Fantastic Stay in Manual Antonio

We had an amazing time in Costa Rica and this house played a huge part in it. It was absolutely magical with a beautiful view and so many amazing animals on property. We also were taken care of so well by Kimberly. She helped us arrange our excursions and transportation and much more. She made such a difference and we always enjoyed talking to her as well. Rodrigo, the groundskeeper also took great care of us and the property. We so appreciated him coming to get us when he saw an animal such as a sloth or toucan that he knew we would want to see!

The best vacation spot in Costa Rica

Where to start? I honestly can't describe the single best aspect of our stay at Casa Bella Vista! There are too many name! The views surrounding the property take one's breath away. Seriously the best views in Manuel Antonio! The wildlife that is visible on the property included sloths, all kinds of monkeys and birds. The property is well maintained by the groundkeeper and the housekeeper. The house is in pristine condition. Every need was taken care of. The house manager is the most friendly, patient and truly kind person who does everything in her power to make sure that your vacation goes as planned! This is our second time staying at this property. Although we had a smaller group this visit, I couldn't imagine staying anywhere else in Manuel Antonio. Our family made lifelong memories that we will never forget! Pura Vida!

Most Memorable Family Vacation with Sons and their Girlfriends

The photos in this property do not do it justice. It was absolutely amazing and so clean and inviting. We arranged for three excursions prior to our visit and were able to book several others after we arrived. Kimberly took care of all the details and was very hands-on before and after we arrived. We cannot thank her enough for all she did for us prior to and during our stay. One of our adult sons needed some minor medical attention and Kimberly made sure we received it and even drove us to the urgent care. Everyone involved in maintaining the house and grounds was extremely respectful of our privacy yet attentive to every detail. If you are hoping to see some wildlife, enjoy beautiful views and experience the culture and beauty of Costa Rica, we highly recommend staying in this beautiful home. We have already recommended to several friends and family. We definitely would love to return and stay again at Casa Bella Vista.

Amazing Week at Casa Bella Vista

The house is beautiful, spacious, and exactly as pictured. The bedrooms are cool, clean and comfortable and the beautiful balconies and pool area look out over the jungle and the ocean. When we booked the house we didn't realize that it came with a concierge, Kimberly, so were surprised when she reached out and then proceeded to plan most of our trip. She booked ziplining, ATVs, and a boat tour for our group (2 adults and 5 kids between the ages of 10-15) and she made our trip so much easier by buying groceries ahead of time and having them in the house when we arrived. She was easy to communicate with and very warm and knowledgeable. We also appreciated Patricia, the housekeeper (who did laundry!) and Rodrigo, the caretaker who showed us sloths and agoutis. We were super spoiled and had Chef Renzo come to the house and cook a few dinners. He was incredibly easy to work with, had a huge menu to select from, and made absolutely delicious food. He was able to accommodate our food allergies (celiac disease, lactose-intolerance). The house location is great, with a short walk to the grocery store, restaurants, and a slightly longer walk to the gorgeous beach. It is hilly, so bring your comfy shoes, but so very lovely. We would happily stay here again.

Great Stay at Casa Bella Vista

Our group of 6 had an amazing stay at Casa Bella Vista. Kimberly and the staff were amazing and very helpful during our stay. The pool and the view are amazing. The house is very well-equipped with every kitchen utensil/gadget you could need, floats for the pool, pool/beach towels, and everything was spotless. The staff were efficient, friendly, and took great care of us. There were howler monkeys, squirrel monkeys, white faced monkeys, sloths, scarlet macaws, toucans, and aracaris all around us during our visit. We saw just as much wildlife at the house as we did in the national park. Casa Bella Vista is definitely a perfect place to enjoy the Manuela Antonio area. It’s within walking distance to many restaurants, café, and shops. Also, a short walk to great beaches.

A Dream House

We have been to Costa Rica 4 times,always staying in great places, however this was our favorite time because of this home. The decor, the layout and of course the view are breathtaking. We had sloths in our trees and daily visits from monkeys in the pool area. There's not enough good things I can say about it. The staff is also lovely, and Kimberly the property manager is amazing. She was always available to answer our questions and was very knowledgeable about the country. We can not wait to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Chrisi Harris

I moved to Costa Rica full time after years of traveling/ studying through the summers. I found my home in Manuel Antonio for years. It's the only place in the world I have traveled to that I have to catch my breath after seeing the view again for the first time! It's such a special place from the view, the park, beaches, and of course the monkeys!

I have been fortunate throughout the years to stay at the Casa Bella Vista and proud to represent the owner. I have a passion for my friends, family and guests to have the best possible experience in Costa Rica. I make it a mission to provide a care-free vacation with all details completely handled!

Why they chose this property

This property is perfect for a family or few couples. The spaces are very nice and open, terraces off every bedroom! The pool is perfect and just an amazing place to relax or entertain. It is in walking distance to many restaurants/bars and down to the beach! Location, location!

What makes this property unique

Casa Bella Vista truly is the home to Manuel Antonio's post-card view of the National Park. The infinity pool and roof-top terrace is a spectacular spot to take it all in from the view to nature around you. There is an abundance of animals that love the house too and stick pretty close. Casa Bella Vista is private yet a close minutes walk to the nearby restaurant and bars of Manuel Antonio. It is also in walking distance down to the beach.
