Casa Ibu: A Balinese-Inspired Tropical Villa Near Santa Teresa

Surrounded by lush tropical gardens and overlooking the virgin jungle and ocean beyond, Casa Ibu is a warm, beautifully and carefully crafted four-bedroom villa inspired by the architecture and spirit of Bali and Southeast Asia.

Built with rich local hardwoods and filled with custom artisan furniture, antique Indonesian pieces, and carefully collected Southeast Asian artwork, Casa Ibu has a character and warmth that make it feel less like a vacation rental and more like a private tropical home.

At the heart of the house, large wooden shutters open the living room completely onto an expansive floating deck, creating a beautiful connection between the indoor living spaces, the gardens, and the jungle beyond. During the day, ocean breezes move naturally through the house; in the evening, the deck becomes the perfect place to watch the sunset, listen to the jungle, or gather for drinks beneath the stars.

Just minutes from the beaches of Santa Teresa and Playa Hermosa, Casa Ibu offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful, private tropical sanctuary surrounded by nature, with the surf, restaurants, and energy of Santa Teresa close by.

The Space

Casa Ibu combines the relaxed indoor-outdoor living of a modern tropical home with thoughtful design, comfortable modern amenities, and a distinctly Southeast Asian aesthetic.

4 Bedrooms
Four bright, breezy bedrooms with A/C and ceiling fans. Two bedrooms feature king beds, a Queen in the studio, while the fourth has two single beds — ideal for children or friends traveling together.

3 Bathrooms
Three clean, modern bathrooms, each with a comfortable walk-in shower.

Balinese-Inspired Indoor–Outdoor Living
The main living area is designed around the tropical landscape. High ceilings, natural materials, large wooden shutters, and wide openings allow the living room to flow directly onto the expansive deck and into the surrounding gardens.

A Home Filled With Character
Casa Ibu was furnished with an eye for craftsmanship and authenticity. Custom-made artisan pieces sit alongside antique Indonesian furniture and Southeast Asian artwork, creating a warm, collected atmosphere rather than a conventional contemporary villa.

Chef’s Kitchen
Designed by a professional chef, the kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances, quality cookware, generous preparation space, and everything needed to prepare and enjoy meals together.

Private Pool & Floating Terrace
The pool terrace is the natural heart of Casa Ibu. Spend slow afternoons swimming and sunbathing, gather for drinks at sunset, or relax on the wide floating deck overlooking the jungle and ocean.

Tropical Gardens
Mature tropical landscaping and a growing food forest surround the villa with privacy and brings the sights and sounds of the jungle right to your doorstep. Howler and Capuchin monkeys, tropical birds, butterflies, and other wildlife are frequent visitors.

What Makes Casa Ibu Special

Guests often tell us that it's the feeling of the house that makes their stay memorable.

It's the warmth of the local wood.
The sound of the shutters opening onto the deck in the morning to the Howler monkeys in the trees.
The Indonesian antiques and handmade furniture.
The thoughtful, simple yet stylish design.
The artwork collected from Southeast Asia.
The breeze moving through the high cathedral ceiling of the open living room.
The jungle stretching toward the ocean.
The feeling of being completely immersed in nature while still having every modern comfort.
The vibrant and magical energy of the space.
Casa Ibu has a sense of place — a tropical Costa Rican home with a distinctly Balinese soul.

The Area — Santa Teresa, Costa Rica

Casa Ibu is located near Santa Teresa, one of Costa Rica's most celebrated beach destinations, known for its beautiful coastline, world-class surf, spectacular sunsets, and relaxed international atmosphere.

Beaches
Playa Hermosa and Santa Teresa are just minutes away by car, offering excellent surfing, swimming, beach walks, and unforgettable sunsets.

Wildlife & Nature
The surrounding jungle is alive with tropical birds, butterflies, howler monkeys, and other wildlife. At Casa Ibu, nature isn't something you have to go looking for, it's part of the experience.

Food & Local Flavor
Discover beachfront cafés, excellent restaurants, farm-to-table dining, and traditional Costa Rican sodas serving authentic local food.

Adventure & Wellness
Surfing, yoga, snorkeling, waterfall hikes, horseback riding, canopy tours, and spa experiences are all within easy reach.

Santa Teresa offers a rare combination of wild natural beauty and vibrant beach-town energy, making it easy to spend your days as actively — or as slowly — as you like.

Why Casa Ibu Stands Out

Casa Ibu is more than a vacation rental. It's a tropical home with a distinct sense of style and soul.

Thoughtfully designed by owners who live nearby, the villa brings together Costa Rican tropical living with the warmth and aesthetic of Bali and Southeast Asia.

Here, you can enjoy the comfort of a beautifully equipped home while feeling genuinely immersed in the surrounding landscape.

Come Experience Casa Ibu

Wake up to birdsong and jungle sounds. Open the wooden shutters and let the tropical breeze move through the house. Step onto the deck with your morning coffee and look out across the jungle toward the ocean.

Spend the afternoon by the pool, surf the beaches of Santa Teresa, or simply stay home and enjoy the house.

Then, as the sun goes down, gather on the terrace for drinks and dinner beneath the tropical night sky.

Casa Ibu is where Costa Rican nature meets the warmth, craftsmanship, and soul of Bali and Southeast Asia — a private tropical home designed for living, gathering, and slowing down.
