Luxury Tropical Balinese Inspired Home in the Manuel Antonio Jungle

Nestled in a tranquil neighborhood just 10 minutes from the Manuel Antonio National Park, Villa Michelina offers privacy, jungle views, and all the comforts of a luxurious retreat. Perfect for nature lovers and those seeking peace, the spacious terrace and pool deck provide ample space to soak up the sun, listen to the soothing sounds of a nearby creek and waterfall, and spot wildlife like monkeys, sloths, and birds. Experience the perfect blend of relaxation and nature in our beautiful home! You will not want to leave.

Villa Michelina offers convenient location in the middle of nature and yet close to beaches, the famous Manuel Antonio National Park, a world-class marina, health-care facilities, and endless activities for everyone, from guided nature hikes to ziplines, sport fishing white water rafting, surfing lessons and many other exciting adventures.

Villa Michelina boasts spacious rooms, with lots of light from high ceilings and windows, decorated with countless Balinese details and modern amenities.
The main floor has a spacious living area and a kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and custom-made wooden cabinets.

The master suite, located just off the main living area, features a massive Indonesian antique headboard and a bathroom in marble stone surface finishes furthermore easy access to the private terrace and down to the central pool and patio.

The other two bedrooms are located on the other side of the main living area and are accessed down the stairs from the living. The two rooms share an appointed bathroom.

The expansive pool features a 2 ft wading pool above which flows into the main pool. Perfect for those looking just to stay cool! For those looking to connect with nature, the pool deck features gorgeous jungle views, wildlife sightseeing and the peaceful sound of a year-round creek that meanders right below from the property, for a unique atmosphere of relaxation.

This is not just an average rental villa. It's also our home away from home therefore we keep it in the best condition!

Most of our guests choose to rent a vehicle during their stay. While taxis are plentiful and available, having a rental car is often a more economical and practical approach to exploring the local area. We recommend utilizing a 4×4 vehicle to access the house and explore the off the beaten paths and bumpy Costa Rican roads. Our Concierge can assist in setting up any car rental services and can have the car delivered to you.

Housekeeping service is provided every other day with the exception of Sunday's and Costa Rican holidays.

While the home is equipped with private well water (not drinkable), the refrigerator includes a filter to ensure the water is safe for drinking.

We truly enjoyed this property and the nature around the yard was amazing. We had monkeys, toucans, lots of other birds and a huge iguana. The only negative was not having access to a washer and dryer, which we missed seeing in the description. Prop manager was excellent

amazing!!

Villa Michelina was incredible. The pool and back deck alone were worth the price - we sat out there and watched birds all day. Swam and watched birds - so amazing. The house is stunning. Only suggestions are that it could use a few more coffee mugs - only 3 and we were 4 people. And some of the rooms had quite a few bugs bc doors didn't fully seal, but was very minor compared to the overall wonderful stay!

Amazing Home & Location

The pictures do not do this amazing villa justice. This was such a luxurious home that made us feel like we were alone in the middle of the rain forest. We loved hanging by the pool, playing games in the large family room / dining area, and there was plenty of space for the kids to spend time on their own in their separate rooms. We did get to see monkeys swinging among trees and playing in the pool water, iguanas, many beautiful birds, etc. The location is SO close to all that Quepos and Manuel Antonio have to offer - what a memorable trip!

Gorgeous house tucked into the hills

Stayed in Quepos in June 2023. The house was hard to access (VERY hard by American standards), and 4X4 is necessary, but when we arrived… so gorgeous! It was like a Balinese mansion rising from the jungle. The pool was perfect for hot days, and toucans and birds were flitting about the backyard our entire stay. The staff were incredibly helpful as well. Can’t recommend enough!

This villa has seen better days

The location & property are very special. Unfortunately the age of the villa is showing. The villa is not 100% sealed resulting in lizard poop inside. Shower water is unpredictable & sometimes water just start flowing. The pool area is guarded by the house iguana which makes its business on by the pool every day. Yuck!

Family Stay

We enjoyed the house. It was well appointed and in a central location between Quepos and MA. The driveway was no joke, but definitely do-able with a 4 wheel drive. Very comfortable home and pool/outside areas. We were. a little disappointed because the description on VRBO said that there was a trail down to the river and waterfall below the house. There was no trail and we were told to go to the bridge we crossed along the way to the house and try to follow the river, but to be careful, etc.... Would be better to not state in the description of the house that this was even a possibility. We are adventurers and chose the house because of this location/proximity to a trail & waterfall. We did enjoy our stay and the hosts were extremely hospitable and helpful. The concierge services offered are also phenomenal.

Unique and special home

My family of 6 (17yoB, 15yoG, 13yoG, 9yoG) had a wonderful stay. The location is really special up and down some steep roads (4x4 required!) but this is a beautiful home up in the rain forest. Morning coffee out on the patio was my favorite. Some days were limited activity in the forest (probably due to rain) but other days (less rain) were super active with birds and monkeys. Both were great! We had some great pool time and the kitchen was well set up as it was easier (and more affordable) to make it at home! Andrey was very helpful re: access and excursions including remembering my daughter is Celiac when booking an excursion with food!

Amazing, peaceful experience. Loved it. Exactly the remote jungle experience we wanted. Fell asleep at night listening to the sounds of the jungle. My wife and our fours kids will always have fond memories of this property. We stayed a week. A note about the road conditions: we had a Toyota Rush with two wheel drive automatic transmission. It was was fine getting to and from the house. I can see how a 4x4 would be better, but from our experience a 4x4 was not necessary. Great time.

Amazing property nestled in natural setting

Beautiful comfortable completely private property well equipped for relaxing, swimming, cooking and sleeping. Wildlife abounds too! The property manager, Mariana, took very good care of us. Very close to heart of Manuel Antonio that can be accessed by foot if in good shape and in 5-10 minutes by car. The driveway, and the road leading up to the house are not for the faint hearted. Be prepared to use your 4x4 to its fullest and to go through many potholes on the road in out of the neighborhood. Also, the house is supplied by well water-we were told to use bottled water. We loved the area, the house and the warmth of the Costa Rican people. Thank you.

Very neat, spacious home with privacy

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house was warm and inviting and had plenty of room for our family of 5. A heads up tho, the second and third bedrooms can only be accessed from the outside so something to consider if you have young children. It’s great for people wanting lots of privacy however. We all enjoyed the pool a lot. The house was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. There would be some critters that would get in at night but that’s to be expected when you’re in the middle of the rain forest. We weren’t fortunate enough to see monkeys but we did enjoy watching a trio of parrots fly over every day. Hazel made the check-in and out process really easy and she was available for anything we needed. Definitely recommend this property!

Best EVER

There is really no need to look anywhere further. This house was a dream come true. Only four of us and was way too big for our needs but for the price we couldn’t beat it. Our own private pool. All beds comfortable. Two king beds in two separate rooms. Felt like you were truly in the jungle. Monkeys on our porch while we swim. From the moment we walked in the house we were totally taken care of by the staff. If we had one issue come up it was literally resolved within 10 minutes. We arrived here late one night without food and our gal who met us there had food delivered to our house within 30 minutes. I mean seriously could not have dropped up a better place. We cannot wait to come back!!’

Villa Michelina is a must stay in Manuel Antonio!

Our family had an incredible stay at Villa Michelina. The property is bigger and more beautiful than the pictures show. It offered privacy within minutes of all the beaches, restaurants and attractions. We also enjoyed cooking in the spacious kitchen. The kids spent hours playing in the pool and looking for wildlife in the backyard. During our stay, we were visited by a family of capuchin monkeys, iguanas, toucans, hummingbirds and many other birds. On our last day, a huge group of squirrel monkeys were in the area and some came onto the back patio with us. Having wildlife so close to us was a highlight of our trip. Mariana, Jorge and the cleaning staff were also amazing and helped us arrange everything we needed, including grocery orders and restaurant recommendations. As others have said, there is a steep driveway but it was part of our adventure! If we return to Manuel Antonio, we will definitely stay at Villa Michelina! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Wonderful villa!

This is an absolutely wonderful villa, the photos do not do it justice! It was the perfect amount of space to make our holiday relaxing for our family of five. The separation between the primary bedroom and other two is great for families with older kids, while the locks on all the doors with pool access is a thoughtful gesture for those with younger kids. Ours are in the middle and they absolutely LOVED this house and having their own quarters. The high ceilings make it feel very grand and spacious. The housekeeping team take fantastic care of the property and its guests - the towels or laundry mentioned in previous reviews was a non-issue for us thanks to them. Check in and out was a breeze and concierge was available for any of our needs; overall a very hospitable team! The driveway is definitely a challenge but not an issue with the right car. We loved the location in that it was away from the hustle and bustle of the main strip but still only a few minutes away from it when we wanted - same for the beaches. It was amazing being nestled in the forest and visited by the wildlife, including a monkey! Such a lovely stay and experience, would highly recommend!

Jungle Experience

Pros: - Wonderful customer service! The host and Raimund were so helpful and responded right away to questions/concerns. - Extremely spacious. - They provided cleaners (included in the cost) every other day which was really nice. They also did laundry for us if we left a tip. - The pool area was beautiful. - It is a true “jungle” experience! - Great AC! - Alarm system on home which made us feel extra safe (although it felt very safe anyways) Cons: - The location indicator on the listing is way off. One of the main reasons we booked this house is because we thought it was walking distance to bars and restaurants in Manuel Antonio however, it was not walking distance whatsoever for an average person. We would have never booked this place if we knew the true location. It was in the “middle of nowhere” about 8 minutes from the top of the hill in MA, but it is either straight down or straight up so walking would be so very difficult especially if you are not use to all the heat. - The way the house is built (maybe it’s the Indonesian style?) has a gap to the outdoors between the roof and walls (which they did try to patch with boards and it helped but did not solve 100%) which allowed more than average bugs and critters into the home(small lizards, frogs, and we even had a bat fly in our first night). - the interior is a bit dated, though it’s unique and of high quality furnishings and decor -- Some of kitchen stuff was very poor quality

Very Unique House

As the other reviews all stated, you definitely need a 4x4 to navigate the roads getting to the house. Some of the roads are not paved and have been washed out that have very deep pot holes- take full insurance out on your rental car!!! The house itself is very unique, sitting below the driveway landing on the hill with beautiful views of the rain forest. We loved floating in the pool enjoying the natural setting. There are many unusual art pieces, custom furniture, and special additions to the house, but the house is a bit dated, although nothing that would prevent staying here. The kitchen appearance is nice, but the kitchen cooking equipment is well below standards for this type of property (old pans, pots, and limited extras one comes to expect in a VRBO). We did not see monkeys during our week, but we did see toucans, parrots and many butterflies. Inside the house we experienced a scorpion in the bedroom, an iguana, a huge spider and a bat that left droppings over the furniture and counters all week (I guess this is the norm for Costa Rica). The Conceirge, Andres, was awesome and very helpful- at all hours and even coming through for us with last minute plans. We stayed the end of July/beginning of August and it rained every day. Only 2 of the days were a washout where tour plans had to be cancelled, otherwise, the rain was not a deterrent for us. One request for the owner/property management company- why not let the renters use the washer/dryer that is on premise? There is nowhere to hang wet towels, bathing suits, clothes (outside not an option because of the frequent rain)…we found ourselves lacking dry towels all week and clothes that took days to dry out. At the minimum, we would have appreciated being able to throw our wet gear into a dryer. I gave the review 4 stars because of the kitchen & washer/dryer limitations, but otherwise, this is a wonderful house giving my family, a very unique experience. Much appreciated and hope you will have us back one day!
