The architecture of this villa emphasizes the natural surroundings with open-air living space and stunning views from all 4 floors and 4 bedrooms. Ideally located in a private neighborhood close to white sand beaches, the Manual Antonio National Park as well as spas, restaurants, and local markets.

Couple that with comfortable gathering spaces for quality time with loved ones and you have the perfect vacation spot.

The home stays cool from the ocean breezes and cathedral open beamed ceilings with ceiling fans. Local materials such as ceramics and bamboo are used throughout the villa, including custom built-in cabinets and handcrafted tiles. Casa Dolce Vita is a tropical retreat to delight the senses.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Enjoy your stay at the Pacific Canyon Drive villa Casa Dolce Vita, it is a beautiful private neighborhood and will make you feel right at home.

A letter from a happy guest:

Dear Valerie,
All of my family have arrived homely safely. I want to take this opportunity to thank you, Fernando, Ricky and Junior for everything you‘ve done for us at the Tree House during our stay. Considering the uncertainty and stress brought about by the Corina Crisis, your team managed to create a relaxing oasis for us, while over days we juggled airline and consulate call centers trying to secure our way back home to Europe. Your kindness won’t be forgotten. We hope to return again next year.

In the meantime, I wish you the best of health and a quick and safe return to normalcy.

Best regards,
Karen

Amazing stay
Couldn’t be happier with our choice . The villa it’s better than on the photos . Daily maid comes in a keeps it clean . The nature and view is absolutely amazing . The only downfall are the mosquitoes at night which didn’t let us stay at the kitchen and hang out as much as we wanted , but other then that our group gives it a 5 star rating !!

Amazing Views!
This property was awesome! It has amazing ocean views and is just a few minutes by car away from the beach. We were looking to see the famous/infamous monkeys and this location delivered. Note that all bedrooms are on different levels of the home so if you don't want stairs, this house is not for you.

Family Time
Our overall impression was excellent, great view and enjoyed watching birds from the kitchen/family room. Only suggestion would be to be more accurate re.. distance to beach in advertising, fairly long walk to nearest beach.

Most Amazing Vacation
The house is beautiful, the ocean view stunning, the kitchen is the finest I've cooked in and the active monkey life is part of your daily routine (not always joyous but definite monkeying around). You'll thoroughly enjoy your time in this unique home and want to return again soon. Thanks for this opportunity and we hope to be with you again. Namaste

It is a four story treehouse with beautiful bedrooms and most of all, the best view of the ocean. I traveled with 7 teenagers and they all said " it was the best house that I have ever rented." David K. Moore

Great location and experience
This property really gives you an authentic jungle home experience. We saw more nature from the villa than one would expect to see at the national park. The home was very comfortable and the kitchen was sufficiently equipped. The beds and A/C units were satisfactory for decent sleep and the unit was well maintained. The views are excellent and Manuel Antonio never disappoints. My only caution to individuals considering this property is that it is not a great property for older travelers (65+). The unit has lots of stairs and steps; and the road to the top of the street for shops and groceries is quite steep; not exactly paved. Other than this point, I would highly recommend this property. Finally, we hired Hairo as our private chef for three nights; his meals and hospitality were spectacular.

Great house for family vacation
Amazing view of the park and beach and close proximity to restaurants, grocery store, ATM, etc. Ricky took great care of us and helped with anything we needed. Kids loved all the monkey, birds and other wildlife that you could see from the living room. Will definitely book here again.

Unreal Villa Overlooking Ocean with Infinity Pool
The entire house is absolutely magical. From prior to booking, to when we arrived - Fernando, Valerie and Ricky were amazing and extremely helpful. Once arriving at the house we were given a tour and were in awe as the house was even better than pictured ! The bedrooms were all immaculate and air conditioning worked well. Having a full kitchen equipped with any and everything you could imagine was wonderful. We loved watching the monkeys come in the afternoon and put on a show for us. I would rebook in a heartbeat and plan to stay again as soon as we are able. This was the third house we have rented while visiting Manuel antonio and it was by far our favorite. I HIGHLY recommend !!

Villa DOLCE VITA
From the first minute we arrived we where warmly welcomed by our concierge and chef. They made us feel right at home helping us with any and everything thing we possibly desired. The villa was super nice and beautifully decorated. The very kind and helpful housekeeper made sure the place was kept spotless and toke care of our laundry also. Our Chef was simply amazing...we were all spoiled rotton during our stay...every meal created and served was absolutely mouth watering. From the awesome views to the lucious garden and waking up to monkies and a Tucan, this was truly an amazing expierence. We were very appriciative for everyone connected with Villa DOLCE VITA for going the extra mile on making our trip an amazing expierience. We will be back !

A Picturesque Rain forest get away fit for a King!
A stunningly beautiful and comfortable villa with breathtaking views. The daily monkey visits are an added bonus! I would strongly suggest employing the personal chef if you really want to experience the best and freshest food that Costa Rica has to offer. Ricky is an awesome host and he really went out of his way to make sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed!

Amazing house in Manuel Antonio!
We just returned from a week in Manuel Antonio with our family of 7 (4 adults and three kids, ages 15, 12 and 9). We stayed at Casa Dolce Vita and it was absolutely one of the best parts of our vacation. The house is gorgeous, the open air main living area is unique and fantastic, and the view is without a doubt the best! You can watch the sun rise and set from your living room chair! The hosts are fantastic, always available to help in any way they can, and the daily maid service is top notch (sweet, unobtrusive, and even did our laundry twice!). Can not say enough great things about this villa, recommend 100000%!
