## The Space

This ocean view house is perfect for two guests and is located in a charming neighborhood of Manuel Antonio, situated between the beach and Quepos. Positioned at one of the highest points in Manuel Antonio, the house requires climbing approximately 100 steps to reach it. 

The effort is rewarded with stunning views of both the ocean and the surrounding mountains. The spacious balcony offers lounge chairs where you can unwind and watch the beautiful sunsets.

The house features one bedroom with a queen-size bed and a single sofa bed in the combined living room and kitchen area. Both rooms are equipped with powerful ceiling fans, and an air conditioner has recently been installed in the living room for added comfort.

The kitchen is fully stocked with all essential utensils, including a microwave, coffee maker, blender, and toaster. Near the main entrance, there is a laundry area with a washing machine available for your use as needed.

We loved our stay and were hosted very well!

Nous avons adoré notre séjour et avons été très bien accueilli!

Very good accommodation option. Close to restaurants, supermarkets, and Manuel Antonio National Park. The house is clean and well-organized, and there is even an option for doing laundry. The only thing to keep in mind is that there are a lot of stairs to get to the house, which makes it difficult for those with suitcases or those who are not in good physical shape.

Muy buena opción de alojamiento. Cerca de restaurantes, supermercados y parque Manuel Antonio. La casa limpia y organizada, incluso con opción para lavar ropa. La única consideración, es que para llegar a la casa hay muchas escaleras, por lo que complica para quienes tienen maleta o no tenga buen estado físico.

View and balcony were amazing! Tons of natural light and privacy. Parking spot was great! I am only giving 4 instead of 5 stars because the apartment was really hot in late afternoon even with AC and ceiling fans on, but it was cool every night/morning at least.

We had a few issues during our stay; no hot water for the shower, and the air conditioning stopped working during the day. On the other hand, the host was very responsive in helping us. It should also be noted that the air conditioning is located in a place where it is difficult to cool the room. So, we had to run all the ceiling fans to get a little coolness at night. For someone who is less tolerant of heat at night, it’s worth considering!

Nous avons eue quelques complications durant notre séjour; pas d’eau chaude pour la douche, air climatisé qui arrête dans la journée. Par contre, l’hôte à été très réactif pour nous aider. À noter également que l’air climatisé est situé à un endroit où c’est difficile de faire refroidir la chambre. Nous devions donc faire fonctionner tout les fans au plafond pour une petite fraîcheur la nuit. Pour quelqu’un qui tolère moins la chaleur la nuit c’est à y réfléchir!

Lovely stay! Enjoyed the apartment thoroughly, saw lots of wildlife!

Incredibly peaceful, beautiful views, and a great location! Check in was easy, and Katherin was very responsive and helpful. I would absolutely recommend this Air BNB.

A great little hideaway with a view! The patio is gorgeous, my partner and I (30M and 27F) enjoyed a beautiful evening sunset from there, and an early morning coffee whilst watching some monkeys and birds in the valley below. We wish we had stayed an extra night! Plenty to do in the area, nice food options, and the AirBnB is a calming space to rest after a day of sight-seeing. Katherin assisted with check-in, and she was great! The place has everything you could need, and the 135-or-so steps help to keep you fit while on vacation. 😂 A great stay, would highly recommend for the views and patio alone! 🤩

Very beautiful view from this place that is well placed above the village. The apartment is nice but it can get very hot during the day because of the big windows.

Beautiful place with a beautiful terrace. The 132 steps are to be considered.

Superbe endroit avec une belle terrasse. Les 132 marches sont à considérer.

Lovely Airbnb with a brilliant view. The lovely housekeeper was very responsive and met us on arrival. Thank you Jose and Katherin!

Great location and very well equipped apartment. The view from the deck is beautiful.

Tolle Lage u d sehr gut ausgestattetes Appartement. Der Blick von der Terrasse ist wunderschön.

We had an amazing stay at casa Alicia! The apartment was as described, clean, cool, and beautiful. Katherin was responsive and so kind, very helpful. Great location and very close to Manuel Antonio park. We would recommend this Airbnb to everyone! It was hard to leave! For a tasty cheep meal soda angel is right down the street.

Emma, thank you so much for your kind words. It was truly a pleasure hosting you both. I’m so happy you enjoyed the apartment and the location. You’re welcome back anytime! ✨

This is a fantastic place to stay. There are around 130 steps to reach it but if you can manage that, it’s more than worth it. There is so much wildlife to see. We sat on our balcony each morning watching the birds including toucans but there were also monkeys which came right up to the balcony, including one with a baby, and we could also hear howler monkeys. We also saw a sloth in the trees by the main road! The apartment was spotless with plenty of space and the host was really helpful and even let us in over 3 hours early as we arrived early.

we greatly enjoyed our stay! close enough to walk to the beach (30ish minutes) and a bunch of restaurants and shops nearby, while also being in a quite safe, beautiful neighborhood. we greatly enjoyed hanging out on the large porch playing games watching tucans and monkeys! very clean, responsive host. would definitely stay again!

The view from the balcony is worth the 130 steps to reach it! We saw monkeys, toucans, and other birds from the balcony. Not always quiet, what with occasional barking dogs, howler monkeys, and motorcycles, but that’s Costa Rica for you—quepos area anyway. Hosts were terrific and we totally enjoyed our stay.

Great place and great location, the steps were definitely worth the view. Manuel Antonio National Park is very easy to reach. Communication with the host was great and very easy. Again and again I would book this place.

Super Unterkunft und tolle Lage, die Stufen waren den Ausblick auf jeden Fall wert. Manuel Antonio Nationalpark sehr schnell zu erreichen. Kommunikation mit der Gastgeberin war super und sehr einfach. Immer wieder würde ich diese Unterkunft buchen.

Very nice place to stay, comfortably suitable for two people. The apartment is modernly decorated and things of daily use are generously provided. The apartment is air-conditioned and a washing machine is also available. The reception was extremely friendly. The hostess was helpful and the process completely uncomplicated. The apartment is only accessible via a relatively long staircase. This definitely offers impressive views as well as a private atmosphere, should only be considered when booking. Private parking is available. The location is ideal for visiting Manuel Antonio National Park as well as the numerous beaches. Nearby are restaurants and supermarkets.

Sehr schöne Unterkunft, bequem geeignet für zwei Personen. Die Wohnung ist modern eingerichtet und Sachen des täglichen Gebrauches werden großzügig zur Verfügung gestellt. Die Wohnung ist klimatisiert und zudem steht eine Waschmaschine zur Verfügung. Der Empfang war ausgesprochen freundlich. Die Gastgeberin war hilfsbereit und der Ablauf völlig unkompliziert. Die Wohnung ist nur über eine relativ lange Treppe zu erreichen. Dies bietet auf jeden Fall eine beeindruckende Aussicht sowie eine private Atmosphäre, sollte nur bei der Buchung nur berücksichtigt werden. Eine eigene Parkmöglichkeit ist vorhanden. Die Lage bietet sich sowohl für den Besuch des Nationalparks Manuel Antonio sowie der zahlreichen Strände an. In der Nähe befinden sich Restaurants und Supermärkte.

Very worth it for the price. Beautiful nature, tons of monkeys, great views, VERY friendly host, close to tons of food. Me and my girlfriend are university students so places like soda angel, close to the Airbnb, were very convenient. Of course, if you are willing to pay, tons of very nice restaurants around. Bus takes you anywhere you wanna go, quepos, Manuel Antonio beach, anywhere on route 618, for about 75 cents USD per person. We used it at least 2 times a day. Very safe location. Would recommend.

The view is phenomenal from here as long as you can walk up 125 steps to get there from the street. Katherin is a responsive, excellent host and will even help you with your luggage going up. The bed is great and has an incredible view when you wake up. The kitchen is well supplied along with a great gas stove and refrigerator. There is a washer there for your use as well. No dryer. You can dry clothes on a provided rack. Air conditioner with ceiling fans as well. This is a rare find that incudes a deck to sit out in the morning with an ocean view and listen to the sounds a watch birds  (toucans & macaws!) fly nearby as you sip your coffee. I’ll be staying again. This was my second stay. If you are fit, you’ll love the view! Thank you Katherin!

Jose was absolutely amazing and even helped us carry our luggage up 100 steps despite it being so late at night. Thank you so much for your kindness!(:

I very much enjoyed the time in Casa Alicia. Jose always responded quickly and was also very helpful, unfortunately I did not meet him in person. Most of the time I had contact with his sister Kathrin, she was also very friendly and helpful. The apartment was clean and looks just like the pictures. My personal highlight was the balcony. You have a beautiful view and you can even see the sea. I spent a lot of time there and also saw a lot of animals. Parrots, toucans, monkeys, hummingbirds and many others. You also only have to walk about 5 minutes until you are in the center. The bus stop is also nearby. I would book it again anytime.

Ich habe die Zeit in Casa Alicia sehr genossen. Jose hat immer schnell geantwortet und war auch sehr hilfsbereit, persönlich getroffen habe ich in leider nicht. Den meistens Kontakt hatte ich mit seiner Schwester Kathrin, sie war auch sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Apartment war sauber und sieht auch so aus wie auf den Bildern. Mein persönliches Highlight war der Balkon. Man hat eine wunderschöne Aussicht und man sieht sogar das Meer. Ich habe dort viel zeit verbracht und habe auch viele Tiere gesehen. Papageie, Tucane, Affen, Kolibris und noch viele andere. Man muss auch nur etwa 5 Minuten laufen bis man im Zentrum ist. Die Bushaltestelle ist auch in der nähe. Ich würde es jederzeit wieder Buchen.

Wonderful place to stay. Clean and comfortable and serene. I highly recommend!

The place is well located, close to everything. The public bus takes us everywhere. The accommodation allowed us to see everything from our balcony and in the street that leads to it: macaws, parrots, toucans, squirrel monkeys, capuchins, howlers, agoutis! The accommodation is very clean and well-equipped. It is air-conditioned, but the room is still a little hot. I would gladly return to this listing and highly recommend it.

Le logement est bien situé, près de tout. L'autobus public nous mène partout. Le logement nous a permis de tout voir de notre balcon et dans la rue qui y mène: arras, perroquets, toucans, singes écureils, capucins, hurleurs, agoutis! Le logement est très propre et bien équipé. Il est climatisé, mais la chambre demeure un peu chaude malgré tout. Je retournerais volontiers dans ce logement et je le recommande chaudement.

The house was beautiful, just what we needed as a home base to explore the surrounding areas. The view was gorgeous, we saw wildlife right from our windows and patio. The stairs are no joke, and tough after a long day of exploring, but as long as you don’t forget anything or go home too many times a day, they are not too bad. Would recommend!

Nice place with a lovely view. The stairs are not for the faint of heart. It gets pretty warm in the area and in the apartment. There is 1 ac unit which can make it a little tough for the bedroom to cool down. Cute sitting area on the deck off the living space that offers a view of the sunset and wildlife.

Stylish with a great view, but there are 130 steps to go up!!  A short walk to town, everywhere is hilly.  publish bus is available to the park or Quepos, for 370 colones.

A nice house , gentle host who lives a house further and was always available Seen many birds from the balcony. The 133 steps is really getting used to, fortunately a good sofa and bed to rest after the climb Thank you Katerina for all the help 🍀😊

Een leuke huis , vriendelijke gastvrouw die een huis verder woont en altijd beschikbaar was Vanaf het balkon vele vogels gezien. De 133 treden is echt wennen, gelukkig een goeie bank en bed om na de klim uit te rusten Dank je wel Katerina voor alle hulp 🍀😊

Great service from Katherine. Place, cleanliness and comfort. Plus the stairs are used to burn some of the calories ingested this summer😉. We'll be back!

Genial la atención de Katherine. El lugar, la limpieza y la comodidad. Además las escaleras sirven para quemar algo de las calorías ingeridas en este verano 😉. Volveremos!

As shown in the pictures, an unbeatable view from the terrace. We were visited by monkeys and toucans, it was an amazing experience. The only thing I would like to clarify is the stairs, they are quite a few steps. Afterwards, the house has everything to have a stay 10 pts.

Tal cual como muestran las fotos, una vista desde la terraza inmejorable. Nos visitaron monos y tucanes, fue una experiencia increíble. Lo único que me gustaría aclarar son las escaleras, son bastantes escalones. Después, la casa tiene todo para tener una estadía 10 pts.

The apartment is very cute, clean and modern quality furniture, has a fantastic view. The only thing unfavorable is that you have to climb a lot of stairs, but it's worth it, if you have no health difficulties. For family with small children it is not very advisable because the terrace railing is very low. Otherwise I recommend it, loved the apartment, fabulous.

El departamento es muy lindo, muebles de calidad limpio y moderno, tiene una vista fantástica. Lo único desfavorable es que hay que subir muchas escaleras, pero vale la pena, si no tienes dificultades de salud. Para familia con niños pequeños no es muy aconsejable porque la barandilla de la terraza es muy baja. De lo contrario lo recomiendo, me encantó el departamento, fabuloso.

We had a wonderful time at the apartment where we could see monkeys and toucans from the balcony. The kitchen is well staffed and the view is worth the “stair workout”

We enjoyed our 2 nights and were able to easily get to Manuel Antonio Park. Pro Close to Manuel Antonio Onsite contact very friendly and helpful View from deck is fantastic. Unit was clean and tidy. Internet worked well. Con There is no Television. The air conditioner is turned off by timer at 2am and comes back on at 9am. It gets hot in there! The stairs to get to the unit are as described in the listing and are no joke. You need to plan everything you do so as not to waste a trip up the stairs! You will be out of breathe! Water pressure in minimal in the shower. Just a drizzle.

We enjoyed our stay at Jose's house. Katherine met us at our car and even helped my wife who struggled with her luggage a bit! Speaking of the stairs. They are intense but doable. We planned out our days and stayed busy so we really only had to climb up once a day. Katherine was available for every question and was even willing to help us bring luggage back down. The views from the unit were amazing. We enjoyed watching the beautiful sunset. My wife spent a lot of time outside with her bird app listening for and finding birds. She also loved watching the monkeys jump around. The unit had everything we needed to make our stay complete. There isn't a TV in the unit but we were tired after busy days on the water. We walked to Soda Alice, ate at Ronnie's Place and spent the day at the beach outside of the national park. We also took a day trip to Uvita. It was a great location to enjoy the area .

I had an incredible stay here! The bit from here is amazing. From the moment José’s assistant helped me with my luggage and showed me in to the moment I left, I felt cared for and at home. Jose is an excellent communicator! The bed was comfy with a fan and a beautiful view to wake up to. The air conditioning was great to have, yet I spent my early morning drinking coffee on the deck, listening to Quepos come alive with toucans, monkeys, birds and roosters. The kitchen was well supplied with cooking utensils, a great gas stove a large refrigerator. I also did my laundry since I was there for 4 nights. The washer is new with a supply of laundry soap. There is a clothes line and a drying rack. There are many steps getting up to this beautiful place, but worth every step. I’m 73 years old and did those stairs each day! The market is a 15 min. walk. I highly recommend Ronny’s Place restaurant for a sunset dinner! Now you can see why I gave this top stars! Thank you, Jose! I will be back!

The apartment itself is amazing, the check-in host is nearby and helpful for all questions. There was construction on the lower level of the place while I stayed there that was not communicated beforehand but the workers were flexible with hours.

Good base to use for Manuel Antonio Park. Saw squirrel monkeys and lots of toucans from the balcony/windows! Well equipped kitchen and all as described. Stairs are brutal when the sun's out so take all your luggage up in one go if you can! Super handy having the back yard for laundry too.

Great house to stay in Manuel Antonio. There is everything you need. Good bed, perfect kitchen and amazing terrace. Always in touch. Highly recommend to stay

We very much appreciated the stay in Casa Alicia and the host Jose. Lovely space in the apartment, functional kitchen and a porch to look out over the valley. Great to be able to enjoy both animals and nature on the first row. The last day we even saw a sloth in the top of a tree. It was easy to communicate with both José and Katherine (co-host). Also appreciated recommendations about restaurants, etc. that are available when you reach the property. A plus is the proximity to the bus stop where the buses run four times an hour. Jose offers a private accommodation in a nice apartment in scenic surroundings. We think it is absolutely worth it despite the many steps.

Vi uppskattade mycket vistelsen i Casa Alicia och värden Jose. Härligt utrymme i lägenheten, funktionellt kök och en veranda att se ut över dalen. Fantastiskt att kunna ta del av både djur och natur på första parkett. Sista dagen såg vi till och med en sengångare i toppen på ett träd. Det gick lätt att kommunicera med både José och Katherine (medvärd). Uppskattade även rekommendationer om restauranger mm som finns framme när du kommer till boendet. Ett plus är närheten till busshållplatsen där bussarna kör fyra gånger i timmen. Jose erbjuder ett privat boende i fin lägenhet i naturskön omgivning. Vi tycker det absolut är värt det trots de många trappstegen.

We saw two scarlet macaws, two toucans, and two lizards from the balcony during our 3 day stay! Jose and Katherin were very responsive and helpful. The place was pristine. The stairs are quite tough but a good workout. Water pressure in the shower is quite low but we didn’t mind it so much.

It was all great! We felt comfortable and from the balcony, you have a great view!

Es war alles super! Wir haben uns wohl gefühlt und vom Balkon aus, hat man eine tolle Aussicht!

Great stay with a nice view. Clean place. Lots of communication from hosts on local activities. Got to see wildlife such as macaws and toucans from the porch. Great price.

Amazing setup with great views, cozy spot, and tons of wildlife every day. Yes, the stairs can be a bit tough in the heat, but like everyone else says it’s totally worth it. Close to the bus stop and some restaurants are walkable. I rented an electric scooter which made it more enjoyable and convenient, having a car would be nice too but not required. Kathrine and the owner were super nice and always answered me when I needed them. The place is as advertised, would stay again!

In the middle of the nature. Lots of stairs to access the place, but absolutely worth it .

We had a fantastic week at Jose's place. We saw so much wildlife every morning before we left for the day! This time of the year (February), we couldn't actually see the sunset from the deck, but still, the colors were incredible, and the views were breathtaking The home is well-equipped, and it was very convenient to have the washer. I will say that the water pressure is not the best and that would matter if we stayed more than a week. The stairs are no joke, so be smart about it. However it was so worth it for the views and wildlife alone. Every single day we saw monkeys (all 3 types), Toucans (2types), Scarlet Macaws, birds of prey and parakeets. We also saw a Coati twice on our street! We didn't feel that walking was a viable option (there are no sidewalks in MA, and no lights at night). Plus, the hills are no joke, and parking was easy, so we were happy to have a car. The house is also only walkable to one beach (about a 30-minute walk), and we wanted to explore. Pura Vida!

We had a great time staying at Jose's place! From the balcony we saw monkeys, toucans and macaws. This was a great airbnb!

Great location!  Close walking distance to great restaurants and close to the bus stop.  The Airbnb had gorgeous views and all necessary amenities.  Would absolutely book again!

The photos can't reflect this beautiful location. The view from the terrace was a dream to be. A short walk to Manuel Antonio and yet secluded in nature. From our terrace we saw almost more animals than in the parks: tukane, Aras, birds of prey... in the morning you could temporarily hear howler monkeys. The equipment was very good and there are very plenty of towels in the bathroom. Katherine is super eager and responds immediately. I can only agree with everyone here. Super helpful. We had great, memorable days at this place. Would come back any time, Ahja and we saw the stairs as a workout.

Die Fotos können diese wunderschöne Lage nicht wiedergeben. Der Blick von der Terrasse war ein Traum. Ein kurzer Fußweg bis Manuel Antonio und trotzdem abgeschieden in der Natur. Von unserer Terrasse haben wir fast mehr Tiere gesehen, als in den Parks: Tukane, Aras, Greifvögel… morgens konnte man zeitweise Brüllaffen hören. Die Ausstattung war sehr gut und es gab im Bad sehr ausreichend Handtücher. Katherine ist super bemüht und antwortet sofort. Ich kann mich hier allen darin nur anschließen. Super hilfsbereit. Wir hatten tolle, unvergessliche Tage in dieser Unterkunft. Würde jederzeit wieder kommen, Achja und die Treppen haben wir als workout gesehen.

Absolute gem. The view is worth the stairs. I really relaxed in this place, enjoying the massive windows and outlook. Balcony is wonderful, like a second lounge. Katerina, who manages the property day to day, is really helpful and available, as she lives nearby, making check in easy too. Finally, the Wi-Fi works really well for if you need to work.

Excellent stay , the host's attention was amazing. Everything was super clean and comfortable , in the kitchen you can find everything for cooking and the room is too nice. They have an amazing view and it's very safe We'll definitely be back!

Excelente hospedaje , la atención de la anfitriona fué increíble. Todo estaba súper limpio y cómodo , en la cocina puedes encontrar de todo para cocinar y la habitación es demasiado linda. Tienen una vista increíble y es muy seguro Definitivamente vamos a volver!

A place with a fantastic view, everything very modern. Accommodation is very quiet. Landlord is always easily accessible. A few stairs have to be climbed, but it is worth it.

Eine Unterkunft mit traumhaften Ausblick, alles sehr modern. Unterkunft sehr ruhig gelegen. Vermieter immer gut erreichbar. Ein paar Treppen müssen bestiegen werden, aber es lohnt sich.

Casa Alicia is fabulous, the view is spectacular and the layout of the terrace allows you to fully enjoy the landscape. We watched splendid sunsets! The house also has the advantage of being minutes away from Manuel-Antonio National Park and many restaurants. The place has all the amenities for long stay. Thank you Jose and Katherine for your welcome, it was a real pleasure staying at Casa Alicia!

La Casa Alicia est fabuleuse, la vue est spectaculaire et l’aménagement de la terrasse permet de profiter pleinement du paysage. Nous avons observé des couchers de soleil splendides! La maison a également l’avantage d’être à quelques minutes du Parc National Manuel-Antonio et de nombreux restaurants. L’endroit possède toutes les commodités pour un séjour prolongé. Merci Jose et Katherine pour votre accueil, ce fut un véritable bonheur de loger à la Casa Alicia!

Perfect location to be immersed in nature from exotic birds, various species of monkeys, butterflies and more all from the comfort of the home.  Great views too.

Beautiful house and location! The patio was the highlight and was perfectly equipped with a comfortable table and chairs, and the roof was large enough to provide plenty of coverage to stay outside during the rain. Lots of wildlife and a beautiful view. The stairs are no joke, we traveled with a carry on sized suitcase and backpack which was manageable but I don't think you'd want to lug a larger checked bag up the stairs. The property manager Katherine was fantastic (give her a raise!!), she was extremely welcoming when we arrived, and came up to the house in the middle of a torrential downpour TWICE in less than five minutes to fix the hot water for us.

It’s a stunning apartment perched on a hillside in the middle of the forest. As dusk approached one evening, around a double capuchin monkeys climbed about in front of the balcony before moving on. We were later greeted by a pair of toucans. The apartment self is clean and well-designed architecturally, and it really feels like a treehouse. The stairs are a bit of a workout, but the view it totally worth it.

Beautiful airbnb with amazing view—highly recommend staying here!! Willi and Cecilia were wonderful hosts and were extremely accommodating and flexible.

Positive The apartment is very cozy and modern The view is great you can see all the way to the sea If you have a car, the location is ideal for excursions in the surrounding area The apartment is a bit off the beaten path in the countryside. You always have a visit from the dead's head and other animals. The 130 steps to the apartment contribute to fitness Negative The air conditioning did not work for us and as we learned also not with the predecessor It doesn't have hot water and the water pressure while showering leaves much to be desired

Positiv Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und modern Die Aussicht ist grandios man sieht bis ans Meer Hat man ein Auto so ist die Lage ideal um Ausflüge im Umland zu unternehmen Die Wohnung liegt etwas abseits im Grünen man hat immer wieder mal Besuch von Totenkopfäffchen und anderen Tieren Die 130 Stufen zur Wohnung tragen zur Fitness bei Negativ Die Airconditioning hat bei uns nicht funktioniert und wie wir erfahren haben beim Vorgänger auch nicht Warmes Wasser hat es nicht und der Wasserdruck beim duschen lässt zu wünschen übrig

I had an awesome some stay here at casa Alicia! Everything was perfect!

Casa Alicia was the perfect place to start our costa rica adventure. Waking up in the jungle with monkeys right outside to greet us. AMAZING SUNSET VEIW from the living room and patio, absolutely unbeatable. Don’t let the stairs deter you if you are physically capable, it is quite a workout but well worth it, part of what made the adventure so special! The house was realitivley cool, cooler when you close the blinds in the bedroom, leave the bathroom door shut, and leave the fan on high!

Our stay was amazing!!! The house was even better than the pictures. The sunset every day was the best view in all of Manuel Antonio. It is located very close to the main road which made it easy to catch taxis. It was incredibly clean and the hosts were amazing! We saw monkeys from the bathroom window often! During the afternoon when the sun was shining through the windows it could get a bit hot even with AC but we didn’t care because we were usually out and about doing things around Manuel Antonio at that time. Everything was amazing, one of the best airbnb experiences I have ever had!!

Well located apartment, with all the necessary utilities and a terrace with spectacular views. Access to it with a large stretch of height, to keep in mind if there are any mobility limitations

Apartamento bien ubicado, con todos los utiles necesarios y una terraza con vistas espectaculares. Acceso al mismo con un tramo de esaleras considerable, a tener en cuenta si se tiene alguna limitación de la movilidad

Casa Alicia is a cozy place and the view is spectacular. It is awesome to follow sun sets on the balcony. Everything went smoothly and the apartment was clean. If you are not a couple, I suggest you to mention it so that you can have separate sheets. I would highly recommend this place!

Staying at Casa Alicia was an amazing experience. I stayed there for a month working remotely and could've stayed another! Wifi was excellent and I had no issues with my many video calls. Katherin was very responsive and ensured I had everything I needed, including weekly cleanings of the Airbnb. The views, nature, sunsets & wildlife truly are incredible, a must-see in Costa Rica! Yes the steps can be a lot sometimes, but that's the price to pay for the views! 10/10 recommend.

Nice place with a nice view. Beautiful birds and monkeys surrounding the house It can be noisy and dogs bark every night, all night long. There are also no curtains that fully cover the windows, so we had bad nights. Furthermore, everything in the house is present.

Mooie plek met leuk uitzicht. Prachtige vogels en aapjes rondom het huis. Het is wel gehorig en er blaffen iedere nacht honden, de hele nacht door. Ook zijn er geen gordijnen die de ramen volledig dekken, dus wij hadden slechte nachten. Verder is alles in het huis aanwezig.

great location, it's a steep climb but not a big deal - great accessibility to the beaches. we walked to all of them

The description matched the place perfectly. The directions to the home were a little confusing but but host Katherin helped us out. Katherin was also helpful w recommendations for food and activities. Hauling luggage and groceries up and down the stairs was a bit daunting but we expected it. Spectacular views and abundant wildlife Have to say the monkeys crossing the roof early morning was loud but kinda charming. We drove the short drive into quepos and Manuel Antonio daily. Tons of things to do that were very close by. Would definitely stay here again!

The stairs were no joke, but very worth the climb! The kitchen was stocked with good cookware and a few basic spices which we appreciated. We found a cockroach and a few ants during our stay but they didn’t cause much trouble. Sunset was always a treat because the view is fantastic. I’d definitely stay here again!

The view is remarkable. We saw Macaw’s, 2 types of Tucan’s, white face, howler and squirrel monkeys. Beautiful sunsets. A great outside deck for morning yoga.

My stay was ok, I wouldn't book again though. I think it's overpriced for what it is. It's quite far from everything and those stairs are tough! I would say I'm relatively fit and it was a mission for me to carry 2 bags up there. Also the shuttle buses back to the airport or other locations, don't stop at individual air bnbs so I had to walk to the nearest hotel (Hotel Naoz) up the road, only a 5 minute walk, but up quite a steep hill, which was tricky in the heat with 2 quite heavy bags. If I was to ever come back to the area, I'd stay in Hotel Naoz - it's a similar price, has a swimming pool, has really lovely and helpful staff and provides a nice breakfast.

We loved staying in Casa Alicia - especially sitting on the big balcony in the morning watching all the wildlife around. This included toucans, monkeys and occasionally macaws. It was a 30 minute walk to the beach but the beach was beautiful so well worth the hike - the walk back uphill was hot work but there were plenty of places to stop for a cocktail on the way back! The apartment had everything we needed. We loved visiting the national park nearby, and went on a zip line trip which was fun, plus paddleboarding one afternoon. Lots to see and do. We didn’t want to leave!

A lovely apartment with great views of the sea and woodland.  We could see little capuchin monkeys, cute aguties, toucans, iguanas and lots of different birds.

We had a nice time in the house, only minus would be the stairs, and many cucarachas After Sunset.

The pictures don’t do this property justice!  I felt like it’s even nicer than the pictures.  Don’t let the stairs deter you (if your physically able to handle 130 of course).  Everything was spotless and we felt instantly at home.  The bedding was sooo nice and dry- a rarity in Costa Rica.  The most comfortable sleeps of the trip for sure.  We saw tons of animals from the deck over our 4 night stay.   The view is breathtaking.  The kitchen is well equipped- knives that cut were truly appreciated.  We were so sad to leave, I wish this was our home.  Excellent neighbourhood, walkable to some restaurants and grocery stores and there is a sort of cab stand at the end of the road too.  Hopefully we get to return one day.

We had an amazing stay here! Stairs were a little work out but the view made the trek well worth it. It was nice to be a little off the beaten path, surrounded by trees with a view of the coastline. We could hear some neighborhood sounds (a couple dogs barking, a nearby soccer field) but other than that, peaceful, serene, and definitely a great value.

Willi and Cecilia's place was lovely and we loved staying there. The view from the large balcony is magical and definitely a unique feature of the apartment! However, it is important to note that the beach is hardly accessible on foot from the apartment or you have to walk down the mountain for 40-45 minutes. The stairs to the apartment are actually a bit strenuous, especially with luggage, but that is what you are prepared for :) The check-in was very pleasant, as this is done by the neighbor. Without it, the location would have been hard to find. Fortunately, however, she was right on site and caught us. That was great! And personally a kettle and a toaster were missing. At least we couldn't find it. Otherwise, the apartment only had good things to offer and we are very happy with the choice.

Die Unterkunft von Willi und Cecilia war schön und uns hat der Aufenthalt dort sehr gefallen. Die Sicht vom großen Balkon ist zauberhaft und definitiv ein Alleinstellungsmerkmal der Wohnung! Man muss aber dafür beachten, dass der Strand von der Wohnung zu Fuß kaum zu erreichen ist oder man muss 40-45 Minuten den Berg runterlaufen. Die Treppen bis zur Wohnung sind tatsächlich etwas anstrengend, besonders mit Gepäck, aber darauf wird man ja vorbereitet :) Der Check-In war sehr angenehm, da dieser durch die Nachbarin vorgenommen wird. Ohne sie wäre der Standort schwer zu finden gewesen. Zum Glück war sie aber direkt vor Ort und hat uns abgefangen. Das war super! Und persönlich haben ein Wasserkocher und ein Toaster gefehlt. Zumindest haben wir sie nicht gefunden. Ansonsten hatte die Wohnung aber nur Gutes zu bieten und wir sind sehr glücklich mit der Wahl.

We enjoyed spending time at this place, particularly the view and wildlife.  We felt like we were the zoo and animals came to check us out! Our favorite time was having coffee on the deck each morning and watching nature! We observed the monkeys and lots of birds!

This place was beautiful, clean, pleasant and very spacious (plenty of room for 2 yoga mats). We enjoyed staying there and will happily come again if we're around. The balcony is wonderful and the sunset view is epic. The kitchen was the most equipped we've seen.

Amazing place, stairs are a workout, but the view and nature are 100% worth it. Wifi is decent for working remotely / some streaming, but not fast enough for high bandwidth activity (gaming, downloading / uploading film, etc). Everything is as described and the surrounding area is safe. Everything is accessible by bus / walking. 10/10 will be staying again

Wow what a beautiful place to wake up and go to bed, spent 3hours every morning watching birds. Great place !

Great location, very clean, wonderful view. The stairs were a good excuse for much needed exercise 😁

We had a truly wonderful time at Casa Alicia. Will and Cecilia‘s place is the perfect spot from where to explore Manuel Antonio. You can go to of the many restaurants, but you have everything you ned there to cook a delicious meal an enjoy the fantastic view. Sitting on the balcony, we saw many Birds, Monkeys and even one Agouti. We had a great time, and yes the over 100 steps are quite exhausting most of all with luggage. But all the best things in life come with a challenge, and this place is 100% worth it. Would come back any time.

This place has a fantastic view! As mentioned in other reviews, it's a substantial climb up the hillside to reach the apartment, but the view is worth it. The kitchen is well equipped, however, there is not shampoo/body wash for the shower and furnishings/linens are basic. The on-site host, Katherine, was friendly and helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Alicia, even with the 100+ stairs. The house was very comfortable, Katherin was super helpful. We love Marco Antonio park and the whole area. Definitely recommend. Many thanks!

Great location with a beautiful view. As previous reviews mentioned, there are quite a number of steps, but as long as you are prepared for that you will love your stay.

What a wonderful view to wake up to! Katherine was so amazing and helpful checking in and beyond; I felt very safe, even as a woman traveling alone. The Villa was stocked with everything you could need, and I would definitely recommend this adorable place to friends. Thank you again! ~Aimee

Nice apartment with an amazing view! Everything was as described and very clean, which is important for us. The communication with the owners was fast and helpful, but they are not on site. Katherin takes care of the check-in/ check-out, lives close to the house and was available for any issues.

I feel like the photos can’t show the proper beauty of this place! It took our breath away the moment we stepped in. We only stayed two nights but we really loved it. Watching the sunset from the balcony was so special. Kitchen has everything you may need, the bed is comfy and you’re waking up to such a lovely view.  Groceries and restaurants are nearby and Manuel Antonio park is a short drive away. The owners were also very lovely and so helpful. Thank you for a lovely time!

We had a wonderful stay here. The place is very spacious and has a great balcony. AC and fans are very helpful as it get very hot in Quepos! It was a bit tricky to find as there is no specific address, but our host provided specific instructions which were easy to follow. Also be forewarned that there are a lot of stairs to get to the home. We found it easier to leave or suitcases in the car and just bring our clothes up as needed. It is worth it though to be at the top of the hill with a better view! Would recommend this home to travellers.

The accommodation is a dream, the view from the balcony is fantastic! The apartment is cleaned and equipped with the most necessary. The stairs are of course a bit demanding but if you are good on foot, it is no problem. The key handover and everything else went with Katherin, also this was not a problem at all. Good shopping and restaurants nearby, only to the beach you have to walk a bit but there are also taxis available everywhere!

Die Unterkunft ist ein Traum, der Blick vom Balkon ist traumhaft! Die Wohnung ist sauber und mit dem nötigsten ausgestattet. Die Treppen sind natürlich etwas anspruchsvoll aber wenn man gut zu Fuß ist, ist es kein Problem. Die Schlüsselübergabe und alles andere lief mit Katherin, auch dies war überhaupt kein Problem. Gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants in der Nähe, nur zum Strand muss man ein Stückchen laufen aber es stehen auch überall Taxis zur Verfügung!

Very nice everything ! We will definitely be back :)

Sehr schön alles ! Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder :)

This place was lovely. It was as expected, if not better. The neighborhood dogs are a bit barky but other than that it was dope. We left our suitcases in the car so we didn’t have to lug them up the 120 or so steps and just brought what we needed for each day (only stayed 2 nights.) It’s a great location and we loved the sunset view.

We had a great time staying at Casa Alicia. The view from the balcony was absolutely beautiful! It was also in a good location close to town but still out of the way a little bit. I highly recommend!

We loved our stay here and spent many hours on the beautiful  balcony. the view was stunning . The airbnb was well equipped and had everything  we needed

Wonderful apartment, everything was perfect, great views and very good communication with the host.

Such an incredible gem! The view here is spectacular with an unobstructed view of the ocean and the surrounding jungle. The kitchen was fully Stocked with anything you’d need to make this feel right like home. Morning coffee on the balcony and sunset wine on the balcony we’re incredible start and finishes to each day. We saw monkeys, Tucans and parrots from the balcony as well and fell asleep to the soothing sound of crickets. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a place in paradise Note- there are 127 to get to the spot but assuming you don’t have health issues preventing easy mobility it’s a fine climb and worth every step

Amazing view! Had everything that we needed.
