Wow! Our family was SO happy with this house! For serious wildlife and nature fanatics this place was a dream. For those who also want comfort, luxury, and pampering this place was also a dream. We took our 3 college kids plus boyfriends/girlfriends on our first Costa Rica trip and we couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay! Everyone had privacy, gorgeous views and their own bathrooms. The monkeys came by every afternoon! Mauricio was very responsive and so helpful booking private tours for us and answering questions. Heylin was so sweet and kind, and kept the house so nice for our big group every day. I’d give this house 10 stars

The house layout, ocean view, beach access, pool and overall location were wonderful. It's a short walk to the beach and a few restaurants but still feels very private with all the vegetation. Like everywhere in Manuel Antonio, it's on a steep hill so you'll get a work out. Kitchen was more than well-appointed with nice appliances and gas grill. The tap water was chlorinated and safe to drink. Lots of wildlife nearby and the afternoon monkey show was a treat! Staff were friendly and welcoming. House and grounds were kept spotless. Wouldn't change a thing! Pura Vida!

If you want to stay at the best villa with a gorgeous beach view, this is the best private house in Manuel Antonio. The sunset from the upper and lower deck had an amazing view of the sunset and rain forest. It is a short walk to the beach (10 mins) and to Manuel Antonio National Park (45 mins). All the popular restaurants were within a 15 min drive and 3 small super markets were nearby. If you prefer to walk, a half dozen restaurants were within a 30 min radius. All rooms, to include the living area, had cold A/C and good water pressure. Beach towels were included and maid service is available to wash your clothes. The only complaint we had was parking at the villa. It is a bit steep but you will get used to it after a few tries. If you are into the wildlife, Monkeys and colorful birds were at our deck each day. One day we had over 20 Monkeys. It is suggested not to feed the monkeys so make sure you don’t have fruit laying around or they will steal it from your bag or hand. Parasailing and surf lesson are only a few minutes when you enter the beach. We paid 60 per person for a 30 min parasailing ride. Waves can be large but we didn’t experience any dangerous rip tides but everyone still needs to be vigilant as people drown from rip tides in Costa Rica every year.

We just returned from a week of luxurious living at Casa Alegria. This house is a dream come true! And, it looks even better in person.Mauricio, our concierge, arranged excursions for us, a shuttle to and from the airport, trips to markets, dinner reservations, and was available to answer all of our questions. Heilyn cleaned the house every day and even did our laundry! James cleaned the pool and patios every day. The water was always sparkling!To our delight, squirrel monkeys and capuchins visited every day! We also saw toucans, macaws, sloths, agoutis, and iguanas. The walk to the private beach WAS straight down and straight up but it was worth it!! Our oldest member, who is 76, navigated it with no issues. All in all, it was a magical week that none of us will ever forget! We plan on booking this property again!Excursion recommendations: ziplining, catamaran/snorkeling, and jungle night tour

We recently spent ten days at Casa Alegria and it was ten days in paradise! The house was gorgeous, the view incredible and daily visits from the monkeys much to everyone's delight! Mauricio was a tremendous help with questions prior to arrival and helping to arrange transportation and activities and he checked in with us regularly to see if we needed anything. Small problem with the AC in living area was dealt with immediately. I was a little unsure about having a housekeeper there all day but it was fabulous! Heilyn was lovely and unobtrusive and did a great job keeping the seven of us clean and tidy!

Amazing View!
The view was breathtaking. We also saw more wildlife than in the national parks. Daily maid service was great. The only negative was the walk to the beach, which was quite difficult. We were also told by lifeguards not to swim near the beach entrance due to rip currents, rocks, & a croc.

Monkeys and sloths
We loved this house! We had our own Monkeys and sloth in the trees outside our kitchen window! So close to entrance of National Park where we swam. Beach by house is too rough to swim for us but the pool was amazing!!!! House made the vacation! Bottom floor bedroom is a bit away from everyone and stairs are steep for elderly, Elderly didn’t care because they loved the view! and they stayed in top floor .Do not drive a stick shift Van to this house like we did, very hard to park in steep driveway.

Casa Alegria is a very nice place to stay. Great location great views great wildlife. I found it a bit strange that the housekeeper was there for about five hours per day cleaning. She did an amazing job, but it was a bit overkill. Mauricio was a fantastic host and did a great job of communicating.

Anniversary trip
Life in the jungle! An abundance of wild life moves through the property throughout the day (and night). Several types of monkey's, Kinkajou, Toucan, Macaw's. We saw it all and we saw it all the time. A quick walk takes you from the property to a fantastic beach! Gentle enough for daily swims, big enough to pull out the surf boards! And walking distance to several restaurants and shops in Manual Antonio.The house is stunning. We traveled with multiple generations and had their own comfortable space. Finding a place with as many bathrooms as bedrooms isn't easy. This place checked all the boxes. It was extremely lean upon arrival and the daily housekeeping was next level! We'll never be that spoiled again! We were all beyond please witht he accommodations and highly recommend to larger groups! Five star for sure!

Luxurious yet Lacking
The home is lovely, the rooms are large and each has an ensuite. The view of the ocean is beautiful and the pool, with its deck is very nice. The kitchen is well equipped. What was weird is that with all the luxury, there are obvious design faults and maintenance issues.1. The showers are terrible. Either the build-up in the showerheads has gone on too long, or there just isn’t enough water pressure. Also the valve for changing the flow from bath to shower needed to be replaced. The shower door was installed incorrectly, so you can’t open the door, unless you leave it a little open.2. The building is made of concrete, so you have to change your wifi source as you move about the house. 3. There is no labeling on the multitude of switches on the walls. If you turn on the wrong one it could the light outside your bedroom, which you won’t know until its bedtime. Then you have to figure out which switch it was.4. There was only one little table out by the pool and two umbrellas. There was at least 10 lounges and chairs. More shade needed to be provided.5. The company provideds a qr code that directs you to their webpage. We arranged a couple of activities that cost considerably more than what was stated. That shows a lack of paying attention.As seems to be true with most rentals like this, things are not as rosy as they are presented, but close enough so people accept what they get.

10 out of 10!
We loved everything about this place! The location was beautiful and every bedroom has an ocean view. The maid came in everyday and even washed our clothes! Mauricio was available 24/7 to answer questions, book tours or to summon a taxi. I can’t recommend this place enough!!
Casa Alegria feels like a private, luxury resort. The top floor features a gorgeous view of the ocean and islands through the floor to ceiling, building-wide glass windows. We could have sat on the deck, or inside, all day. The beach down the steep but short road begs for a walk along it to town or to lounge on the sand. The pool area provided a lot of fun too.
The dining area and accommodated the eight of us comfortably. The bedroom suites felt large and beautiful. We enjoyed the capuchin monkeys visiting during the day. Unfortunately, we never spotted the resident sloth. The maid cleaning daily and doing our laundry was an unexpected bonus.

Absolute Perfection!
I wish I could give this 100 stars!!! Everything you will read in reviews is absolutely true and maybe even better if possible. Our family has traveled extensively all over the world and have stayed in VRBO homes. This home is possibly the very best due to the location and the beautiful house but even more...BECAUSE OF THE AMAZING ALEX, HEILYN AND JAIME!! Alex was responsive to any requests before AND during our stay. (he even offered to get cold medicine for me when I caught a cold!) He helped us arrange activities which were so much fun...so MUCH to do in Manuel Antonio! Heilyn is the housekeeper that will come every day (except Sundays and holidays) and she is the sweetest person ever! Always happy and smiling and she keeps the house impeccably clean! And having your laundry washed and folded everyday is a bonus you will love!!! Lots of wild life; cappucine and squirrel monkeys will visit every day, toucans in the trees outside the kitchen window, soaring macaws, and Heilyn helped us find a sloth in that very tree! Jaime kept the pool and deck areas sparkling clean so it was always a pleasure to spend time by the pool. The three of them took such good care of us and they truly felt like family. As you can see, we cannot praise this property and staff/family sufficiently. Highly highly highly recommended!

We enjoyed ourselves so much at this beautiful property. It was as good as advertised, clean, well maintained, lovely views, close to the water and restaurants. And Alexander was a great host, very helpful with advice, excursion bookings and even booked us a chef so we could enjoy the wonderful accommodations even more.
