Lovely villa for two couples

Casa Aguilita lived up to all expectations as a place for two couples to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversaries. The modern, airy design with dramatic views in all directions through glass walls makes a stunning setting. The common space and kitchen are small, but the patio options for lounging, grilling, dining, hammock napping, pool dipping, sauna soaking, bird watching and sunset gazing abound. The owners, Mary and Lee, have thought of everything that would make their guests most comfortable. They were close at hand with suggestions and help with reservations for anything we wanted to do.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: Thank you to our anniversary couples! We loved the fact that you enjoyed the flora and fauna of Costa Rica as much as we do. It was great to to get to know you and help you have a wonderful time here. We really enjoyed talking with you and discussing your experiences and adventures. Hope to see you sometime in the future. All our best, Mary and Lee

My wife and I just spent 7 nights at Casa Aguilita as guests of Lee and Mary. I can summarize our thoughts as follows: all the nice things written about the house, the views, and Mary and Lee are true. The same goes for the stunning photos. All true and accurate. If you go, you will not be disappointed with the location and the proximity to interesting things to see and do.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: We enjoyed having you stay with us. It was so great to talk to you about the birds, animals and architecture. Hope the rest of your trip was enjoyable. Please stay in touch. all our best, Mary and Lee

We just returned from a week at Casa Aguilita and we can’t say enough positive things about our experience there. The house is lovely - the pictures online are really accurate - and the ocean and mountain views are spectacular. Mary and Lee are wonderful hosts. They were always available for suggestions or advice when we asked, and they provided an extremely comprehensive guide to local activities, restaurants, wildlife, and plants when we wanted to set out on our own. If you don’t like the idea of sitting in your pool or Jacuzzi and gazing out at miles of Pacific ocean, or waking up to the sight of cloud fragments tucked among faraway mountains, then this isn’t the house for you. But if you do, well, don’t hesitate.Owner response: Thank you Kelley and Steve and Henry and Anna and Eleanor for staying with us and thank you for your remarks. It was wonderful to talk to you about all of your experiences. Your enjoyment of the beautiful vistas at Casa Aguilita, your adventures zip-lining, Anna with her big smile in the natural pool at Rainmaker, Eleanor with her seafood cigars at Kapi Kapi....this makes us happy. We are so pleased that you enjoyed Costa Rica and Casa Aguilita. Your family is always welcome with us! all our best, Mary and Lee

My husband and I stayed at Casa Aguilita for a week in July, and loved everything about our trip! The house and surrounding area was every bit as beautiful as it is in the pictures. The views were stunning, the ocean on one side of the house and the mountains on the other, even from the jacuzzi! A fully stocked kitchen, library, and DVD collection made us feel right at home, but better! On top of the house being so beautiful and comfortable, Mary and Lee were full of information on everything from local wildlife to the best restaurants - we wouldn't have had half the trip without their input. The house is halfway between Quepos and Manuel Antonio, making it a short car ride to either town. I would recommend the house to anyone looking for a relaxing, luxurious getaway, and can't wait to visit again in the next couple of years!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: It was so great to host the two of you. We loved the fact that you were so happy with all the little extras and the wildlife. It's warm and caring people like you that make us really glad that we have our beautiful Casa Aguilita and gorgeous views to share with others. We hope you will be able to come back to see us. All our best, Mary and Lee

Casa Aguilita was a wonderful find! Spectacular views and decor! My boyfriend, myself, my son and boyfriend's nephew truly enjoyed staying at Casa Aguilita. It was a trip of lifetime!! We arrived at there during the evening so we could not really enjoy the amazing views. As I headed out of the house to the balcony in the morning to enjoy my coffee. The view brought tears to my eyes. I could not believe the beautiful views of the valley, mountains and pacific ocean from the house. The photos truly do not do it justice! Mary and her husband were fabulous and made us feel very much at home. Mary helped us with arranging airport transportation, excursions, beaches and resteraunt locations. One of the most spectacular vacations I have ever had! We will defintiely be back to visit and stay at Casa Aguilta. Thank you Mary for everything!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: Thank you for your thoughtful remarks. We are very happy to hear that you were pleased with Casa Aguilita. You and your boyfriend are such a sweet couple, and the boys were great. We would love to have you back again. It was especially nice the morning you told me about the views bringing tears to your eyes! That made our day! We look forward to seeing you again in the future. warm regards, Mary and Lee

Must see in person - the pictures can't fully convey the amazing design of this casa and the incredible views of mountains and sea from this perch. We couldn't believe this house was available as a rental. The hosts and owners, Mary & Lee, should take all the credit for selecting the architect, overseeing the great design, outfitting the house with luxury amenities and providing guidebooks, advice, and hospitality. They are wonderful! Great for two couples, a family with older children, or your own private romantic getaway (as we did). Chefs available to cook onsite and serve in your private outdoor dining room. Sunrise and sunset views. Close to restaurants & nightlife as well as day activities and beach. Do recommend you have a car but taxis are also available for going out at night.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

We honeymooned at Casa Aguilita and could not have been more pleased! This is one of the most amazing luxury rental houses we have ever stayed in. The location was private and serene but close to all the restaurants, action and beach in Manuel Antonio. Mary and Lee are the sweetest most accomodating hosts. They are there to guide you and advise but are very sensitive to privacy and providing all the little details that make the house so comfortable. The people in this area really love their little slice of paradise and love to share it with visitors. This is an amazing destination!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We went to Casa Aguilita for part of our Honeymoon and had any amazing time. Mary and Lee (the owners of the house) were very hospitable and were always willing to help with questions or give us recommendations. They gave us a list of top notch tours and activities (we came with no agenda and plans and this made it very easy to jump right in). The views from the house are priceless. You will not find any better in Manuel Antonio. Each bedroom has a view of either the rainforest or the sea. The kitchen is fully stocked with cooking tools and they have an excellent television (cable) and sound system. The plunge pool and the Jacuzzi (the Jacuzzi is a great place to watch a beautiful Costa Rican Sunset) are great after and long day of fun. They also have an outside patio with two large hammocks and a great dinner table overlooking both the ocean and the rainforest. We would HIGHLY recommend this place for up to four people but was very cozy and comfortable for the two of us. Five stars!!!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: Thank you for your sweet comments. You are such a vibrant, wonderful couple. We loved meeting you. We'll stay in touch and hope to see you again in the future.

This house was amazing! The photos don't even do it justice. The sunrise in the mornings over the trees/mountains and the sunset in the evenings over the ocean were spectacular. The house is beautiful with everything you need to make your stay more than comfortable. The absolute best part of this home are the owners - Mary and Lee. They will do anything (and I mean anything within the realm of possibility!) to make your dreams come true. This was a 50th birthday trip for me, and they conspired with my husband for many unique surprises. They also arranged excursions for us, and they were so very prompt with email responses and suggestions prior to, and during, our trip. I hope we get to return one day. And, after listening to our stories and description of the house, our friends hope to go there one day, too!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: Thanks for the kind words. We enjoyed having you at our home and look forward to seeing you again for your next trip to paradise.
