This oceanside paradise is more than a home; it is an priceless experience.
Nestled in the tropical rain forest 200 meters from the perennial Top 10 beach of Playa Carrillo, the feel and experience of our Private Villa is unlike any other.
With 24/7 ocean breezes and views this gated home is as comfortable as it is encapsulating, with unmatched ambiance and connection to the ocean and nature around us.
Lifetime memories are available in this truly unique vacation home and working environment.
The space
The ocean-centric, open space focus and comfortable, peaceful design of the home together combine to provide the foundation for among the most enjoyable vacation settings that can be experienced.
The home is uniquely designed to provide ideal gathering and bedroom experiences.
The living, dining, kitchen and breakfast-nook areas are often the center of daily activity. Upon opening the double hand-made wooden doors facing east and the entire wall of full glass doors facing west over the pool and ocean, and you will feel enmeshed in the beautify land feel of the rain forest around us.
The 2 family bedroom living spaces both have full courtyard and ocean views. Each is capable of hosting a family of 4 (8 total), has their own en-suite bathrooms, and generously oversized walk-in closets. The master bedroom is complete with a private balcony overlooking the pool, courtyard and ocean, the first floor suite has walk out access to the pool and courtyard areas.
The pool courtyard is so very unique. Surrounded by rainforest around us and the ocean slightly below, with occasional families of monkeys in the trees adjacent to us, it is especially inviting from sunup to well past sundown, so much so that it would be possible to have the vacation of your dreams without ever leaving the Casa Hakuna Matata private compound.
Add to these the ease of access via a small, quiet street, the excellent restaurant resources of Playa Carrillo, the shopping and additional dining universe of Playa Samara a 10 minute drive away, and the newly constructed private 3rd floor, full ocean view office with 200 MB high speed internet, and Casa Hakuna Matata becomes an unparalleled vacation and/or remote working environment experience.
Peace, privacy, connecting to nature combine, to one's self, or to or with those we love - the opportunities for each of these - and so much more - are available at Casa Hakuna Matata.
Guest access
Casa Hakuna Matata is an easy to access 2 minute drive from Playa Carrillo beach, and less than 10 minutes from Playa Samara. Parking is available in the carport, which guests can access through the entry gage via remote control.

~ The spacious master bedroom suite, located on the 2nd floor, has among the most stunning views you will ever find.

~ The 2nd bedroom, which is located on the 1st floor, has beautiful ocean, private access to the courtyard and pool areas, and includes queen and full (matrimonial) sized beds to comfortably sleep 4 people. It also has its own private bathroom and shower areas, and walk in closet for storage.
~ As the pictures show, the living, dining, kitchen, and breakfast nook areas are fully open to one another, and also to the world around us. Each morning we open the double doors to the porch and sunshine from the east, and the entire wall of double glass doors providing access to the pool and incredible views of the ocean to the west. It is almost impossibly to find words to describe the feeling of the entirety of this indoor and outdoor space, including the sounds of nature around us, and the peace and connectedness we feel within us, with those with us, and with the precious and beautiful world around us.
~ Amazing location, and privacy: Casa Hakuna Matata is the closest home to the ocean at the end of a small private street on a slight bluff above the ocean. Surrounded by the nature of rain forest on 3 sides of the home, you can't see a neighbor from our gated property, nor can anyone else see you, and you have a beautiful yard, courtyard pool area, and gazebo area to call your home during the entirety of your stay.
