Located 400 metres from Carmen Beach and 2.1 km from Mar Azul, D'Palm Villas features free WiFi and units equipped with a kitchen, patio and seating area. This villa provides free private parking and full-day security. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a year-round outdoor pool.

I'm not one to often leave reviews, but I feel compelled to make an exception for D'Palm Villas. My stay there was exceptional, and the experience was beyond what I expected. Mike, the manager, consistently goes above and beyond to ensure guests are delighted. His genuine care shines through, aiming to guarantee everyone has a fantastic time in Mal Pais. The villas are stunning. They're newly constructed, thoughtfully designed, snug, modern, well-equipped, and beautifully decorated. It's a fusion of contemporary tropical vibes and a beach cottage nestled in the jungle. The location is unbeatable: nestled in the serene, verdant jungle of Mal Pais, yet just a stone's throw from the vibrant restaurants and stores of Santa Teresa. Plus, it's a mere 5-minute walk to the beach. If you're planning a trip to the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula, I wholeheartedly recommend D'Palms villas. I, for one, will surely return.

Looking for a holiday home?

Great for families or large parties, holiday homes are privately owned accommodation, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities for self-catering, although breakfast may be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different to apartments.

    This was a transit place for us as we wanted to stop for the night before moving on to Quepos. Orlando, the owner, is a VERY nice man. He was waiting for us when we got off the fairy. This facility is literally 2 minutes from the ferry terminal, so the location is great if you are in transit (absolutely not for a long stay). This place is very small, but it was very clean and offered a great shower, and a confortable bed. It also provides air conditioning which is a must, and a small fridge.

    The staff was so lovely and helpful. Small 10 room family run hotel. Very, very clean and basic. We felt at home and safe. The beach is beautiful for walking, and swimming on low tide when surf is lower. The family clean this portion of the beach. The restaurant serves delicious food. All the staff and family made our stay memorable. Especially the owner who helped us arrange a trip to Tortuga Island. Thank you. And David, who helped with translations.
