Lovely place to stay. Open living was fun. Saw lots of monkeys, they found the bin one night unfortunately. A sloth moved into one of the trees one night too. Beautiful experience. Thank you

Best place to stay I've had on all my trips! The open air allows you to truly experience nature. We saw capuchins several times, and they passed very close by. Howler monkeys greeted us twice with their cries, macaws fly over the area, and raccoons and coatis roam around... in short, it's the full package! 😀 The entire team is very attentive and provides exceptional service. This was our first family trip with 5- and 9-year-olds, and the bar is very high after this place.

What an incredible place. We saw monkeys (different types!) daily, had multiple sloth sightings including a day where we saw 2 at the same time, and felt like we were in the jungle. Scott and Wai were so responsive and we had a wonderful time.

We had a great stay in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. The home’s open-air upstairs living area made it feel like you were right in the jungle—such a beautiful and unique experience. We loved seeing monkeys and hearing the howler monkeys right from the house. Downstairs had two comfortable bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, plus a private pool that was perfect for relaxing. Carlos was a great host, and Wai, the on-site concierge, was wonderful. He welcomed us, helped book our fishing trip, Manuel Antonio National Park tour, and an in-house chef, and was very easy to reach. He even came by to say goodbye the morning we left, which was a really nice touch. The home is open to nature, so you do get a true jungle experience. The house was cleaned daily, and the location was excellent—close to the beach, restaurants, and everything we wanted to do. Overall, a really unique and memorable stay—we would definitely come back.

La Casa Roja was absolutely amazing! The open air living space was so neat and exactly how it was described. We saw monkeys, sloths, and birds almost every day. The house was spacious and comfortable and close to the beach and restaurants. Wai, the concierge, was super helpful in settling up excursions and available to answer questions and give recommendations. Housekeeping kept the place tidy and even washed clothes for us. I would recommend this house to anyone visiting the Antonio Miguel area.

Casa de Roja was amazing. The location was perfect with just a short walk up the hill to restaurants. Wai, the concierge was amazingly helpful and knowledgeable about all the things. He had our itinerary all set up before we even arrived. The maid service was amazing with daily laundry care and house keeping. The wildlife was incredible. We can’t wait to go back !

Casa Roja is amazing! Everything about it exceeded my expectations (which were already pretty high). The house is beautiful and so well appreciated. Wai, the concierge, is so incredibly helpful and responsive. If you have any questions whatsoever, he’s there to help. And Eyelin, who was super sweet, comes every day to clean. Plus, she did our laundry for us. The best part was the monkeys! I loved just sitting in the living room and watching the monkeys every day. The house is also very near the beach and the park. I can’t recommend this place enough!

The house is amazing. Immersed in nature and open to the world. The staff was incredible. They took good care of us and made sure we were comfortable. We saw more wildlife from our kitchen than we did on a few of our tours. Would definitely go back. Scott was responsive and helpful whenever needed. I would definitely book with him again.
