Tropical Retreat Full of Monkeys, Sloths & Toucans

No need to venture outside of your Luxury Setting to encounter Beautiful Nature & Unbelievable Wildlife

If you are looking for a tropical retreat full of exotic wildlife but still want to remain in the comfort and modernity of a luxury villa rental, then come and see this luxury villa located just moments from Manuel Antonio National Park in Costa Rica. You will find many species of birds such as toucans, parrots, falcons, scarlet macaws, butterflies, most likely all 3 species of monkeys in the area, and maybe even 2-toed or 3-toed sloths, a plethora of reptiles, and so much more right in your very own backyard, the jungle! You will not need to venture outside of your luxury setting to encounter beautiful nature and unbelievable wildlife. The views from here are extraordinary, as you peer into the lush jungle. You can even see the beautiful mountain range in the distance adding interest to the already intriguing rainforest view.

With enormous windows on all 3 floors of this luxury villa, there is a never ending view of exotic plant life and wildlife to appreciate. From the balcony you and your vacation crew are bound to sight a wide variety of animals, maybe even more than in the national park! The swimming pool is the perfect spot to get some sun, read in the shade with a beverage and gather for fun during the day time and the night time. Pool loungers abound, so you can really relax, enjoying your vacation to its fullest potential.

Within the villa, you will find elements of luxury include fine hardwoods and modern amenities. The open floor plan will accommodate the space needs of you and your guests easily. Events are encouraged, plus children and the elderly will be comfortable here as well. Luxury abounds within your villa offering comfortable couches, incredible tropical views through gigantic windows on every level, AC and fans, cable/satellite TV, stereo, a radio, CD player, DVD player, and even video library, book library for children and adults, wireless internet (Wi-Fi), telephone, and a fax in case work calls while you are away in paradise.

At the dining table, you can gather for a delicious feast made from fresh ingredients found at the local market. Amenities in the full kitchen include a blender, coffee maker, dishwasher, oven, stove, toaster, microwave, ice maker, refrigerator, freezer, cooking utensils, dishes, pantry items, and bottled water. We will make your stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible!

A convenient bath lies off of the kitchen and living area, so does the garage and additional parking; a security system, activities/restaurant guide, maps, and concierge are all included in this villa rental. Take a walk to visit the close by shopping, bars and restaurants, coffee shops, and much more for the vacation of a lifetime in beautiful Costa Rica.

Located only a few minutes, a short drive or ride from the incredible beaches, wildlife, and biodiversity of Manuel Antonio National Park, you are perfectly located here to take full advantage of your vacation in tropical paradise. Nearby you will always find extreme views of the Pacific that this unique area uniquely offers.

Sleeping up to 10 guests on 3 separate floors with 2 master bedrooms that feature king size beds, en-suite bathrooms, and spectacular views while the third bedroom has 2 king beds and a twin – great for a family or group of friends. The views from all 3 bedrooms are incredible as you stare out onto the tree canopy below with an abundant amount of wildlife. All rooms are equipped with AC and ceiling fans for ultimate climate control.

The house was exactly as advertised. There was 10 of us and we had plenty of room to spread out and we were all very comfortable. The house is well stocked with everything you need and a ton of extras. Mefi was fantastic. You can count on him responding to you within 10 minutes or less. He made all our travel arrangements, we decided not to rent a car and I think that turned out to be a good decision. You can take a taxi anywhere in the area for less than a rental car and we never waited more than 10 minutes for our ride to show up. Mefi also helped with tours and recommended restaurants and shopping. His recommendations were the best! Jessica was so nice and she did a fantastic job cleaning the house everyday, doing our laundry, etc. She went above and beyond each and every day. One night we had Chef Javier and Kathy cook for us and it was one of the best meals we had. They are a great team and I would highly recommend them. The local market was a 1 minute walk from the house and they carried everything we needed from meat, eggs, cereal, snacks and drinks including alcohol (they take credit/debit cards). There is a restaurant next to the market named "Gallo Pinto" one morning we had breakfast there and we were not disappointed. The monkeys came through every morning and evening, it was so much fun watching them. Every room in the house had a view and could see monkey's, birds, iguanas just to name a few. One day a monkey got into the pool. The birds are so colorful, the Toucans, Macaws, Humming birds and so many others. The iguanas were always in the trees and fun to watch too. We didn't see any sloth's at the house, but go down to the beach (5 minutes away) in the evening and they are hanging everywhere. This was one of those vacations that we wished we could stay longer. Costa Ricans are very nice and happy people, not once did we hear anyone argue, raise their voice or get mad. No road rage, if a car cuts you off they don't look at it as cutting you off they look at it as driving. They use their horns to communicate, always waving, smiling and very courteous. We walked day and night and never once felt unsafe. The pictures we came home with are post card worthy. Wonderful house and country! Everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime. I would recommend the pool be a tad warmer but we still swam and had fun. If you rent this house you will not be disappointed

Everything We Needed

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Luz. The place is large and roomy, and the jungle is your backyard. We saw a few white faced monkeys and large iguanas in the trees, and the monkeys even jumped onto the pool deck one day. It is hot and humid in CR, but the AC works well. Mefi the concierge was great, and helped us coordinate several activities. We definitely recommend staying here.

Wildlife, Waves, and Waterfalls!

Casa Luz was an amazing property! Our party of 7 thoroughly enjoyed our stay, there was plenty of room for all of us to spread out, with 3 decks and 4 bathrooms, and beautiful spaces both inside and outside. It was an easy walk into town, up the hill and through the town of Manuel Antonio, and there was a grocery store, Super Joseth, just a few minutes walk away. Mefi was professional and very helpful in setting us up with a fantastic rafting trip and coordinated a delicious meal cooked in the house by Desiree. We loved our time at Casa Luz, and would highly recommend! Hope we can return one day!

Hi Donna,We truly appreciate your great review of your recent stay at our lovely Casa Luz and thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience. Mefi always goes above and beyond to make sure that you have a memorable stay and Chef Desiree, is one of the best in town.Thank you for staying with us and we hope to see you again,Much appreciated,DonOwner, CR Vacation Properties

Wonderful space for two families!

Our families - four parents and four kids ranging I age from 8 to 12 - had an amazing stay in this house. It had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked, the downstairs was a perfect kids’ hangout, there was a little market only a block away, and we saw monkeys and toucans from the pool! I would highly recommend this house, thank you for a wonderful time!

Hi Ariel,We gratefully appreciate the review of your recent stay at our very popular Casa Luz and we are excited to hear that you and your family had a memorable stay.Thank you for staying with us and we hope to host you again in the futurePura Vida,Don,Founder, CR Vacation Properties

Fantastic Home And Experience

We would highly recommend this property. We stayed here with my parents and our 3 children ages 5, 5 and 8. The location was fantastic. We enjoyed being in the jungle with proximity to the beaches and Manuel Antonio. The concierge, Mefi, truly exceeded our expectations in the help he provided with travel, excursions and anything that popped up. He took all the stress of planning and logistics which we really appreciated.

Nice Property As Described!

This was a great property and as described with an amazing jungle view. It was clean and in good condition. Our concierge Mefi was always available by text or phone to help with everything. The pool was great to have to cool off! We saw a sloth on the big tree on the first day. We may have been lucky as we didn't see it the rest of the days. We saw white faced monkeys and could hear the howlers but never saw them. The property is gated-in with a couple other houses, one of which is another rental ("monkey village", I believe). The overall neighborhood is residential and mixed. In the daytime it appears very safe but at night we were not comfortable walking back from the main road. The corner store (a small Super Joseth) is very close by, like 1 minute walk and has all the basics including cereal, fruit, milk, baked goods, meat, dry goods, etc. Prices seemed good, not overpriced. for example a quart/litre of milk was $1 (~600 colones). They take credit cards too. We did not rent a car on this trip and instead took taxis locally. Mefi arranged taxis whenever we needed for us but I got the business card from our taxi driver Carlos and we were able to call him whenever we needed to go anywhere or get picked up anywhere and he would come in about 10 minutes. Taxis here do not use the meters (which is not proper from what I understand) but they charge 5000 colones (or $10) or less to go anywhere in the area. At times we wondered if we should have rented a car but in the end we were happy with our decision as we didn't have to worry about parking and navigation. We walked to the main road and ate lunch one day at the small Soda Angel restaurant - it was low priced and very good and we would recommend it.

The house was great and we would recommend it especially for families.

Hola Kleem,Thank you for taking the time to generate such a thorough review of your recent stay at our Villa. Pleased to hear that your group enjoyed the Villa, wildlife and that your Cocnierge, Mefi, was able to assist in making your trip memorable and stress free.Thank you for staying with us and we hope to see you again,Pura VidaDon

Stay Here!

We loved every second in this rental. It's situated in the jungle but has quick access to a great market as well as our very favorite beaches. The house and property are immaculate, well-supplied, and the property manager, Mefi, was top notch. We would come back to this property any time and plan to do so!

We are glad to hear you guys have a memorable stay, please keep us in mind for future travels!

Excellent Vacation Home In A Lush Setting

Stunning house and surroundings. Everything is as depicted and better. A few highlights include well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, great housekeeping service, professional and friendly concierge, monkeys and birds in the surrounding trees, proximity to beach and towns (Manuel Antonio and Quepos), no construction in the vicinity right now (therefore quiet), A/C in all bedrooms, ceiling fan in 2 bedrooms, awesome pool, pool/beach towels provided.

Only minor issue I can think of - heavily chlorinated pool, so if you’re traveling with little ones don’t forget their goggles. Ours had some irritated eyes after swimming without goggles.

Sarah, thank you very much for your kind comments, we will double check with the pool guy about the chlorine levels.

A Tropical Monkey Paradise

If I could give a 10 I would!! This place was exactly what they advertised if not better. The home was gorgeous and perfect when we arrived. Mefi and his team were amazing. From emails before our trip, pickup and drop off at the airport, and everything in between. The activities Mefi arranged were top knotch and amazing. To recap, Stay and let Mefi do his job and you will have what our family calls one of the best vacations ever!!

Thanks Mefi and Team!!

Oh and the Monkeys, sloths and dog size iguana were every where. Monkeys in the pool and on the patio. We have pictures to prove it.

Also my daughter wants me to make sure the friendly cat is well taken care of. She has already requested updates. LOL

Hola Kiersten,We truly appreciate your 10 star review and the generous comments about one of our top Concierge's Mefi and our team. We are delighted to hear that you had such a magical and memorable vacation.Hopefully, we will see you again on a return visit.Much appreciated,Don
