Why choose Odisea domain ?
"More Than a Luxury Villa. A Place With a Soul."
There are beautiful villas all over Costa Rica.
But some places are more than beautiful.
They have a story.
A sense of place.
A feeling that stays with you long after you leave.
Odisea Domain is one of those places.
A private oceanfront estate on the Pacific coast of Guanacaste, created by a family who fell in love with this extraordinary place more than 25 years ago.
01 — A true Oceanfront experience
At Odisea, the ocean is not something you simply see from a distance.
It is part of the experience.
Both villas sit directly on the Pacific, with the sound of the waves, spectacular sunsets and direct access to the beach.
Mornings begin with the ocean.
Afternoons unfold around the pool.
And evenings belong to the sunset.
02 — Two villas. One private domain
Odisea brings together two distinctive oceanfront villas:
Villa Diosa del Mar
A warm, tropical and artistic home with 5 bedrooms for up to 12 guests.
Villa Hermès
A contemporary architectural villa with 5 bedrooms for up to 15 guests.
designed by architect and designer Patrick Rey.
In 2026, Villa Hermès was recognized by the Luxury Lifestyle Awards as Best Villa Architecture in Costa Rica — an international recognition of its distinctive architectural design.
They can be rented separately, or together as one exceptional private estate for up to 27 guests.
Perfect for extended families, groups of friends, celebrations and special gatherings.
03 — Architecture, Art & Nature
Odisea was not created as a hotel.
It was created as a home.
Patrick Rey, architect and designer, imagined the architecture around the landscape and the ocean.
Valérie Rey, artist and decorator, brought her creativity, art and passion for natural materials into the spaces.
The result is not a single design style.
Diosa del Mar and Hermès are deliberately different.
One is warm and tropical.
The other is contemporary and sculptural.
But both share the same philosophy:
to live in harmony with the ocean and the surrounding nature.
04 — A family-owned experience
Perhaps the greatest difference is simple:
Odisea is still a family affair.
Patrick and Valérie live in Costa Rica and personally oversee the property.
Their son Luca is part of the team as the on-site concierge, helping guests discover the area and arranging experiences during their stay.
Their daughter Alizé created the Odisea website and helps shape the family's digital presence and marketing.
Different generations.
Different talents.
One shared project.
When you stay at Odisea, you are welcomed by the people behind the place.
05 — More than 20 years in Costa Rica
The story began in 1999, when the Rey family arrived in Costa Rica.
They discovered Playa Junquillal when it was still a quiet and little-known corner of Guanacaste.
They fell in love with the beach, the landscape and the extraordinary feeling of freedom here.
In 2007, they began welcoming guests.
Years later, the villas are still personally cared for by the same family.
This is not a property we simply manage.
It is a place we have lived in, created and loved for decades.
06 — Playa Junquillal
Odisea Domain is located in Playa Junquillal, on the Pacific coast of Guanacaste.
It is a place for travelers who prefer authenticity and tranquility to crowds and large resorts.
Here, the pace is slower.
The beach remains wonderfully natural.
And there is space to simply breathe.
You are close enough to explore Guanacaste, while far enough away to feel that you have discovered somewhere of your own.
07 — A reputation built by our guests
Over the years, thousands of guests have stayed with us.
Families have celebrated together.
Friends have returned year after year.
Couples have discovered Costa Rica here.
And many guests have taken the time to share their experiences through reviews.
For us, those words mean more than any advertisement.
Because behind every review is a real memory.
A sunset.
A celebration.
A conversation.
A moment together.
Our guests have become part of the story of Odisea.
08 — Your own private world
There is something special about having a place that feels entirely yours.
No hotel lobby.
No crowded pool.
No strangers sharing your space.
Just your family or your friends, your own villa, your own pool, your own rhythm — and the Pacific Ocean in front of you.
Whether you choose one villa or the entire domain, Odisea gives you something increasingly rare:
space, privacy and time together.
09 — Privacy, with peace of mind
At Odisea, privacy does not mean being completely on your own.
The property is cared for around the clock, with a night security guard, an on-site concierge, and our dedicated team close by.
Our staff and the owners live just behind the estate, which means that help is always nearby whenever needed.
At the same time, our guests enjoy complete privacy within their villa and their own private space.
For us, true luxury is not only about beauty and tranquility.
It is also about feeling safe, comfortable and well cared for.
WHY ODISEA?
Because it is not simply about where you stay.
It is about how you feel while you are there.
It is the ocean.
The architecture.
The art.
The nature.
The privacy.
The family behind it.
The memories created here.
And the feeling, when it is finally time to leave, that you have discovered somewhere you will want to return to.
Some villas offer luxury, Odisea offers a place with a soul.
