When the whole family finally gets together — cousins flying in from Chicago, grandparents from Miami, the whole crew reuniting for the first time in years — you don't want a hotel split across three floors. You want one place that holds everyone, where every generation finds their corner, and mornings start poolside before anyone's had coffee. Casa Ponte 2 (Casa VIP 10) in Jaco Beach, Costa Rica is built for exactly that.
This is a 10-suite private jungle villa — 8,900 square feet of space tucked into the lush hills above Jaco Beach. It sleeps up to 20 people comfortably. Every bedroom is a full suite with its own bathroom, air conditioning, and fresh linens. There's a main house and a separate annex so two family groups can have their own zones while still sharing the outdoor amenities everyone came for.
Why Families Choose Casa Ponte 2 for Reunions
The number-one thing families tell us when they book Casa Ponte 2 is this: "We've never all been in the same place at the same time." A private villa fixes that. No commuting between hotel rooms, no restaurant reservations for 18 people, no strangers at the pool. Everything — cooking, swimming, late nights on the terrace — happens in your own space, on your own schedule.
The infinity pool overlooks the jungle canopy and sets the mood the moment you arrive. There's a swim-up pool bar for the adults, a hot tub for the grandparents who want to soak rather than swim, and enough deck space for folding chairs, coolers, and all the chaos that comes with a great family vacation in Jaco Beach, Costa Rica.
A Private Chef — Included Free on Your First Day
Here's where Jaco Beach Chef changes the game. When you book Casa Ponte 2 through us, your first day of private chef services is completely free. That means we show up, we cook, and you don't lift a finger. Family reunions are memorable for the food as much as anything else — let us handle the meals while you make the memories.
We build the menu around your group. Traditional Costa Rican cuisine for the adventurous eaters, grilled proteins and familiar sides for the kids, dietary accommodations for anyone who needs them. We cook everything fresh, right there at the villa's gourmet kitchen, and we clean up when we're done. It's one of the reasons families who come to Jaco Beach for a reunion book us year after year.
Pricing for Family Groups
Casa Ponte 2 books at around $150 per person per day during green season — that works out to roughly $1,500/night for a group of 10, or less per person when you bring the full crew of 20. The all-inclusive package (food, drinks, activities) adds $199 per person per day and is worth every penny for large groups who don't want to manage logistics.
Compare that to booking 10 separate hotel rooms in Jaco — you'll spend more, be spread out across a property, and miss out on the shared experience that makes family vacations and reunions in Jaco Beach truly unforgettable. The villa wins on value, space, and experience every time.
10 Suites — Room for Every Branch of the Family Tree
Ten full suites means no fighting over beds. The main house sleeps the core group; the separate annex gives the extended family — or the teenagers — a bit of their own independence. Everyone's under the same roof, but everyone has their own space. That's the sweet spot for family vacations and reunions: togetherness without the friction.
The villa also comes with a gourmet kitchen large enough to actually cook for a crowd, a full indoor dining setup, and all the outdoor entertaining space you'd want. There's a water slide if you're traveling with kids, and the hot tub is a favorite gathering spot after the sun goes down.

Jaco Beach — The Right Destination for a Family Reunion
Jaco Beach has grown up. It's still got the surf breaks, the howler monkeys at dawn, and the pura vida energy — but it also has great restaurants, easy international flights into San José (about 90 minutes away), and enough activities to keep a group of 20 people busy for a week. Zip-lining in the rainforest. Crocodile boat tours. ATV rides. Surfing lessons. Sunset catamarans. There's no shortage of things to do during the day, and the villa is the perfect home base to come back to.
We've hosted dozens of family reunions at villas like Casa Ponte 2 through Jaco Beach Chef, and the feedback is always the same: it was easier than expected, the food was incredible, and everyone is already asking about next year.
