The White House (TWH) is an architectural masterpiece located beachfront on Playa Hermosa, just a little north of Santa Teresa in the Mal Pais Area, in Puntarenas, Costa Rica. Our signature home is an was designed by Los Angeles Poirier Designs, built at the edge of the legal high tide line (50 yards) and directly next door to the exclusive, Pranamar yoga resort. The yoga resort was built and is currently managed by the people that created the famous hotel Flor Blanca (which is 10 minutes down the road). We share staff, and security with Pranamar. Our proximity offers our guests the amenity of walking next door for any meal or a drink.

Inside, TWH features a large master bedroom with King size bed and overly generous walk in closet. Feel like royalty in what appears to be your own beachfront flat. Perfect for private yoga or massage sessions in room or on the upstairs deck. Downstairs is the pool side room queen room featuring a view and easy entrance to the deck of our beautiful infinity pool. The backroom is the peaceful room. Good for singles, or kids, although the two twin size beds can be put together as one. Walking out into the living space is the real Pura Vida. Entertaining space for your family or guests. A large dining table is available for dinners prepared by yourself or private (arranged) chef. If you choose to cook, enjoy ample cooking and cutting space, plenty of tools, and an amazing view of the ocean.

Although we have many deck chairs, wander our into our almond grove to sit on our beach-bed hut or just a few meters more to the chaise beach chairs.

The White House Villas are perfect for beach access luxury at a more affordable price, or to accommodate a larger party.  The villas have two rooms upstairs and a bathroom.  One bedroom is with a queen and the other with a double.  Downstairs boasts the coveted "Costa Rica Shower" - and indoor/outdoor experience not to be missed!
