A genuinely amazing house - we loved it. Nice pool, very private, quiet etc. Great location about 10 minutes from Quepos in one direction and 10 minutes to Manuel Antonio Park in the other direction. It is best to have four-wheel drive for the driveway and access road. The concierge service that handled everything was very professional, efficient and responsive, and the staff were all extremely nice and helpful.

Very beautiful villa, my family and I had a great time! Andrey our concierge was very responsive, kind and helpful. The hill to get to the house is steep but with a good car you should have no problems. Overall really enjoyed our stay here(:

What a beautiful property! This house was perfect for our family of four during our stay. The pool is perfect for early morning swims as the shallow side is shaded for a large portion of the morning. We really enjoyed the additional outside seating and the privacy of the back area. We loved the house layout - everyone could have privacy when needed. We had squirrel monkeys visit on our first morning and macaws and toucans each day during our stay. Cute, small lizards like to hang on the windows outside at night also. It was all lovely! Important to remember that you are in a setting that does have plenty of other wildlife, so don’t be surprised if small insects inevitably find their way inside. It’s part of the fun. The driveway is definitely an adventure to get up but easy once you get the hang of it. Andrey our concierge was so kind and welcoming. He made the check in process so easy. We would definitely stay again.

Beautiful place, private space with jungle views, very clean and comfortable. Saw a variety of wildlife including iguanas, parrots, and geckos! Minor creature comfort items were lacking considering the beauty of the home and property: the kitchen was under equipped, tech (e.g., smart TV), filter drinking water supply from fridge is slow, lots of keys to manage to access the home. Access to the house is intense. Steep roads and driveway. Takes a couple of times to get the hang of it. Something to be aware of, particularly if arriving after dark.

Our stay here was superb! The location is so centrally located and the pool (a shallow one and a deeper one) was a hit. We especially like the shallow option for our younger children to play in. It backs right up to jungle and we saw monkeys, iguanas and macaws daily. The concierges, Hazel and Andrey, were incredibly helpful. They answered all of our questions promptly and made it effortless in booking excursions, scheduling the rental car and providing needed information about the area. We would love to come again!

House was great. Little tricky to find using Google maps but the host was quick to respond and help with directions. Excellent location to enjoy Quepos. As other people mentioned it was helpful to have 4wheel drive. Wonderful place to stay for my friends and I on our fishing vacation.

The house is as grand as the photos which don’t even do it justice. The hill is no joke, you need 4WD. Really enjoyed the pool and even saw monkeys, macaws and toucans! The beds are quite uncomfortable and I don’t recommend staying with more than 4 adults/2 couples. The twin beds would be fine for children but you have to walk through that room and the shared bathroom to get to the 2nd bedroom which is too awkward for adults, even when they’re family!

The home itself is spectacular. Clean, pristine, big rooms with natural light. So much space, so private, peaceful and tranquil. Toucans, iguanas, macaws, monkeys etc. It is paradise. The drive up from the main road isn't that big of a deal. It takes 5 minutes of slow & cautious driving, then you're in the middle of everything. The staff are amazing. When you rent this Airbnb, you don't just get keys to a villa. You get a team. They rented us a car, booked us excursions ie white water rafting and guided Manuel Antonio National Park tour, a private chef for dinner (#Chef by Chris) and they were always responsive for additional questions. This is so much more than an Airbnb. You'll have the privacy but when needed the staff are just incredible -- they were always available, helping to make our stay extra special

We had a fantastic stay! The home was absolutely beautiful, just as described in the listing. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, and the beds were super comfortable. The pool was a highlight, offering stunning views that made it hard to leave! The concierge team was excellent. very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. One of the most memorable moments was watching monkeys play around the property; such a unique and special experience! The area is peaceful and perfect for relaxing. The only challenge we had was getting our rental car up the steep hill to the property. We didn’t have a 4x4, so it was a bit tricky. Definitely recommend following their advice and renting a 4x4 vehicle. Overall, we loved our stay and would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with amazing views and a touch of adventure.
