We purchased Villa Natura in 2016 and spent a year renovating and refurnishing it. The house is in the heart of Manuel Antonio; within walking distance of shops, restaurants, beaches and the National Park. We recently stayed with friends (two couples) and had a wonderful time. With four bedrooms and four bathrooms, the house was perfect for our group of six. In fact, it comfortably accommodates families or up to four couples traveling together. The new pool has been a great addition, providing fabulous views of the Pacific and the morning sunrise. After daily walks or visits to area attractions, we enjoyed cooling off in the pool and lounging on the large deck reading, watching monkeys, birds and other wildlife and spending time with our friends. The deck and verandas on both floors provide ample space to be outdoors in the shade any time of day, even during a cool refreshing rain. The kitchen is fully furnished with new appliances. We often fixed breakfast and/or lunch and an occasional dinner. With so much to do around the area, we were often too tired by late afternoon to fix another meal and found the selection of great restaurants nearby too tempting to resist.



Having now traveled extensively in Costa Rica, we love the Manuel Antonio area the most. We tell friends the area is perfect for a one or two week vacation. The local people are wonderful and very welcoming. The expense of renting a car is unnecessary due to the availability of taxis, buses and pick up service offered by tour operators. We have found that many of the activities and tours offered in Costa Rica are available in this area. It is as great an area for seeing monkeys, sloths, Scarlet Macaws and many other birds and animals as any we’ve found in the country.



We look forward to our next visit to Villa Natura and Manuel Antonio.

What else can you ask for. You won't be disappointed and Mefi (Property Concierge) will make sure you experience the best of Manuel Antonio!

The house is incredibly functional, with everything you need to feel like you're at home. Most importantly it's beautiful incredibly well divided with great open spaces and private spaces, and a beautiful deck to enjoy the views and swimming in the pool. We saw some of the most amount of our wildlife just relaxing by the pool. The staff kept the house immaculate with Febe's work, and our concierge Mefi did a great job assisting our every need.

We had a lovely two week stay in this modern villa, which was perfect for a family vacation. The kids slept downstairs and my husband and I had the beautiful master suite on the main floor. The pool was a big hit with everyone. The views are magnificent and the location is central to restaurants, shopping and walking to the beach. It is quite hilly, so the cheap and dependable public transportation is quite useful. The property is well maintained. The kitchen was lovely to cook in and we often bought fresh fish and vegetables at markets which were great on the grill. The staff was delightful and very accommodating. Services included cleaning, laundry, transportation, excursions and anything else we needed. I highly recommend this property and plan on booking it again myself!

This house was awesome for my family and me. With two small kids, we had our own space and the oldest loved the pool and waterfall. It was clean and well maintained and the kitchen is pretty well stocked with all the utensils and appliances you need to cook for the whole family. It's walking distance to two different beaches, and if you don't feel like walking a mile or so, the public transport bus comes every 20 minutes and takes you right there. We stayed for 2 weeks and were able to really settle in and live comfortably. Will definitely go back!

When my wife and I learned about Villa Natura nested on the hilltop right in the heart of Manuel Antonio and walking distance to everywhere, offering a personal concierge and vacation coordinator who can arrange excursions, activities and even chef services we jumped at the chance to be one of their guests. Our stay by far exceeded all our expectations. Manuel Antonio National Park guided hikes were by far one of the most amazing hikes I’ve ever done, it’s a very easy hike but the number of animals and wildlife on this gem is amazing. Within our first 10 minutes walking we spotted toucans, scarlet macaws, 3 different types of monkeys and even the sloth.



The amenities at the villa where wonderful, our well trained, and friendly staff was always there to assist us on anything we needed. Mefi our personal concierge was very helpful, and we enjoyed every trip we booked with him. White water rafting, waterfall tours and national park hike, they all were amazing. They met our every need.



For all those travelers looking for luxury touch yet affordable villa, I highly recommend Villa Natura.

We stayed here for 5 nights (7 of us) and it was perfect! The house was really nice, clean and had everything we needed. The view was unreal and it was in the perfect location. We had lots of monkeys visit and a few good storms too! The concierge, Mefi, was so nice and helpful, he really made the stay perfect! We loved this house and would recommend it to all of our friends and family.

The villa is spacious and nicely decorated. The kitchen is large with everything you’ll need. Easy walking distance to a grocery store, ATM and some great restaurants. Mefi is very responsive and will quickly take care of your every need. Febe keeps things immaculate and will even do your laundry. This place is a great choice if you’re visiting Manuel Antonio.

What an amazing experience! The house is perfect for an extended family or groups of families! Mefi was sooo helpful and made it easy to figure out what to do. All his recommendations were spot on!

This home is simply stunning, with fine craftsmanship throughout and a spectacular view. We spent a lot of time on both sides of the breakfast bar! Location is perfect as well...you can walk to several great restaurants and drive a short distance to many more. There are also a few grocery stores in the area, and a five minute or so drive to the National Park.



There was a very detailed guide book in the house, and Mefi is also a great source of information before and during your stay. The Can-Am off-road tour was quite fun!



The construction on both sides of the house was unfortunate, but Pablo at CRVacation Properties handled the situation very professionally, and we appreciated knowing ahead of time so we could adjust our expectations accordingly. Wildlife viewing was limited to a few birds and lizards, likely due to the construction noise as well as loss of trees.



One thing that should be added to the property description is that the three bedrooms on the lower level are separate from the main home and master bedroom...there is no interior staircase. I spent the first night on one of the twin beds because my daughter was nervous. By the second night, we discovered that she could use the intercom on the cordless phone if she needed us. There is a small living area, coffee station and mini-fridge on the lower level.



We only cooked breakfast, but the kitchen was very well equipped, including coffee, sugar, and spices. There were plenty of bath and pool towels, and two beach towels. Also plenty of soap and paper products as well as toiletries in each bathroom, which was a nice touch.



We did need some laundry done on our cleaning day. We really didn't want to trouble the housekeeper with it on a holiday weekend, but there was no access to the washer and dryer, so I couldn't do it myself. In any case, it was nice to come back to clean and folded laundry and a once-again spotless house.



Overall, we had a very nice stay in this well-appointed home, and appreciate the care and attention from the whole team. Thank you!
