Local expertise, personal concierge, rainforest villa — pura vida done right

Mornings at Casa Serenidad begin the same way: scarlet macaws blazing crimson across the jungle canopy, birds calling through the rainforest, warm breezes drifting through the trees, and the distant rumble of howler monkeys announcing another perfect day in paradise. Return to the deck in late afternoon and the macaws are back — a daily ritual that never gets old.

Set on a lush 1-acre rainforest estate in the secluded Valle Pura Vida community, this modern, air-conditioned two-story villa was thoughtfully designed for groups who want to experience Costa Rica without sacrificing comfort. Most visitors experience Costa Rica's rainforest from a tour bus or a park trail. At Casa Serenidad, the rainforest is your backyard — and it never stops performing.

OUTSIDE: Your private infinity pool and expansive deck are the heart of the home. Two al fresco dining tables seat 10, sun loungers line the pool edge, and a gas grill is ready for evening cookouts with a canopy view.

MAIN LEVEL: Soaring glass doors open the living and dining area to the deck. Fully equipped kitchen, dining for 6, master suite with king bed, jetted soaking tub, double-vanity, and private lounge area.

UPPER LEVEL: Three queen bedrooms each with balcony access and deep jungle views. Full shared bath with double-sink vanity.

THE RAINFOREST EXPERIENCE: From the pool deck, the canopy stretches uninterrupted across the valley — no roads, no rooftops, just layered green jungle dissolving into the horizon. Scarlet macaws cut crimson arcs overhead at dawn and dusk. Howler monkeys rattle the tree line each morning. Squirrel monkeys pick their way through the branches above the pool. The estate sits within an active wildlife corridor — meaning the animals aren't visiting, they live here too. This is what it feels like to be genuinely inside Costa Rica, not just near it.

ECO-FRIENDLY & SOLAR-POWERED: Casa Serenidad runs on a solar energy system, making it one of the only solar-powered luxury villas in Manuel Antonio. We believe in enjoying this incredible rainforest responsibly — from our energy system to our position within an active wildlife corridor, where scarlet macaws, howler monkeys, and squirrel monkeys move freely through the estate every day.

YOUR PERSONAL CONCIERGE — THE DIFFERENCE-MAKER: From the moment you book, your dedicated concierge handles tours, transfers, restaurant reservations, private chef arrangements, and activity planning — consider it done. Pre-arrival grocery stocking is also available — arrive to a fully stocked fridge, ready for your first morning in paradise. Complimentary housekeeping every other day keeps the villa fresh throughout your stay.
