Our stay at Casa Alta Vista was truly amazing! 10 of us( two families traveling together with older children) shared this lovely space which comfortably accommodated us. The views from the pool area and the rooftop were breathtaking, The location of the house was perfect for us, close to restaurants and beaches, and especially nice to have the convenience of the grocery store close by. Our concierge Shiona was amazing, she worked with us to set up an unforgettable trip including zip lining, deep sea fishing, catamaran, waterfall and jungle tours. Our personal favorite was having Chef Ivan come and cook a gourmet meal at the house on New Years day...best meal of the trip! Everyone associated with the property that we met, went out of their way to help us feel welcome, comfortable , and safe. I would highly recommend this property, and hope to return again in the future!

We had such a great time at Casa Alta Vista that we are already planning our next visit. Comfort and great a location made our vacation really special. Another great incentive is getting a 10% off in all your grocery shopping including alcohol 🙂 The kitchen at this villa is spectacular and very spacious.



Shiona our personal concierge and vacation coordinator was beyond amazing, she took real good care of us. We didn't have to move a finger, because we booked all tours and activities through her which made our life way easier. We have a couple of young teenagers and they loved the adventures that Shiona sent them on.



Thanks to Shiona and all the staff at CR Vacation Properties for creating an unforgettable vacation for our family. Hope to see you guys soon

This was our first trip to Costa Rica. Manuel Antonio is a beautiful place and Casa Alta Vista makes it even better. There was plenty of room for 10 adults to hang out. We enjoyed the pool almost every day and the views are spectacular! Having the market and restaurants close by was a definite plus. All of the staff were super helpful and Shiona went above and beyond. She helped plan all our excursions, get drivers and made dinner reservations - plus she even decorated for my birthday! We will definitely be back. Thank you for making my 40th birthday one to remember!

From the beginning the service was impeccable, the concierge was so accommodating for my group. We arrived early and needed a transport separate from the rest of our group. She replied quickly and tended to our needs immediately. All services we used were amazing. From the maintenance and cleaning, concierge and security. The property was absolutely gorgeous. All excursions were very well-priced and perfectly thought out for our group. I would go back in a heartbeat!

The property is stunning. From the views, to the amenities within the house and beyond. Five bedrooms, four bathrooms and plenty of living space. The pool area is perfect and equipped with a bar area, grill, and tv. I highly recommend staying at this house if you are staying in the Manuel Antonio area of Costa Rica. There is a fully equipped supermarket right around the corner if you want to make your own food, or just need snacks and drinks. The house is close to all the restaurants, bars, and shops in the area, all within walking distance. There are many beautiful beaches only about 10 minutes away by taxi. The house is a must!

This was one of my best trips! The house, location and staff were beyond wonderful. The house is very spacious and very close to restaurants, a supermarket and other attractions. The staff was extremely helpful with everything, from answering general questions promptly to booking excursions and activities for our group. The pool, the views, amenities, etc. made our experience amazing. Shiona gets 10 stars for being so awesome 🙂

We had a party of 6 staying at Casa Alta Vista, and it was perfect! It was a great jump off spot for any excursions, and fishing trips that we did. It was also ideal for those afternoons when we didn't have anything else planned and wanted to lounge out by the pool. The house has amazing views from just about every window, a full 180 degree view of the pacific from the pool, and a breathtaking 360 degree view from the porch on the top of the house. Each bedroom was more than adequately cooled with it's own air conditioner, and the bathrooms were comfortable, with plenty of hot water.



A special thanks to Shiona, who was our concierge who lined everything up for us, and more! She was great to work with, and had many of our excursions lined up before we got there. She also was very helpful when we needed something spur of the moment, like a large car to accommodate everyone, or a restaurant suggestion.



The location was ideal. About halfway between Quepos, and the Manuel Antonio National Park. Many restaurants were within a 5 minute walk. There's also an excellent grocery store right at the end of the block, that we received a discount at for staying at Casa Alta Vista!



I would definitely recommend this house for a large group of people coming down!

We spent a week at Casa Alta Vista and really enjoyed our experience. There was plenty of room for our party of 8. Loved the food and the sunsets by the pool. Be aware that the hot tub isn’t hot but the jets still felt great after a day of adventure. Shiona is very helpful and gave us great ideas for tours and restaurants. Two thumbs up!

Our group had a great time in Costa Rica and at Casa Alta Vista. The house was more than large enough for our 8 adults. We loved the pool area and ate outside in the evening most nights...lots of cooking on the grill. We enjoyed our tours and activities along with all of the people we interacted with. The people of Costa Rica proved to be easy going and easy to work with. I would highly recommend a vacation there.

We loved our stay at Casa Alta Vista in Manuel Antonio! We were a party of three couples, no kids, who had the pleasure of renting out the house in April 2019. Shiona’s assistance with planning everything was invaluable; from transportation at the airport, excursions, to expectations after arriving, everything was excellent. Shiona went on holiday and handed things off to Camilo, who was the first coordinator we met in person. What a great presence he was for our vacation! Anything needed he took care of with friendly professionalism. Camilo had plans for his own holiday, so Sabrina stepped in and continued with the excellent customer service. The first class concierge team definitely exceeded our expectations.



The house was amazing, just what we needed. For six of us, we were more than comfortable with the amount of space provided. The scenery is so relaxing that sitting by the pool was a joy, we spent hours outside enjoying the beautiful property. Water pressure and balancing the water temperature in some of the rooms presented a slight challenge but it wasn’t anything major. The kitchen was well stocked and we had no need to call for any maintenance the entire week. Casa Alta Vista is part of a gated group of three houses; one where the owner lives and he rents out the other two as vacation homes. There is plenty of privacy. The maid service was excellent, efficient, prompt and never obtrusive while we were there. The cleaning service really added to the relaxation of our vacation.



Something fun, very fun…. the owner has two cute Pugs, Romeo and Juliet. They were an unexpected treat for all of us! They greeted us when we arrived with such a friendly joy, we could tell they are lovers of people. They are well trained, we were there a week and never saw either one with bad manners, lovely to have around.



The Rainmaker Night Tour, the Catamaran Tour, the Vacation Buggy Waterfall & Jungle Tour and the Spice Farm tour were all worth the money. Plenty of authentic cuisine enhanced the excursions and left us all with a great love of the food in Costa Rica.The guides were extremely knowledgeable with outgoing personalities. We had two meals prepared by Chef Alejandro, which Shiona and Camilo arranged for us. After a long day of traveling, lunch with Chef Alejandro was amazing! Chef Alejandro also prepared a beautiful dinner for us, I highly recommend him for your visit. It was a fantastic trip, I highly recommend Casa Alta Vista!
