Amazing home! Clean, spacious and well appointed. Plenty of space for our group of 16. Kids loved the pool, the bunk room and the short walk down to the beach. Wonderful location just out Manuel Antonio National Park. Monkeys in the trees every morning and a sloth at night!Terry was incredibly friendly and accessible and Esteban was extremely helpful in planning our excursions. We had the chef cook for us our first night and it was fantastic!Would definitely stay again!

Amazing Property

I cannot imagine a more beautiful or perfect property for a stay for a large group in the area. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom, the common spaces are large and inviting with unbelievable views. The pools, balconies and outdoor space were enjoyed immensely especially while watching the beautiful birds, two types of monkeys (with babies!) and the sloth that was there in the trees just above us for the majority of our trip. Terry was available and helpful and accommodating and Esteban put together an incredible itinerary of amazing activities for us all to enjoy - he really was absolutely invaluable to us. Thank you Terry, Esteban and chef Karinne for an unforgettable vacation!

Jungle Beach Paradise

Casa Playa y Selva was the perfect house for our group. The property was exactly as described, large modern and impeccably clean. The views of the jungle, animals and beach were spectacular and the walk to the beach was convenient. Terry was very responsive and his team took care of all of our needs. We booked the private chef whose food was delicious and made it so much more convenient than going out for our large group. The stay was true Pura Vida!!

Unbeatable location and spacious accommodations!

Terry and Esteban were both very welcoming and communicative. We had a large group of friends and some children and the house was the perfect balance of privacy and communal space. The pool was lovely and the beach is just a short walk down the hill. The location is great, close enough to walk to several restaurants etc. the home was clean and well maintained. I highly recommend booking!

Pura Vida!

Simply amazing stay in Manuel Antonio. Everything was as advertised. You CAN really hear the waves crashing on the shoreline. And see them as well! A short walk down a driveway and you’re on the beach. Full kitchen to snack on the groceries. Quick dip in the pool while watching the monkey’s swing in the trees just a few feet away. Towels for the pool and towels for the beach! Everything is waiting for you. Terry was responsive when needed, and Esteban helped make the stay as perfect as possible. Couldn’t have asked for a better set up for our family of 7. Having our own chef was priceless! Definitely include it if you plan on staying at Casa Playa! Karine was a gem! Will stay there again should we find ourselves back!
