We believe our Guest Comments provide the best description:
"From the bottom of our heart, thank you for a remarkable week in your beautiful country.
My wife, the boys and I had one of the best vacations of our lives. Everything about the experience was perfect.Without Victor, the house manager’s help and insight, we never would have done and appreciated so many of the wonderful adventures we undertook. His thoughtfulness and concern with my son’s 1st day sunburn helped a bad situation be a short one. Victor is a consummate host with a genuine spirit. Over the chef’s, cooking skills were only surpassed by his personality. Every course of every meal was a memorable experience. We felt pampered to the point of being spoiled. The housekeeper's hard work in cleaning up after us made us feel like we were staying in a new, spotless villa every day. I travel to every corner of the world for many years on business trips. My wife and I have vacationed in Asia, Europe, Mexico and North America. But nothing, truly nothing, compares to the beauty, quality,joy and first class service we enjoyed at Villa Perezoso. I will recommend it to everyone I know, but….
save another week for us!"

“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 (Nov '08)
“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 (Nov. '08)
"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 (Feb. '09)

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!
