AMAZING Hillside Home, Private Infinity Pool, Covered Veranda, Spacious Rooms
This exclusive holiday home is perfect for you and your friends or family. You'll be in love from the moment you enter Casa Lucero, a private luxurious hillside villa just minutes from the famous white sand beaches of Manuel Antonio and the town and marina of Quepos; a lofty retreat with amazing views. Everything you need to create an unforgettable holiday experience is offered in this magnificent private home!
Unwind in your personal infinity pool, with its own waterfall and covered swim up bar, and gaze at the Cordillera de Talamanca, the beautiful mountains surrounding Manuel Antonio. A two-piece bathroom is conveniently located next to the bar. The spectacular wrap-around veranda, surrounded by lush gardens, offers comfortable seating for relaxation, a daybed for book reading or an afternoon nap, and a table and comfortable chairs with plenty of space for outdoor dining. Each of these areas offer limitless views of the shimmering blue waters of the Pacific Ocean and Quepos' Marina Pez Vela.
The inside of the newly decorated home offers spacious rooms. In each of the two large bedrooms you will be treated to ultra-luxurious comfort on your orthopedic king-size bed fitted with deluxe linens. Each air-conditioned bedroom has a closet with a safe, a dresser, and its own ensuite bathroom with a shower and double sinks. The kitchen has a dining area and is fully-equipped with all the conveniences of home. Opposite the kitchen is a cozy living room with plush seating where you relax indoors. Every room has a fabulous view of the ocean or mountains. Ocean breezes, soothing ceiling fans, and air-conditioned bedrooms create a cool, comfortable environment - it's your choice. This home has it all.
During your stay, you will have access to the warm and knowledgeable hosting services of the Villa House Manager. The Manager will meet you at a prearranged location and take you personally to your villa, where all the features of the property will be explained. The Manager is fluent in both English and Spanish and will be pleased to answer your questions, arrange tours and activities, and make reservations on your behalf. We will put you in touch with the Manager as soon as you book so you can get started with planning your most memorable holiday ever! Other amenities include: - a complimentary bag of locally roasted coffee to welcome you - indoor living / dining area - internet - air-conditioned bedrooms - ceiling fans in all rooms, on the veranda, & in the bar - outdoor grill - books - hair dryer, iron & ironing board, closets - bi-weekly maid service (one service during a 5 - 7 day stay and always on check-out) - private parking - complete House Manual with everything you need to know about the home, instructions, local activities and restaurants, emergency contacts & safety card etc. - personal safe - at home massage and chef services are available on request for an additional charge.
The Casa is located between Manuel Antonio and Quepos, Costa Rica. Both towns are located on the Central Pacific Coast, less than 100 miles from the capital of San José. Enjoy balmy year-round temperatures that average from 81⁰ to 90⁰F (27 to 32⁰C) and year-round 85⁰F (29.5⁰C) ocean waters. Manuel Antonio is Costa Rica’s honeymoon capital and most exotic tropical destination. The Manuel Antonio area combines timeless tropical scenery and one of the most beautiful white sand beaches in Costa Rica which has, as backdrop, emerald-green forests and lush hillsides. The public beach of Playa Espadilla offers excellent swimming, rental of beach chairs, sun umbrellas, kayaks, snorkeling equipment, boogie boards and surfing lessons. You will also have access to international restaurants, spas, galleries and up-to-date services. There are plenty of places to eat in or near Manuel Antonio, ranging from small “sodas” offering Costa Rican local dishes, to five-star dining restaurants.
At the villa, you are just minutes away from Manuel Antonio National Park, one of the world’s most spectacular rain forest nature reserves. With its tropical trails, stunning white-sand beaches, coral reefs and tidal pools, this land-and-maritime Park is a stand out jewel in a country famous for its natural beauty. The Park includes four picture-perfect beaches, each with its own personality. Anyone with a snorkel and mask will be mesmerized by the aquatic life around the coral reefs and submerged volcanic rocks that line the coast between the Park and Quepos. Manuel Antonio National Park is home to an astonishing variety of tropical wildlife. Explore the Park on a well-established network of trails. The most interesting trail is the small loop that takes you around Punta Cathedral, with its breathtaking view of the Pacific. Be on the lookout for hundreds of species of animals and birds, including White-faced (caphuchin) monkeys, squirrel monkeys, howler monkeys, coatimundis, agoutis, two and three-toed sloths, toed anteaters, iguanas, marmomsets, ocelots, river otters, pacas and spectacled caimans, land crabs, parrots, brown pelicans, brown boobies, tyrant hawl-eagles, gray-headed chachalacas, soalter’s ant birds, toucans, and scarlet macaws. (Guest recommendation - For any excursion to Manuel Antonio Park and the Rainmaker Tour, make sure you book Josue. Our Villa House Manager will take care of this for you.)
Located on a tropical inlet just minutes from the Villa, Quepos is a small booming harbor town famous for being one of the best places in the world for big-game sport fishing. The newly developed Marina Pez Vela has amazing restaurants and specialty stores. Shop at the Farmer's Market every Friday evening or Saturday morning. With a variety of outdoor adventure and nightlife, the bustling village center composes six blocks of restaurants, bars, hotels, art galleries and gift shops, all resting beside the main beach and sport fishing fleet.
Less than two hours away, you will find Carara National park where you will experience biodiversity at its best! This 4700-hectare park is the northern-most tropical wet forest on the Pacific Coast. Hike with your naturalist guide through the reserve, and admire views of surrounding rice fields, palm plantations and cattle ranches. Crocodiles can often be spotted in the nearby Rio Tarcoles! In addition to all of this, our Villa House Manager can assist you with booking a multitude of nearby activities including … Snorkeling, Scuba Diving, Surfing, Sunset Sails, Sport Fishing, Ocean Kayaking, Dolphin and Whale Watching Tours, River Rafting, Canopy/Zip-Line Tours, Suspension Bridge Tours, Horseback Riding, Waterfall Tours, ATV Tours, Bird Watching and many more. (Consult your on-site Villa Handbook for further information.) The best of ALL worlds!
***It is advised to rent a small or regular size 4x4 to navigate the driveway up to the villa and to make your trips to the local beaches, restaurants and grocery stores. We are located on a steep hill with a switch back driveway and walking to these amenities is not recommended.***

About the host
Hosted by Sheri Wildeboer
As a typical Canadian family with 4 amazing children, our love of Costa Rica began with our first zip-lining tour hundreds of feet above the forest floor. Monkeys and parrots, iguanas and amazing views of the Pacific Ocean are now what make it feel like home. We can't wait to return every time again, at any time of year for more adventure, fabulous food or complete relaxation. We welcome you to experience nature and adventure at its very best from the comfort of this spacious, two-bedroom villa. Pura Vida!
Why they chose this property
This is our second property in Costa Rica. Our first home is a romantic one bedroom quiet retreat. This home offers space for friends or family. It is located in an area that is central to Quepos, with its bustling streets and local flavor, and also to Manuel Antonio with its unlimited choice of restaurants and activities. The best of everything the area has to offer!
What makes this property unique
The views of the ocean and mountains are second to none. Few homes in the area are perched in a location that offers the views that are visible from our home! A newly renovated home that is airy and spacious... Costa Rican architecture with mid-century modern decor!
