Item Description

Perfect Climate, Sparkling Blue Waters, Lush Rainforests and Old-World Charm in Your Choice of Playa Herradura, Costa Rica, Placencia, Belize or Cabo San Lucas, Mexico for Seven Days & Six Nights in a Four-Bedroom Villa for Up to Eight People, Including a $250 Utilities Credit (Land Only). Check out of reality and check in to your own villa with your closest family and friends in your choice of three tropical destinations - the Rich Coast of Costa Rica, the charming fishing village of Placencia in Belize, or the vivacious Mexican city of Cabo San Lucas on the southernmost tip of the Baja Peninsula! All three locations offer a respite from the daily grind amid natural beauty, with adventure everywhere you turn in Costa Rica, the feeling of being off-the-beaten-path in Placencia, and the gorgeous desert and ocean landscapes of Cabo San Lucas. From the majestic volcanoes, dense forests, stunning river valleys and pounding waterfalls of Costa Rica, and the expansive beaches, excellent opportunities for fishing and diving, and southern cays of Belize, to the pristine azure water of the Sea of Cortez, it's time to pack your bags for the vacation paradise you've been dreaming of!

Set in an exclusive gated community, you'll stay in a spacious villa in Costa Rica that offers breathtaking views of the region's rich landscape. In a place full of lush vegetation and warm Pacific waters, your villa will be located near the small beach city of Jaco and provide easy access to beaches. Go for a meal out on the town, or have a private chef prepare breakfast, lunch, hors d'oeuvres and dinner using the freshest ingredients available, all done to your taste and budget. The beauty of having your own villa is that it's easy to bring your loved ones together for some incredible and memorable experiences! The wonderful tropical weather beckons you to this favored Central American region, where a wide spectrum of microclimates means you can be tanning on the beach in the morning and walking in the rainforest that same afternoon! Dare to fly over the jungle on a canopy tour, or strap in and rappel down one of the many beautiful waterfalls! Costa Rica is an ideal place for horseback riding tours, ATV tours, an aerial tram ride, and even a visit to Manuel Antonio National Park to boat through the mangroves to interact with the monkeys. Costa Rica also offers world-class offshore fishing, and you'll have access to a fleet of custom sport fishing yachts that will provide you with a once in a lifetime experience. Spend the day fishing for Blue Marlin, Striped Marlin, and Black Marlin, Pacific Sailfish, Dorado, Yellowfin, Wahoo, and Roosterfish, all of which thrive in the calm and clear waters off Costa Rica all year long and bring home your catch for one of the chefs to prepare for dinner!

Located on the beach, the Caribbean Sea creates the perfect backdrop for your luxury four-bedroom villa in Belize, where you'll be able to enjoy a lavish lifestyle with all the creature comforts of home, including a private pool! Primarily located in and around the palm-lined beaches of Placencia, you and your party will enjoy the rich Central American culture, the vivacious nightlife as well as numerous activities on both water and land. Spend the day exploring the second largest natural barrier reef in the world, or embark on a tour of ancient Mayan ruins, just a hop, skip and jump from your villa. This part of Belize also offers amazing fishing opportunities, and a fleet of custom sport fishing vessels can provide you with a once in a lifetime experience. You're invited into a world of lovely tropical beaches, grand adventures, diverse environments, and serenity that will appeal to any personality. Bordered on one side by a lovely mangrove-lined lagoon and on the other by the Caribbean Sea, Placencia is renowned for having some of the most beautiful beaches in the country. With the look and feel of an island, it's no surprise that Placencia is often described as the "caye (island) you can drive to." On the mainland, nearby attractions include hiking through the vast Cockscomb Basin Nature Reserve (home to some of Central America's last surviving jaguars), learning about native wildlife and plants on a boat trip up the aptly named Monkey River, and touring ancient Maya ruins such as Nim Li Punit and Lubantuum.

Indulge in decadence in your Mexican villa, situated in an ultra-exclusive gated community on the eastern side of Cabo, overlooking the ocean while also set very close to the Cabo nightlife, attractions, and famous golf courses. Each villa features four bedrooms and bathrooms, a private pool and breathtaking views of the Sea of Cortez and is among the finest that Cabo San Lucas has to offer. You'll be able to enjoy a lavish lifestyle with all the creature comforts of home. Cabo San Lucas has long been known for its party-loving spirit - after all, it's all about non-stop action, hot nightlife, celebrity sightings, gorgeous sunny beaches, world-class sport fishing and spectacular golf courses designed by some of the world's most legendary professional golfers! All of this is complemented by luxurious amenities and the breathtaking natural beauty of turquoise ocean waters, and the striking surrounding desert landscape dotted with cacti. Between the exceptional weather, extraordinary surroundings and endless options for attractions and activities, Cabo offers everything you need for a relaxing (or active!) vacation experience.
