Absolutely amazing experience! Orlando was an incredible host and made us feel completely at home from the moment we arrived. He was so kind, attentive, and helpful throughout our entire stay. Everything was wonderful, and we felt truly welcomed and cared for. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. We had an unforgettable experience and would definitely come back again. Thank you so much, Orlando, for making our stay so special!

Orlando puts so much care into welcoming our guests, and we can’t wait to share your kind words with him. We’re so glad you enjoyed the beauty and peaceful surroundings of El Nido. It was a pleasure having you, and we’d love to welcome you back for another unforgettable stay!

About the host

Hosted by Scott - Owner - Casa Cielo

Host profile image
We love Manuel Antonio and created El Nido to give guests the kind of stay we would want for our own family and friends: private, comfortable, well cared for, and easy to enjoy.

We have a local team nearby, including our concierge Orlando, who can help with everything from transportation and tours to private chefs, restaurant recommendations, and local tips. Our goal is to give guests the privacy of having their own home while still having someone available when they need help.

We take a lot of pride in the house and genuinely enjoy helping guests make the most of their time in Costa Rica.

Why they chose this property

We chose this part of Manuel Antonio because it gives you the best of both worlds: you're surrounded by the tropical beauty and wildlife Costa Rica is famous for, while still being close to the beaches, Manuel Antonio National Park, restaurants, shops, tours, and everything else the area has to offer.

One of our favorite things about Manuel Antonio is that the experience starts right outside your door. Monkeys, macaws, toucans, sloths and other wildlife are part of everyday life here, and no two days feel exactly the same.

El Nido is a great home base for exploring during the day and then coming back to your own private space to relax.

What makes this property unique

El Nido is a private 3-bedroom tropical home designed for smaller groups who want their own space without giving up the amenities of a great Manuel Antonio vacation.

The home features two king bedrooms, a third bedroom, a private pool, outdoor shower, air conditioning, a fully equipped kitchen, and comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces for relaxing together.

What really makes El Nido special is the combination of privacy and service. You have the entire property to yourself, while our local concierge and team are nearby whenever you need them. We can help arrange airport transportation, private chefs, tours, excursions, restaurant recommendations and more.

It's especially well suited for couples, families, or a small group of friends looking for a private alternative to a hotel or resort — with Manuel Antonio right outside your door.
