Perched above Melones Beach on the island of Culebra, Casa 9 is a 5-bedroom beachfront villa with sweeping views of the Caribbean, Tamarindo Beach, and Cayo Luis Peña. Wake up to stunning sunrises, unwind by the heated pool, and fall asleep under a sky full of stars.
The villa sleeps up to 12 guests (13 with an air mattress, available for an extra fee) and sits on a protected sea turtle marine reserve with direct beach access — just a 5-minute drive from town.
A scenic path winds through the property to a private gazebo, ideal for yoga or meditation. Open the kitchen windows and serve cocktails and food directly to the pool bar counter. The balcony is made for long evenings: hammocks, lounge chairs, electric BBQ, and unobstructed ocean views.
