About this property

Casa Elsa-Ocean View, Pool, Walk to Beach

Casa Elsa is an exclusive, ocean view luxury vacation rental home located in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica, featuring four bedrooms and five full baths. Casa Elsa combines over 7700 square feet of tropical paradise with the luxury and amenities that are sure to satisfy even the most discriminating holidaymaker.

We have just purchased Casa Elsa in May 2023 and recently finished some significant upgrades including new tile floors on the top level, full interior paint with new colors, newly added square footage with a new Dining Room, all new LED lighting, new designer gourmet kitchen with new custom teak wood cabinets, quartz countertops, new appliances, all new art , new bar b q, all new mattresses and bedding, new bathroom mirrors and more.

Casa Elsa's uniqueness lies in its ability to offer an open concept view of the Costa Rican jungle and its wildlife while maintaining complete privacy and security. The vast, modern and open spaces means that the only visitors you can expect are from nature itself. Daily visits from birds, monkeys and a lazy sloth, along with a refreshing steady breeze from the Pacific Ocean will make your visit to Casa Elsa an everlasting and unforgettable experience.

On the upper level of Casa Elsa, you will enjoy a large gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a dining room with a custom-made teak wood dining room table and a full bath complete with a shower. The large, beautiful ocean view infinity edge swimming pool and pool deck rounds out the upper floor. Level two occupies the first bedroom featuring a King size bed plus a futon and an ensuite bathroom. All bedrooms are equipped with AC. The second bedroom on this level has a queen size bed with an ensuite bathroom. Here you will also find the living room complete with a large flat screen TV. Finally, the lower level houses the master bedroom suite that includes both a King and Queen size bed with a large ensuite bathroom and a large jungle view private jacuzzi. The fourth bedroom also has a King size bed with ensuite bathroom. On this level you will also find the game room with a pool table and the laundry room.

Although all the common space is primarily open air, the three exterior doors to Casa Elsa are all secured with dead bolt locks. The front of the home is completely walled, with no access to the back or side of the house from the street. The home is 3 stories high with the first floor being over 15ft above ground. Additionally, all bedrooms are fully contained and secured with locks while the entire home is protected with a security system for those who choose to use it.

Casa Elsa offers many areas for shared moments including the custom mural at the front entrance door as well as the sitting area located on the 2nd floor and the large glass plate that allows you to take photos of your loved ones while they are under water in the infinity edge swimming pool.

Casa Elsa’s location is one of a kind. A quick 10-15 min walk down the hill (just over a half mile) to the beach makes Casa Elsa a great choice. Within a 5–10-minute walk, you will also find a variety of restaurants, groceries, bars and more. The beauty of Casa Elsa’s location is that you are surrounded by jungle while enjoying the abundant wildlife and within walking distance of the many great things that Manual Antonio offers.

When booking with us, you will get free concierge service. Concierge can help you with private airport transportation, chef services, massages, tours, reservations or anything else you might need during your stay. You also get daily housekeeping service, with the exception of Sunday, to include laundry service. There is also a team that comes throughout the week to maintain the pool and the grounds. The service at Casa Elsa is second to none!

Expect to see an array of wildlife while staying at Casa Elsa including various species of monkeys, sloths, macaws, parrots, deer, squirrels, raccoons, coatis, pacas, anteaters, and occasionally ocelots. Be careful not to leave food out, as the monkeys tend to help themselves. Being at Casa Elsa is as close to living in the Jungle as you can get!

Nature and privacy in amazing location
Wow! We just LOVE Casa Elsa. We’ve been renting private vacation homes for 20 years and we’ve loved them all, but this is the only one that we’d return to. The house immerses you in the jungle canopy and nature. We saw more wild life sitting at the house than we saw in any of the parks. Troops of squirrel, capuchin and howler monkeys daily. Macaws constantly flying by, along with toucan’s, motmots, quetzals and more bird sightings. We also saw a kinkajou with a baby. All this just feet from the patio.. or in the cases of the monkeys, sometimes hanging in the house. We are generally a very active crew, but we spent a lot of time in the house because it was so special. The house is very private and the location cannot be beat… easy walk (small hike) to multiple beaches and to incredible restaurants with spectacular views. We liked Emilio’s, Milagaros, La Lambretta, but there are tons of options within walking distance. I’d also recommend having Chef Renzo for portion of your stay for a private dining experience with the freshest fish prepared bespoke to your tastes. The Canopy Tour zipline was great fun and deep in nature too. I’d recommend this for families and friends that truly love the outdoors. Leave your alarm clock at home and relying on a morning wake up call from the howlers where you’ll catch the last of the stars and to enjoy the sunrise with the local wildlife residents. A special thanks to Susan who made our trip special and easy.
