Stealing Time sits quietly above the beach in Esterillos Oeste, surrounded by tropical greenery, ocean breezes, and the slower rhythm that defines this part of Costa Rica.
Designed as a private resort reserved entirely for one group at a time, the property brings together three beautifully independent suites, wellness-focused spaces, and the kind of atmosphere that encourages guests to naturally settle into the pace of the coast.
Hidden within lush tropical greenery and elevated above the Pacific coastline, this four-bedroom ocean-view retreat was thoughtfully designed to feel immersive, calming, and deeply connected to its surroundings. Waterfalls, jungle pathways, open-air wellness spaces, ocean breezes, and warm natural materials create an atmosphere that feels both luxurious and grounding at the same time.
The property offers exclusive access to three beautifully designed self-contained suites, a saltwater infinity pool with waterfall, elevated yoga shala, air-conditioned fitness studio, cold plunge hut, wellness treatment room, and attentive on-site concierge service. Unlike a traditional resort, there are no shared facilities and no other guests. The entire experience is reserved exclusively for your group.

A short five-minute walk downhill leads to one of Costa Rica’s most peaceful and underrated stretches of coastline. Esterillos Oeste remains refreshingly authentic, with beachside sodas, warm local culture, surf, wildlife, sea turtle conservation efforts, and miles of uncrowded shoreline rarely found in more developed destinations.
Stealing Time was intentionally created differently. Not as a loud all-inclusive resort disconnected from its surroundings, but as a private luxury retreat that still feels deeply connected to Costa Rica’s nature, rhythm, and sense of place.
Mornings begin with monkeys moving through the trees and sunlight filtering across the jungle canopy. Afternoons drift between beach walks, yoga sessions, cold plunges, poolside lounging, and long unhurried meals. Evenings settle quietly beneath tropical skies as the Pacific shimmers in the distance.
Part of the Pura Villas Luxury Collection, Stealing Time is among a handpicked selection of exceptional homes and private estates chosen for their setting, character, experience, and atmosphere rather than volume alone.
We truly believe places like this are becoming increasingly rare. Private enough to disconnect, thoughtful enough to slow down, and authentic enough to genuinely feel Costa Rica. We look forward to welcoming guests who appreciate that balance as much as we do.
