The Most Romantic Villa is located between Manuel Antonio and Quepos, Costa Rica. Both towns are located on the Central Pacific Coast, less than 100 miles from the capital of San José. Enjoy balmy year-round temperatures that average from 81⁰ to 86⁰F (27 to 30⁰C) and year-round 85⁰F (29.5⁰C) ocean waters.
Manuel Antonio is Costa Rica’s honeymoon capital and most exotic tropical destination. The Manuel Antonio area combines timeless tropical scenery and one of the most beautiful white sand beaches in Costa Rica which has, as backdrop, emerald-green forests and lush hillsides. The public beach of Playa Espadilla offers excellent swimming, rental of beach chairs, sun umbrellas, kayaks, snorkeling equipment, boogie boards and surfing lessons. You will also have access to international restaurants, spas, galleries and up to date services. There are plenty of places to eat in or near Manuel Antonio, ranging from small “sodas” offering Costa Rican local dishes, to five-star dining restaurants.
At the villa, you are just minutes away from Manuel Antonio National Park, one of the world’s most spectacular rain forest nature reserves. With its tropical trails, stunning white-sand beaches, coral reefs and tidal pools, this land-and-maritime Park is a stand out jewel in a country famous for its natural beauty.
The Park includes four picture-perfect beaches, each with its own personality. Anyone with a snorkel and mask will be mesmerized by the aquatic life around the coral reefs and submerged volcanic rocks that line the coast between the Park and Quepos. Manuel Antonio National Park is home to an astonishing variety of tropical wildlife. Explore the Park on a well-established network of trails. The most interesting trail is the small loop that takes you around Punta Cathedral, with its breathtaking view of the Pacific. Be on the lookout for hundreds of species of animals and birds, including White-faced (caphuchin) monkeys, squirrel monkeys, howler monkeys, coatimundis, agoutis, two and three-toed sloths, toed anteaters, iguanas, marmomsets, ocelots, river otters, pacas and spectacled caimans, land crabs, parrots, brown pelicans, brown boobies, tyrant hawl-eagles, gray-headed chachalacas, soalter’s ant birds, toucans, and scarlet macaws.
(Guest recommendation - For any excursion to Manuel Antonio Park and the Rainmaker Tour, make sure you book Josue. Our Villa House Manager will take care of this for you.)
Located on a tropical inlet just minutes from the Villa, Quepos is a small booming harbor town famous for being one of the best places in the world for big-game sport fishing. The newly developing Marina Pez Vela has amazing restaurants and specialty stores. Shop at the Farmer's Market every Friday evening or Saturday morning. With a variety of outdoor adventure and nightlife, the bustling village center composes six blocks of restaurants, bars, hotels, art galleries and gift shops, all resting beside the main beach and sport fishing fleet.
Less than two hours away, you will find Carara National park where you will experience biodiversity at its best! This 4700-hectare park is the northern-most tropical wet forest on the Pacific Coast. Hike with your naturalist guide through the reserve, and admire views of surrounding rice fields, palm plantations and cattle ranches. Crocodiles can often be spotted in the nearby Rio Tarcoles!
In addition to all of this, our Villa House Manager can assist you with booking a multitude of nearby activities including … Snorkeling, Scuba Diving, Surfing, Sunset Sails, Sport Fishing, Ocean Kayaking, Dolphin and Whale Watching Tours, River Rafting, Canopy/Zip-Line Tours, Suspension Bridge Tours, Horseback Riding, Waterfall Tours, ATV Tours, Bird Watching and many more. (Consult your on-site Villa Handbook for further information.)
The best of ALL worlds!

***It is advised to rent a small or regular size 4x4 to navigate the driveway up to the villa and to make your trips to the local beaches, restaurants and grocery stores. We are located on a steep hill with a switch back driveway and walking to these amenities is not recommended.***

Wonderful Stay

The Most Romantic Villa is a beautiful property located on the main road leading to Manuel Antonio. Everything we wanted/needed was within a 10 minute drive and, other than my initial fear driving up the steep driveway to the property, everything was perfect. The ACs worked great, the pool was relaxing, and the views were amazing. There was even a huge iguana that slid down the power lines one morning to munch on foliage by the pool! Can't wait to return!

Mountain Villa

This villa is as advertised. We could not tell from the photos if it’s private but it is VERY private and the views are spectacular. The drive off the main road is very tricky as it’s 45 degree angles of hillside with 30 degree turns. You will need a 4wd vehicle to go up and down the street to the main road. The pool and outdoor lounge areas are terrific.

Amazing Stay!!!

The pictures don’t do justice of how beautiful this villa is. The staff was friendly and very responsive, and helped with booking activities and accommodating requests. The private chef’s meal was unbelievable with a beautiful sunset in the background. The only thing I would suggest is renting your own 4x4 vehicle instead of relying on taxis. But overall, an amazing stay and highly recommend!!

An Unforgettable Romantic Getaway

My husband and I are well-traveled, and this property was the perfect way to end our Costa Rica trip — luxurious, romantic, and surrounded by nature. The drive up was a bit tricky, but with a 4x4 rental, it was manageable, and the views at the top were more than worth it. Maria was incredibly friendly and met us at the entrance to guide us up, which was really appreciated.The villa itself was pristine and luxurious, with an infinity pool overlooking the ocean — a view we’ll never forget. We loved spotting wildlife right from the property, including iguanas, scarlet macaws, yellow-throated toucans, and hummingbirds. The fully equipped kitchen made cooking a breeze, and having a coffee maker with a built-in filter was a great touch for morning coffee.We spent one day in Quepos for souvenirs, but honestly, we could’ve stayed on the property for the entire two days. The kitchen even had a blender, so we had fun mixing up some Pina Coladas with Costa Rican rum by the pool.This stay was the perfect finale to our trip — a dream come true. Thank you for such a memorable experience!

Amazing place!!!

This was our second time staying here and we plan on being back. This property is the most picturesque VRBO we have ever stayed at. Amazing sunsets every night, private chef you can take advantage of, effective AC and fans, comfortable bed, good water pressure - all the little things that matter. We rented a car for the flexibility but you could also have them arrange an airport transport and taxi's during your stay. Maria is readily available and responsive. As others have noted, the drive up is quite steep and windy but you get used to it quickly.

Wonderful accommodations and concierge service! We were mesmerized sitting by the infinity pool overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Maria, our concierge, was very helpful, kind and responsive. She was always ready to support us and guide us in choosing activities or catching a cab. If you get a car, it has to be 4x4. The driveway from the main road is steep and has sharp corners. This was the second time we have stayed here and want to come back. We highly recommend staying here!

Why they chose this property

Before purchasing this property, we rented it twice. We were enticed by the privacy, the relaxing infinity edge pool and the amazing ocean views. We have also stayed at other rentals in the area. We fell in love with the location because it has retained much of its local flavor while still providing all the modern conveniences, its unlimited choice in restaurants, and the multitude of activities available.

What makes this property unique

Private villa, private infinity edge pool, amazing ocean views, perfect location to all amenities.
