Facilities and Capacity
This estate welcomes up to 70 guests to a couples’ wedding in paradise. The Del Pacifico Estate - Pura Vida Casas is an ocean-view ranch on a hilltop with 360-degree views. The estate is composed of three villas with a combined total of 12 bedrooms sleeping up to 30 guests onsite. There are six large event spaces in this jungle haven, two of which provide shelter from the refreshing tropical rains. NEW 2020 is the "Jungle Event Deck" where couples can enjoy a beautiful reception dinner with ocean views under the beauty of the large tropical trees. Couples won’t need to rent doves for their ceremony as the venue sits in the jungle, surrounded by parrots, macaws, toucans, and other colorful avian visitors. This spacious property allows couples to marry on a sandy beach or say their “I dos” overlooking the water, on the rooftop terrace, garden side, or the new Jungle deck. There are plenty of open areas and cabana-like spaces among the three villas. Couples will find industrial touches, like concrete walls, mixed with bright colors, and lush natural beauty.
