Property information

Dreamy Contentment is a quaint beachfront property on the South Pacific Coast in Playa Matapalo. With lush gardens, towering palms and warm seaside breezes...this is a place where you can unplug and decompress. Out Villa and Bungalows have fully stocked kitchens, comfortable Queen beds, imported luxurious sheets and linens, and plenty of hammocks and beach chairs!

Neighbourhood information

Playa Matapalo is a remote and vast beach where the secondary rainforest meets the sea. It is 45km of volcanic silky sand. We have such incredible wildlife with sloths and monkeys, toucans and eagles, iguanas and leaf cutter ants. The ocean is teeming with animals including dolphins and humpback whales and we host Olive Ridley Turtles on Playa Matapalo every season with a hatchery just a quick 3 minute walk down the beach! Looking for adventure? We can arrange horseback riding, surf lessons, yoga on the beach, amazing waterfall tours, fast zip lines, deep sea fishing, sunset cruises, jungle treks and a mangrove kayak ride that is NatGeo worthy! Just let us know what you would like to do!
