About this property

5-Bedroom Villa-Great Location, Ocean View, RENOVATED POOL and Wildlife

Casa Sarita is a 3-story, 5-bedroom luxury house, with decks and balconies to take in outstanding views of the Pacific Ocean and an ALL-NEW INFINITY POOL, patio, and yoga deck. The home’s private jungle setting brings Costa Rica’s monkeys, sloths, toucans and other wildlife right to your door. The house is conveniently located within walking distance of the heart of Manuel Antonio, where you will find shops, bars, restaurants, and is just a 5 minutes’ drive to the world famous Manuel Antonio National Park and Espadilla Beach. Our local concierge will greet you upon arrival and can help arrange transportation, grocery delivery, an in-home chef, restaurant reservations, tours, and more.

Located 1 mile from Manuel Antonio National Park and Beach, Casa Sarita has 5 comfortable bedrooms which easily accommodate 10 guests.

The master bedroom, located on the first floor, includes a king-size bed with a pillow-top mattress and an en suite bath. A winding wooden staircase brings guests to the second level, which is home to 3 additional colorful bedrooms with king beds, sharing a spacious and well-appointed bathroom. A staircase to the third floor opens to ocean views and a comfortable terrace complete with hammock and mini-fridge. This level also hosts the 5th bedroom. The terrace is perfect for viewing the famous Costa Rican sunsets.

The house is fully furnished with all the amenities of home, including a completely equipped kitchen with all major appliances. This home is fully air conditioned with individual bedroom units and a large split unit in the main living / kitchen area. There is also cable TV and wifi. Grand vaulted ceilings and beautifully designed arched windows invite sea breezes and the soothing sounds of the jungle and the ocean.

Expansive outdoor spaces feature off-street parking for 2 vehicles, a spacious patio with outdoor kitchen and BBQ grill, dining table, sun loungers, and a new jungle infinity pool and yoga deck. From this area you will enjoy regular monkey visit as well as sloths and birds sightings.

Casa Sarita is located in a private neighborhood that is gated and patrolled after dark by security. Taxis and buses are abundant on the nearby main road if you decide not to rent a vehicle.

Cleaning service is provided every other day, except Sundays and holidays. All linens -- including sheets, bath, and pool towels -- are included. We recommend utilizing a 4×4 vehicle or AWD to access the house and also to explore the off-the-beaten paths and bumpy Costa Rican roads.

Jorge the concierge---best of the best. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. He gave us EXCELLENT recommendations for local places to eat and he always responded in 5 minutes or less. Housekeeping staff did an excellent job - place was sparkling every other day because of them I truly felt like I was able to relax. Monkeys visited every morning 5-8 am. Home is in an excellent location - walkable if you can manage hills. We did just fine and being down lower and it gave us better views of the monkeys and sloths.

Wildlife Paradise

Casa Sarita has everything a home needs. It is comfortable, spacious, has Costa Rican charm, and has multiple areas for either being together or having some seclusion. It is within walking distance to wonderful restaurants and has an abundance of wildlife to view daily. It was the perfect house for adventuring during the day and relaxing in the evening. Our family of eight loved it!

We had a large van very hard to navigate the small turn around as you share the driveway with 3 other houses the parting appears to be first come first serve and is very tight .Maid service was spot on will definitely rent this property again in the future.

Best Thanksgiving Ever!

Casa Sarita is the perfect place for family and friends to meet in beautiful Costa Rica. The house is comfortable, beautifully decorated, and located in a perfect area for tourist. We spent Thanksgiving week at Casa Sarita and were impressed with the outstanding views, wildlife encounters daily, the fantastic local restaurants and the availability of guided sightseeing tours. Would not hesitate to return to this idyllic tropical paradise.

Excellent Jungle House

This house was pretty cool and felt like we were in the Jungle Book movie. It had a very steep paved driveway which is normal in this area but our 4x4 Had no issues. Views of the Pacific were great on the upper level. Bathrooms were very nice. We had monkey visitors everyday and awoke to the Howler monkeys…once on the roof.

Fantastic stay!

We had a wonderful week in Manuel Antonio And at the villa. It’s a great set up for a single family in terms of the rooms and the outdoor space including the new redone deck, and the new pool is absolutely perfect for relaxing and viewing the wildlife. We had daily visits from 3 species of monkeys, and frequent sitings of iguanas, macaws, toucans and a variety of other birds. The villa is just a short walk to a multitude of restaurants and shops and our villa concierge was at our beck and call for arranging any transportation need or adventure/tour. he really made everything quite seamless, which is a huge help. Just a fantastic experience all around!!

Great location and super helpful team

This was a great place for a vacation that was truly beyond our expectations. Jorge was the most helpful concierge I have ever had. He was super easy to contact and quick to respond to every question/request we had. We saw 3 types of monkeys in our trees every day we were there and this location is very close to both the beach and the national park. It made for the perfect home base for all of our once-in-a lifetime activities--surfing, wildlife spotting, cacao plantation tour, waterfall pool swimming, scuba diving and whale watching to name only a few. I would definitely recommend Casa Sarita for any group looking for a mind-blowing vacation in Costa Rica!

Glorious week in paradise!

Our recent stay at the beautiful Casa Sarita could not have been more perfect. The house is spacious, beautifully appointed and extremely roomy. We woke every morning with a beautiful view of the ocean. We loved having coffee by the pool every morning surrounded by the jungle, looking for monkeys and birds. The house could not be better located...so many restaurants and shops within walking distance. The beach and park are only a quick 5 minute drive. All of the restaurants we ate at it were amazing with great service. The house staff did a wonderful job of cleaning every day. I could not recommend Casa Sarita and Costa Rica more as a vacation destination!

A Perfect Casa For Us

We had a fantastic stay in this fab casa! Our kids had to flip a coin as to who got to stay in the tree house room. It was cool! The house had everything we needed for our family of 5. We enjoyed seeing sloths in the trees, parrots flying in pairs, iguanas walking on the retaining walls and more! They have renovated the pool and we liked the newer, bigger design. We took dips in it to celebrate the New Year. The pool towels that were provided were very plush too! As others have noted the house has a steep driveway but we managed a stick 4 x 4 just fine on it. We would walk to the top of the drive to catch some of our tour pick ups. Our Concierge was awesome and helped us book a lovely New Year’s Eve dinner, a personal chef & other excursions. He is local so has lots of insights which are very helpful. We would definitely book again!!!

The winner of our trip!

We traveled to Costa Rica as a family of 5. We stayed at 3 different hotels and 2 homes, we all voted at the end of the trip for our favorite spot and Casa Sarita won the vote! We had the best time! The location is incredible, a hilly walk for sure but its walkable to a few restaurants and shops. From the photos online I thought we would only see the ocean from the top floor. I was pleasantly surprised to see that we had a view of the ocean from every level of the home including the pool! We were visited by a sloth and monkeys, the sloth was a true highlight of our trip! The pool water was so warm and the kids had the most amazing time swimming in the pool at all hours of the morning, afternoon and night. We walked for coffee at Emilios Cafe, had dinner at La Mariposa Hotel which is just one street over, went to the local beach every day, just incredible! The driveway down to the house was Steep! A little scary at first, but we got used to it!

Impressive!

Great location. We loved the howler and squirrel monkeys that came by. We even spotted a sloth one day. The rooms are spacious and accommodate many - we only had 5 in our group, but it worked well. The top bedroom has the most breathtaking views, but no bathroom. So we all slept on the first two levels and used the top floor for viewing wildlife and morning coffee. Very tranquil. I rolled my ankle the day before so we didn't walk to restaurants, we drove. Everyone in our group was grateful of my injury since they got a ride & didn't have to walk. That's a steep incline. When we booked, the house was in transition between owners so communication wasn't great prior to arriving & left me a bit unsure, but once there Hazel was great & we were well looked after. Great house. Pura Vida!

Magnificent

Just loved this property. It's so unique and beautiful and fun. Even though you are surrounded by other houses, you do not feel it. The tree canopy and surrounding shrubbery provide plenty of privacy. As animal lovers, we were thrilled by the daily visits of the howler, squirrel, and capuchin monkeys. So fun to watch and listen to. All kinds of wickedly cool lizards and birds, too. One of our favorite things to do was to sit poolside or in one of the comfortable and well maintained lounge chairs. It was so pleasant, especially in the morning. The house is just lovely inside. All 7 of us agreed the beds were super comfortable and the AC worked perfectly. The kitchen was the best equipped kitchen of any vacation home I've ever stayed in. We cooked a lot so this was important to us. The view from up top was gorgeous and my husband regularly laid in the provided hammock and read. Regarding the driveway. Look people, I've read the reviews. It's not that big of a deal. We regularly went up and down the hill in our two AWDs with no problem. Please don't worry about it. And parking for two vehicles (not vans!) is ample. Jorge was a great concierge. Quickly answered all my questions and provided superb recommendations. We also took advantage of the private chef services the first night. Chef Katya was amazing! Ask for her. Only minus: no washer/dryer.

Wonderful vacation home near everything

My family of 8 loved our stay in this house. It provided plenty of room for us. The beds were comfortable and we were happy to see the master bedroom was on the main floor. There are alot of steps leading up to the front door. The driveway is downright intimidating but once you drive it one time, you’ll see it’s not so bad. The views are amazing and there were so many monkeys around. They came very very close to us. The kids absolutely loved that. The howler monkeys were very loud in the early mornings but it was definitely worth it for the experience. The swimming pool was a great bonus. It was very beautiful and well kept. This house is close to shops, restaurants and just minutes from the Manuel Antonio national park. Maria was a wonderful host and was very responsive. The concierge service was a nice surprise. They were fabulous and very helpful. Jorge, Hazel and staff were always pleasant and willing to help with whatever we needed. I would absolutely recommend this home for your next Manuel Antonio / Quepos vacation.
