The space
In the secluded and stunning corner of Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula, where verdant hills meet pristine shores, lies a beachfront sanctuary unlike any other.
The March House, famously known as THE iconic Mal Pais beachfront estate, is nestled in the idyllic El Muey Bay, and is the epitome of tropical luxury, offering an unmatched blend of tranquility, privacy, and understated elegance.
The March House is more than just a residence; it’s an experience.
Spread across nearly a hectare of lush, meticulously landscaped grounds, this estate embodies the spirit of Mal Pais.
The villa’s warm contemporary design flows effortlessly into its surroundings, creating a seamless blend between the natural world and modern comfort.
Here, you’re far from the crowds of Santa Teresa, yet conveniently close enough to enjoy its vibrant culture and amenities—just a quick five-minute drive away.
What truly sets the March House apart is its open-air concept.
Picture this: gentle ocean breezes wafting through the villa as the sounds of tropical wildlife create a peaceful soundtrack to your day.
Hand-carved, louvered doors swing open to reveal views of lush gardens and the mesmerizing Pacific horizon. The design allows you to feel as though you’re living both inside and outside simultaneously, bringing you closer to nature with every breath.
The architectural inspiration behind the villa comes from the legendary Mexican architect Luis Ramiro Barragán, celebrated for his ability to create spaces that are both simple and sublime.
In the March House, this philosophy is brought to life with expansive, light-filled rooms, high ceilings, and cool stucco concrete floors that invite the ocean breezes to flow freely. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas are designed to blur the lines between indoor and outdoor living, making the landscape an integral part of your daily experience.
For those who seek the best views in the house, the master bedroom on the second floor offers a breathtaking panorama of the estate.
From this vantage point, you can take in the entire property, from the serene pool and manicured lawn to the sandy beach that lies just beyond.
Every room in the villa opens up to the gardens and leads to the pool area, ensuring that no matter where you are, you’re always connected to the natural beauty that surrounds you.
Mal Pais holds a special place in Costa Rica’s history, known as the birthplace of the Santa Teresa adventure in the 1990s. Despite its growing popularity, Mal Pais has retained its authentic charm.
Local fishermen still bring in their daily catch, and the nearby village supermarket, Super Chico, is the go-to spot for fresh produce, liquor and wines.
The nearby Cabo Blanco National Reserve, Costa Rica’s first national park, adds a touch of wild beauty to this already enchanting location.
The March House is a sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation. With six spacious bedrooms and five and a half elegant bathrooms, the estate is perfect for hosting family and friends. The sprawling green lawn and sundeck are ideal for sunbathing or yoga, with comfy hammocks swaying gently beneath the palm trees.
The chef’s kitchen and large dining area make entertaining a breeze, while the comfortable living spaces invite you to unwind in style, whether indoors or outdoors.
Whether you’re looking for a luxurious retreat or a base for exploring Costa Rica’s stunning Pacific coast, The March House is the perfect choice. Book your stay today and experience the unparalleled beauty and serenity of Mal Pais.
