Una estadía inigualable con una anfitriona increíble. El apartamento no podría estar mejor ubicado con la mejor vista de todo Manuel Antonio y Nathalia no pudo haber sido más atenta y hospitable. Se les recomiendo, en especial para los que viajan en pareja!

We had a room on top that overlooked the ocean just like the pictures. We could see the sun set and rise from the bed room every morning which was breath taking! The apartment can get pretty hot as the windows are large and holds in the heat like a sun room. The restaurant next door was extremely good!

We spent 5 nights at this property in December 2015, around the holidays. Overall, I would highly recommend this location as a vacation spot and this property as a unique way to spend your time around Manuel Antonio. If you are not the big-resort type, this centrally-located apartment with astounding views is for you. Below, I'll list some pros and cons based on our experience. **Pros - View. As mentioned, it is incredible, as advertised. You are at the top level of an apartment with a view onto the rainforest and the ocean. Sunrises and sunsets are glorious. - Location. Again, as mentioned, the location is central. You are right next to several nice restaurants, bars, cafes, and stores on the road leading to Manuel Antonio. You are a short drive away from several amazing beaches. - Kitchen. This place is equipped with a full kitchen, fridge, bar for sitting and eating. - AC. The bedroom is air-conditioned, which is a must during the hot/humid times of the year. - Hostess. Nathalia is a great hostess. She was very prompt in her responses to us when we booked and planned our arrival. She met us on Christmas day promptly to give us our key and guided us to the property, so we didn't have to look. She even put a crib there for our daughter, since there was only one bed otherwise. Very, very accommodating. - Maid. There is a maid service that is included for long stays. We ended up not needing it, but nice to know that's an option. - Pool. There is a pool on the property. Nothing spectacular, but a nice spot for a party and a good afternoon option if you have a kid. - Laundry. There is laundry on the property. We didn't end up using it, but nice to know it's there. **Cons - Internet. During busy times, the internet can be flaky. There are only 2 access points across the whole property, and for us the signal was very weak throughout our stay. However, you'd be crazy not to have a data plan if you're driving around Costa Rica, for navigational purposes. We did, and so this wasn't a big deal for us. - Balcony. As mentioned earlier, only the bedroom is air-conditioned. The reason is that the living room is more of an enclosed balcony and is not air-tight. This means that it will be hot there in the afternoons and you can expect to see an occasional lizard or a mosquito in there. - Shades. The bedroom is separated from the living room by glass sliding doors. As the living room is all windows, in the morning, the sun quickly lights up both rooms. During our vacation we woke up at 5:30am as a result of bright light coming into the bedroom. - Noise. This is part of a condo complex, so we did experience occasional party/music noise coming from neighboring units, thankfully not for a long time.

Nathalia was a great host. The place was just as described. As the other reviews (URL HIDDEN) is an amazing location close to great restaurants and one could not find a place with a more amazing view. We had a wonderful time and would recommend the place to anyone planning a trip to Manuel Antonio or Quepos.

loved the place. was really easy to get to. the view was phenomenal. just waking up to that everyday was unbelievable! would definitely book it again. plus everything you need is literally next to you. you're in the heart of Manuel Antonio

The apartment is super located - a supermarket, good restaurants (falafel is a must!) and the stop of the public bus is only few meters from the apartment. You got a really nice view towards the ocean and the national park. With the bus you can get easily to the beach for less money. Nathalia is also a very good host. Her respond was quick and she helped us with all of our questions. *thumbs up*

The photos don't lie - the view is absolutely incredible! The location is great, right by the bus stop (get off at the Falafel Bar when coming from Quepos), grocery store, Cafe Agua Azul, Cafe Milagro (live music every night!), and tons of other restaurants between Quepos and the park. Open the windows at night and you'll hear music and laughing from restaurants on the main road. The apartment is within walking distance to the national park and public beaches. We saw parasailers, howler monkeys and a toucan out the window. The bathroom and towels were clean and the bed was comfortable. I would suggest bringing pillowcases if you don't bring your own pillows - there were only decorative pillowcases on the pillows provided. Overall a perfect place to stay, especially without a car. We had a great time and would go back in a heartbeat!

The location was great (next to convenience store, good restaurants, and a 15 minute walk to the beach) and the apartment had a beautiful view. Nathalia was responsive, though we didn't require much. We really liked the place and would stay here again.

Vista inmejorable, un balcón soñado para desayunar, relajarse y ver más animales que en el parque mismo.

Gracias

Une vraie cabane face au pacifique. La vue est splendide, avec la visite de singes capucins , aras, papillons. Le quartier est pittoresque avec possibilité d'accéder à de magnifiques plages. Felicia nous a accueilli avec beaucoup de gentillesse.

Located halfway in between Quepos and Manuel Antonio, Casita Bamboo is a great location for local food, beach access, and Manuel Antonio National Park. We would recommend taking a "directo" bus from SJO to Quepos and then a taxi to Mango Moon. Casita Bamboo is located one door down from Mango Moon. We walked to Emilio's for breakfast, El Picador for dinner, Mango Moon for drinks, and the corner market for groceries. While hanging out at the cabin we had the most beautiful ocean views and sunsets. We had daily visits from the howler monkeys, capuchin monkeys, squirrel monkeys, and geckos. This place is especially magical because a pair of Macaws released two months ago have a nest in a nearby tree. They are so amazing to see and watch. Be sure to ask Felicia anything. She will help you in everything from directions to getting bus tickets back to SJO to calling a cab. She knows all of the secrets of this breath-taking land. Gracias Felicia por todo!!!

This is a gorgeous place to stay. Beach is a 20 minute walk or you can take the bus or cab for cheap. Monkeys and birds all over! Get the Mango Moon breakfast next door and go to Emilio's Cafe!

Absolutely amazing! Would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. My boyfriend and I stayed here for 3 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. We saw incredible wildlife including monkeys, parrots, toucans and sloths, all while just sitting on the balcony. Felicia who you will meet when you get there is really incredible. She was so sweet and helpful and had really great recommendations for places to eat and beaches to visit. She was very attentive and an absolute pleasure to talk to. We had an issue with the key not working one morning and she came to fix it right away. The location is also really great. You are very close to delicious restaurants and a really cute boutique hotel that has great breakfast and beautiful views. Beaches are about a 15-20 min walk but very easy to find. Staying here was definitely a highlight of our trip and we really hope to be able to come back and stay there again soon!

enjoyed our stay, the view was very nice.

This spot is exceptional. We highly recommend staying here. The view is incredible, with a hammock to lay in as you enjoy a view of the beach and the possibility of seeing wildlife including monkeys and toucans and other wonders. Access to so many wonderful places and trips is also a highlight of this spot. We did tours and were picked up from right outside our door. The bed is comfortable and the couch is too. Worth every penny to stay here.

Pase unos días muy buenos en casa de Carlos. La habitación es como se indica y la cama es muy cómoda. Me recogieron cuando llegué en bus, los desayunos son increíbles y la clase de surf que tomé con Carlos me ayudó a perfeccionar lo que ya había aprendido. Muy buen rollo. Lo recomiendo. Gracias Charlie.

Carlos fue amable y muy comunicativo. Jorge nos ayudó en nuestra estancia y nos hizo unos desayunos super ricos. Carlos da todo tipo de indicaciones para llegar a la casa no obstante es un poco complicado acceder en coche. Al estar situado en plena vegetación hay bastante ruido de animales por la noche y además no tiene ventanas por lo que no se puede evitar ciertos sonidos, supongo que es cuestión de acostumbrarse. La casa tiene su encanto con una estética surfera muy particular y si te interesa recibir clases de surf es sin duda el sitio más adecuado . La compañía es muy buena.

La comunicacion con carlos fue muy fluida y las indicaciones claras. Finalmente no nos quedamos a dormir porque llegamos de noche, el acceso a la casa no está en buenas condiciones, e ibamos con un coche alquilado sin 4x4 y muy cargados. Creo que Carlos se lo tomó a mal pese a que en ningun momento le pedí la devolucion del dinero, pero no quise arriesgarme por el carro y las lluvias. Salud!

Gran estancia en la casa de carlos. Es una persona muy cercana e increible. Es instructor de surfing asiq puedes rentar tablas e ir con el al mar incluso. A sido genial, si quieres vivir como realmente viven en costa rica este es tu lugar. Espero volver pronto!

Encontré en el alojamiento lo que buscaba. Estuve muy a gusto. Carlos es excepcional! Pura vida!

El ambiente en la casa es muy tranquilo y está muy cerca de supermercados, restaurantes, playas y transporte público. Carlos es simpático y amable. Ah, el desayuno está perfecto para empezar el día con mucha energía.

Hola, si te gusta el surf y una casa animada con mucha gente, esta es tu casa. Carlos te ofrece opciones para hacer por Manuel Antonio, e.g salida en kayak

La buena ola. Carlos es encantador, muy atento y un excelente anfitrión. Ofrece un alojamiento sencillo, digno y muy bien ubicado. Si buscan algo auténtico en Manuel Antonio este es su sitio.

En general muy bien el lugar, excelente en general. Solo tener paciencia con el Ruido el aire acondicionado.

Excelente atención de parte de Martín y Marisol su asistente, hermoso lugar muy tranquilo, la casa cuenta con todo lo que necesitas, recomendadísimo, espero volver muy pronto...

Hermoso lugar! Muy tranquilo, excelente atencion. Una pileta espectacular.

Martin est un très bon hôte. Il a répondu à plusieurs de nos questions même avant notre arrivée. Il est disponible, respectueux et discret. Marisol est aussi très gentille. Le logement est très beau et confortable. La piscine est super! Ça prend 10 Minutes de marche pour se rendre à la route principale et on attend régulièrement l'autobus plus de 10-15 Minutes. Cette partie a été difficile pour nous avec les chaleurs intenses. Je crois que c'est mieux d'utiliser les taxis pour se deplacer (environ 5 dollar). Mais quand nous arrivions au loft, la piscine était salvatrice! Pour ceux qui aiment la tranquillité et la beauté du paysage juste derrière la maison vous serez servis. On n'entend pas la circulation effréné de la route principale. Un matin nous avons marché jusqu'à la plage, ça nous a prit 45min à 1h...et il n'y a pas de trottoir alors c'était désagréable, c'est mieux de prendre l'autobus ou le taxi. À 5 Minutes à pied il y a un petit dépanneur avec les choses de base pour cuisiner mais pour avoir du vin ou de la bière il faut marcher jusqu'à chemin principal (10 Minutes) Je recommande cet endroit!!!

The Moonshine Inn is fabulous! Martin has a beautiful and relaxing spot. He is always available via email or phone and the property manager Marisol is a delight! She assisted with our espanol and made sure we felt at home. The "moonshine toast" upon arrival was fitting and welcome as well. If you are looking for a gorgeous, well kept, relaxing spot just outside the bustle of Manuel Antonio (less than 5 minutes), this is the place!

Martins house is stunning! We were staying on the top floor and you can see through the trees the water in the distance. The pool is lovely to swim in and Martin was very helpful during our stay.

Let me tell you a (true) story. It was our first time visiting Costa Rica so we decided to hedge our bets by spending half the vacation in Quepos (for the wildlife/adventure in Manuel Antonio and Corcovado and half in a swanky, all-inclusive resort in Guanacaste (for a some boozy R&R on the beach). We reached Quepos at 10:30pm after a rainy, 2.5-hour drive from SJO airport. And then we reached Moonshine Inn. The next morning, we cancelled the entire Guanacaste reservation so that we could spend our entire vacation at here. [NOTE: it was PURE LUCK that the loft happened to be available for those additional days; don't try to hedge your bets like we did. The beach situation in Quepos is pretty amazing]. The general manager/concierge Martin has amazing recommendations for adventure activities and restaurants (use them!). If you want to stay in, the kitchen is fully equipped (fridge, range, toaster, cutting boards). There's a safe but security is already pretty hardcore (sliding iron barred exterior doors plus fence with remote-controlled gate at the bottom of a 60m-long, 12%-grade hill). Although not that you really need it--it's a pretty chill, quiet area. You can use taxis if you want but there's ample, safe parking for rental cars. Also, yes, the profile photos are real/accurate, e.g. the infinity pool, the view of the bay, the interiors, etc. Finally, the bird situation is pretty cool too; there's a larger villa ("Casa del Sol", I think?) adjacent to the Moonshine Inn and a toucan would tap on its windows most morning. Heh, I probably sound like a paid review so I'll wrack my brain for negatives. On the terrace outside our loft, I saw three (3) really big ants on our second morning there. But I never saw them again--neither inside nor outside--despite being in a lush, fairly jungle-y area. There's also 80 meters of road with bad potholes leading up to the front gate; we had a compact coupe and had to drive slowly. So, that's the sum total of downsides: three bugs on the terrace and a few potholes. The upside: a lodging and hospitality experience that would easily cost 3-4x more at a hotel chain.

Martin is a fantastic host. He made us very welcome and was always available for advice. He knew the area extremely well and helped us pick the worthwhile stuff to do and avoid the tourist trap stuff. The house is exactly as described. We rented the top floor of the bi-level house. We had neighbors downstairs the entire time, but never heard them. The house is very tastefully decorated and outfitted with high quality stuff- from the kitchen, to the bedroom. I feel like some hosts may skimp on furnishings they know are intended for guests, but this was not the case here. The location is somewhat away from the main road, at the edge of the jungle area which meant it was 1. very peaceful and 2. had lots of nearby wildlife. There is a little corner store for food/drinks less than a 5 minute walk away and you can get to a bus or taxi with a 7 or 8 minute walk. We didn't rent a car at all while we were in Manuel Antonio and didn't feel like we ever needed one. Frankly, we spent more time at the house than we anticipated. A large part of why we were there was to relax, and lounging in the pool with cold drinks, watching the monkeys play in the trees right beside us perfectly fit that bill. Martin's place was pretty much exactly what we were looking for.

Nos quedamos cuatro noches. Es un sitio muy tranquilo y comodo. Cerca de restaurantes y tiendas. Tal y como se describe en la pagina. Una vista muy bonita, especialmente al atardecer. Tiene todo el equipamiento para preparar una comida, todo nuevo. Muy cerca al parque Nacional y playas locales, todo a 10 minutos en coche y se puede caminar a restaurantes, supermercados, bares... Recomendable.

The place was awesome had a beautiful view and the property was well taken care of. Chris the local host was very helpful and friendly. Great connections for fun activities. Had a great time would stay again and recommend it to family and friends!

Beautiful location! Chris was amazing. He suggested great restaurants and activities for our family! Our 2 year old loved it as much as we did. From the balcony we saw toucans, scarlet macaws and monkeys!!

Nice and clean place to stay. Highly recommended for real!

Great appartement with an amazing view! Was very well kept! We would like to stay longer! The matresses were very good. Chris was so kind to do our laundry, because the washing machine was broken. Thank you so much again, we really appreciated that!!!! Everything was perfect!

The first day we arrived at Casa Camila we immediately wished we had booked a longer stay! The view is gorgeous, the apartment is beautiful, clean, and functional and it honestly blew away my expectations. It's located just steps from several great dining options and a little convenience store that covers all your basic grocery needs, but is also in a private and quiet location at the same time. Best of both worlds. It's about a 20 minute walk to the nearest public beach and an easy 5 minute drive to the national park. I already want to come back to Casa Camila!

The place is beautiful and very well kept. The concierge, Chris, is very helpfull and makes you feel very well taken care of. The view is even better than in the pictures. The place is close to a supermarket, a few restaurants, a bank and a bus stop. The beach is around a 10 minute bus ride from here (it costs less than a dolar to take the bus). Our stay here was great!

As advertised and just lovely. Chris was friendly and helpful.

Nuestra estadía en Manuel Antonio fue buena, en algunas cosas no quedamos del todo conformes, quizás por error nuestro, el detalle de no notar que la cocina no estaba apta para cocinar, por no tener anafe, ni hornalla como en el resto de los alojamientos que hemos parado. Tampoco un estar con mesa y sillas. Al mismo tiempo, los ruidos molestos de los inquilinos de arriba nos perturbaron por la noche y por la mañana. La ubicación fue buena, pero nos movimos con auto alquilado para todos lados porque la playa no queda tan cerca como para ir caminando, y las pendientes son muy pronunciadas. La vista y la limpieza del departamento fueron lo mejor.

Esta bien para pasar unos días, un poco elevado el precio en relación con el apartamento. Lo mejor es la terraza con vista al mar.

Desde que hice la reserva, Thomas me atendió de la manera más amable y oportuna. Me informó que su asistente, Angie, estaría a cargo ya que durante mi visita iba a estar fuera y ella fue muy atenta y amable (le hice varias consultas). La casa era cómoda y limpia, el servicio de limpieza llegó uno de los tres días que estuve allí y dejaron paños limpios. No tuve problemas con la cuesta, la cual aunque es bastante empinada, logré subir con mi carro sin ningún problema.

Perfect location! Walking distance to many amazing restaurants and bars. Make sure to check out Lush, Cafe Milagro, and Barba Roja. There is parking for a car, but the driveway is very steep. You have to be very careful if you are driving a manual because there is a ledge at the side of the driveway. You can choose to park on the main street and walk down the driveway, but realize that you definitely get a workout walking up the driveway. The studio was clean other than the occasional bugs in the bathroom. The only negative about this place was the fans provided; they only stayed on for 180 minutes, so when we were sleeping at night we had to turn it on throughout the night since there was no AC and it was much more humid than usual. Thomas was VERY responsive from the moment we booked the studio. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and provided very detailed directions. Thomas booked a zip line trip and Manuel Antonio trip for us, both of which were amazing! Great host and great place (other than the timed fans). Would recommend to others.

Lovely view, we enjoyed our stay very much, particularly the hammock! The drive is VERY steep but we liked the challenge! Angie was very helpful and we loved the national park tour she arranged for us!

Thomas was always very prompt with communication and all business was handled courteously and professionally. Any issues I had with the apartment were quickly addressed and remedied (e.g. running toilet fixed quickly). The balcony is the kind of place you could lounge all day peacefully, gazing out at the stunning view. You even have the view straight from the bed! On the afternoon that I arrived, the howler monkeys were calling in a nearby tree. I was treated later to views of several capuchins with babies, several howlers with babies, an agouti, an iguana, and a hummingbird all from the balcony. The apartment is nicely located, close enough to walk to food and transport yet removed enough to muffle traffic noise. If you don't have a car, you do have to walk a rather steeply inclined driveway in order to get between the apartment and the main road. I got used to it and considered it a good fitness challenge! All in all, the service from Thomas was good, the space was clean, modern and fresh, the view is the stuff of dreams. Thanks Thomas!

The host had a point of contact names Angie that was very helpful. The place was in a good location & has a great view

The place was as advertised - basic amenities, good location and fantastic view. The driveway is a steep hill so it may be uncomfortable for some. We were able to make sandwiches for breakfast but wish there was a small hot plate to cook with. There are some restaurants nearby that are walkable and there's a bus stop right outside to take you to the beach. Hanging out on the balcony was our favorite part about staying here!

Super lugar para alojarse, tal cual como aparece en las fotos, todos los servicios un lugar muy acogedor y muy bello. La zona esta muy centrica para llegar a manuel antonio y a muchas playas cerca muy lindas, asi como hay restaurants y supermercados para.comprar todo lo necesario, los.anfitriones de lo mejor unas personas muy a todo dar los.cuales.nos.ayudaron para que nuestra estadia fuera de lo mejor. Estuvieron en todo momento (URL HIDDEN) y tuvimos la.oportunidad de convivir con ellos un abrazote. Pura vida!!

Estuvimos 4 noches en la casa de Carolina y Iñigo y nos sentíamos muy bien. Los dos son super simpáticos y solícitos y la casa era muy grande y limpia. También hay un bus cerca de la casa hasta el centro que es muy barato. Muy recomendable.

Nos encantó quedarnos en Casa Titico!! Super bonita, amplia y cómoda. Caro e Iñigo son unos excelentes anfitriones y sus perros son de lo más cariñoso!!

Increíbles Carolina e Iñigo. La comunicación fue excelente en todo momento y sus consejos de gran ayuda. Ellos son maravillosos anfitriones y la casa se encuentra muy cerca de zona de restaurantes y del Parque Manuel Antonio. La única desventaja de la casa, y no es culpa de ellos, está en el ruido de la calle. No es grave pero para quien tenga sueño ligero quizá se encuentre con que el ruido de las motocicletas de la zona sea un poco molesto. La casa cuenta con todos los servicios, cocina funcional, refrigerador, buen internet y es cómodísima y completamente independiente.

Buena ubicacion, tranquilo y comodo

Carolina es una gran anfitriona. Desde antes del viaje estuvo en contacto y se ofreció para cualquier duda que hubiera. Una vez en la casa, tanto ella como su pareja fueron muy simpáticos y amables.

Una experiencia maravillosa. Unos anfitriones inmejorables, que ahora son mis amigos, buena gente!. La casa está implecable, y muy cerca de playas increibles, y del parque Nacional Manuel Antonio, en plena naturaleza, con perezosos por los caminos,

Todo perfecto, refacción calidad precio fantástico, Iñigo un tipo fantástico, nos ayudó en todo y nos recomendó unas playas estupendas para surfear!! se conoce la zona a la perfección

Pasamos un fin de semana increíble en Jungle Villa. El lugar es aún mejor de los que se puede apreciar en las fotos, tiene unas áreas sociales muy amplias y frescas, los cuartos son muy cómodos y con excelente ventilación. La cocina esta equipada con todo lo que se pueda necesitar. La vista panorámica es impresionante y tuvimos un desayuno muy especial en el que nos visito una manada numerosa de monos. Es un lugar muy tranquilo para cualquiera que sea amante de la naturaleza y quiera hospedarse en un ambiente relajado, rodeado de arboles y con todas las comodidades a la mano, incluyendo unas piscinas increíbles. Ad es una gran persona, sumamente amistoso, atento todo el tiempo, siempre estuvo pendiente de que nos encontráramos a gusto y fue muy agradable conocerlo. Es definitivamente el mejor lugar que hemos disfrutado en Manuel Antonio, en todo momento nos sentimos como en casa, con toda seguridad que volveremos a visitarlo.

What a wonderful time we had at the Jungle Villa! We saw more wildlife there than any other place we visited. Ad was a very good host. it was so exciting to hear the jungle at night time. Accommodations were pleasing. We originally booked just 2 days there, we liked it so much we booked 2 more days!

Beautiful jungle villa! We really enjoyed our short time there. Be ready for the jungle! Air conditioning by request

Great view, lots of space to hangout, quiet, family friendly, and great hosts! Would definitely recommend this place!

Un super endroit, très près du parc, avec une très belle vue sur la mer et sur la jungle. Nous n'y sommes resté qu'une nuit et nous avons vue des capucins, des singes hurleurs, des ratons-laveurs et des agoutis, tout ça sans quitter la terrasse. Le logement était très spacieux et agréable aves une grande salle de bain. La cuisine est à disposition et propre avec tout le nécessaire. La piscine comprend trois bassins d'où l'on peut observer les animaux. Ad est très avenant et agréable. C'est vraiment un endroit à recommander.

My stay at the Jungle Villa was a highlight during my trip to Costa Rica. The Villa is set back from the main street, overlooking the valley to the ocean. When I first arrived, I took a dip in the three tiered pools while howler monkeys played in the trees above. Later, I invited new found friends to join me in preparing a feast in the fully equipped kitchen. We ate and drank beers late into the evening. The caretaker didn't have any issues with them staying for dinner, as long as they didn't stay for the night. The place was clean and comfortable. They let me safekeep my belongings at the villa while I went surfing the next day. There were 5 available rooms, but I was the only guest there. There was good coffee in the morning I would highly recommend a visit.

Really great location I feel like you leave in the middle of the Jungle beautiful view fun pool close to everything the owner will give you lots of help and information about the great activities around the place

We had the pools to ourselves, walking distance everywhere, the groundskeeper suggested the perfect places to go which was Selinas or down in Quepos. Just make sure to put you put your belongings hidden when in Quepos. There is a couple of knuckleheads in downtown who tried opening our car because our valuables where in sight so beware but guaranteed this place is very secure.

Es la segunda vez que reservo con Sonia y en ambas he disfrutado la estadía, es muy lindo el lugar. Sonia es una persona comprometida, amable y servicial. 100% recomendado.

El lugar esta super bien. Se encuentra muy bien ubicado con un supermercado y farmacia cercanos. El lugar es limpio y sencillo, se nos acabo el gas de la cocina y en 10 minutos nos trajeron un nuevo. Una experiencia muy buena!

Muy recomendado el lugar, seguro con buen parqueo y cómodo para viajes en grupo

Es un departamento cómodo, fácilmente accesible con estacionamiento incluido así como cocina integral y servicio wifi. Hay un supermercado y cajeros enfrente, así como buenos restaurantes accesibles a pie. Debido a que está sobre la avenida principal, se escucha el tránsito vehicular. No es grave pero para personas sensibles pudiera ser molesto. A las playas se puede llegar en transporte público o en carro. No nos hemos atrevido a caminar porque el regreso es pura cuesta arriba, pero a la playa se puede llegar directo con el carro y allá rentar sillas y sombrillas, lo cual es muy cómodo.

¡Una excelente elección!, el lugar es muy lindo y céntrico, está a unos metros de la entrada al Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio y la playa, una pequeña plaza justo enfrente con supermarket y algunas sodas a un lado para poder almorzar. No pude conocer personalmente a Sonia, pero estuvo muy al pendiente de nuestra estadía todo el tiempo, Andrey el recepcionista del hostal fue muy amable. Llegamos más tarde de lo previsto y se tomó la molestia de marcarme a mi celular para verificar que todo estuviera bien. Fue aunque corta, una excelente estadía, sin duda volvería. Gracias por todo :)

Casa muy bien situada para acceder al Parque de Manuel Antonio. Situada enfrente de un supermercado y un cajero. Cómoda para ir con niños.

TOdo super bien. Muchas gracias.

Excelente, la casa está cerca de la playa, con un súper mercado al frente, con todo lo necesario para estar unos días en la playa. La atención también fue buena y rápida.

Seguro, buena ubicación, bonita vista... lo recomiendo

What a slice of heaven! The apartment is located in a block of private apartments with a south-facing, panoramic view of the Pacific ocean. Mornings are easily spent relaxing in the living space, watching monkeys play in the treetops of the jungle and the waves roll in. The apartment is clean and secure, and host Kevin is attentive and welcoming. There is a restaurant in the next building over, called Agua Azul, but Kevin kindly provides some privacy curtains in the line of sight and the noise level never gets out of hand. Would even recommend taking the short walk over to Agua Azul for their lovely atmosphere and great food. If we are ever in Manuel Antonio again, we would absolutely look to book this apartment for a second visit - what a great place!

Spectacular place! From the view to the location, this place cannot be beat. Waking up to misty morning views of the jungle and the ocean made this place unforgettable. Also, the bedroom was comfortable and spacious, the bathroom was newly remodeled and the spacious sitting was a great place to land after a long day of sightseeing. Such a great find!

Kevin's place is fantastic, the view is breathtaking and you can't get tired of it. Communication with Kevin was easy and efficient, he provided good recommendation as to where to eat! The place was perfect for my wife and I. Thanks again Kevin!

This place is unreal. Stunning views, very clean, excellent location close to restaurants, shops and other amenities. On top of that is Kevin's exceptional hospitality. From booking to check out, Kevin was a superb host - very responsive and he even reached out during our stay to make sure we had everything we need. If you choose to stay here, definitely take a hike down to the beach via the dirt road. There are directions in the description. We saw two sloths, monkeys and lizards without even entering the National Park. Highly recommended.

The view is amazing! Close to restaurants, grocery, and beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing apartment, beautiful a breathtaking views, clean and comfortable. Bedroom and shower were wonderful, with great corner lounge and mini kitchen. Perfect for a drink watching the sunset. 2.5km from the national park, hot but walkable of there's a bus stop outside. Right next to some incredible restaurants and supermarket and ATM. Kevin was a great and very helpful host! Thoroughly recommend!

Central location in Manuel Antonio with a beautiful birds eye view of the ocean. Agua azul is a great restaurant right next door and there are multiple restaurants and nightlife spots within walking distance. 5 minute drive to the beach and 10 minute drive to Manuel Antonio national park. Kevin was great and provided a lot of helpful info. Would def stay here again

My girlfriend and I just stayed here. We had a great time, the place was quiet and beautiful with amazing views. We had monkeys right outside and on our balcony. We took advantage of the kitchen. The service was very helpful and helped book our tour to the waterfall via horseback. Place was very clean, did have the occasional bugs didn't bother us though. Air conditioning was very useful. Would recommend to anyone and everyone!

Great place and value for the money. Beautiful view, monkeys on the deck daily. Close to cheap local bus, restaurants, shops, ATMs, and much more. Awesome huge deck right in the jungle. Dining for 6 on the deck, hammock, sofa, more. Great well equipped kitchen with 2 refrigerators. Wifi works well as does air conditioning. Great pool with sunset views. Enjoy!

The reservation was canceled 106 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We had a wonderful stay here at this jungle studio! We couldn't have asked for more. We had a natural alarm clock from the Mantled Howler Monkeys each morning. And throughout the day we had visits from white faced and squirrel monkeys on the deck. The location was awesome! We could walk to many restaurants and for those too far away, the bus stop was just a 2 minute walk, or you can stop a cab from right outside the gate. We will be returning next December to enjoy more adventures!! Pura Vida!!!

The pictures of this "Jungle Studio" are true to the actual accommodations. It was charming with a lovely view of the Pacific and the jungle surrounded the outdoor living space. Loved the monkeys in the trees and the beautiful pool area. Clean & well appointed. We highly recommend this property and the attached Villa Nicolas.

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for our first visit to Costa Rica. The place was fantastic! Not only were the views breathtaking, the location was perfect and the villa was nicely stocked with everything you would need. We spent a lot of time out on the porch, enjoying the hammock, and the monkey visitors! We saw monkeys every day of our visit! Thank you for sharing your wonderful property with us!

The Jungle Studio offers everything needed - and the most convincing part: Toucans, Scarlet Macaw and all the types of monkeys as well as Jesus Lizards greet you daily on your veranda / terrace! The studio offers a great size bathroom with perfect water flow in lavabo and shower, excellent equipped kitchen with hugh fridge and all the appliances needed and of course - the great terrace with all the animals the country offers. If back in Manuel Antonio, then definitely at Sheryl's place, Thank you Sheryl!

Very nice stay apartment is connected to a hotel....

Rebecca could not have been any nicer or more welcoming to us. It was an absolute pleasure staying there and meeting her. Water, fruit, beer, and coffee waiting for us. Plenty of towels available, chairs, beach umbrella. She has a nice guidebook prepared for guests noting the best places for all the essentials (e.g., beaches, groceries, ATMs, restaurants, etc). I was in need of some new shoes and she pointed me to a perfect place to get new shoes without breaking the bank. Three of us stayed there comfortably. Keep in mind that the house is open-air (screened of course), so you will hear wildlife, road noises, and you are subject to the weather/temperature. If you are a light-sleeper, a sleep aid does wonders. I definitely recommend going down the road and making a left on the dirt road (4x4 vehicle a must) to go to the beach where you can drive onto it. Bring the cooler with food and drinks!

Everything in the housing was as described and the location was great to Manuel Antonio. We also ate at the local cafe Emilio's a few times given how great the view and food was (a bit pricey though) but get the pina colada :) Rebecca, communicated with us the entire time if we needed anything. I like to feel we got lucky as we were able to see an entire family of squirrel monkey's in the front porch/terrace of the house in the morning which just made the place even more majestic. That alone is worth the stay! ;)

Rebecca was an extremely gracious host and Casa Kaylen was perfect. Breezy and cool, plenty of space, close to everything we needed for the trip and each beach. Even the futon couch was comfortable. We used the local buses or walked almost everywhere we went. Right from the beginning Rebecca went above and beyond, helping us make travel arrangements with the buses and she was very flexible with our arrival and departure. She even had a bowl of delicious fruit, water, coffee and other necessities - far more than I ever expected. She was very welcoming and attentive. Thank you again Rebecca for sharing your slice of paradise!

Casa Kaylen was perfect for celebrating my 30th. It was me and two girlfriends and it was great. We had monkeys everyday on the patio and loved the sunsets. I was worried at first about no AC but Rebecca had plenty of fans so I slept great. The house is across the street from a bar but with the fans on you couldn't hear anything! Didn't bother us at all. The house had everything we needed including plenty of towels. It is a hilly area so honestly was so happy to have a rental car especially for the beach, we almost didn't get one. We went to the less crowded part of the close beach, playa Espadilla, same as the public beach near the entrance to the Manuel Antonio reserve just turn right out the drive way, down a kinda sketchy dirt road but you can drive your car right on the beach 4X4 only of course. We loved Emilio's, especially for dessert and breakfast. The house was walking distance to restaurants and a small grocery store which was nice. Also check out the Sanchos taqueria, Amazing fish tacos! The security was great too. Never had to worry about anything. Thanks again Rebecca!! Highly recommend this spot

Nice place. Convenient location. TV would be nice.

This place is incredible!!! We stayed here after a very adventurous week in La Fortuna and this was the perfect place to unwind and relax! Our host Rebecca is great! We had flown into Quepos Airport and Rebecca had arranged for a taxi to pick us up and drive us to her property. Once we arrived, Rebecca was waiting for us at the driveway where she greeted us and gave us a thorough rundown of Manuel Antonio such as how to get around, what to do and where to go. The property looks just like the photos. It's beautiful with incredible views. The property is located on a hill, but it's an extremely short walk up to restaurants, grocery stores, bus stops and to secluded beaches. As other reviews had mentioned, there is no AC, BUT!, that is not a problem. There is literally a fan in every corner of this house and it actually gets pretty chilly with all the fans going. One of our favorite things about this house is the full kitchen stocked with tons of utensils and dishes! We cooked our own food, Costa Rican Casado dishes, most nights since the grocery store is a short 5 minute walk up the street and the restaurants in the area can get pretty costly. If you're staying in Manuel Antonio and want a place with an ocean view, wildlife, immersed in a jungle and steps away from everything......This is the PERFECT spot!

We had an amazing time in Manuel Antonio! Rebecca's house was absolutely perfect. It's located in a super convenient location; we walked to dinner most nights, and anything you can't walk to you can easily bus to. There is a market and ATM machine on the corner, a short 4 minute walk from the house. We found this extremely helpful! I was slightly nervous when I read there was no AC, but as mentioned in every other review, it really doesn't matter. We were perfectly comfortable with the fans and the cross breeze. Rebecca has several fans set up in perfect locations around the house to keep you cool. Rebecca was an amazing host. She's extremely informative and a very sweet person!! You can't go wrong staying in this adorable jungle house. The view is stunning, the location is perfect, and the host is awesome. We will be back!!

Loved my stay in Manuel Antonio! The apartment was perfect. Had everything we needed and the location was really nice and there is a bus that takes you everywhere you need to go between MA and quepos. Everything was just so easy and relaxing thanks to Rebecca. Pura Vida!

The place was very beautifull, just the same as in the pictures. The location is good (walking distance to beaches, stores and restaurants + easy use of public transportation). It was difficult to keep bugs out of the appartement though. Also with no a/c the place was extremely hot and humid all the time.

We stayed at Willi and Cecilia's place for three nights and had a wonderful time. They sent us directions beforehand so we were able to find it in the dark with no problems and Katherin was there to meet us to take us up to the house. There are quite a few steps, but the view is great and the house was extremely clean and inviting. We enjoyed having coffee in the morning on the balcony, cooking dinner in the well equipped kitchen, and observing the wildlife around us. Overall we really enjoyed ourselves and recommend this place.

Tres belle maison avec une vue magnifique sur la mer.

Casa Alicia was quite the adventure to find and to get to. Had a difficult time finding location, but once we did the host was standing outside to direct us to our parking spot. We walked up over 100 steps so pack light and hope you're in shape. Once you get in the house, it's worth all the steps. You have such a beautiful view and the sunset is amazing. There is No wifi, no AC in this home... was pretty hot and sticky. All in all, our stay was very relaxing at Casa Alicia. Would definitely recommended, but not for kids, elderly or out of shape people. :)

Cumple con todo lo q ofrece en la pagina. El depto. Bien acondicionado con lo necesario. Y buena ubicacion.

El alojamiento consiste en una villa en un condo situado entre Quepos y Manuel Antonio. La ubicación es buena y tiene parking privado y vigilado. Al apartamento no le falta de nada, y dispone de una cocina bien equipada. Lo encontramos limpio y en perfectas condiciones. No coincidimos con Karen Lee pero nos comunicamos por email en todo momento y no hubo ningún problema.

We stayed 2 nights and had a great stay. The directions to the apartment and the checkin info was all spot on. The kitchen was equipped to cook and eat. The AC and wifi worked well. The location is just 5 minutes by car to Manuel Antonio NP. Everything was clean and as described. This was my 2nd visit to Manuel Antonio and the first stay at Karen's place. I'd definitely return and recommend. Thanks for a great stay, Karen!

Location is key! You are perfectly between Quepos and Manuel Antonio... Right next to a bus station that takes you to either. The falafel place is fabulous (best smoothies) and cafe milagro has live music and was 50% off during our stay. The beach was a 10-15 min walk and gorgeous. We saw monkeys everywhere! The place itself is perfect for 2 people in a safe private neighborhood.

Had a wonderful stay at Karen's condo, everything was super close, 2 min drive to the beach, bars around you, clean and comfortable. All the amenities you need, only might wanna plan to pack a big beach towel or buy one there but we managed fine! Pool was literally 10 feet away, parking space, 5 min drive to the national park. Wifi worked really well and Karen's friend that met us was really helpful. The cafe above the unit had a stunning view and tasty food and drink. The place was also secure and safe with a security guard around the clock. We were very pleased with our stay!!

Karen Lee's condo is truly striking! The space was comfortable and perfectly located and i'm proud to say that my husband and I were in better shape from all of the stairs by the end of our four day stay! Everything we needed was within walking distance and the area guide she provided was extremely helpful. We also loved that we could walk to the beaches every day though we did get some serious exercise coming back up the hill! The air conditioner was great to have at night and the pool was a great bonus amenity. We would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat. Thanks for everything!

The picture doesn't do justice to how lovely the apartment was. It was much larger than expected and provided all the convenience of a home away from home except for a lack of microwave. The pool was large enough to swim lapse. Karen was very helpful while we were there. The restaurant above the complex had the most stunning view and delicious food. After staying at a house in another city in Costa Rica which was more expensive, half the size and not as nice, it was a pleasant surprise. Thank you Karen.

It was very easy to find this listing and I loved how close it was to EVERYTHING! Just a 30 minute walk to the beach, plus lots of restaurants and nearby things to do. Air conditioning in one of the rooms was a plus. Karen was great with communication and very informative with all needs. Felt safe traveling alone and staying here. Great place to stay for a few nights!

Emzo was an excellent host. He was such a pleasure to work with and was willing to help however he could. We even gave him some money to pick us up some fresh fish from the market (he offered to pick it up for us) which was INCREDIBLE. He even gave us a ride to our next place! (For a small fee) Emzo's place worked really well for us. We definitely felt that his place was more cozy and more comfortable in person than it was in pictures. We were there with our 18-month old and his place worked well for everything we needed for her. There is a market and a couple restaurants just a bit up the street and plenty more restaurants walking distance from his place. We usually took the bus to the beach which was crazy easy and super cheap, and a gorgeous drive. If you're looking for a legit, local, manual Antonio experience, I definitely recommend his place.

Clean, simple home with basic kitchen and in an awesome location. There is a basic store and a good restaurant a few minutes from the door, and 10 minute walk to stores, restaurants, bars and the bus stop between Quepos and Manuel Antonio that runs every 20 minutes! Although, the gas for the stove was too unstable for me to comfortably use, i figured out how to cook with the rice cooker, and made a delicious smoothie with the complimentary pineapple and bananas! I'm sure Emzo would have come with a solution had I mentioned the stove, but we were fine with the rice cooker. Emzo was in great communication with us from before our arrival, he even met us up the street from the home when we had trouble finding it. He is a great host, and gave us many great tips upon arrival. He lives upstairs with his wife and two kids, but gave us our privacy and are sometimes there if needed... like the time I locked us both out of the house! Would recommend!

It was a cute little place, typical living space, kitchen was well-stocked. Felt secure and comfortable when there. Emzo responded to anything we needed quickly and gave us good tips on places to see.

Emzo was very helpful in sorting anything we needed. He gave us a tour of the town and restaurant recommendations. Nice apartment and quiet location

Emzo is amazing- he helped schedule two great trips (one zip lining and one straight to Manuel Antonio with a guide). He gave us great deals and his place is beautiful- it gets a bit warm but he has extra fans and AC in one of the rooms! Ask him about where to eat- he suggested Ronny's place and it was perfect

The location is great and secure. Locked gate ensured safety. Everything you need is provided: refrigerator,blender , stove,dishes and even body soap and shampoo with conditioner. The air conditioning worked great in the room and the WiFi worked great. We did not get a chance to look out for the toucans but we left early to visit the national park. Hope you have a chance to see them :)

Emzo was a great host, very friendly and quick to respond. Emzo is also very knowledgeable about activities and tours. I suggest talking to him before booking your activities. His place is very roomy and safe. The location is very close to Manuel Antonio and Playa Espadilla, just a few minutes driving. It was a great time at Emzo's place and the surrounding area.

Emzo has a two floor house and this bnb is the first floor. He lives with his family on the upper floor. It is right in the middle of quepos and manuel antonio. There is a bus stop if you walk like 500 m where you can catch bus to manuel antonio park or quepos. If you are on a budget and just need a place to crash this is good. The kitchen area is good and has all the utensils to cook basic stuff.
