The Hive

Set high above the coastline of Peninsula Papagayo, The Hive is a striking modern estate where jungle canopy meets the vast blue horizon of the Pacific. Designed for elevated living and immersive connection with nature, this private villa offers expansive interiors, panoramic ocean views, and refined amenities tailored for sophisticated gatherings.
Perched along a hillside within one of Costa Rica’s most exclusive enclaves, The Hive accommodates up to 12 adults and four children, making it ideal for multi-generational family escapes, private retreats, or celebratory gatherings.
Seamless Indoor–Outdoor Living
The architectural focal point of the estate is its sweeping infinity pool, positioned to dissolve into the Pacific beyond. Expansive terraces stretch across the upper level, creating a natural extension of the interior living spaces. Sun loungers, shaded lounges, and a dedicated cocktail area frame the pool, offering a front-row seat to Costa Rica’s vibrant sunsets.
An elegant al fresco dining table anchors the outdoor terrace, ideal for leisurely breakfasts or chef-prepared dinners beneath open skies.
Refined Interior Spaces
Inside, the villa unfolds through an open-plan design framed by floor-to-ceiling glass. Living areas flow effortlessly into the terrace, allowing ocean breezes and natural light to permeate every space. A plush lounge invites relaxation, while the dining area sits between the vibrant show kitchen and outdoor terrace—creating a fluid, immersive dining experience.
The Hive balances modern minimalism with warmth, ensuring both visual impact and comfort.
Leisure & Wellness
Downstairs, a private cinema room sets the stage for intimate film evenings, while a games room—complete with pool table, card table, and bar—adds a social dimension to the estate.
For those prioritizing wellness, the fully equipped gym overlooks panoramic jungle views. A private spa suite features a hammam and treatment rooms, offering space for restorative therapies in complete privacy.
Six Private Suites
Each of the six ensuite bedrooms serves as a private sanctuary, thoughtfully designed for comfort and seclusion. Four bedrooms feature king-size beds, one includes two king beds, and another offers two queen beds—allowing flexibility for families and groups traveling together.
Ocean and jungle views frame each suite, reinforcing the estate’s connection to its natural surroundings.
Elevated Service
The Hive delivers a fully serviced experience, including private chef and attentive staff, ensuring seamless execution from arrival through departure. Every detail—from curated menus to personalized itinerary planning—can be tailored to guest preferences.
(Please note: Staff reside on-site in separate, private quarters.)
