Indo Avellanas House: Luxury Coastal Villas in Costa Rica by Garton Group Architecture
Indo Avellanas House in Costa Rica offers luxury tropical villas with open-plan living, private pools, teak wood, and sustainable, nature-integrated design.
Indo Avellanas House, designed by Garton Group Architecture, is a luxury residential retreat situated in the pristine coastal enclave of Avellanas, Costa Rica. Nestled just steps from the Pacific Ocean, this exclusive development offers six thoughtfully designed villas—each catering to those seeking wellness, privacy, and immersive tropical living.


The villas comprise two distinctive layouts: one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. Both designs are centered around open-plan living spaces that seamlessly connect to private terraces and plunge pools. These spaces are carefully oriented to embrace the surrounding mature hardwoods, tropical gardens, and lush natural landscape, creating a harmonious indoor-outdoor experience.


Every element of Indo Avellanas House reflects sustainable luxury. The villas are constructed using a lightweight steel frame system and locally sourced teak wood, ensuring minimal impact on the site while celebrating Costa Rica’s rich natural resources. During construction, special attention was given to preserve existing mature trees, allowing the development to integrate naturally with its environment.



Interiors feature warm wooden finishes, open layouts, and thoughtful design elements that enhance comfort and functionality. From the elegant kitchens with bespoke wooden cabinetry to the tranquil bathrooms framed in glass and stone, each villa offers a refined yet inviting atmosphere perfect for relaxation and coastal living.


Indo Avellanas House not only provides luxury residential comfort but also fosters a sense of community and connection to the natural environment. Ideal for travelers, second-home owners, and wellness enthusiasts, the project exemplifies contemporary tropical architecture while respecting the ecological integrity of its site.
