Contrary to popular opinion, private oceanfront Villa Rentals are not limited to extravagantly wealthy individuals who nose their private jet up to the VIP lounge, and have a Bentley standing by on arrival.

Here at Villa Oceana, where the Sapodilla beach definitely ranks among the ‘enviable beaches’, your comfort levels will be gratefully familiar, the pool is entirely yours for the duration; family and friends can spend as much – or little – energy on meal preparation as is acceptable, or simply crank up the barbecue and nominate a BBQ ‘chef’ for the night – with the promise of a steady flow of ice-cold refreshers … down here it’s called ‘self-catering’, and is one of our favorite year ‘round rituals.

Accommodations at Villa Oceana are arranged to create easy access to the full width terrace covered by a roof overhang, and the similarly full width pool. The terrace is outfitted for outside dining and lounging, and the pool features a chest high wall which increases the privacy levels that are established by the indigenous growth and tropical landscaping on the grounds. A comfortable living room, where the TV holds court, looks directly out over the beach, and while the kitchen is not huge, it is well equipped, with plenty of counter and storage space.
