We believe our Guest Comments provide the best description (read more on our website):
“A brilliant combination of the luxury, amenities and service of a high end resort and the intimacy and personal touch of, what feels for your stay, like your very own Villa in the Tropics.” Nick & Gillian K., Calistoga, CA
“There are not too many places on Earth that you can be plopped down in the middle of a jungle, amazed with the wonderment of monkeys, sloths, toucans, iguanas and various other exotic animals climbing and flying around you , and also enjoy the amenities of a hot shower, multi-course amazing meals and spa treatments etc. I simply did not want to leave. Absolutely wonderful. I was so pleased with the beach, the many available excursions, the wonderfully friendly Costa Rican people and at the end of the day came home to a top notch Villa staffed with accommodating and friendly people and amenities of any Western hotel..cell phone reception, satellite TV and internet access. Simply terrific." Chris M., S.J., CA
"Lake Como was the most beautiful on earth until I came to Villa Perezoso! Making monkey, sloth and toucan friends right outside my very window. The beauty of the water and nature is of course beyond compare, but Victor and Over's grand service with a smile ensures that paradise is here on Earth. Thank you." Tina M.-S.F., CA

Why the Owner Chose Manuel Antonio
To us, Manuel Antonio is as close to paradise as it gets. Our dream was to someday live in a tropical haven, near the beach and somewhere not too far from "home" (California). Having traveled nearly all the continents and vacationed on many of the worlds' best islands and tropical destinations, upon arriving in Manuel Antonio in November of 2003, we knew we had to live there someday. Not only was the place magical, the views heavenly, the beaches some of the best we've ever encountered but the friendliness of the people of Costa Rica, their emphasis on preserving their beautiful country, we knew when we arrived that we were hooked and that we wanted to make Costa Rica our next home. We found a gorgeous property with some of the best views we have encountered, bought it and started building. With Bali being another favorite destination of ours, we wanted to bring what we loved about Bali to Costa Rica--from the feeling of living outdoors to using natural materials and woods and stones to the top notch service they provide their guests. Our architect did a beautiful job taking our vision and in creating Villa Perezoso(named for the resident sloth), with every room having furniture and accessories custom built for the property and had it transported to Costa Rica. It was a labor of love building it from the ground up and we love the finished product as do our guests.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
What we love most about the Villa is its uniqueness. From the views, to the monkeys, sloths and birds who frequent the property, to the wonderful staff, to the extra touches our staff offers our guests, the privacy and grandness of the space makes it feel very special. We built the property specifically designed for the comfort of accomodating guests year round. From the high thread count linens and plush towels and down comforters, to the flowers in every room, all the amenities one could need being available, is what our guests say have them wanting to return again and again. The BEST thing however, is the staff. Unlike any other villa, the property was built with a separate live-in quarters for the house manager who has been with us for years (we hired him at the beginning of the construction) and he is available to our guests 24/7 to meet any and all of your needs. And as far as our brilliant chef....he too has a wonderful personality and a great talent in the kitchen and he is part of our staff (all the other villas offer this at an extra cost). What our guests love about him (you can read more on our testimonials page on our website) is that the shopping, cooking, and clean up is all taken care of by him! A true vacation experience (and his top notch, delicious food is better than most of the restaurants)! We also love that nature beckons right outside, I personally love the monkey visits and am always excited upon seeing a "perezoso" (sloth) outside the nearby guarumo tree. If I could pick out two of my favorite things about Villa Perezoso they would be 1) the staff and how they spoil us and our guests and 2) the openness of each room (especially the bathrooms with floor to ceiling glass doors that open up allowing you to shower while looking out to the vast jungle and Pacific ocean. Its a slice of paradise found!

Review Submitted: 10/29/11
We looked at a lot of villas and homes in Costa Rica and was I happy we chose this villa. What a WOW experience. First, its a beautiful setting overlooking the jungle and ocean and a prime location near Manuel Antonio. Second, its a great place for a group or family. My family visited (2 children) with my brother and his family (1 child) - lots of room to spread out and "be alone", combined with common areas to hang out together. Plus Victor, the house manager, is a lovely man - and just handled our every need. and the villa also comes with a cook. Ober, the chef, a deligntful man, who surprised us every meal with a different combination of top quality food - one of my children is vegetarian and the other can't eat wheat - and he was able to accommodate these restrictions with ease. I can't say enough about this place. 5 star rating.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.
Looking forward to returning

I have been many beautiful places but never before had I recieved "red carpet" treatment as I did while visiting Villa Perezoso with my friends. Victor (house manager) is nothing short of a blessing. He had great suggestions of things to do and went above and beyond to make us comfortable. Chef Over makes culinary masterpieces and his cooking is the best I have had in a long time. Ceclia was very friendly and made our stay a comfortable one because she kept the Villa immaculately clean and entertained my new and emerging Spanish speaking skills. In fact, Victor, Over, and Cecilia all helped me put my spanish speaking skills to good use and Victor's bi-lingual abilities came in handy in the Villa and about town. Stay here....you won't be disappointed from the GREAT staff, great food, great view and the incredible vibe and love put into this Villa. The Villa is well furnished and the zen vibe will relax you as will the staff. They really embody the meaning of "Pura Vida".
Owner response:We are so very happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. Our team is fabulous aren't they? We work very hard at creating the perfect vacation experience for our guests, even traveling as far as Bali to furnish and decorate the Villa! Thank you for choosing us.

"Where do I even begin to express how much fun we had and how nice the house was??? We were greeted after our drive to a wonderful retreat. We all slept so good and felt very rested. The beds are awesome. Cecelia, the housekeeper is wonderful. I enjoyed Over teaching us cooking tips that I can hopefully use at home. Thank you. What a great treat for a busy mom like me. I totally feel pampered, spoiled. This was a dream destination for me and it was so worth it. Thanks again to everyone who came together to make it all work perfectly. "

"Thank you so much for the fabulously wonderful stay~what an amazing experience~the nature, the surroundings, the gorgeous villa with all the amenities and excellent service. We had a unique and relaxing time that we soon won't forget.The national park was amazing, the canopy tour adventurous and phenomenal and of course Mari's chairs and Ray's drinks on the beach unparalleled. Thank you Victor, Over and Cecelia for creating such an indelible memory~the howlers, capuchin, toucans just added to the charm and wonder of Villa Perezoso."

"Thank you so much for an incredible week! Everything was amazing. From the fancy drink upon arrival to the wonderful dinners, beautiful touches to the accomodations, to the professional activity advice. Everything far exceeded our expectations. We are so sad to be leaving this paradise. It has truely been a wonderful vacation. This house is beautiful, there was not a single element missing. Everything was well thought out. It was perfect for our family vacation. Victor's professional manner, advice and friendliness were greatly appreciated. Over's amazing breakfasts and dinners were 5 star. Everyone was right, who would want to go out to eat if you have Over as a chef? Simply amazing. Cecelia made our accomodations special. She does a wonderful job. We will miss her special touches. Thank you for sharing your special place with us. It is truly a paradise. We look forward to returning."

"How do we begin to thank you for this awe-inspiring experience. What you have done with your home and what your staff did to make this above, all hands down, the best, was very much appreciated. The views are so impressive they make me want to cry. The staff is superb and so much a part of why our trip was so extraordinary. Thank you for sharing with us this slice of heaven. It makes you really step and look at your life and strive to attain "pura vida". The recommendations for excursions were wonderful. The white water rafting trip to Rafiki and the zip line tour were amazing. It was wonderful how Victor was always there to guide us daily and was so attentive to our needs. We truly enjoyed his company and his kindness will not be forgotten."

I just returned from beautiful Costa Rica. Our week at "Villa Perezoso" was exceptional...on all fronts! Exquisite house with breathtaking views and breezes! The stay was perfection...from the moment we were met with big smiles and cool drinks....the chef is amazing...freshest ingredients...served with style and elegance...clearly they love their work and take pride in their product. We rented the villa with 3 bedrooms and were so happy with our accomodations...all the creature comforts of a fine hotel, but in the middle of "the jungle" atmosphere! There is so much to do if one wants to venture out, but for those who want quiet time around the pool with that great book you have the view of the pacific high above the breaking waves. A vacation to remember!
Owner response:So glad you all had a good stay. Hope to have you back soon.

There were six of us in our group (3 couples). From the time we arrived until we departed we were pampered and taken care of. House Manager Victor, Chef Over and Housekeeper Cecelia were very warm, hospitable and very dependable. Each day we awoke to the sounds of the howler monkeys, then watched the white faced monkeys enjoy their breakfasts in the trees, and saw many different exotic local birdlife--all from the Villa! On our walks we saw more monkeys including squirrel monkeys (thanks to Victor for letting us know where to look), lizards and iguanas. When at the beach we were treated to chairs, umbrellas and beverages by Marife and Rey (Victor's recommendation). The tours Victor set up were outstanding and he never left anything to chance. Chef Over's meals were incredible--there is no reason to eat elsewhere! Breakfasts always started with a platter of local fresh fruit unlike anything we eat at home. We were encouraged to make meal requests and Chef Over and Victor executed all with great care using only the freshest ingredients. We slept very well in our lovely canopy beds and our bath showers overlooked the garden off the deck. Cecelia took excellent care with the housekeeping including daily towel figures on our beds. And, we enjoyed massages in our suites by Sylvia. The staff, the location, the decor, the food, the whole experience were outstanding!
