Why our condo rather than a hotel?
Our condo offers the luxuries, comfort, privacy and space of a fine home. For those of you traveling in groups of two to six, this is an ideal place for time together, as well as time apart from other tourists and visitors.
*Follow the early morning acrobatics of the Cappuchin monkeys from one of the private bedroom balconies while enjoying a cup of Costa Rican coffee.
*Watch the stunning sunsets with your family and friends over appetizers and drinks from the living room or wide balcony with seating for six.
*Relax under the vast night sky and stars, listening to the sounds of the ocean.
*Does life get any better than this?
AFFORDABILITY:
Our two-bedroom condo is more affordable than two rooms in a comparable four-five star hotel. If you value the options of a fully furnished kitchen, spacious living room and utility room with a washer and dryer (imagine going home with a suitcase of clean clothes!) this is the place for you.
LOCATION:
Nestled in the tropical rainforest with fabulous views of the ocean and mountains.
Walk to Biesanz Beach in 10 minutes or Espidilla Beach in 20 minutes.

My family stayed here 1/28 to 2/4/2012 and we loved it. We have a 6 and 8 year old boy who came with us and having the pool right there is a big bonus. The condo itself is very nice and clean. The bedrooms are spacious each with its own nice bath. The full kitchen is a huge bonus as we ate many meals in the condo. The location is great with a short walk to a small local beach and pretty much in the middle of Manuel Antonio with all of its activities and restaurants. The setting of the condo itself is beautiful as it is off of the main road. I would recommend renting a car as walking along the narrow roads is not wise - we flew to Quepos and had good luck renting from Budget which is adjacent to the airstrip. Thanks David, we hope to return in the not too distant future.

Perfect Manuel Antonio Accommodation

We spent 10 days in this fabulous condo in January 2012 and it was perfect. The facility is new and beautifully appointed. Each bedroom had its own en-suite bath and balcony which gave everyone the privacy and space they needed. Tremendous ocean views from all rooms, and a great, well-stocked kitchen. It feels very remote yet wonderful restaurants are within a mile of the condo. The restaurant at the adjoining Suu Hotel is handy and delicious. And who could resist the adorable white-faced monkey family that visited everyday? My only regret was not renting a car. Taxis don't always cruise that area because the road dead-ends at the Parador Hotel below, and it was inconvenient (and a little pricey) calling for a car all the time.

Our family of four stayed at this condo in December 2011. The condo is as promised. It was much more spacious than the pictures indicate. The room sizes were large and it was beautifully decorated. The kitchen was well stocked with spices and all the tools needed to make a gourmet meal. The views are breathtaking. This location was awesome. We had views of the mountains, the ocean and jungle. What more could anyone want?! The monkeys were a delight and the howler monkeys could be heard at different times during the day. The beach was beautiful although the pathway was intimidating at first. Once I walked it once or twice, I was fine. This condo was within reasonable distance to everything. I thank you for the welcoming fruit and the coffee. We arrived around 8 at night and were exhausted. It was nice to know we had something to wake up to since we didn't get to stop at the grocery store. Estela is a gem and I feel like a have a friend for life. Thank you to the davids and estela. When we return, we will stay here. perfect.

Our family had a wonderful time in Manuel Antonio. The Condo we stayed in was beautiful. Everything we needed was there; it was safe, clean and very comfortable. The pool, beach and local hotel service was great. Estela service was fabulous. She made us feel welcome and had some good suggestions on places to go, restaurants and the Salsa Dip she brought us one night was outstanding. Estela was so helpful even before we arrived quickly responding to any questions we had and it was great having a “local” contact just a phone call away. She was very thankful for the Mahi-Mahi we gave her after our deep sea fishing trip too! Everything we did there including, Deep Sea Fishing, Zip Line, visiting the Manual Antonio Park, Snorkeling, beaches etc were safe and top notch! David’s email prior to our visit was so helpful and we referred back to it the entire trip to plan our daily events. Thank you Estela and David for a trip our family will never forget and we would recommend our friends and family to visit again.

If you have never rented from VRBO, I suggest you do it! We had a wonderful experience at Manual Antonio! Prior to leaving, David sent us an email with everything we needed to know: directions to get there, where to eat, places to go, etc. When we arrived, Estela was there to help us with anything we needed. FYI, there is parking right behind the unit, and there are no stairs between the parking lot and condo. There is a paved hill to get down to the pool and restaurant, but the Suu staff will pick you up in a golf cart if needed. The condo is SO much better than a hotel, but you have the resort amenities to use – the best of both! It looks just like the photos – everything very clean, and kept up! We read the reviews before we came, and all the comments are true – no exaggerations! This is the place to stay!

Fabulous Condo, Great Amenities, Awesome Staff

The condo had EVERYTHING and more. Comfortable accomodations, fully stocked kitchen that allowed us to bring fresh fish back and cook, beach towels, rafts, even bug spray. Loved that I could do laundry and come home with a suitcase full of clean clothes. AMAZING views. We were able to walk easily to Beisanz Beach and the Parador. The restaurant/pool staff was friendly and helpful. Most helpful was Estela. I felt like I had a friend in Manuel Antonio. She was able to arrange tours, dinner reservations, whatever you might need. I would 100 percent recommend staying at this condo. I can't wait to return.

Costa Rican Retreat!

Our Family spent 4 wonderful days staying in this luxurious condo. As soon as we walked in the door we were swept away by the breath-taking views. The condo is spacious, in a great location, and has every amenity you could possibly want or need. We enjoyed having Biesanz Beach (a very calm, uncrowded beach) within walking distance from the condo. There is so much to see and experiece in Manuel Antonio ( hiking, rappeling waterfalls, zip-lining, horseback riding, etc.) and after all that adventure everyday, there's nothing more relaxing than coming home to this tropical paradise. We highly recommend this condo and want to thank "The Davids" for sharing their home with us.

A Luxurious Piece of Paradise

Our stay in your beautiful condo was all too brief. The website cannot do justice to the luxurious feel of the condo and its magnificent view. We so enjoyed the balconies, views of the water and monkeys in the trees. The owners and manager were so helpful in sorting out any issues we had and made our stay so fulfilling. We only wish we could have stayed longer. We had great accommodations throughout Costa Rica but this was by far the most luxurious and we all slept the best. I highly recommend a stay of any length possible. Susan, Dan and family. July 2011.

My husband & our 2 boys ages 12 & 6 spent 8 fabulous days at this condo. From the well appointed kitchen, to all the little details that made you feel right at home, we truly had an incredible time. David provided us with all the information needed for our stay prior to arriving and Estela made sure we were taken care of while we we were there. ( Estela brought over her infamous Chimichurri one night, which was delish!) It was such a treat drinking coffee on the balcony in the mornings, while watching the monkeys play in the trees & the toucans & beautiful birds fly around! We all enjoyed having Biesanz & La Playitas beach so close to condo.(within walking distance) On the days we were not on a tour or at MA Park, this condo was just great to come back to. We made wonderful memories and will definitely be back next year. Pura Vida sums up our experience here!

Whether your travel plans call for two nights or two weeks, this spacious condo is sure to suit your needs. Each bedroom is equipped with large walk-in closets, huge showers, and king size beds. If you love watching the sunset, look no further! The best seat in the house can be found from one of the three terraces - you chose! Alongside the friendly staff and concierge, this Costa Rican retreat is truly a home away from home! The grounds are well maintained, the amenities are fabulous, and the view from the infiniti pool is incredible. There is also poolside service with cool beverages, tasty snacks, or a full service menu. While you are just minutes away from the beach, I would suggest taking a Zipline excursion or planning a tour through the National Park. Kayaking, Horseback Riding, and Safari tours are also just a phone call away. The concierge desk is ready and willing to assist with any requests. There are also endless restaurants, bars, and coffee shops for the foodies. There is also a grocery store nearby for those that prefer dining in. Whatever your heart desires, The SUU Hotel/Condo is sure to make a reality. To describe this place in one word - "Amazing!" What are you waiting for? Book your trip today!
