Find out just how relaxed you can be in the shade of the palapa at Casa Palomir. A fountain in the courtyard of this modern villa is just the appetizer for the main-course water features: an infinity pool and panoramic ocean views. If you tire of looking at the beach, make the 5-minute drive to the shore to put your toes in the sand or have dinner at the oceanfront Playa Rosa Beach Club.

Start your holiday by driving to the villa’s secluded location on a hill above the Bay of Careyes, then feel yourself calm down as you enter a private garden with bougainvillea and a burbling fountain from Rajasthan. But the best, breathtaking part is the front terrace: a wide expanse with an infinity pool and loungers facing the Bay of Careyes. In the evenings, watch the Apple TV or listen to the Sonos sound system instead of the waves, or share photos via Wi-Fi.

From the thatched roof of the palapa to a deck made of traditional wood from Mexico, the villa is designed to be part of the landscape—and to immerse guests in their surroundings. Get into the spirit in the open-sided living room and the open-concept living and dining areas. While chef and housekeeping service are included in your stay, there is a fully equipped kitchen as well.

If you’re traveling as a group of couples, you’ll appreciate the three bedrooms with king beds, plus one bedroom with two double beds. If you’re traveling as a family, you’ll appreciate that the fifth bedroom has two kid-friendly twin bunk beds. All five bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms.

Not only does a stay at Casa Palomir offer incredible views over the ocean, it also affords you the luxury of being just a 5-minute drive from Playa Rosa Beach Club. Make new friends over an oceanfront dinner of sashimi or relive your honeymoon over drinks by torchlight. It’s also a short drive from the villa to Pueblo Careyes and the locally beloved matches at Careyes Polo Club.
