Beautiful spacious home

Our family of 8 older adults spent 3 beautiful weeks at Casa Manana. The house was just as described. It was very spacious and accommodated us perfectly. Every couple had their spacious bedroom and bathroom. We didn't feel crowded at all. As we chose not to do any excursions, we spent most of our time at the house. We went for a few walks to the beach which is about 15 minutes away. It was super hot every day and the walk uphill was a little exhausting at times but having a swimming pool made everything a lot more refreshing. We were thankful for the air conditioners in the home. It made sleeping very comfortable. We spent most of our time outside under the covered porch which was awesome when the sun was really hot and of course the pool was appreciated. Having a washroom outside was definitely beneficial especially when using the pool. We also really enjoyed the outside cooking area as we barbecued most nights. Unfortunately there was some construction of a new home happening near us therefore it was a little noisy during the day but it didn't ruin our holiday. It is a very peaceful area especially in the evenings. We had the house cleaned during our stay which is included in the price. We were very impressed with the thorough cleaning she provided. The house was equipped with everything we needed. We were impressed with all the spices that were provided. We would suggest maybe replacing some of the worn drinking glasses. I would highly recommend renting this house.

Short Stay in Paradise

Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to stay in your beautiful home. The home layout was prefect should we have needed to be inside, but the truth is we only cooked and slept in there :) Seating for 7 in the living room, 4 bedrooms - 5 beds, 4 bathrooms. The kitchen had everything that we needed for preparing a meal, plus all of the essentials. The outdoor sitting space was our oasis for the week. We gathered around the couches, sat in the pool and purely enjoyed the scenery. The outdoor fridge with the grill was just an added bonus. We did lose power and internet a couple of times, but that is to be expected in such a location and to be honest, it didn't interrupt our stay. The pool was cleaned 2x while we were there. Just a note that if you are there, they are told to leave and not interrupt your stay - we used the net that was available for us and provided feedback to Zindis that we were more than ok for someone to come and do their job (we would have even offered lunch). Again, it didn't really effect our stay. We had wildlife visit us on more than one occasion. Coati, Iguanas (many), hummingbirds, butterflies, howler monkeys and birds galore. The beach isn't far away - a longer walk than I wanted, but an easy drive and there is parking. There are vendors as well. Thank you for the recommendation on a car company - they were attentive to anything we needed. We certainly would use them again! Thank you again!!! Your new friends from WI and MN

Amazing Family Trip

We loved our stay in Playa Hermosa. We had 6 adults and 2 kids (5 and 2.5) and the house provided enough space to accommodate us all. We spent most of the day playing in the pool and hot tub. We saw howler monkeys in the back yard and iguanas around the pool. The location was walking distance to the beach. We did have a car for the kids.

Great villa close to Playa Hermosa

We were a group of six family members staying at this spacious villa. It is a 15 minute walk from the beach, about 45 metres vertically so quite manageable. Several good restaurants nearby, and one excellent one - the Hacienda Blu. The kitchen was well supplied for the meals we prepared on site, and the pool was quite welcome in the heat of the day. Bonus points for the pickeball raquettes and court!

About the host

Hosted by Scott and Crystal Forrest

My Wife and I first came to Costa Rica with our 5 children in May of 2012 and fell in love with the country and its people. We have been many times since with a year stay in the Brasilito area in 2014-2015 so the kids could go to school, learn another language and culture. We returned back to Canada knowing that one day we would own a little piece of paradise. 2018 would be the year!! We purchase Casa Manana with the intentions of sharing our home to other families who want experience Costa Rica's beauty .

Why they chose this property

When we first saw this home we knew it was the one!

We love the people, the climate, the beach, the food, the laid-back pace and the overall beauty of Costa Rica
