Casa Chameleon

Top choice in Península de Nicoya


This glamorous hilltop boutique is an adults-only dream stay, with just 21 posh villas (and private saltwater plunge pools) overlooking some of the country's most jaw-dropping coastline. The opulent grounds are replete with exotic touches by way of Morocco and Indonesia, and the yoga deck, fire-lit infinity pool and Costa Rican restaurant are all fabulous.

If you're gonna splurge on a honeymoon or couples' getaway, you certainly won't be sorry you did it here.
