4BR villa in Manuel Antonio

Home in Manuel Antonio

Brought my kids and my grand kids here. The house was amazing! Looks the same as the pictures. Lots of monkeys, birds and other wildlife coming through daily. Susan the concierge was top notch. She helped us out with an everything from local restaurants, to helping us open safes. Bedrooms were nice and chilly and the main rooms were very inviting. The maid was outstanding and the chefs that were scheduled for us were outstanding. I recommend this house 100%. Scott’s on top of his game with this one! Thanks for the incredible time and memories made!

Place was clean and as described. About a 5-10 min drive into town with restaurants and stores.

Beautiful home! Felt very private, and we thoroughly enjoyed the jungle (monkeys, toucans, macaws, butterflies) as we relaxed in the large pool. Do yourself a favor and at least book one night with a meal provided by the private chef!

This place is beyond amazing! The house was immaculate. We were able to see all kinds of animals including monkeys and birds right from the balcony. Susan was so helpful and on top of everything. She helped us with all the excursions and her communication was great. Andrea was an amazing housekeeper and so friendly. Everything was so clean!

This property is amazing! Very relaxing! We used the kitchen, jacuzzi, pool, game room and the concierge was very helpful in booking certain activities.

We stayed for a week with three couples. The home itself is large, beautiful, and backs directly to the national forest, which was absolutely amazing. During our stay we saw monkeys and iguanas right from the property. One of our favorite parts of the home was the large upstairs balcony table where we spent a lot of time eating meals, playing games, and relaxing together. The housekeeping service included laundry service, which was a huge bonus and appreciated. Our tours were arranged through the property (Susan) and she did an excellent job. That said, Manuel Antonio is extremely hot and humid, and while the bedrooms have AC, the main living spaces do not, so we needed to be outdoors for all eating and socializing which was very warm and with many bugs. The home is not walkable for most people with the narrow, steep and busy roads. We had some maintenance and communication issues, Overall, the wildlife, jungle setting, beautiful views and time spent with friends was great.

The place was exactly like the photos and had lots of great features. Family loved the pool, tv room downstairs, upstairs outdoor patio and the pool table! I will say the place does feel like a true nature experience! lol Only the bedrooms have ac which is something to note. The maid was really awesome and was definitely not expecting such great hospitality from her. She cleaned and reset the house every day of our stay which was really awesome after long days of tours/excursions! She even washed our clothes and really made us feel welcome. I would give her 1000 stars if I could!! Susan was great and very helpful with information, recommendations and she even helped us find last minute transportation for a tour! This place and town was great my family had a lovely time here

What an amazing property! One of the best places we've ever booked on AirBnB. We were immediately drawn by the pool area and outdoor patio and they did not disappoint. We enjoyed having breakfast and dinner on the patio every day. They also included cleaning every day, which we really enjoyed because we don't normally get that at AirBnBs. It was a wonderful getaway staying in the middle of the jungle. We saw many animals from the house, including monkeys, bats, frogs, lizards and birds. It was only our family of 4 but we would love to come back with a bigger group. Highly recommend!

Our stay was phenomenal!! We had a great stay! Susan was so helpful and has wonderful recommendations! The cleaning and  maid service allowed for us to truly relax and enjoy our time.

The only thing is about, check out: by ABNB is always at 11 am and in this case one hour before. It provides less time to get a breakfast for 8 people with enough time.

Thank you for your feedback. As noted in our listing and pre-arrival information, our checkout time is 10:00 AM, not 11:00 AM. We make this clearly visible so guests can plan accordingly prior to booking. Due to the large size of the home, this schedule is necessary to allow our team enough time to thoroughly clean and prepare the property to a high standard for incoming guests. We appreciate your understanding and encourage future guests to review the listing details carefully to ensure the home is a good fit for their needs.

Everything was perfect!! The location is great with a great view. The pool and jacuzzi were so relaxing. Our concierge Susan made it seamless! And Andrea in charge of housekeeping made it pristine! It was a relaxing vacation in a great location.

Amazing house, clean and beautiful. Very attentive host and concierge.

Beautiful home and great view and swimming pool. We’d would like to come back.

Amazing place, probably nicest Airbnb that we’ve stayed in. The area was so beautiful and the view from the pool was amazing. Our laundry was done for us, which was helpful after a long trip. Would def come back

Amazing place, the whole family was satisfied. We loved the nature and we saw monkeys from the terrace.

Lugar increíble toda la familia quedó satisfecha. La naturaleza nos encantó y veíamos monos desde la terraza.

This was a fantastic stay! Gorgeous home, extremely helpful hosts, and great location nearby the beach and restaurants. The place was very well taken care of by staff the entire stay. Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with privacy surrounded by wildlife!

Overall, our experience was quite good (and we were pre-warned about the next door construction but given a large discount which made it quite a good deal). The main issue was that either walking or trying to get a taxi/uber was very difficult due to the extremely steep and often slippery road leading to the house. Some taxis wouldn't go there at all. Also, if you go out at night, there are no street lights making it somewhat dangerous in terms of slipping and falling. The house itself was very nice and the property management company was one of the best ... great help finding and arranging trips, and the maid was phenomenal. Each bedroom had their own mini-split a/c and overhead fan while the rest of the house just used fans. A few suggestions: 1. Fix or replace the stove ... have to use a lighter to get any of the burners to start which could be dangerous for some people 2. Include better instructions on how to use the showers 3. Replace all of the billiard cues / sticks

Thank you so much for your stay — we’re glad you enjoyed your time with us and appreciated the generous construction discount! Costa Rica’s terrain is naturally diverse and mountainous, so hills and inclines are a normal part of the jungle environment that makes this region so special. In all the years we’ve owned the home, we’ve never had a taxi refuse to come to the property. Taxis enter the community daily, so it’s likely this was an isolated situation with a particular driver. Our concierge also spoke with you multiple times during your stay, and this concern was never mentioned — she would have been more than happy to assist right away. As for lighting, there are no street lights in the jungle, but we provide multiple flashlights in the home for guest use. Lighting the gas stove with an extended lighter is both normal and safe, and it’s a very common practice throughout Costa Rica. Finally, we are currently sourcing replacement pool cues. Items like these can take a bit more time to obtain here, as they aren’t always readily available, but we are working on it. Thanks again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back in the future!

This place was absolutely wonderful—peaceful, beautiful, and full of charm. We felt so welcomed by our host and truly enjoyed every moment of our stay. Highly recommend!

Recently stayed here for a pre wedding celebration with our bridal party and it was so fun! Susan the concierge was very helpful with planning things and flexible with our check in time! The house was awesome and so was the pool! We had a great time!!

This was exactly as the pictures. The house is huge, lots spaces to sit and enjoy a conversation. Open kitchen and the pool and jacuzzi were amazing. Susan, the local host, was always responsive and nice. We got lots of recommendations from Scott as well.

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Tranquilidad! Susan was extremely helpful with booking our tours and answering our questions. She even offered to run to the grocery store for us after traffic added several hours to our arrival! Andrea was so friendly and sweet and we really appreciated everything she did for us! We didn’t see many animals from the house, but didn’t mind because it was still so beautiful. The construction across the street started early, but it didn’t bother us at all. We would definitely stay here again!

100% recommended. Beautiful location with plenty of privacy, perfect for families and friends. The location is also wonderful. Scott always attentive to any kind of needs.. Thanks Scott ☺️!!!

Beautiful home and very accommodating hosts! Definitely will be back one day.

Beautiful house, would definitely recommend arriving during daylight hours and making sure you have a capable vehicle. Very steep and sharp turns for roads, tucked away in the foliage.

We are thrilled you loved Casa Tranquilidad!  It is a jungle home and the terrain in Costa Rica is very hilly, just part of the experience!  The road is paved and a regular car will do just fine, just nothing low lying like a sports car.  If its your first time in CR, we do recommend getting private transportation to the home.  Driving in CR is very different than home  =)

This place is absolutely amazing. The private pool facing the forest allowed us to see tons of wildlife. You have access to a concierge, Susan, who helped arrange activities for us before we got there, including a private chef. She was so responsive while we were there and even helped rearrange and book other activities. We could not be happier with our stay!! Pura vida!!  No complaints.

stunning house, amazing pool in beautiful surroundings, you couldnt ask for more nature, monkeys toucans, iguanas, frogs, huimmingbirds, special treat are the bats nesting on the canopy outside one of the downstairs bedrooms just for info the construction next door (ending Nov25) - this isnt awful but it is there, started at around 7am and really affected one of the bedrooms at the road side. its not hugely disturbing we found, but maybe if you planned to lounge at the pool 12 hrs a day it would get on your nerves, usually over by 2-3pm Bedroom layout better for an older family/friends. the downstairs rooms feel a bit isolated for young kids Staff -all lovely, but there is a cleaner in daily, gardner and pool tech etc, not an issue for some, but a bit less private than we usually go for. my only other bugbear is documentation - we use airbnb a lot, and hate getting 3rd party rental contracts/disclaimers etc on top.

So glad you enjoyed Casa Tranquilidad and all the animals and nature! We are doing our very best proactively communicating with all guests about the construction project behind Casa Tranquilidad so there should be no surprises. My family and I are actually staying in Casa Tranquilidad from Aug 16-27 and I can honestly say the noise has not been that bad. We are told that the project should be over in November, 2025. A jungle house requires a lot more upkeep than a normal home in the US. Because of the open air, jungle environment it takes daily cleaning both inside and out otherwise the jungle will take over and the home would not be in the pristine condition it is. Pool maintenance is required 2-3 times per week to keep the pool clean and gardeners also come twice per week to maintain the grounds. As for the third party rental agreement, we do communicate that this is required of all guest both in the House Rules as well as in the booking process. This is required to help eliminate fraudulent bookings which most guest understand. Again, thanks for choosing us and we are thrilled you enjoyed the home!

For a vacation of a lifetime book this beautiful home  - it's OUTSTANDING. The whole experience is 5 star. The home is incredible - the wildlife you see is unbelievable  - monkeys Toucans huge butterflies Humming birds the list is endless. Andrea the wonderful housekeeper keeps the house immaculate, the gardener picked us fruit and the maintenance is first class. The BEST concierge we have ever had Susan was like having a PA and made our vacation seamless. Scott was very welcoming (your house is off the chart) and we had everything provided to make this a holiday of a lifetime. If you visit the National Park get a guide  -  or you will see very little they have telescopes that makes the experience. Chef Renzo and Roberto - Michelin * level. Best meal of our vacation - we could not thank them enough  - every dish was melt in your mouth delicious. Any food left in the fridge is donated (this filled my heart) This house captures Costa Rica's Pura Vida 100%.  Thank you to the whole team .

Incredible experience to wake up to monkeys, a toucan, and many other sights and sounds of the jungle. The home is beautiful and comfortable and the hostess was so helpful.

We absolutely loved our stay here! Very large house that comfortably fit our group! We really enjoyed the pool and saw tons of wildlife in the trees surrounding the house including monkeys, toucans, and other beautiful birds. Susan was helpful arranging excursions and private services to the house and the house cleaner including laundry services which was an amazing perk. I highly recommend this house for anyone looking to visit Manuel Antonio!

Great! Amazing villa and responsive host! Recommended ++

Super ! Villa incroyable et hôte réactif ! Je recommande ++

This is probably the finest AirBnb we have ever stayed at. The building is so spacious with very good facilities. sitting in the pool whilst watching the wildlife will be a cherished memory. The large pool with infinity effect is deep enough to swim but can be waded into by non swimmer. It is not only private but not overlooked..The small pool with jets on the first floor is great for sitting in if there is a rain shower. The kitchen is well equipped and outdoor grill is a bonus. The double glazing with bug screens is well implemented. All the bedrooms are a good size and the showers hot and reasonable power. From the property we saw iguanas, squirrel monkeys, frogs , birds , parrots, howler monkeys and a toucan. Spacious bedrooms and lovely bathrooms. Handy binoculars. The maid was very sweet Not far from the beach, Manuel Antonio park (don't need a guide, look where other guides are looking ). The nearest restaurant is very nice and reasonable.

As a group of 8 adults, we had everything we needed and more. We saw more wildlife at the rental than we did on excursions. On our next stay, we may not go anywhere! The chef, Roberto, was excellent and I highly recommend him for cooking for most of your stay. Susan, the concierge was amazing and so helpful with anything you want to do. The maid service was great and they kept everything clean throughout our trip. We will be back!

This house was spacious and beautiful, the pool was a perfect oasis, and there were howler monkeys and birds in the surrounding trees. We had a wonderful time!

We spent three nights at Scott’s jungle paradise and loved every moment. It’s perfectly located—close to the city, yet surrounded by nature, giving you that peaceful jungle vibe. Each night, we fell asleep to the sounds of the treetops, which was magical. The pool layout is stunning and creates the perfect place to relax. Every room felt warm, welcoming, and like home. Scott has created something truly special here. We’re already looking forward to coming back and can’t recommend it enough!

Loved this beautiful home. Susan was very helpful with recommendations for the area. We loved hiring the private chef to come make dinner Chef Renzo was amazing and by far our best meal in the area. The pool was amazing andbwe loves watching the monkeys each evening. Having the housekeeper come in to tidy up everyday was a huge bonus!

This place is heaven on earth!!  We stayed here a few years ago and loved it.  As a family we often talk about how amazing this place is.  We can’t wait for our next trip!

The location was very peaceful and every morning we had coffee and watched the monkeys jumping around from tree to tree and Macaw parrots landing in the trees right in front of the balcony. Susan, our concierge was really helpful in setting up our transportation to and from the airport, setting up tours and anything else we needed. Friendly housekeeper came every day and we had a Chef come in twice and the food was fabulous! We decided to rent a car for the week and felt that was a necessity and very convenient. The location really isn’t walkable so the car was nice, though taxis are also available. Great trip and I highly recommend this location!

Beautiful jungle home. Exciting to see monkeys

Beautiful home Pure Vida!! Excellent location and amazing home. Lovely pool, exotic animals in the beautiful trees and flowering bushes.

We stayed here with a group of 10 girls for a work trip and the space was perfect . The jungle is at your back door and the monkeys came every morning for us to watch . Susan the concierge responds quickly and is very knowledgeable and extremely helpful . Andre the maid was sweet and helpful and a joy to have there . We had Renzo the chef for 3 meals and was money well spent , 5 star food and such nice mannered chefs. All in all we can’t wait to bring our families back to experience this as a family .

This place was so amazing, from the communication, to the beautiful surroundings. super clean and loved the privacy. you could definitely hear the wildlife which was terrific. Will be coming back!

This is hands down the BEST Airbnb I have ever stayed at. I booked it for our family of 6 and it was so relaxing and private that we rarely even wanted to leave the house. The pool is wonderful, you are a quick drive to the beach, there are monkeys and deer all around, and the house itself has everything you need. Susan, the house concierge, was beyond helpful and responsive, and had wonderful recommendations. We booked the chef for a few of the days and it was well worth the money, and my kids all loved him and his food! The daily housekeeping was a fabulous addition as well- she even did the laundry! We are already dreaming of coming back.

My whole family including my grandkids enjoyed this beautiful house. Andrea, the daily maid service, and Susan, the concierge added so much to this experience which were included in the overall price. We enjoyed the wild animals that showed up outside like capuchin monkeys, macaw, toucan, beautiful butterflies etc. We felt safe in the house and the excursions recommended by Susan were very appropriate for our large, diverse age group. I would also highly recommend hiring chef services. Renzo and Roberto cooked some great meals for us. It is slightly expensive but worth it to just sit and enjoy your family and friends.

We were 9 adults celebrating my 50th birthday and were utterly delighted with this beautiful home. The upstairs balcony was perfect for shared meals, evening gatherings, and monkey watching. The house is well designed for privacy between the rooms, the many bathrooms were appreciated and the beds were very comfortable. We also made great use of the pool and the game room. It was all perfect. Second, I cannot begin to tell you how vacation-changing it was to have a concierge and a housekeeper. Susan was incredibly helpful. She gave us excellent restaurant recommendations (Baldi’s was our favorite) and not only gave us great advice on tour options but booked everything for us (we did the white water rafting and the night park tour - excellent!, plus multiple in home massages - amazing!) She built our itinerary ahead of time and was always available for questions. Communication was always clear. Andrea’s housekeeping was a lifesaver for a large party. Couldn’t recommend this airbnb more!

The home was INCREDIBLE! The rooms were great, bathrooms for every room. The showers were very nice size. The pool, hot tub and waterfall were something you have to experience for yourself. My family and I loved it! We would absolutely come back to this home. We saw monkeys, toucans, macaws, bats, geckos, hummingbirds plus lot of other tropical birds and animals. The trees, flowers, plants were a dream to wake up to. The host were always available and went above and beyond what we could have asked for. My daughter left her shoes and they came and met us at another location to return them to us. Thank you for a magical stay! You made my daughter’s birthday so special!

We had a great stay in this home. First, what it is and then what it’s not. Susan (concierge) and Andrea (daily housekeeper) made the whole stay so easy, stress free, and relaxing. It was a treat to rent a house and have dishes and laundry done each day! Susan was so helpful while planning our stay and kept us organized, down to providing a daily itinerary. The house and pool are beautiful but a bit of a rustic feel, not luxury. Close to the beach on a map but far from the beach by roads. You must get all the way back out to the main road to get anywhere. It really isn’t walkable so you need a car or we had good luck with taxis too. There really is no view of the ocean, it’s all jungle. We did not see a ton of wildlife like other reviews claimed but we did see a few small brown monkeys one day and heard the howlers a few times but never saw them. The chef dinner at the house was very good! The services from the staff really made our vacation and were 5 star, more than the house itself.

We are thrilled that you enjoyed Casa Tranquilidad and the superb staff!  Yes it is a Jungle home with a small view of the ocean from the large upper balcony (see in pics), as described in the listing.  Most guest will see many animals while at the home but there are times where they may be moving differently.  Another big variable is how often you are actually at the home.  The best time to see animals is at daybreak while many people are still sleeping and then again just before dark.   The home is just over 2 miles from the beach, this can seem a bit further due to the terrain as there are many turns and hills.  You can walk to a small grocery store and a couple restaurants (less than .5 mile) and the "main road" is .68 miles from Casa Tranquilidad.  A car is recommended and taxies are inexpensive and readily available as well.

Beautiful home with many animals and plants surrounding us. Waterfall was so peaceful. Couldn't ask for a better vacation!

Great place to stay for a group! I'd highly recommend it. Only downside we found is lack of AC anywhere in the common areas (AC is only in the bedrooms) and sometimes the showers were very slow. But overall, we had an amazing time and we'd stay here again.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Casa Tranquilidad and we appreciate that you chose us for your time in Manual Antonio. We are very clear in the listing in numerous places that there is AC in the bedrooms only so there should be no surprises there. The rest of the house is open air living with lots of ceiling fans. This is very normal in Costa Rica because of the high cost of electricity.

Casa Tranquilidad was a natural oasis of peace and quiet! The house was beautiful. The view out the back balcony and from the pool looking out at all the foliage was breathtaking! We were there with our cousins and all the kids would play in the pool and downstairs game room all day if we had let them. And then the adults could enjoy themselves upstairs. And trust me when I say, take the recommendation of others before me and GET THE CHEF to do a meal for you. He was amazing. The food was delicious. You just enjoy the whole experience with your family!.

Such a beautiful home. We really enjoyed the pool. We saw monkeys in the trees. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs and 2 downstairs. We had our baby with us and there are 6 different cement staircases that we had to watch out for. The curtains don’t cover the full window in the bedrooms so kids were up early. We thought the location was great and the staff was amazing and beyond helpful. The kitchen was well stocked and we cooked a few meals there.

We had a wonderful time celebrating Spring Break at casa tranquilidad.  From start to finish the staff and service were off the charts.  The chef recommendation was superior to any we have had!! And that says a lot! He even made a beautiful homemade cake for my nieces birthday that blew us away!! The wildlife, the excursion recommendations and every detail of this trip made it one to remember! I highly recommend this property for your next Costa Rica vacay.

We loved our stay in Manuel Antonio!  This house was perfect for us to enjoy family time while surrounded by amazing scenery.   The monkeys entertained us every day while we played in the infinity pool.  We all can’t wait to come back!

We had a beautiful stay at Casa Tranquilidad. We did a 3 generation nature vacation to Costa Rica and Manuel Antonio was our last stop. We stayed for 4 days. The place is perfect for families. The grandchildren 7 and 9 spent most of their time in the pool and Jacuzzi. We saw more wildlife sitting on the porch than at Manuel Antonio Park. Susan the concierge was very kind and helpful. Andrea the housekeeper was very nice and helpful with laundry. We also hired Chef Renzo who cooked for us great dinners. The bedrooms have A/C which is essential as the heat with humidity is sometimes hard to bare. The only thing that was missing is a common room with air condition where we could have gathered. Overall I would recommend to stay at Casa Tranquilidad.

This was such an amazing place. Beautiful! We saw so much wildlife and had plenty of space for the 8 of us. The housekeeper was incredible and we wanted for nothing. The pool is fabulous and we even watched the Super Bowl in realtime downstairs. You do need a four wheel drive to get to the home so don’t skimp on that

Hello Danielle, we are so glad you enjoyed our beautiful home.  The amount of wildlife here is just amazing!  Just for some clarity, you DO NOT need a 4x4 for this home.  Many guest have come and gone with a car or crossover type vehicle.  A 4x4 is not necessary but its is nice to have.  We just dont recommend any low lying type sports car.

We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb. It’s a beautiful property and we loved waking up to all the wildlife! We saw iguanas, two groups of monkeys, many birds, cool insects, small mammals, and more! We used chef services for a few dinners and highly recommend.

This is our second stay at this property and we absolutely love it. The house is beautiful, backyard is full of animals & fruit trees. Personal chef is amazing! House keeper is fantastic, super friendly and accommodating. Close to restaurants and nature parks! Can’t say enough good about this property. We will definitely be back! Thank you! - Amber & James

Casa Tranquilidad is a beautiful, spacious home situated on a lovely piece of property. The pool area is surrounded by gardens and jungle where you get to watch and hear the wildlife. We saw Capuchin and Howler monkeys, deer, hummingbirds, toucans and scarlet macaws. It was truly exciting! Our family of 7 spent Christmas week, including New Years, at Casa Tranquilidad and it was magical. There was definitely enough space and Andrea, the housekeeper, kept the place tidy with fresh towels everyday. All questions and concerns were answered by Susan, the Concierge, in a timely manner. She helped coordinate transfers and excursions. The dinners were prepared by Renzo and Robert and they did an awesome job! The bedrooms have air conditioning which made for a restful sleep, however, the common areas do not. The game room has a lot to offer but we would have utilized it more had it been air conditioned. Other than that it was the best family trip ever!

Great location and fantastic home nestled away in Manual Antonio. Great for groups.

House is very comfortable with great AC in all the bedrooms. Pool is great, but for sure the best part was the concierge helping us with all our booking and questions throughout as well as the private chef. If you can swing it, definitely do it.

Only word to describe this property is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a blessing to find a great host and property like Casa Tranquilidad. Will return back with the family. Lots fun fun and new memories with the family. PRICELESS!! THANK YOU CASA TRANQUILIDAD for your hospitality..

My friends and I absolutely loved our stay in Scott’s beautiful house. It was clean and ready for us when we arrived. We have maid service each morning that left the house and our rooms in top shape. I highly recommend the private chef service that you can schedule as the meal was absolutely phenomenal. We had mahi ceviche and some of the best home made guacamole I’ve ever tasted to start. The Red Snapper we had for dinner was even better, and eating the entire meal on the second floor balcony overlooking the pool and jungle was amazing. We had an absolute blast in Costa Rica and this house was a huge reason why. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful home. Looking forward to going back.

The home and foliage was beautiful, we seen a sloth, raccoon and a monkey in the back yard. Susan is so incredibly informative and helpful. Andrea the housekeeper did an outstanding job! Overall very pleased with the home and our stay.

We had a fantastic time! We saw so many monkeys in the backyard and even a sloth. Andrea the maid and Susan the concierge were lovely and very helpful.

I had my bachelorette weekend at Casa Tranquilidad with 14 girls and it was the best weekend ever! The moment we walked in, everyone was in awe of how beautiful the pool and villa was. It looks even better than the photos. We were able to see tons of wildlife from the house and pool. One morning we were woken up at 5am to a howler monkey screaming & squirrel monkeys jumping around. There’s also a small colony of bats living under a balcony. The concierge Susan was a great help with planning all our activities, transportation and private chef needs. Chef Renzo and his assistant were so friendly and their food was delicious! It was cheaper and easier after a long day of excursions to come home to deliciously prepared food. The house was the perfect amount of space for our large group. We added in the guest house as well. Just to note you have to walk outside to get to the guesthouse from the main house & there is only one bathroom there although it sleeps 6 people. Highly recommend!

House was great! We were able to see lots of wildlife, beautiful greenery surrounding. Susan was very helpful, super quick to respond, highly recommend getting a chef! Food was absolutely amazing! Everyone was so nice, house was very clean, and Andrea did a great job.

We all had a great time. Wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Casa Tranquilidad is a great house in a great location. It is very spacious. Susan was excellent, she was very helpful. We hired Renzo and Roberto to cook for us. I highly recommend them when you have a large group of people.

Beautiful home. Andrea is the absolute best, she cleaned and organized our house daily and was very nice! Susan was very nice as well, she gave us great recommendations and was very accommodating to our needs and times.

The Airbnb was absolutely perfect! We had a great time, and Scott and the concierge were both responsive and helpful. We hired the private chef and had a great experience as well. Would absolutely recommend- the amenities were exactly as expected and we really enjoyed our stay.

This house was amazing. we saw wildlife everyday from monkeys to sloth, anteater and iguanas. Susan was so helpful setting up our transportation and activities. It was so appreciated! Andrea was very nice and kept the house sparkling. I would definitely recommend having the personal chef during your stay. the food and service was amazing!! the chef's were so nice too!! our group had a fantastic trip, highly recommend!!

Our first trip to Costa Rica was spectacular and luxurious thanks to Scott and Susan and the team. The house is luxurious, clean and comfortable. The location is private, yet close to all the restaurants, beaches and activities. From age 8-81 our family enjoyed the house and overall experience. Susan’s recommendations on chef, massage and activities helped make the trip frictionless and memorable. The staff is friendly and reliable - we instantly felt at home.

Traveled to Costa Rica March of 2023 with 2 families (4 adults and 5 teenage girls). From the initial contact, out vacation was great. There was constant communication with Susan our host. She made sure all of our excursions were set and our transportation needs were complete before we arrived. Susan met us at the house when we arrived and gave us a tour and answered any questions we had. She also gave us a day by day itinerary so we didn't miss anything we had planned. We did use the chef service for 3 dinners, and I can't say enough about our awesome Chefs Roberto and Alejandro! They made great dinners and also had a wealth of knowledge of local beaches, restaurants, and attractions we should visit while in Costa Rica. Casa Tranquilidad had plenty of room for our group and exceeded our expectations. Beds were comfortable and was a very clean house. Daily cleaning service is greatly appreciated! Pool was large and very refreshing after a hot day in the sun!

We arrived at Scott’s house earlier than anticipated and Susan was kind to accommodate our entry. The pool and jacuzzi were amazing as were the monkeys traveling back and forth in the trees.  We would just sit in the pool and take in all that surrounded us. Our whole family was with us, three generations.  We were able to take in Manuel Antonio National Park and spend a lot of time at the beach.  We went to the top of the mountain and walked the hanging bridges and stopped into the restaurant for a drink and witnessed the spectacle of the sunset and all of Manuel Antonio.  The restaurants were fabulous and yoga in the early morning was a treat.  One night we had Renzo and Roberto cook us a fabulous meal.  They showed us how to prepare the menu and let us help with the process.  Andrea was very helpful and pleasant and the treat of the week was she did our laundry.  The one downside was that the place was a little tired and musty, however it did not stop us from having an amazing time.

We had an amazing time at Casa Tranquilidad and the stay exceeded our expectations! The house and outdoor spaces were clean, comfortable, and beautiful. The porch was a great space for meals and to watch wildlife outside the property. Susan was very helpful and responsive to all of our needs and the housekeeping services were extremely convenient. I would highly recommend this stay!

We had a great time at Scott’s place. The place was absolutely beautiful. Susan was very helpful and the housekeeper Andrea was a great addition. We loved coming home to a clean house and freshly folded laundry. The pool was was beautiful and we loved watching the monkeys every day from the pool. We booked Chef Renzo for two dinners and and the food was amazing. Highly recommend booking the Chef service for at least one dinner. We hope to be back one day!

We love the house and everything is great, except it's hard to pull into the gate if you have a bigger car. The angle of the gate and the hill made it very tricky.

We are thrilled that you loved the house and enjoyed your stay.  Yes the terrain in the jungle of Costa Rica is very different than at home.  It is a mountainous country but the good news is that we have never not been able to get a vehicle in and out of the driveway and that includes all the big vans that come to pick up our guest for their tours and airport transportation..

Our stay at Casa Tranquilidad has been the best experience I've had in my four times to the area! Not only was the house everything we'd hoped for, but so so much more! Such a peaceful, clean and private property. Much thought and care has gone into making the guests comfortable, not to mention all the extras, like the beautiful decor and furniture. The private chef service with Luis and Roberto was definitely the highlight! We were absolutely spoiled the entire time and both chefs were so communicative and accommodating to our party of seven. Andrea, the housekeeper, was absolutely amazing, efficient and friendly. The daily laundry service was one of our most appreciated amenities!! Susan, our concierge was absolutely, hands down the BEST! She went above and beyond in every way to make sure we had a stress-free and smooth vacation and always available to help answer questions. We literally could not have asked for a better experience. Absolutely magical!!!

This is a beautiful house. It is nestled in the jungle and is 3 miles from Manuel Antonio beach and 1 mile to restaurants. We saw monkeys and parrots every other day in the yard. Keep in mind the house is on a large hill and walking in to town isn’t easy. You will feel every step in the summer with the roads, humidity and heat. Taxis range 10-20 per ride. I personally loved being tucked away and am very physically active so I didn’t mind walking but half of my guests mentioned they would have preferred a beach front property for this reason. The next thing to consider if the cost of the house in relation to others. Its a bit more pricey but it does come with a maid and a concierge. Both of those ladies are wonderful and responsive. Andrea was so great at picking up after our group and Susan insured all activities and transportation needs were taken care of. These 2 services are expected to be tipped at the end of your stay so insure you factor in additional costs for that.

We had a great time at Casa Tranquilidad for my fiancé’s birthday! Susan and Scott are very responsive and helpful. We really enjoyed the downstairs area and highly recommend the private chef. It’s a beautiful place in a great location!

This home and location is by far one of our best family vacations. We were extremely happy and will be a returning guest as well! Highly recommend!!

We had a great time at Scott’s house. There were 10 of us, 4 adults and 6 kids. We all slept comfortably. The beds were comfortable, which I don’t normally like the beds at other places. The kids loved the games and the pool. Susan is amazing. She gives great advice and very responsive. She set up all of our excursions and provided pick ups to all of them. Definitely utilize Susan. She knows the area well and has great tips. Andrea was a great housekeeper. She did our laundry and always had things nice and tidy when we would return from a day out exploring. We also used the private chef two nights. Highly recommend doing this. They were so kind and on time. The food tasted wonderful and they always went above and beyond. One night my son was having a reaction to something, not food related, and we didn’t have any allergens. They helped us out by calling the pharmacy and getting the medicine to us. I was so impressed with their kindness and it really put my momma heart at ease.

My family had a wonderful experience during our trip to Costa Rica.  The house was beautiful and we felt very safe.  The staff was friendly and made us feel at home.

This House and Staff are one of a Kind. You cant ask for a better experience staying here. Absolutely beautiful home and better in person. Anyone who stays here would have nothing but smiles and cry when they have to go home. Cant wait to come back. Susan, chef Renzo, and chef Roberto became part of my family by the end of my stay. Thats the kind of experience this place offers.....

Casa Tranquilidad was the perfect house for our family trip. The house was big enough so everyone had their personal space but warm and cosy enough for evenings with Netflix or around the pool table. The location of the house is impressive as you are surrounded by nature and birds and monkeys. And ideal as a starting point for our many day trips to Manuel Antonio park, Uvita, Nauyaca waterfalls, Quepos,... On top, there are so many great restaurants nearby the house that we had the best culinary experience on this holiday. With the ultimate foodie night with the private chef Robert! We absolutely loved our stay here!

The home is so much better in person than the pictures show. The place was spotless clean and the greeting with Susan was seamless. If I could leave more than 5 star review, I would! We all absolutely loved this place. I highly recommend hiring Chef Renzo as well! He cooked an amazing meal for us. Hope to stay at Casa Tranquilidad again very soon!

The house is Amazing. Very large, lots of room and amenities. It is located in a nice quiet nook of Manuel Antonio, close to many great restaurants and stores.  It's a great place to take the family. plenty of things for the kids to do with the epic game room.

Totally carefree vacation. Susan is awesome. She set up our airport transfers, our chef and our excursions.  She is a gem. Everything ran super smooth.  You can actually enjoy your vacation with no worries. House is beautiful, exactly as described. There is wildlife outside daily. We loved watching the monkeys when we were in the pool. The maid service is an added bonus - she cleaned the house and our laundry. The best part for us was the chef. Roberto was our chef for the week. He is such a great guy, very personalable and makes the best food. Totally worth paying for chef service. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation and would definitely stay here again. We definitely recommend staying here - especially if you want a fun, carefree trip. Scott and Susan take care of everything.

The place looks just like the pictures…amazing.  This is 5 star jungle living: monkeys in the trees, iguanas traversing the back yard, late night swims and relaxing in the jacuzzi as the rains came down.   We had twelve of us, 5 adults and 7 kids.  The kids hung out in the game room/tv room and the adults relaxed upstairs.  Everyone slept comfortably on the two levels.  If we go to Manuel Antonio again, we will look for this place.

Casa Tranquilidad was the absolute ideal home for our stay and accommodated our family of 8 perfectly. The pool was one of our favorite parts of the home as we spent hours in there after perfectly planned outings, with the help and guidance from Susan. White water rafting, ATVs and zip lining were the stars. Chef Renzo and Chef Roberto were professional, friendly, and extremely talented, if you book this home they are a must! Chef Renzo’s red snapper, seared tuna, lobster and shrimp salad were the highlights of our dinners spent at the house. It was like eating at a 5star restaurant, but better. We 100% recommended this wonderful jungle home.

The house was great.  Having Andrea there to help was amazing made it so much more relaxing.  The location was great.

Casa Tranquilidad was perfect for our family while vacationing in Manuel Antonio. This house is stunning! It had plenty of room for all six of us. The backyard, pool and mini pool are beautiful. Susan, the concierge) is amazing! She helped us plan our activities and gave us so much helpful advice. Andrea is the housekeeper. Besides cleaning up every day, she does laundry! And dishes! We really appreciate everything she did while we were there. It  allowed us to relax and enjoy our surroundings. Renzo and Roberto are phenomenal chefs. They both cooked us some amazing meals, but they are also very friendly and welcoming, just as Susan and Andrea are. I have never felt like I was on vacation while staying in an Airbnb before staying here. All of these wonderful people played a huge part in making our trip to Costa Rica so wonderful. Thank you all! Pura Vida!

Scott's home has all the amenities you need, having the housekeeping component made a huge difference; simply put you dirty, muddy or damp cloths in the hamper in your bathroom at the end of the day, Andrea (our housekeeper) wash's everything the next day, when you come home after a fun, adventurous day, your clothes are clean and folded on your bed. Having said that, don't overpack! A good pair of binoculars is a plus, so much wildlife to see right off the patio.

Can’t say enough about Scott’s place. Everything was amazing. Exactly as advertised and more. Monkeys, sloths, Toucans, bats, iguanas, are among the wildlife we witnessed from the backyard while floating in the pool. Susan made everything easy and organized. Well worth the small price for this house. We will definitely be back
