Ocio Villas Mal Pais
About this stay
The private plunge pool attached to each of the ten villas is the detail that separates Ocio from a standard hotel room, giving every stay its own quiet corner alongside a shared public pool with jungle and ocean views. There's no restaurant or bar on the property, so the fully equipped kitchens do the real work, backed up by staff recommendations for local restaurants when cooking isn't the plan. Two rooms can take an extra bed, though the minimum age on property is ten, which keeps the atmosphere calmer than a typical family resort. Paid activities include fishing, horseback riding, canopy zip-lining and trips to nearby nature reserves, alongside spa treatments for a quieter day. The property sits a five-minute drive from Mal Pais beach and about thirty-five minutes from Cobano's local airport, and renting a 4x4 or ATV is the practical way to explore beyond the villa gate.
