I stayed here with my family that includes two toddlers and we absolutely loved it. It’s so kid friendly. They even had toys for them and plenty of towels and pool and beach toys. Beautiful house and location. We saw animals including monkeys and macaws. And met a friendly dog that hung out with us by the pool. I would absolutely return.

Paradise! I knew from the pictures that I was going to enjoy myself immensely, being surrounded by the jungle, tropical plants and the thrum of insects at night. It was everything I had hoped for and more. Walking in the immediate vicinity was a treat and we saw Scarlet macaws, Capuchin monkeys, sloth and agouti, as well as tons of birds, butterflies and other insects. A highlight was the lovely scenery abounding through all of the sliding doors and a restful ambiance with a morning yoga class on the deck in the spectacularly peaceful setting. Manuel Antonio's hive of restaurants and shops is right up the hill and there are loads of places to eat, frolic in the waves, enjoy drinks at sunset and just overall experience Pura Vida!

Our second stay at Macaw’s Nest did not disappoint. As lovely as our last trip, a gem for families.

Beautiful, comfortable and clean home! Very private and secure with private gated access and a safe in the master bedroom. We loved the pool and exploring the property’s hiking trails. The owners and concierge were very responsive and helpful. Manuel Antonio is a fantastic town with many activities, shopping and great restaurants.

We had a great stay! The house is beautiful, nice cool AC, we saw lots of monkeys off the back deck, spotted macaws a few times, and even saw a toucan. Great location, Max 10 minute drive to anything around town. Lots of great restaurants nearby. Responsive help host and concierge. We especially enjoyed the holler monkey wake up Calls!

What a beautiful home, perfectly situated in an absolutely stunning location. We had the perfect balance of peace and adventure during our stay. We enjoyed swimming, cooking, and experiencing an incredible amount of wildlife—something you simply wouldn't get at a hotel. The host and concierge were exceptionally helpful, providing great local recommendations for beaches, restaurants, healthcare, and other essentials, which made our stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this home to anyone looking for an authentic getaway that's off the beaten path while still feeling completely safe, comfortable, and relaxed. We would gladly stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay!!! The home itself is open and beautiful. Nice big rooms and bathrooms. The pool and sitting area were used daily and we enjoyed seeing all the monkeys. The only issue we had was a full day with zero power. This made working a bit difficult and a few meetings were missed. It did start to get pretty hot in the house and was about to check in to a hotel and then it magically came back. We would def come back!! The location was nice and secluded but 10 minutes to everything. Thank you

The Jungle Treehouse was fully equipped with all of the things we needed from shampoo, conditioner, detergent, bug repellent, beach towels, chairs, etc. Their instructions were amazingly detailed with photos, which made for checking in and finding things super easy. Johannes was great and super quick to respond with any questions or needs! I loved that some of the things we booked had pickups and dropoffs included. Also, it was helpful to have all of the detailed recommendations and phone numbers to plan adventures and communicate with the necessary parties. The private pool was beautiful and great to have available! My daughter and I had a wonderful time and are so thankful for the level of thoughtfulness that was put into everything! I would highly recommend Shamir and Diana and would book with them again. The only suggestion I can think of was it would be nice to have a full length mirror somewhere.

The property is beautiful and is exactly as described though it may even be larger than it appears in the pictures. It is clear the hosts put a lot of effort into the home and into making sure guests enjoy the home and the surrounding area. Unfortunately some maintenance issues out of the host’s control came up and we did not get to stay the full time - but the hosts were extremely responsive and we would recommend their place without reservation. Additionally, we visited several restaurants they recommended and also booked tours with guides recommended - and really loved everything. We had a great week in Manuel Antonio and nearby cities and can’t wait to visit again.

We booked this stay based on the reviews of seeing wildlife around the house & it didn’t disappoint. The jungle surroundings, wraparound porch, and pool deck were perfect for observing. We followed several of the guidebook suggestions for dining in Quepos & my husband enjoyed surfing lessons with the recommended instructor. Would definitely return!

Macaws Nest exceeded our expectations! The wildlife and foliage were incredible! We saw so many monkeys and macaws and birds and lizards - everyday was something new! The Macaws Nest book that Shamir put together made our stay that much more enjoyable! The recommendations were incredible - right down to the in home massage - the farmers market - hour to ask for produce - EVERYTHING! All of the details and directions just added to our stay! The house had everything we could have asked for. The concierge Johannes was also wonderful and super responsive! We would highly recommend Shamirs house! It was an incredible vacation!

The Jungle Tree House was a great place for us to unwind and relax. We loved the pool, very responsive and helpful communication, the A/C works great! Surrounded by dense, beautiful vegetation. There were squirrel monkeys playing on the roof one day for almost an hour!

We loved The Jungle Tree House! It's really a dreamy space, secluded, and surrounded by so much nature!! Everyday, we were like wildlife explorers with our binoculars and camera's watching the Agouti, Capuchin Monkeys, Squirrel Monkeys, and Macaws flying overhead. We even saw a sloth on the road to the house. You are right in between the little town of Quepos and Manual Antonio with so many options for restaurants and great beaches. Highly recommend!
