 Villa del Oso provides a
total of seven suites, each with private bath (three of which are spa-suites),
that combine with elegant original art-laden living spaces. There are two
structures on the property. The main house is referred to as Villa del
Oso and the two suite bungalow behind the main house is called Casa
Osito.
MAIN HOUSE:
A fitting
marble entry framed by massive hand-forged and formed native ironwork is
graced by niches containing stone statuary of ancient native gods which
provides a splendid transition to a magnificent spiral staircase and a
choice of ocean fronting levels of delightful living and entertaining
spaces.
A marble semi-circle bar separates several cosy conversation areas,
formal dining room, and social gathering and mixing spaces from a fully
equipped gourmet kitchen that is replete with such delights as a
professional pizza oven, and ice cream maker.
THE FIVE BEDROOMS AT THE MAIN HOUSE
Fountain
Garden Bedroom:
A seductively
intimate bedroom featuring a hand-formed illuminated vaulted ceiling,
marble bath and a romantically draped queen-sized bed.
Bi-fold doors open onto a private garden with hand-carved stone fountain
and accents.
Pool Bedroom:
Dramatic illuminated domed ceiling presides over a circular haven of
finely finished marble containing a king-sized
bed that directly opens to the elegant adjacent outdoor living area,
heated infinity pool and ocean-view Jacuzzi.
Oceanside
Suite:
Soaring ceiling heights accented by full windowed floor to eve doors
contain a palatial space for an elegant nightly repose featuring a
canopied king-sized bed resting on finished marble floors stretching
throughout the suite and into the adjacent private bath which is
luxuriously appointed with Jacuzzi, bidet, twin hand-carved marble sinks
and romantic natural lighted shower for two.
Ocean Terrace
Bedroom #1:
French doors
open to the sounds and sights of the ocean for a restful evening
serenade. A queen-sized bed, twin ceiling
fans and spacious setting areas provide a spot for relaxing with a
favourite book or just savouring the outside gardens. A full marble
finished bathroom completes the offering.
Ocean Terrace Bedroom #2:
French doors lead directly
from an adjacent outdoor Palapa dome
covering an intimate dining and conversation area. Ample closet space
and a full marble finish bathroom add to the elegance. Rooftop gardens
surround the spacious marble decks with carefully planned gathering
sites.
THE GUEST
HOUSE-CASA OSITO:
Easily
accessed from the rustic cobblestone street and secure off-street
parking area, Casa Osito is a magnificent
extension of space to the main house or a beautifully efficient
self-contained delight in and of itself. Lush tropical gardens and a
winding drive connect Casa Osito with the
main house complex of Villa del Oso.
THE BEDROOMS AT THE CASITA
 The
"Garden Bedroom":
A full frontal terrace
breezes past the rare, beautiful plantings at the end of the Grand Hall
and tags along the full patio width of the "French Connection", an
overlook patio terrace which connects the entertaining and dining space
of Casa Osito with the secluded paths that
wind through lush multi-levels of exotic tropical plantings and swaying
palms of the nearby gardens. Like the 2nd floor "Tree House Spa Suite",
your very own private Jacuzzi and romantic super-size outdoor shower are
only steps away. A private gate connects you to the exotic ground level
gardens and beach access.
The "Tree House Suite":
Lurking directly
outside the patio leading from your private Jacuzzi and super-size
outdoor shower is one of nature's symbiotic wonders known as a
"Strangler Tree." However fearsome the name sounds, you shouldn't be
afraid. It is merely a beautiful method of coexistence between a host
palm tree at the core and an outer sheath of a member of the fig tree
family. It got its start several decades ago when a bird transported an
infant seed and deposited it in the vortex of the palm. Time, sunshine
and abundant rainfall took care of the rest. Today both verdant forms of
the palm fond and clusters of the fig leaf add shade and a bit of
mystery to your perch above paradise.
