For larger groups additional lodging can be arranged on the same Private Ranch property at our Neigboring Villas and Condos.

This venue is on the coast, only 5 minutes from the beach but located on a beautiful hilltop for refreshing breezes and spectacular Ocean and Jungle views!


Facilities and Capacity
This estate welcomes up to 70 guests to a couples’ wedding in paradise. The Del Pacifico Estate - Pura Vida Casas is an ocean-view ranch on a hilltop with 360-degree views. The estate is composed of three villas with a combined total of 12 bedrooms sleeping up to 30 guests onsite. There are six large event spaces in this jungle haven, two of which provide shelter from the refreshing tropical rains. NEW 2020 is the "Jungle Event Deck" where couples can enjoy a beautiful reception dinner with ocean views under the beauty of the large tropical trees. Couples won’t need to rent doves for their ceremony as the venue sits in the jungle, surrounded by parrots, macaws, toucans, and other colorful avian visitors. This spacious property allows couples to marry on a sandy beach or say their “I dos” overlooking the water, on the rooftop terrace, garden side, or the new Jungle deck. There are plenty of open areas and cabana-like spaces among the three villas. Couples will find industrial touches, like concrete walls, mixed with bright colors, and lush natural beauty.

Services Offered
Couples will find all-inclusive packages for their event, whether it’s a ceremony and reception, an elopement, or another wedding-related event like a bridal shower, engagement party, or rehearsal dinner. Staff at the villa can provide bar and catering services, wedding cake, lighting and sound services, and event planning assistance. Couples will additionally find the time and aid needed to set up and clean up their wedding. All the while, they can relax and prepare in getting ready rooms on the property. A professional photographer works onsite at this venue to be ready at a moment’s notice. There is also onsite parking, shuttle service, and wifi for the couple guests and outside vendors. Couples will find event rentals and event items for their wedding day such as:

  • Aisle markers and runners
  • Altar/arches
  • Audio equipment
  • Centerpieces
  • Chairs with chair covers
  • Dance floor
  • Decor
  • Drapery
  • Furniture

They can choose from serving options on their wedding day such as buffet, cocktail reception, dessert, family style, hors d’oeuvres, outside cake, plated, servers, and stations. Bartenders serve a cash or open bar on the wedding night. They fill glasses for a champagne toast to the newlyweds, and they pour a selection of drinks for guests. Couples can bring outside alcohol, while the Del Pacifico Estate - Pura Vida Casas can provide premium liquor, signature drinks, specialty beer, and specialty wine.

Accommodation
This large estate comprises three separate villas for couples to live and sleep in. With 12 bedrooms sleeping up to 30 guests, couples will find plenty of space for themselves, family members, friends, the wedding party, or any extra lucky guests. The estate also has overflow lodging at the neighboring villas and the condos located on the same private property allowing larger groups the convenience to have all their guests be in the same area. This extra lodging can be arranged for your guests by the Estate concierge. Couples can rent the villas for their wedding and be guaranteed the only party at the estate during the length of their stay. In addition to the many bedrooms, these villas also offer three private pools, four full kitchens, and five event spaces.

Pura Vida Casas was everything!

Chloe at Pura Vida Casas made my destination dream wedding come true! From start to finish of working with her, it was so easy and fun along the way. We had 22 people stay between the 3 houses which were comfortable and so fun for during the wedding to allow everyone to go put on sweatsuits / pajamas to dance and party the night away.

Choose Pura Vida Casas for your wedding!

There is not a better place for you to choose for your wedding. My family and I stayed for five plus days and it could not have been better. As it is still during the time of COVID and some of my family members are uneasy about travel it was a little rocky getting everyone there but Chloe and Pura Vida Casas made everyone a believer in travel and Costa Rica. The houses are beautiful, the privacy and seclusion you will feel with your group go unmatched by five star hotels. The food was amazing throughout the vacation and for the wedding. Let’s be honest most weddings the food is bad, yet here everyone loved the food! Chloe will go above and beyond to take care of you, we got stranded at the airport, she got us a taxi in ten minutes. Every activity we wanted, she made happen. We had a nurse come to our house to give us COVID tests, she was super nice and efficient. The wedding was more than I could have dreamed in how it looked, the music, how it flowed, everything. I was an hour late to my own wedding, no problems everyone made me feel like a star. Last minute we realized we needed surf boards, Chloe got them for us. Seriously, you cannot do better than this location, you cannot do better than Chloe.

Great service & attention

Our stay at Pura Vida Casas was amazing. Chloe, the property & wedding coordinator, provided us with all the information we needed to have our wedding in Costa Rica. She was responsive and organized. When minor issues arose, Chloe was more than willing to work with us and problem solve. She perfectly captured our vision for our big day! We are so happy and grateful that we had the opportunity to have our wedding in the Pura Vida Villas in Costa Rica.
