We have stayed at many places all over the world and have never experienced a home as amazing as this one. On a daily bases we seen 10or more monkeys, 2 sloths that live in the trees next to the pool, iguanas, birds etc. we saw more wild life at our home than we did in the national park. The house itself was a slice of paradise!! We had a group of 11 and had plenty of room, there was a daily housekeeper that came and tidy everything up and an amazing grounds keeper that was so kind and helpful. The location was perfect. We can’t wait to go back.

The house was beautiful, and the grounds were amazing. The pool was great, and had lots of space for all of us and spectacular ocean views. We also had regular visits from several monkeys, sloths, big lizards, (huge) butterflies and tons of birds (including macaws and parrots). It was like living in a wildlife sanctuary and it was really cool. The house itself is a little older, and it’s starting to show some signs of age, but despite the age, the team taking care of the house does a spectacular job maintaining the property, and are ridiculously responsive to any issues. I think I texted Vanessa 2-3 times over the week we were there, with relatively minor (but urgent) issues, and every time Santos (the property caretaker) was addressing the issue within minutes. Our only gripe, and we knew about it going in, was the lack of any AC in spaces outside the bedrooms. It was really hot during our stay, and it would have been nice to have a community space we could eat or just all hang out in that wasn’t oppressively hot. Again, the listing and reviews were clear, so it’s on us not knowing how hot it gets in March, but that was the only real downside we experienced.

We had an amazing stay from start to finish. They have everything covered so all you have to do is sit back and relax. Chef Sofia, Vanessa, Flacca, and Santos are so wonderful and truly add to the magic. Cannot wait to return!

Our stay in the Villa, was beautiful! The house is beautiful along with the team that runs the villa. Can not say bad , but I will say Thank you Pura Vida

Where to begin??? First, Vanessa, our concierge, went above and beyond the call of duty with our extended family of 12, ranging in age from 3 to 69. She helped us with everything with a smile, including setting up 3 tours to Manuel Antonio National Park, a boat ride, and a Sunset Sails Trimaran sunset and snorkeling cruise. She was very available, even on her day off which was her birthday! We had many requests, including several taxi rides, a Visa that needed printed out, information about the house, shopping, etc. etc. We were late on arrival and she stayed late waiting for us to arrive, and giving us a house tour, and information about staying there, such as how to keep MOnkeys out of the house! I can't say enough about her service and availability and her communication before and throughout our stay. Her English is excellent, and we probably relied on her so much since we had very limited Spanish. Thank you Vanessa! The house, or should I say MANSION, was like staying in a castle. The online photos do not do it justice, and it has many nooks and crannies to hang out, including several dining areas inside and out. The kitchen was amazing, with everything one could imagine needing, including spices and coffee. Our sons and their families including 4 children, shared this space quite a bit, while us grandparents took the lovely apartment, which was fully air conditioned and had its own kitchen. It was quite hot (90-95 degreed) during our stay, so the pristine pool and fans in the house were very refreshing. The AC in the bedrooms was excellent as well. The pool was incredible, and we spent most of our at house time in and around us, while the kids literally turned into fish! The first day and large family (about 20+) of Tika squirrel monkeys put on a show on the patio for us, wrestling, showing off, drinking pool water, looking for food, mommas and babies scampering around, for about 30 minutes. We also saw many white faced ,monkeys, a howler monkey, sloths, macaws, toucans, frogs, and many multi-colored iguanas on the trail around the house. Staying in Manuel Antonio was an unforgettable experience, and went way beyond any of our expectations. The cleaning staff came in every weekday to wash towels, clean, and empty trash. We felt very pampered and sometimes told them it was not necessary to wash the towels every day. They were very friendly and quite accepting and tolerant of our lack of Spanish conversation. 10 stars****

This property is right in the middle of everything you will want to see between Quepos and Manual Antonio. Close to shopping, restaurants, bars, the beach, the marina, everything. Secluded and secure location with probably the best views of the beach possible. 2 upstairs bedrooms are both full masters 1 upstairs room with 2 doubles and double with twin bunk. Full down stairs apartment. This is probably one of the nicest for rental houses in Quepos

Property was stunning and we had a daily parade of animals visiting us that made every day an adventure. Beaches were close by, pool was amazing. Everything was perfect. Staff were amazing. We were all sad to leave. Going back again soon!

Housekeeping very good Grounds keeper very good Property manager poor
