Wedding at the private estate venue at Bella Vista Costa Rica

All-Inclusive · Private Estate · Sleeps 28

A Private-Estate Wedding Venue in Costa Rica

A Costa Rica wedding venue for celebrations of up to 80 guests — ceremony, reception, and lodging for your whole party on one exclusive gated estate in the Central Valley, just 1h20 from the San José airport.

After hosting dozens of weddings at Bella Vista, we've learned couples don't just want a pretty ceremony spot — they want a venue that keeps their guests together, makes planning easy, and feels like a true destination experience. That's exactly what Bella Vista is: an all-inclusive private-estate wedding venue where the ceremony, reception, and lodging all happen in one place, with the entire property reserved for you alone.

A true venue — not a hotel

Your Whole Party, on One Private Estate

Bella Vista is a fully private, gated estate with four separate buildings and 10 bedrooms that sleep up to 28 guests — all reserved exclusively for your group. No strangers, no shared spaces, no shuttling guests between hotels. Family and friends wake up together, no transportation is needed on the wedding day, and the entire weekend feels like a shared experience. We host wedding events for groups of 15 to 80 guests.

  • 35 minutes to beautiful black-sand beaches
  • Cooler, more comfortable climate than the coast
  • Additional guests can stay at hotels 15–25 minutes away
