The ultimate in technology
Casa Tranquila provides high-speed internet service with wireless capabilities. . . one of the very few homes in Manuel Antonio that does. This benefit, along with a free, direct telephone line to the US and many European countries, lets you stay in touch with your business (if you just can’t leave it behind) . . . or simply chat casually with your friends and family back home. Bring your laptop and eliminate the stress of waiting on dial-up speed that is found almost everywhere else. The Bose docking station allows you to bring all your favorite music on your own iPod.
Tailored attention assures effortless arrangements
Donald Corvette, the owner of Casa Tranquila personally guides your vacation. Weeks before your arrival, he tailors your domestic travel, adventure tours, local chefs, dinner reservations, in-home supplies and services, or any other special requests you may have. To assure your vacation details are without conflict, it is suggested you allow us to make all your event reservations. Donald’s relationships in Costa Rica guarantee you will get the best price and most reliable service. An introductory telephone call also provides tips for first-time visitors. While you are in your villa, Donald is always available to assist personally in changes, confirmations or last minute needs.

Why the Owner Chose Manuel Antonio
When you visit Costa Rica, you will find that it is the magic of the people here that will make you want to stay.
Owner's Map of Manuel Antonio
At 50, I decided I was weary of the normal corporate life in the US, and decided to make a move to follow new dreams. My amazing Border Collie, Chelsea, and I now manage Casa Tranquila . . . and are loving life here. Be careful before you come . . . these feelings are easy to catch when you are at Casa Tranquila.
