Set on the banks of the Baru River, surrounded by impressive tropical forests, the jungle resort Villa Rio Mar awaits you with traditional hospitality. Kick back and relax amidst luxuriant gardens in one of our 40 large thatched roof bungalows with open terrace like living rooms, king-size beds, bathrooms with hot water and hair dryer, safety deposit box, ceiling fans, a mini-bar, and of course...a hammock.

The unique Palenque restaurant serves international and local specialties. At our cozy bar, you will find a variety of delicious tropical cocktails.

Villas Rio Mar is the perfect spot for an active vacation. You can rent horses, mountain bikes, kayaks, river tubes and snorkel and fishing equipment. From behind the resort, hiking trails lead into the jungle up the mountains, offering you spectacular views of the rugged coastline.

The extensive grounds of the resort are a paradise for bird watchers and nature lovers alike. Don't be surprised to find a toucan perched on your private terrace early in the morning. And especially for those working on their suntan, they have a large swimming pool with a Jacuzzi and swim-up bar to cool you down. For those working on their shape, we have a tennis court. Though still a friendly small village, Dominical is a world famous hot spot for surfing. Last, their is the open air conference center hidden in the jungle, fitting up to eighty and ideal for nature and health oriented meetings and seminars.

Villas Rio Mar is a jungle and beach resort that combines comfort with a great nature and adventure experience.
