This was a good stay in a nice location. Everything about the house was nice and it was very cool to be visited by wildlife and monkeys daily!

We had a fantastic stay witj our family of 5. The house is bigger than it looks in pictures and had everything we needed. The pool is fabulous, warm and big and great for everyone to enjoy. We couldn't believe the amount of wildlife we saw just in and around the garden. 2 types of monkey, 4 different lizards, lots of different birds and a family of Coatis. Shops and restaurants are all within walking distance too. Thank you Silvia for being a great host.

Sylvia is an excellent host who is very helpful, friendly and responsive. The house is spacious and the terrace is the best spot in the home to relax, unwind and spot animals. The swimming pool is very clean and my kids loved using it. Highly recommend the location for its privacy plus there are many restaurants within walking distance

I've never felt so welcome in a place. Silvia has all my respect and affection. She was an excellent host and I hope to return. ❤️ The house met all my expectations and we were able to see the monkeys and limpets. My whole family left the place very happy. I have no words to thank you Silvia. I hope to meet you again along the way.

We had a great time in Manuel Antonio. the house was spotless and the pool and hammocks were great. Silvia was very responsive to our questions.

Villa la Forresta is a total gem. if you're looking for a quiet(er), private spot near Manuel Antonio this is the place for you. The house is beautiful, the landscaping is lush, the pool cool, and the wildlife comes to you. From the grand second floor balcony we saw capuchins, spider monkeys, macaws, butterflies and the ubiquitous lizards. The property features three cabins. We stayed in the large 3 bedroom house. It should be noted that the third bedroom is semi detached from the main house with a separate entrance and no attached bathroom. This is a plus or minus depending on your situation. Your host Silvia is wonderful and responsive. she was able to provide great suggestions for activities and helped to arrange transport for us north to Jaco. A/C in the bedrooms, WiFi, laundry, and a BBQ area next to the pool completes the amenities. We loved our experience and hope to come back again.
