Feeding animals can disrupt their natural behavior and harm their health. They’re monkeys, lizards, raccoons, birds and occasionally a cat or two that roam the property grounds. Please make sure to keep a distance as these are wild animals.

Quiet Hours: Please be mindful of your noise level, especially between 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM. Keep in mind that loud music or noise can disturb both neighbors and wildlife.

Spacious but Awkward
We loved the space, location, and quick contact with host liaison. The pool and outdoor space is beautiful. However, we didn't realize that the pool area was communal space and shared with a few other units (I'm sure we overlooked that in the descriptions) . The pool space was directly outside our living area, so it was a little awkward when other people were literally outside our door swimming.... we felt limited in how often we could sit and enjoy the outdoor area. At one point someone just opened our door and started to enter. Weird. I guess he thought it was a communal space too??? The place is dark and there wasn't sufficient lighting in my opinion, but Heidy did help me find all of the light switches, so I could get as much lighting as possible. Additionally, when we arrived several of the blinds were not working properly. Heidy did get those fixed the day after our arrival. The hot water in the main shower did not work. I reported this, but it was never fixed. The kitchen is stocked with most of what you needed but plastic cups were stained and old. I ended up drinking my wine out of coffee mugs. The location was great and we loved the amount of space in the unit. The washer and dryer were a plus. The beds were comfortable and the space was relatively clean. Once we adapted the quirks, we enjoyed our time here

Amazing location and property
This location and property are incredible. The fact that it has tall, open trees to see all three types of monkeys, Scarlet Macaws, Toucans and a creek to see basilisks running on the water and a glimpse of a tamandua at night make it ideal to experience the wildlife. We spent a ton of time just watching from the patio. This is the ideal Costa Rica VRBO. Property is well maintained and clean. We stayed in the Alma Pacifica and it was well furnished, very clean and comfortable. I have already recommended it to many friends if they ever go to Costa Rica.

Wonderful stay in paradise
The property was perfect for our family of six. Loved seeing toucans, macaws and monkeys right on the property. Nice greeting with welcome basket, beds were comfy, ac was great, property manager was very responsive and timely to requests and the view was just gorgeous. We loved it all and hate to leave Jungle Creek Villa.

Heidy is Exceptional
Our property had been sold and we were concerned about how smoothly things would go, It was seamless. Heidy the Concierge is so knowledgeable about everything Manuel Antonio. She has so many connections with the local tour companies, restaurateurs, and shopping. We avoided many typical tourist pitfalls due to her advice. She's so good at her job 24/7. Oh and the Villa was awesome too. All the amenities, fully stocked and cold a/c, lizards, monkeys and birds visited daily.
