A palace of pure bliss perched high in the Costa Rica skyline.

We could dust off the old thesaurus and produce dozens of fancy adjectives to describe Villa Aura. In laying out the unmatched beauty of this special place, we could utilize words with many syllables that originated centuries ago.

Instead of trying to impress with Shakespearean language, however, we’re going to cut right to the chase and save you some time and energy.

Simply put, Villa Aura is one of the finest luxury vacation villas in Costa Rica. Not just in the southern Pacific zone, mind you, but the entire country. In fact, you could spend hours online searching the globe for a dream vacation home and you won’t find many places better than this.

That’s because this property has absolutely everything a visiting crew could ask for.

Located just minutes from the warm, soothing sand of Dominical beach, Villa Aura features 9 bedrooms with 9 en-suite bathrooms. Every bedroom on the property has a king-size bed and air conditioning (one bedroom, referred to as The Loft, features an additional full bed). That means no sharing restrooms with others or squeezing into uncomfortable sleeping situations, a luxury vacation built the way it should be.

The primary bedroom is a masterpiece of design where guests can see the infinity swimming pool and Pacific Ocean without lifting the bedsheets off their torsos. Or, even better, slip into the primary’s en-suite bath-tub and take in the jungle view while submerged in soapy bubbles.

We mentioned The Loft. That’s another bedroom, located slightly off to the side of the main area, with a unique design. With both king and queen beds, The Loft can host four guests. For the remaining bedrooms, a single guest or couple works best.

Villa Aura has capacity for 20 guests total, making it one of the largest vacation villas in the region and an ideal landing spot for grandiose groups of family and friends. Parking-wise, there’s space for up to eight 4-wheel-drive vehicles on the grounds.

From the immaculate infinity swimming pool, guests can look directly down on the south end of Dominical beach, checking the surfing conditions, wind and weather patterns as the lively Costa Rica climate does its dance each day. Here, the sunsets are spectacular, a mix of orange, red, yellow and blue hues that melt minds and send social media followers into a frenzy.

This luxury villa is totally set up for a fun time, too. There’s a billiards table, shuffle board, foosball table and several jumbo-size family games available. Upon check-in, guests will arrive to a lovely, Costa Rica-themed gift basket. You’ll also find robes in each bedroom, a classy touch of comfort as everyone gets settled into paradise.

Other top amenities at the property include high-speed wireless internet; a pair of washer and dryers; three refrigerators; an expansive outdoor dining area with BBQ; an outdoor shower, and air conditioning in the living area and kitchen.

With a large-scale refurbishment project having wrapped up in late 2026, Villa Aura is in pristine shape. From the beds to the appliances, everything is sparkling. It’s clean, comfortable and as cool as a cucumber. And with the YouGetHere Vacation Rental team keeping an eye on things, this villa is going to stay that way for a very long time.

Nestled inside Ayacucho, a secure gated community, Villa Aura also offers unparalleled privacy. There are no unexpected visitors on the grounds, so long as you don’t count the troops of white-face and howler monkeys that swing through the jungle canopy. There are also sloths, toucans, macaws, parrots, frogs, butterflies, coatis and a host of other animals that visit around the area, but they all get a free pass since they aren’t humans.

As mentioned, Dominical beach is a 3-minute drive away. There are bars, restaurants, souvenir shops, a pharmacy and a large grocery store in town. Dominical is one of Costa Rica’s premier surfing beaches, with powerful waves and plenty of surf schools on offer. If smaller, mellow waves are what you fancy, head south a few minutes to Dominicalito beach, a stunning cove with gentle peelers rolling through. Both beaches are great for in-shore fishing as well. Locals can often be found casting lines at the Dominical rivermouth or under the Baru Bridge, where catching snook is a right of passage.

Furthermore, there are a pair of epic waterfalls nearby (Nauyaca and Chontales), as well as a slew of thrilling outdoor activities including river rafting, ziplining, snorkeling, kayaking, boat and catamaran tours, waterfall rappelling and parasailing. Hiking in the area is epic as well.

The team at YouGetHere Property Management has been working with visitors and homeowners in this region of Costa Rica for nearly a decade and a half. We completely comprehend how difficult it can be to find a perfect villa and line up an itinerary for large traveling groups. That’s why we’re here to assist with every step of the journey, from finding the right house at the proper price point, to arranging transportation, tours, chef and massage services. Our contacts in the area are top-of-line, 5-star companies that are run by locals.

And that’s why we feel confident saying, without a doubt, that Villa Aura is an awesome vacation rental choice. That’s because it’s very close to town -- this is important when 20 people want to do 15 different things each day -- and is in tip-top shape. Even the smaller details, like the family games and multiples of the same appliances, have been taken care of.
