10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 20 reviews
"Most amazing place we’ve ever stayed. View is breathtaking. Exactly what we were hoping for, jungle stay out of the city. Drive is as others describe, very steep and rough. You need four wheel drive. We got the chef service with Rambo and made the stay so much easier as the grocery store is not super close. Would stay again. We had 4 adults and 4 kids with plenty of room. all were amazed with the place."

Casa Cristal, Great Ocean Views, Walk to the Beach
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 5 reviews
"My 3 siblings with our spouses spent 8 days at Casa Cristal and the Villa made a great vacation outstanding. The initial entry shows a magnificent view of the Pacific from Manuel Antonio almost to Quepos. The spacious 4/5 bedrooms were more than enough for our 8 people and the kitchen/living and upstairs grill area provided space for all of us to spread out. While the facilities were great, what really made our stay was the people. The maid took care of all the housekeeping including washing all...

"Our family of 5 adults thoroughly enjoyed our stay at beautiful Villa Tortuga! Although we were gone most of the day, we enjoyed coming home and hanging out by the pool together, enjoying the gorgeous views of Manuel Antonito, while chef Ricardo and his wife Alba prepared dinner. After our successful fishing day, Ricardo prepared the fresh tuna into tasty appetizers and dinner for 2 nights. Food was outstanding, Ricardo and Alba so kind, and such a treat to have meals prepared and the kitchen...

Casa Tropical - Gardens & Wildlife @ Manuel Antonio's Hill Top Hidden Paradise
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 93 reviews
"Overall, this vacation home was enjoyable, nestled within the rainforest where we saw macaws, toucans, many other birds, squirrel monkeys, capuchin monkeys, and howler monkeys from the top deck. The home has all the necessities for a week stay, and the location is great for visiting Manuel Antonio park and beaches. The main downside was the main floor had no air conditioning, so this part of this house (kitchen, dining room, living room) was uncomfortable. Some tall tower fans would really help....

Shana by the Beach Manuel Antonio
4.5 star property
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, 1,002 reviews
"The views from Shana by the Beach were stunning, and the beach adjacent to the hotel, Playa Biesanz, was lovey and not overly crowded. The winding, narrow road leading to the hotel is certainly not for the faint of heart, and we were never brave enough to venture out after dark because of it. Additionally, the hill on which Shana by the Beach property sits is very steep, making walking it on foot challenging for the able-bodied and I would think impossible for those needing accessible...
