Beautiful home away from home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Costa Rica in this idyllic home that seemed so close to all the hot spots in Manuel Antonio. Communication with Krissia was superb! She arranged so many of our day trips, taxi drivers and replied to every question or concern rapidly. Loved our stay!

Beautiful property, thoughtfully managed

This house is just as beautiful as pictured. It’s also well-stocked with everything you could need in terms of cooking utensils & dishes, coffee & coffee-maker, bug spray, guidebooks, luggage racks, safe, laundry facilities, and more. Everything you might need is here. The concierge, Krissia, is responsive and easy to work with. We spent lots of time on the terrace, watching the sunset and the toucans in the trees.As others have noted, you would do well to have a 4x4 for the steep dirt road up to the house (you’ll want a 4x4 for many roads in CR anyway if you are driving).

Perfect!

We had an amazing time here. The view from the terrace is incredible, and my 12 year old daughter loved the pool. We saw many birds and even had a visit from a group of spider monkeys. The house was clean and beautiful and everything we were looking for in a vacation home.

Our stay was amazing with beautiful views. We had a family of monkeys swing by, a Toucan had a few sips of the water from the pool. We even watched a sloth hang from a tree and slowly go into his ball position. A Truly Wonderful Experience

Beautiful, spacious, clean, comfortable home!

We loved our stay here. The concierge Krissia was fantastic and very helpful. The pool and patio were amazing … monkeys, spectacular views and plenty of shade during hottest parts of the day. The bedrooms are comfortable and the kitchen is super well equipped. We hired the chef recommended by Krissia and his meal was a highlight of our trip! Strongly recommend hiring him for at least one meal. We hope to return to this vacation home again soon.

Fantastic view, patio/deck and pool

House is exactly as the pictures show and we enjoyed our stay. The view from the pool for sunset is one of the highlights of our trip. The house is closer to Quepos and a bit further from the heart of Manuel Antonio, but a bus trip to MA is typical no matter where you stay. House can be a little difficult to find at night. Krissia (owner) and Mariam (concierge) were great to work with and helpful throughout our trip and planning for it.

Plenty of space, great location, and views as advertised

Casa Terraza was a great home base for our family during our trip to the Quepos/Manuel Antonio area in late July/early August. The pictures online are exactly as it is. Plenty of space indoors and outdoors, with a beautiful view of the pacific in the distance. The house is roughly a 10 minute drive the national park and 5 minutes to downtown quepos. Krissia, our point of contact for the house, was absolutely incredible when it came to arranging tours and asking questions during our trip. We also had chef Mauricio come and prepare dinner for us one night and it’s a “must do”. Wildlife-wise, we had one afternoon where a sloth was within view and a couple days where the monkeys passed through. We saw more animals near the house than we saw at Manuel Antonio :-)

Monkeys, macaws, rangers, toucans, aracari, tanagers, and more

Best provisioned home we have ever been in. Thank you so much! A/c throughout, a big plus when you’re hot and sweaty. The pool felt great but is quite deep everywhere, no shallow standing area. The decks are amazing with fans, tables and chairs, recliners, an outside grill and kitchen area. Sonia, the house keeper was so sweet and fun to be around; the maintenance staff is super and very prompt and professional. Overall, we loved being here. If you drive, You do need to be very careful when entering and leaving the neighborhood to the main road as it’s on a curve.

Amazing place!

We loved Costa Rica and Casa Terrazza was highlight. The veranda couldn't be beat for the view, the ability to be out in the sun or be under the cover in the shade, have the ceiling fans going and then the pool!! The house is well supplied with spices. The only draw back was that it wasn't walkable to anything. There aren't sidewalks and it is up a steep hill from stores and restaurants. We had our own car so this wasn't a problem, but without a car I think it would be. The communication with the host was wonderful and she helped book an incredible raft trip for us. Thank you

Casa Terraza, the BEST!

What a total experience and amazing stay! First, the house, outdoor space and views were unbelievable and outstanding! It is beautiful in the pictures, but they do not do justice to the real thing. The house is so beautifully laid out, decorated and exceptionally clean. The outdoor space, pool and garden areas were impeccably manicured and maintained. The house was very well equipped and supplied so it was not necessary to buy a lot of things….an extra thank you! Krissia was an absolute delight and so easy to work with! She helped us with everything from transportation to and from the airport, local taxi service, excursions, shopping and meals. She was very quick to answer my many questions and definitely an asset to the owner and so nice and welcoming. Chef William cooked us 2 fabulous meals. The taste and presentation were exquisite and added an extra level to our Costa Rican visit. Muchas gracias! I cannot say enough positive things about truly everything! I don’t know how anything could have been nicer or better. Thank you Lee, Krissia, William, excursions, all the taxi drivers for making our stay in Costa Rica extra, extra special. Pura Vida!🇨🇷

Fantastic place

Absolutely fantastic place! We were two couples and a 6-yr old, we stay here four nights. The property is absolutely terrific, near to a lot of the main sightseeing spots in the area. The home overlooks the jungle and has a view of the sea. We saw a lot of diverse animals: monkeys, macaws, toucans, etc. We enjoyed the place so much that we would do an activity in the morning and spend the rest of the day relaxing on the deck or by the pool. The concierge was absolutely great; so helpful and very quick to respond.

My family stayed here for about a week in April. It was so close to everything but felt very private and secluded. We saw monkeys, toucans, iguanas, and macaws. The pool was a great way to spend afternoons after morning excursions. Would definitely come back!

From the back deck, we did see lots of birds, some monkeys and an iguana. Unfortunately on more than one day there was the smell of sewer present and on the last full day we were without water (the concierge did arrange to fix the water problem as quickly as could reasonably be expected).
