I’ll take you inside Casa Chameleon at Las Catalinas in Costa Rica, a Relais & Chateaux resort that looks great on the surface, but was ultimately a real disappointment. I’ll show you what I loved, what disappointed me and everything in between. The resort’s built into a cliff with great views of the Pacific Ocean, and nice size villas with plunge pools.

This is one of the most expensive resorts in Costa Rica, so I think it’s fair to have high expectations.

Casa Chameleon at Las Catalinas is a 21-room resort located in the coastal town of Las Catalinas, situated on the Guanacaste coast of Costa Rica. The resort features 21 villas, each with its own private saltwater infinity pool and ocean views.

Casa Chameleon offers one on-site restaurant, which serves locally-inspired cuisine, focusing on fresh ingredients sourced from nearby farms and fishing villages. The restaurant also offers a selection of international wines and cocktails, and even though I didn’t like this resort. The views are some of the best in Costa Rica.

In addition to the private villa pools, the resort has a main infinity pool overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Guests can enjoy various activities, like yoga classes, cooking lessons, and guided hikes through the nearby hills.

The resort is situated in Las Catalinas, a car-free, master-planned town that emphasizes sustainability and outdoor living, but seemed sterile and uninteresting.

Casa Chameleon at Las Catalinas is located approximately 45 minutes from Liberia International Airport and about an hour from Tamarindo, a popular surf town known for its nightlife and dining scene.
