Host was responsive. House clean. Kitchen fully stocked. House seemed dated, jets in hot tub not working. One of the downstairs bedrooms had lizards probably crawled under door. Stove was tricky. Fans in top livingroom were one speed. Wifi was spotty.

Amazing Stay

Perfect place to stay in Manuel Antonio! Walking distance to numerous restaurants and beaches! And an amazing view of Manuel Antonio National Park. All staff made us feel at home and welcome and were a huge help with any questions we had. We loved swimming in the pool every day! Everything was clean and just like the pictures.

Great house in a fantastic location.

Though there was an initial hiccup with the cleaning service schedule, the managers of this property more than made up for our inconvenience and we very much enjoyed our stay. The place is perfect for groups who would also enjoy a bit of space. We were two couples and two singles (all friends) traveling together and it was nice to be able to spread out, but also get together for meals or by the pool. The views from the various decks are fantastic and we enjoyed watching the monkeys and birds from the comfort of home.

Incredible property

The location, the view, the staff, the manager, I do not know where to start because everything was perfect. We had monkeys, three toe sloths, birds coming to the house every single day. Everything about this place will leave me in awe for years. Let me just say, the best staff I have ever seen. They work hands on and daily and made it their mission to keep us the most comfortable and safe for our entire trip. If that was not enough, the view speaks for itself and is to die for.

Perfect Location and Great Staff

While the property looks great on VRBO, it's even better in person! We were able to walk to beaches, restaurants, and grocery stores (although the house is on a hill, so it's rather strenuous). It could not have been more convenient. And the view! It's what I miss most! Lastly, Chris, the property manager made great recommendations and helped with every inquiry within minutes! I will stay here again if I make it back to Costa Rica!

Casa Diamante Shines!

All the reviews about the location of Casa Diamante are correct. A short walk up to many restaurants and stores. The walk down the hill leads to an awesome beach, with very few people. The house itself is fantastic, with stunning views of the rain forest and ocean. Chris was a tremendous host, helping us to book excursions, find tour guides, book taxis and transportation back to the airport. Casa Diamante was the best, and exemplifies the Costa Rica motto of PURA VIDA!

Manuel Antonio June, 2024

We have just returned from a wonderful week at Casa Diamante. The spacious house was perfect for our extended family of 10. It was clean and well furnished. The housekeeper and grounds keeper were great. Alex our concierge was really great. He was always available helping us set up excursions, shuttles, taxis, dinner reservations, etc. The house is in a good location, but it is on a very steep hill, so we would take a shuttle or taxi to various sites. The house has a great view, and we saw macaws, toucans, monkeys, iguanas, and sloths.

Perfect choice for our family

Casa Diamante is a beautiful house perfectly located close enough to the beach and to the town of Manuel Antonio that we could walk to both. Our group of 9 had more than enough space. Also, it was so nice to have two wonderful cleaning ladies come every day. Having someone do the dishes and tidy up gave us more time to enjoy this beautiful country. Chris was very helpful in making arrangements for our excursions. He clearly loves his country and is super knowledgeable about agriculture, ecology, and horticulture. We knew we'd love Costa Rica no matter where we stayed but Chris and Casa Diamante made it feel like home. I hope someday we are lucky enough to return. Pura Vida!

Beautiful Casa

We booked Casa Diamante to house our family of 10 during our wedding weekend and the property was perfect. The different suite types matched exactly what we were looking for, with the Toucan apartment being a perfect fit for my cousin's family of 4 with 2 kids, the Iguana suites working well for elderly parents who can't take stairs, and the penthouse being a great area to gather for breakfast, which Chris helped us book. Our family was pleased with the stay and the kids enjoyed how large the pool was. Chris was not there to physically check us in and the bedroom door to the master suite was locked so we had to hunt down one of the staff members, but it was resolved relatively quickly. We were very thankful to have access to Casa Diamante for our wedding weekend as it allowed our full family to stay about 5 minutes away from our villa property.

Great location and service from Chris and his team

The location of this property coupled with the amazing service by Chris and his team made our trip!!!. Chris is warm, kind and has great folks to work with. And his connections that took care of all of our needs! Chris and his team are amazing! The hoise is within walking distance to the beach and restaurant. However roads are narrow and steep hills so we often took a cab. We saw three kinds of monkeys from the house! The pool, out door entertainment area and main level were perfect for our group and entertainment. We hired the chef for one night and dinner was the best we had in all of Costa Rica. The home is older and in need of repairs. Chris and the owner worked with us to remedy. Over alll great place to stay!

World Class Experience in Paradise

Our vacation at Casa Diamante was fantastic. Our entire experience beginning with my initial inquiry to Jenny regarding the property has been superb. The home is clean, well-appointed and maintained with beautiful ocean views and is conveniently located near shopping and numerous wonderful restaurants. The ladies providing the maid service kept everything spotless and Nelson, the on property night security guard guaranteed a good night’s sleep. As an owner of beachfront vacation properties myself, I truly appreciate the level of effort required to keep a property this nice! Chris, the on-site manager, speaks perfect English and can arrange anything from tours and surfing, to shopping and dining. Need anything at all just ask and he will make it happen! He made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived and over the course of the week became a member of the family. Pura Vida Chris and we will see you again soon!!!

Spacious apartments with gorgeous views

We rented the entire property - it's essentially a multi-unit compound with tons of space and tons of little areas so everyone can do their own thing and not get on each other's nerves. - The place is very nicely furnished - the dining tables are gorgeous and the AC/Fans are top notch. We only turned on the main TV once. - The property manager - Chris was incredibly responsive and easy-going - loved him! - The security guard - Brian was awesome as well. We had an outdoor family style meal on the pool level and there was a HUGE spider that showed up. Brian gathered the spider up and removed it easily and fearlessly! Would definitely recommend to everyone and would definitely stay again. Be forewarned the gorgeous beach is very close by but two very STEEP hills may intimidate you. Walking to the main road is also up a very steep hill - but hey you should have been getting beach body ready so it shouldn't be a problem for you :)

Beautiful large house in a great location

We were 14 family members ages 3 to 77 for a week after Christmas. The highlights are the pool and the 3rd floor deck and living room with a gorgeous view of the ocean and forest. Watching the wildlife was fantastic: caracaras came to sit on the railing, toucans and macaws regularly flew by and perched in nearby trees, and howler, capuchino, and squirrel monkeys would come to investigate. The house is huge with plenty of bedrooms and space for everyone to spread out - although we usually congregated around the pool or the large 3rd floor deck and living room. The housekeeper cleaned daily and the groundskeeper kept the pool and outdoor grill pristine. Communication with the manager was fantastic - he arranged a cook for several meals and kayak, zipline, and rafting tours and was available on short notice for questions. For example, the icemaker stopped working and he had two bags of ice delivered very quickly. There were plenty of good quality eating utensils, cups, and glasses in both the 3rd floor kitchen and in the outdoor kitchen by the pool, but - to be picky - the cooking facilities on the upper level could be upgraded for serious foodies. There are plenty of beds including 4 kings, but two small rooms have double beds that -if you have a large group like ours - may not seem as attractive as the king rooms. But, in the end, everyone was happy with their sleeping arrangements. Overall, it was a terrific, no-worry week.
