We stayed at Casa Serendad for 5 days and absolutely loved it! The pictures of the house don’t do it justice, it’s beautiful and the view is breathtaking! Jorge our concierge was so helpful and guided us to so many local great places. The back patio has the most stunning view and we saw monkeys, iguanas, and macaws while sitting having coffee every morning. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay !

Great place, would stay again.

This is a lovely property. Everything worked well for our family. Four nice bedrooms were perfect for us and three kids, each having their own room with comfortable beds. Enjoyed seeing the squirrel monkeys, macaws, and toucans come right up to home for close views. Amazing. Kitchen and living room are not huge but had everything we needed. Everyone has commented on the very steep drive and that is accurate. But just take it slow. Property manager also very responsive to questions and needs. Thanks for a wonderful vacation in Costa Rica.

We had a wonderful time in the Manuel Antonio Park area. Everyone was very friendly and helpful! The house was perfect, plenty of room for privacy as well as enjoying time together as a group. It is not too far from things however, you feel like you’re in the middle of the jungle. Definitely recommend an especially to advantage of having Chef Cris come and make you meals!!

Our group of nine (four adults, four children, one infant) loved our stay at Casa Serenidad. Jorge and Hazel, the in-stay and pre-visit concierges, were incredibly helpful and arranged airport transfers, activities, grocery delivery, and more. We arrived to a pack-n-play set up for our infant. The house was furnished with towels, staple board and card games, basic spices and kitchen supplies. Massive master, rest of the rooms and bathrooms are comfortable. Independent control of temp. in each room. Really enjoyed our stay and the area as a whole. A few things that prospective visitors should know -- * Reviews mentioning the driveway are 100% accurate. You'll want a 4 wheel drive vehicle if you're not used to steep hills, and you'll need to walk to the base of the hill to meet cabs and scheduled rides for excursions. Cars and cabs will be necessary. Not an easy walk to town. * The kitchen is fine, not amazing. Some oddly laid out drawers that don't open all the way. Pots and pans are low end, but within the expected range for a rental like this. It would be difficult to prepare daily meals for a group that maxes out the occupancy. * The pool is beautiful but could be dangerous for some groups. Slick tiles around it. Our kids had a couple hard falls, then we got smart and laid towels down to create traction. Super deep, and you'll need to closely watch anyone who isn't a strong swimmer. Monkeys and birds were in the trees around the pool and a highlight of the visit.

We loved staying at Casa Serenidad! The location was great being between both Quepos and Manuel Antonio. We had restaurants and shops very close to our location and Jorge was quick to get us a cab to go anywhere we wanted. The house was also very nice with 4 bedrooms, a nice living area, and amazing pool with a view of the jungle canopy. We were able to see a lot of wildlife from the patio and pool such as macaws, iguanas, nighthawks, and several other unique animals. Jorge and Hazel were both very helpful in planning our stay and helping us book in house chefs, which was also a great experience. Overall, Casa Serenidad is a great place to stay and would highly recommend for other groups to stay here. Pura Vida!

Our group of 9 had an amazing stay here! The house is beautiful and spacious. The pictures are accurate. I actually thought the pool and deck area looked even nicer in person. I also felt like the primary room bathroom was a real selling point! House came with cooking utensils, basics like some tea or coffee or olive oil, as well as fun games. Regular towels and beach towels were provided. Our group loved making coffee and hanging out on the porch with our legs in the pool every morning. The staff were some of the nicest and most responsive people I’ve ever met. Jorge was always available and called us so many cabs! His help made transportation SO convenient given we didn’t get a car. He also recommended great places to eat. Note, the house is up an incredibly steep STEEP hill. Just be aware if you are renting a car or if you want to walk places. That’s the only downside of the house is it’s not really walkable anywhere even though it is nearby. That said, we didn’t care about that; the location is how you get those nice green views! My friend did see a bunch of monkeys one morning, also, which was cool. In summary: everyone in our group loved the house, and I’d stay here every year!

The home was perfect for our stay in Manuel Antonio. Both Hazel and Jorge were outstanding concierges. The home is very clean and comfortable with AC throughout. The pool is refreshing after long days sightseeing. Jorge recommended the Monarca cafe and we loved it. It is one of the few air conditioned cafes in MA and you are surrounded by beautiful butterflies. Highly recommend home and cafe!
