Casa Chameleon at Las Catalinas Highlights
Private Plunge Pools with Sunset Rituals
Each villa serves as your personal sanctuary with a saltwater plunge pool positioned for optimal Pacific views, where fire literally shoots from the main infinity pool's edge at sunset—a nightly ritual that transforms cocktail hour into performance art. The minimalist design means nothing distracts from the view, while handcrafted details from Morocco to Indonesia remind you this isn't just another beach resort.
Car-Free Village Below, Boundless Adventure Beyond
Step down from your clifftop perch into Las Catalinas, where cobblestone streets lead to beachfront cafés, art galleries, and two pristine beaches perfect for paddleboarding. With over 40 kilometers of mountain biking trails carved through tropical dry forest and world-class diving at the Catalina Islands visible from your villa, adventure begins at your doorstep—no car keys required.
Relais & Châteaux Dining Above the Pacific
As Costa Rica's newest Relais & Châteaux member, Casa Chameleon elevates farm-to-table dining across four restaurants, with Sentido Norte's open-air pavilion offering front-row sunset seats. From private grotto dinners to rooftop mixology sessions, every meal celebrates local ingredients with international flair, while your villa's mini-bar thoughtfully stocks aloe vera alongside the champagne.
