BEACHFRONT VILLA - FORMER BACARDI FAMILY COMPOUND! Lg FAMILY/WEDDING/EVENT VENUE

Villa Daiquiri, once the “hide-away” residence of the Bacardi family, is now a beautifully renovated Costa Rican vacation compound ready for your visit. With modern amenities and a stunning beachfront location, the villa is perfect for large families, groups, or destination weddings. Villa Daiquiri features a fully equipped kitchen, including a commercial gas oven/range with 2 stoves and flat top grill, a 100lb ice maker and two full size refrigerators. Optional tents and full event amenities to accommodate ceremonies, meetings, or receptions for up to 150 people are available, plus parking for 50+ vehicles located adjacent to the property.

The property is secured by 9ft walls and on site caretaker. The property is with unique features and lush landscaping, including monkey bridges for local howler monkeys who often visit for the large mango and avocado trees. Original details like hand-painted tiles placed around the property and gold-plated fixtures throughout the rooms add to its charm.

Villa Daiquiri not only provides an idyllic setting but also a range of exclusive house services. Our dedicated team offers grocery shopping, bar stocking, the option of a personal bartender or chef. Please inquire with management as we provide multiple bar options as well as breakfast, lunch, and dinner options customized to your group’s preferences.

Transportation services and private recommended tours are available, allowing you to explore the beauty of Costa Rica with ease. If interested, please inquire with management as soon as booking is accepted for best scheduling options.

One of the unique highlights of Villa Daiquiri is the presence of two peacocks, Añeja and Havana. These majestic birds are available for a visit anytime throughout the day, we ask guests to accompany a property staff member when entering their area.

Family Trip
We had a great stay at Villa Dacquiri. Location is perfect - right on the beach and a lot of restaurants nearby. Close to other activities as well. Bret was very helpful arranging tours for us and we enjoyed all of them. Highly recommend the taco night they prepared at the Villa for us.

The perfect family getaway!
We took 13 family members, ages 1 to 75 and it was a perfect fit for us all! The rooms were spacious and we had enough privacy inside. The setting was steps from the ocean and when we tired of that we played in the large pool. With any communication needs, Brett was responsive immediately and always so friendly. It is the top 10 for us!!

Great stay
We had 4 couples stay here. Great location and best pool . We brought our own floatys. At first we were told no maid and then we said what the reviews read and We did get a maid. It wasn't clear on who was all living on the property. It was Andre and his family's as well as another gentleman that we were not aware of so some missunderstanding took place. But we did get that all cleared up.Great restaurant's in walking distance . And management did respond quickly if you had questions.Over all it was great place to stay. We would go back.

Paradise on the Beach
I would recommend for a large family gathering. Plenty of room, nice furnishings, small cove maybe a mile wide, sandy bottom. I would think a house of this size would have a maid. We had zero maid service. Not a complaint, but be advised. Communication from the host was a bit sketchy. I thought we would be greeted by someone who spoke English to introduce us to the house. We were met be Andre, the grounds keeper. Finally met the manager when he popped in one day. Maria is the way to go for home cooked meals! We hired her for 4 different nights. Every dish was wonderful. Plenty of leftovers for the next day. The restaurant next door is fabulous as is the one 2 doors down from there. All in all, a very nice trip.

Fabulous location
We went the week before Christmas. The house easily accommodates a large group. Plenty of space for everyone. The bedrooms are a large and very nice( The mattresses are very, very firm). The kitchen has all you need to cook and we enjoyed the large dining table so we could have our meals together. The beach is stunning and there are several amazing restaurants close by. There is a high rise hotel right next to the house, that you see and they can see you if you are in the pool. However we had no issues with anyone.( just a note if you have privacy concerns) The hotel next door has a restaurant and had live music a few nights that that we enjoyed. The host was very helpful and arranged a fabulous day trip and well as transfer to and from the airport.

Best trip amazing staff
This trip was more than a year in preparation. Our family dream trip. Peter the owner was so attentive and got us in touch with all the right people for arrival and experiences. So responsive and kind. Arrival was stream line and quick 30 min trip to arrival at the beautiful home. So much space for us all. 7 adults and 4 teens lots of space for all never felt crowded or on top of each other. Pool clean and perfect temp! Beach right out front could hear waves as we slept every night and enjoyed boogie boarding during the day. Amazing sun sent and often had whole beach to ourselves. The morning and morning walks/ runs in beach out of sight. Great restaurants walking distance and really terrific local watering joint across road with some great food and very best mojitos. Great small supermarket walking distance down road and cheap cab ride to larger about 20 min drive everything you would Need and want. The cleaning staff were amazing and barely knew they were there were had an incredible catering by Maria her food was out of this world highly recommend and few times through the stay very reasonable and delicious. Brett the coordinator was absolutely amazing great insight into Costa Rica and local resources and attractions. He really took such great care of little details and ensured our stay was amazing and taken care of start to finish. We will definitely be back soon and recommend this home to any family group looking to enjoy Costa Rica in comfort and authenticity.

Perfect Vacation Setting
As described. Beautiful location, close by restaurants and local bars. It was refreshing that there were absolutely no chain stores or restaurants nearby. Macho, Marie, and Andre were great if any thing occurred which needed attention. Seeing the family of Howler Monkeys was exciting. I highly recommend visiting Playa Coco. Sibu Tours was spectacular. Highly recommended. Roberto’s next door had great food. Thank you for a spectacular week.

Beautiful and Well-Managed Property
We had a relaxing and wonderful stay at Villa Daiquiri. The house is beautiful, and the location is perfect. The house manager Macho helped us arrange local tours, and we took the owners recommendations for fishing and diving, which was fantastic. Diego with Sibu Tours was entertaining and informative, and everyone we interacted with was kind and helpful. The house itself has so much charm, and we enjoyed watching the sunsets from the balcony, playing on the beach which is just steps from the back door, and relaxing at the pool. Maria made us dinner our first night, which was delicious. You cannot go wrong staying at Villa Daiquiri, and we hope we are fortunate enough to visit again.
