Located in Playa Ocotal, a secluded small beach destination, Casa Malalo is a private residence surrounded by nature and an atmosphere of serenity that makes it a unique retreat home.

In Playa Ocotal, discover a beautiful setting of black volcanic sands and clear waters, all surrounded by lush nature. Many visitors come to Ocotal simply to relax or enjoy water activities such as snorkeling and diving in its calm waters. The property is located just a 7-minute drive from downtown Playas del Coco, a vibrant beach community with restaurants, shops, services, and everyday conveniences, and 45 minutes from Guanacaste International Airport.

Casa Malalo sits on a 3,522 m² (0.87-acre) land plot where a personal project began many years ago: creating a garden filled with local species and fruit trees, turning everyday living into a close-to-nature experience. The house features 4 bedrooms and 4 en-suite bathrooms, with ample indoor and outdoor living areas across 3,229 sq. ft. of total construction distributed over two floors.

As you enter the house on the upper level, a modern kitchen welcomes you. Quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and off-white cabinetry combined with wood finishes create a warm and inviting atmosphere. A powder room is conveniently located next to the main entrance, followed by the indoor living and dining areas. The house then opens onto a large covered terrace, beautifully decorated with plants where you can get a sneak-peek water view. This area features an eight-seater dining table, lounge chairs, and multiple ceiling fans for a more comfortable outdoor experience.

Also on the upper level, positioned on opposite sides of the living area, you will find two primary bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. Along with air conditioning throughout the house, the upper level features vaulted hardwood ceilings that add a sense of spaciousness and help keep the interior cooler during the daytime.

The lower level, accessible through an outdoor walkway, features 2 bedrooms, each with a full bathroom. Each bedroom can be set up in a small hotel-room style with a private kitchenette, offering the opportunity to host family or friends in a more private setting or to rent the rooms independently. The lower level also features a covered front terrace, the laundry area, and a storage room.

Just steps from the house, you will find the pool and lounging area, nicely finished and surrounded by the garden.

Casa Malalo offers a unique lifestyle—a home where you can experience the serenity of nature with the sound of the ocean, birds, and howler monkeys, while being just a 7-minute walk from the water.
