This house is stunning. The pictures do not do it justice. It’s in a great location, but is also quiet and private with million dollar views!
Host Response
Thank you Rita for such a nice review, we really appreciate your comments! Hope to host you again ;) Pura vida

Beautiful accommodation. Lots of animals in the area. We were able to see macaws, monkeys, and lizards from the terrace!

Apartment with all the comforts to make you feel at home. Clean, comfortable beds and good views. The monkeys welcomed us and we loved it. We used the laundry service and it was perfect, at a good price. The bus that goes to Manuel Antonio stops 200 meters away, which was great for us. We couldn't enjoy the pool because some tenants were vaping and listening to music, which bothered us quite a bit.
Host Response

We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the location and the visit from our dear friends, the monkeys. We're sorry you weren't able to enjoy the pool as you expected.

The location turned out to be convenient and quiet, ideal for resting and enjoying the surroundings. The host was attentive and communicative, always available for any questions, which gave us a lot of confidence. Overall, it was a very pleasant and hassle-free experience. We're definitely going back. Thank you very much. The place was more than we expected.

Julio’s place was absolutely amazing every thing was perfect, really comfortable house, spacious but everything on the same level which was great, location in the middle of the jungle to allow us to observe wildlife in the best way you could ever imagine, you actually see more animals and wildlife sitting on the balcony or by the pool than visiting any of the national parks, we found the house equipped with everything you need so you feel like at home, we would definitely return when we next visit Quepos, thanks Julio for our great vacation!
Host Response

The home was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed for our family of 5. The beds were comfortable and we really enjoyed that there was a bathroom attached to each room. What really makes this home stand out is the pool and outdoor space and the breath taking view! The pool was warm and we spent a lot of time out there just taking in the beauty around us. The pictures don’t do it justice. The hosts were fantastic and helpful with recommendations and clear instructions as well. As others have said, the drive up the driveway is daunting but that’s the trade off you get for the view. This home would be better suited if you have a car. We did not rent one so we did have to hire taxis to go anywhere but they were readily available. Everything we wanted to do was close and a quick taxi ride. Would definitely recommend this home. We had a fantastic time! Thank you for hosting us!
Host Response
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review Christie! 😊 We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed the home, pool, views, and our recommendations. It was a pleasure hosting your family, and we are always going to be glad to help, we hope to welcome you back to Manuel Antonio in the future!

The house is a dream; the view is phenomenal. We were completely overwhelmed. The kitchen is clean and very well equipped. A welcome with fresh fruits and coffee. You need a car to get there. It goes steeply uphill. The pool is beautiful and is also cleaned twice a week. The contact was very friendly and helpful. We can only highly recommend it to everyone!
Host Response
Thank you so much Ulf, for your wonderful review! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the views, the house, and the pool. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we truly appreciate your recommendation!

It exceeded my expectations! The place is nicer than what you see in the photos It's a very cozy place, nice and full of vegetation. When the host found out that we were traveling with a baby, he left us a crib. What a nice touch!
Host Response
We are very happy to know that we were helpful in making your stay as pleasant as possible. Thank you very much for your comment. We hope to welcome you back ;)

I stayed here with my 3 teenagers for 5 nights. We all absolutely loved it. Everyone was welcoming, helpful and friendly. Our villa was comfortable, well stocked and we saw monkeys and iguanas every day. Our pool was cleaned daily for us and they put out 2 brand new hammocks for us that we enjoyed daily. The kind people in villa were so responsive with every request and went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The hidden waterfall on the property was a favorite for my son. If we are ever fortunate to return to this area, we would absolutely stay here again.
Host Response
Thank you Jackie, for sharing such a lovely review! It makes us very happy to know that your family felt at home and enjoyed the little things that make a stay here special. We’re especially glad the kids had fun spotting the wildlife and discovering the waterfall! We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to see you all again someday!

This is a beautiful place, surrounded by wonderful lush, tropical gardens. The private Pool is delightful because it was the wet season. However, the road leading up to the villa is very steep and very slippery. So you need to be careful when driving. I attempted to walk down the hill, and in fact, I fell on a slippery sport. Totally my fault. I should’ve taken the car instead, but we were not prepared for that in the description, there was no mention of the status of that hill, or what that would be like in the wet season.
Host Response
Thank you for your kind words Amanda and for sharing your experience. We’re glad you enjoyed the villa. We’re sorry to hear about your fall, and we hope you were okay. We truly appreciate your feedback and will make sure to provide clearer information about the road, especially during the rainy season. We hope to welcome you back ;)

Casa Heron is absolutely beautiful with stunning views. We saw monkeys, iguanas, lizards and birds from the house and had a coati come right up to us at the side of the pool. Julio was an excellent host. We had a very small issue (replacement batteries required for the AC) which Julio sorted out immediately. The only down side is the very steep hill up to the house which was slippy when wet. All in all we loved it here and didn’t want to leave.
Host Response
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We also appreciate your feedback about the steep driveway, especially during rainy weather. We hope to welcome you back for another memorable stay in the future!

Had a lovely stay at Villa Mot Mot! The house was very spacious, clean, well appointed, and the fresh fruit on the table was a nice surprise. each bedroom had air-conditioning and the beds were comfy. Having a washer dryer available was also very handy for our family. Julio checked in with us during the stay to make sure everything was as it should be. It was just our family and we had more than enough room, but there is also a long driveway and parking area if more were staying here. While relaxing in the pool, we saw all kinds of birds around. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would love to stay again!
Host Response
Thank you for staying with us Jean! We're so happy to hear you and your family enjoyed Villa Mot Mot and everything it has to offer. It was a pleasure hosting you. Pura vida ;)

Casa Quetzal is wonderful. We loved every space in the house. It is very spacious, has a lot of privacy, and you can feel the tranquility everywhere. The pictures don't do it justice, since it's more beautiful in person. Don't hesitate to book your stay at this house. Thank you very much for all the attention. We loved the detail of the fruit basket they left us. We're not saying goodbye, but rather see you soon, because we will definitely be back. Pura Vida!
Host Response
Pura Vida, Paola! What a nice comment. Rest assured that we'll be waiting for you here once again!
