Welcome to Villa Zest
Completed in mid 2023, sporting 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, Villa Zest brings upscale Scandi-style luxury to the home with its tasteful use of wood (for the custom furniture and stair details), glass (for invisible railings), beige stone Travertine floors and counters, and light woven soft furnishings all balancing the gorgeous cement finish. Its precise, clean lines and natural tones are complimented by the sparkling blues and greens of the ocean views, the décor is minimalist and elegant.
With a total of 5489 sq. feet of indoor living space and another 3153 feet of under roof open air living space, Villa Zest’s elevation offers uninterrupted views on all levels of the Pacific Ocean, its coastline and Punta Cátedral of Manuel Antonio National Park. This villa is on Pacific Canyon Drive, walking distance best restaurants, cafes, and amenities.
You enter the home from the elevated parking area via a formal antechamber leading to the first two bedrooms plus full laundry room, a large balcony, and a shared bathroom. One bedroom has two, built-in bunk beds for the kids. On the second floor you’ll find four other bedrooms, each with ensuite baths featuring white, handmade Spanish tiles creating a sophisticated texture repeated throughout with woven leather headboards, and wide weave linen pillows and bedspreads. Every room has a large closet with floor-to-ceiling custom-made wood doors, and an individual balcony with a pristine ocean view.
While the bedrooms offer complete privacy, the main attraction is the third floor where life happens in the enormous open living / dining / kitchen area with floor-to-ceiling windows opening out to an end-to-end balcony and its 180-degree view. Lounge areas are comfortably arranged inside and out. Dining for a total of 24 is possible with a gorgeous custom-built dining table seating 14 inside, another table for 6 outside plus 4 at the kitchen island. A chef caliber kitchen with its 6-burner gas stove, dishwasher, bar-style icemaker, and a full pantry with plenty of storage offers guests the opportunity to entertain in style.
Walk out past a garden and ascend stairs up to the roof terrace to finish up the experience with another lounge zone under the stars, an infinity pool, a full outdoor kitchen/bbq area and half bath.
This is a turn-key ready opportunity complete with custom-made furniture and design elements all impeccably integrated throughout to create a harmonious feeling. Exquisitely beautiful, Villa Zest is positioned to be one of the area’s strongest vacation rental properties or as an exceptional personal estate. With parking for 2 cars on the elevated ground level, solar panels on the roof terrace roof to help heat the pool, and jungle greenery at the back of the home, this is a legacy and investment property someone will be proud to own. #ref:20496N
