GREAT PLACE
Perfect place for our family of 8, including the 2 grandkids. The patio and pool were a hit as was the visit by the monkeys. The property manager/concierge Geralyn was great, giving us options recommendations on excursions, including a last minute change when we changed our minds.

Incredible views and plenty of monkeys
The Villa was perfect for our group of 8 and the Master bedroom design should be in a magazine - truly beautiful. The view of the Ocean and sunsets were prefect and the location was walking distance to everything we needed. I cannot compliment the staff enough between the daily maid service and super Concierge Mefi, they handled everything that we needed. We will be back!

All the best of Manuel Antonio
We loved Villa Natural. It was our first stay in Costa Rica and our first time to the area. The house itself is excellent for the area. Just as advertised with beautiful views, a great pool, great A/C, a well equipped kitchen, and as good a location as I imagine there is in the area. If I had to list any negatives I would make sure you are aware that the top and bottom levels are attached via outdoor staircases. Our young kids were tentative on night one, but quickly adjusted. We are also accustomed in the states to having washer and dryer access and doing our own housekeeping. This unit provided the service which may be a positive or negative depending on your view. We were able to walk to restaurants and shopping, our neighborhood was very safe and gated and the property is very well maintained. We could not have been happier with this place and would definitely recommend to all

Lovely villa with beautiful views
The villa is spacious and nicely decorated. The kitchen is large with everything you’ll need. Easy walking distance to a grocery store, ATM and some great restaurants. Mefi is very responsive and will quickly take care of your every need. Febe keeps things immaculate and will even do your laundry. This place is a great choice if you’re visiting Manuel Antonio.

Beautiful Property
Its a great place, we had a spectacular time. The staff and concierge were very involved. The only complaint is there is construction on both sides of the house (new houses being built) and workers are there from as early as 6 am until 6 pm everyday but Sunday. If there was not construction, It would be 5 stars

Excellent property in a wonderful location. We had 3 couples and 2 adults children. The property was ideal for a larger group or family. Loved the open main floor for socializing and the pool area for swimming and sitting out an enjoying the beautiful views. The property was very clean. Easy access to restaurants and the local bus line which we used a lot to go to the beach and Quepos - the local city. Geralyn (our host and planner) was excellent!!!!!! She was very responsive and helpful in planning our excursions and travel connections. Would highly recommend this property.

5 STARS! Outstanding Property & Concierge
Our stay in Villa Natura could not have been any better. The home is beautiful, well kept and has the most beautiful views. We loved they layout of the home as it provided some privacy for the parents and the kids. The woodwork in the home was amazing. We were able to open the doors/windows and get the most amazing breeze. Also, our property manager, Geralyn, was very responsive and extremely accommodating. She made our experience even better. If I could give more than 5 Stars I would!

Beautiful property with all the right touches!
We had a lovely two week stay in this modern villa, which was perfect for a family vacation. The kids slept downstairs and my husband and I had the beautiful master suite on the main floor. The pool was a big hit with everyone. The views are magnificent and the location is central to restaurants, shopping and walking to the beach. It is quite hilly, so the cheap and dependable public transportation is quite useful. The property is well maintained. The kitchen was lovely to cook in and we often bought fresh fish and vegetables at markets which were great on the grill. The staff was delightful and very accommodating. Services included cleaning, laundry, transportation, excursions and anything else we needed. I highly recommend this property and plan on booking it again myself!

Beautiful home!
We enjoyed our stay very much! The house was as described, very roomy and the furniture very nice quality. The kitchen and bathrooms were beautiful. The A/C works great. The master room bed was super comfortable. We enjoyed a dinner by one the chefs and it was very enjoyable. There was construction as previously mentioned in other reviews. Two out of the three days we had a jack hammer going all day. But, the owner kindly made us aware of this beforehand and offered a discount should we wish to stay as planned. Since we were touring most of the day it was of little consequence. I felt it was very fair. If you plan to sit all day by the beautiful pool, it may be another matter.

Beautiful Spot
We had a wonderful 5 days with our family. Extremely clean, great service and well appointed kitchen. Beds were very comfortable and plenty of bath towels. Concierge service was terrific. A couple small things to note. While the view is great, the pictures are framed very well to now show a large rooftop that does take a lot of the view away. Also pics do not show that you are right next to other homes on all sides. Still very nice but slightly misleading. While it was certainly a 5 star stay there are a couple things we would do. First is add beach towels to the inventory list. They have a lot of bath and pool towels but ask that you do not bring them to the beach. A set of separate beach towels would be nice. We would also have more seating out by the pool. Only 2 lounge chairs were in high demand. Also would add some nicer seating up at the top view area as there was only one working chair. Finally we kept talking about how much a hammock or two would have been perfect out on the balcony. These are all small areas for improvement. Overall a wonderful place!

Some good, some not so good
The good: Wonderful home, very clean and nice! Great pool, Great view. We enjoyed our time at this home as a whole. The not so good: The 'Daily Maid Service' was once in the 5 days we were there, not that big of a deal but don't advertise daily if its not. For our situation going outside, out the front door downstairs and in the front door to the 4 bedrooms didn't let us use the master bedroom since we couldn't leave our kids seperated at night...Different for different families but for ours it wasn't clear and wasn't the best. The Concierge will tell you exactly how much to tip him and the maid....kinda weird, we've never had that come up, and the amount was HIGH. He was ALWAYS asking us what he could book for us, we were happy booking things on our own, it was much easier and cheaper that way! There is a Ring Camera overlooking the pool...no other cameras looking over the entryway or anything...only the pool. Another thing we didn't like so much. Overall we had a great time but would find a different rental next time

Fantastic Holiday
Our family of seven had a fantastic time staying at this home over Christmas. We were greeted by Mefi, our concierge. He was very thorough in welcoming us and introducing us to the area. I felt he went above and beyond when he had me get in his car and then drive me around since I was unfamiliar with the area. He pointed out the restaurants and the beaches and their different access points. We ate at most of his recommendations for restaurants and they were all fantastic! The house is located in the heart of Manuel Antonio, so there are probably 5 or 6 great restaurant choices all within walking distance. We did rent a car, which I would highly recommend for this area if you want to go to the beach frequently. The house has a magnificent view of the ocean, but it is down a the mountain to get there. This is just how Manuel Antonio is . . . the houses and hotels are on the hillside, and the beaches are down at the bottom. I felt bad for those people who walked to the beach. The housekeeper, Ismaria, was also fantastic. She cleaned, did our laundry, and was so pleasant. On Christmas Eve, we hired one of the chefs that Mefi recommended -- Jeinor. He made us a fantastic dinner for our "noche buena" celebration. This was the trip of a lifetime for our family. We made great memories here. I would highly recommend this place for families.

Bumpy start to an excellent stay
We had a great stay at Villa Natura. The villa was beautiful with great views. It was clean and well cared for. Our start was rough though... In Costa Rica the roads and houses aren't numbered/labeled. We landed in Quepos around 4:30p. We had a rental car at the airport and proceeded to a grocery to get food for our stay. We communicated with Geralyn, the concierge, that we were going to make it to the villa around 6:30p. Once into Manuel Antonio we couldn't find the road and our GPS in the rental was useless becasue there was no good destination to put in (Use Waze). We tried to call Geralyn but her VM answered in spanish. We drove down several roads trying to get the correct one. On the 4th try I pulled to the side and realized I had nowhere for my family to sleep. We pulled back out to the main road and tried again to call. She answered, switched to video and was able to guide us in. It's then I learned she wasn't at the villa. She gave us a code to get in. I got my family in and tried to sleep with shot nerves. That was the bad. From there the trip was amazing. We had everything we needed. The maid service (Janet) came two days during our six day stay which worked perfect. She ran a bit of laundry each time for us. After our first night we always felt safe. Anyone making the trip should request very detailed instructions for finding the correct road. The go and enjoy the time of your life!

Outstanding home!
This home is simply stunning, with fine craftsmanship throughout and a spectacular view. We spent a lot of time on both sides of the breakfast bar! Location is perfect as well...you can walk to several great restaurants and drive a short distance to many more. There are also a few grocery stores in the area, and a five minute or so drive to the National Park. There was a very detailed guide book in the house, and Mefi is also a great source of information before and during your stay. The Can-Am off-road tour was quite fun! The construction on both sides of the house was unfortunate, but Pablo at CRVacation Properties handled the situation very professionally, and we appreciated knowing ahead of time so we could adjust our expectations accordingly. Wildlife viewing was limited to a few birds and lizards, likely due to the construction noise as well as loss of trees. One thing that should be added to the property description is that the three bedrooms on the lower level are separate from the main home and master bedroom...there is no interior staircase. I spent the first night on one of the twin beds because my daughter was nervous. By the second night, we discovered that she could use the intercom on the cordless phone if she needed us. There is a small living area, coffee station and mini-fridge on the lower level. We only cooked breakfast, but the kitchen was very well equipped, including coffee, sugar, and spices. There were plenty of bath and pool towels, and two beach towels. Also plenty of soap and paper products as well as toiletries in each bathroom, which was a nice touch. We did need some laundry done on our cleaning day. We really didn't want to trouble the housekeeper with it on a holiday weekend, but there was no access to the washer and dryer, so I couldn't do it myself. In any case, it was nice to come back to clean and folded laundry and a once-again spotless house. Overall, we had a very nice stay in this well-appointed home, and appreciate the care and attention from the whole team. Thank you!
