Seasonal Offers & Extended Oceanfront Stays
There is a different rhythm to life on the Costalegre. Mornings begin with the sound of the Pacific Ocean, warm tropical air, and quiet uncrowded beaches instead of traffic, ice, and winter storms. Located directly on Playa de Coco, within the grounds of Villa Star of the Sea, our six-month furnished one or two-bedroom apartment offering is designed for individuals or couples seeking a slower, more comfortable seasonal lifestyle from November through May. This is not a traditional resort stay, but rather an opportunity to settle into a peaceful oceanfront environment and enjoy daily life along one of Mexico’s most naturally beautiful coastlines.
Villa Estrella del Mar offers a limited selection of seasonal promotions, extended stays, and longer-term oceanfront accommodations designed for guests seeking a more relaxed and personal experience along Mexico’s beautiful Costalegre. Whether planning a winter escape, a peaceful beachfront retreat, or an extended stay beside the Pacific, our offers are created to provide comfort, flexibility, and exceptional value in a quiet adults-only setting on Playa de Coco.
Playa de Coco and the surrounding Costalegre region offer a balance that is becoming increasingly difficult to find — peaceful beachfront living while still remaining connected to modern conveniences. Nearby communities including Barra de Navidad, Melaque, and Cihuatlán provide access to grocery stores, banking, pharmacies, medical clinics, dental care, local markets, restaurants, and everyday services, all within a comfortable driving distance. The region is known for its friendly atmosphere, excellent winter climate, and relaxed pace of life, attracting long-term seasonal visitors who value privacy, simplicity, and a connection to nature over crowded tourist destinations.
While many guests choose to have their own vehicle for day trips, shopping, and exploring the coastline, it is not essential for daily living. Reliable and very reasonably priced private transportation and driver services are available locally for airport transfers, shopping trips, appointments, and regional travel. Residents also enjoy access to the surrounding amenities of Villa Star of the Sea, including a quiet oceanfront setting, spacious accommodations, on-site dining nearby at La Sirena Gordita during operating seasons, and the unique experience of living beside one of the most scenic stretches of beach on the Costalegre. This offering is intended for those seeking more than a vacation — a place to comfortably spend the winter months and truly settle into coastal Mexico living.
Entering into Mexico for six months can be done on a tourist visa, good for 180 days. The visa is obtained on the incoming aircraft, or at the land border, free of charge.

One-Year Oceanfront Residence on the Costalegre
For those seeking more than a seasonal escape, our one-year furnished apartment residences at Villa Star of the Sea offer the opportunity to fully embrace life on Mexico’s Pacific coast. Situated on Playa de Coco along the Costalegre, these private one and two-bedroom apartments provide a rare combination of oceanfront tranquility, warm year-round climate, and the comfort of a longer-term home environment. Designed for individuals or couples who value space, privacy, and a quieter way of living, this offering allows residents to settle into the natural rhythm of coastal Mexico rather than simply visit for a short stay.
Life along the Costalegre is intentionally unhurried. The region remains one of Mexico’s less commercialized coastal areas, known for its natural beauty, expansive beaches, tropical landscapes, and welcoming local communities. Nearby towns such as Barra de Navidad, Melaque, and Cihuatlán provide convenient access to grocery stores, fresh markets, pharmacies, banking services, medical clinics, dental care, and everyday shopping, while larger services and international air connections remain accessible through Manzanillo. Many long-term residents are drawn to the area not only for the climate, but for the simplicity and quality of life that comes with living beside the ocean in a peaceful setting.
A personal vehicle is recommended for those planning extended stays and exploring the surrounding coastline, villages, and regional attractions at their own pace. However, dependable and affordable transportation services are also readily available for airport transfers, shopping excursions, appointments, and local travel, available from our local, bi-lingual, professional driver. Residents enjoy the comfort of a fully furnished apartment within the quiet grounds of Villa Star of the Sea, together with the atmosphere of a small oceanfront community where privacy, nature, and relaxed coastal living remain the defining experience.
For those with residency, or considering residency, we rely and work with a local expat assisting people who have made the choice to make Mexico their new home. She is very pleasant, well connected, professionally and legally, and has many years experience assisting people new to Mexico, to obtain residency and fit into their new home and lifestyle.
