    About the neighbourhood
    OCiO is located in Mal Pais, Costa Rica at the tip of the Nicoya Peninsula. The stunning natural scenery and relaxed lifestyle of Mal Pais has made it a favorite destination for travelers from around the world. Perched at the top of an oceanside mountain, each villa has the unique benefit of being your private tropical escape while being just minutes from town.
    How to get there
    Travelers can choose to fly to either of Costa Rica's International airports – the Juan Santamaria International Airport located in San Jose or the Daniel Oduber International Airport located in Liberia. Guests then have a few travel options to get to Mal Pais. Guests can choose to continue to Mal Pais by taking a regional flight into Tambor and then driving or taking a taxi to the property. The villas are located about 45 minutes from the Tambor airport. Otherwise, guests can choose to drive from either international airport, and our reservationists can provide driving options and directions. The drive from either airport takes approximately five hours depending on traffic and road conditions. If you choose to drive from Juan Santamaria International Airport, the trip includes a fe...
