macaw’s owner receives full access to the resort amenities, combining the privacy and independence of owning your own villa with many of the benefits normally associated with staying at a full-service resort.

THE VILLA

Built in approximately 2011, Casa Macaw is designed for easy tropical living.

The villa features three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, providing plenty of room for an owner, family, visiting friends or vacation guests.

The main living area includes a comfortable living room and full kitchen, making the property suitable for everything from short surf trips to extended stays in Costa Rica.

One of the home's standout features is its private rooftop terrace—an additional outdoor living space perfect for morning coffee, sunset drinks, relaxing after a surf session or simply enjoying the tropical surroundings.

Casa Macaw is being offered fully furnished, providing a relatively simple transition for a new owner who wants to begin enjoying the property without having to furnish an entire home from scratch.

RESORT LIVING WITHOUT GIVING UP YOUR OWN HOME

What makes Casa Macaw particularly interesting is its location within Las Brisas Resort & Villas.

Rather than purchasing a stand-alone home and maintaining every amenity yourself, Casa Macaw gives its owner access to the established resort environment and amenities.

Current resort amenities include:

  • Two resort-style swimming pools and whirlpool spa

  • Adults-only pool area

  • Full-service restaurant and bar

  • On-site massage and spa services

  • High-speed resort-wide Wi-Fi

  • Outdoor showers

  • Surfboard and scooter rentals

  • Pool volleyball and pool basketball

  • Garden and outdoor relaxation areas

  • Concierge services

  • Tours and transportation assistance

  • Surf lessons and rentals

  • Access to numerous adventure and nature experiences

The resort also offers convenient access to activities including sport fishing, ATV tours, horseback riding, ziplining, waterfalls, wildlife tours, kayaking, snorkeling and excursions throughout Costa Rica’s Central Pacific region.

SURF PLAYA HERMOSA

For surfers, location is the headline.

Playa Hermosa is one of Costa Rica’s premier surf destinations, known for powerful, consistent Pacific swell and miles of beachbreak.

Instead of planning a surf vacation every time you want to visit Costa Rica, Casa Macaw gives you a home base right in the Playa Hermosa surf zone.

Playa Hermosa Beach is approximately two minutes away and fully walkable, with nearby Jacó approximately seven minutes away.

That puts owners in an excellent position to enjoy the quieter tropical atmosphere of Playa Hermosa while still having quick access to the restaurants, shopping, nightlife and services of Jacó.

THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS

Casa Macaw occupies an interesting niche in the Costa Rican surf-property market.

It isn't simply a hotel room or resort suite.

It is a three-bedroom freehold villa where you can establish your own Costa Rican home base, prepare meals in your own kitchen, entertain friends, relax on your private rooftop terrace and enjoy the privacy of your own residence.

At the same time, you step outside and have access to the amenities and services of an operating tropical resort.

For a surfer, second-home buyer or Costa Rica lifestyle buyer, that's a compelling combination.

INVESTMENT & LIFESTYLE POTENTIAL

With three bedrooms, two bathrooms, approximately 1,300 square feet of living space and a location close to Playa Hermosa, Casa Macaw may also appeal to buyers interested in combining personal use with vacation-rental potential.

Playa Hermosa and nearby Jacó attract surfers, couples, families, adventure travelers and international visitors throughout the year.

The villa's multiple bedrooms, full kitchen, furnished condition, private rooftop terrace and resort setting could make it particularly attractive to groups and families looking for more space than a traditional hotel room.

Rental program is fully managed by resort management for ease of ownership with income.

A PROPERTY ISP KNOWS FIRSTHAND

International Surf Properties has an unusually deep, firsthand connection to Casa Macaw and Las Brisas Resort & Villas. We aren't approaching this property as outside brokers learning about it for the first time—we know the villa, the resort, and its history through our direct involvement in previous transactions.

In 2019, ISP sold Casa Macaw for the Colapinto family (Griffin and Crosby WSL Surfers) to its current owner. Then, in 2021, ISP facilitated the sale of the entire Las Brisas Resort & Villas property.

Those transactions gave ISP firsthand knowledge not only of Casa Macaw itself, but also of the larger resort in which it is located. Our familiarity comes from being directly involved with the property, its ownership history, and the resort as a whole.

That experience is especially valuable for an international buyer. When questions arise about the villa, the resort setting, its history, or what it's actually like to own property in this part of Playa Hermosa, buyers are working with a brokerage that has been involved here for years—not one that simply picked up a new listing.

Now, Casa Macaw has come full circle and is once again being represented by International Surf Properties.

ISP sold Casa Macaw in 2019. ISP sold the entire resort in 2021. We know this property because we've been part of its story.

_________________________________________________________________

Casa Macaw offers something increasingly difficult to find in established Costa Rican surf destinations: a furnished, three-bedroom freehold villa at an approachable price point, close to world-class surf and backed by the amenities of an operating boutique resort.

Surf. Stay. Own.
