About this property
WORLD FAMOUS 727 Airplane Jungle Fuselage
As seen on HGTV, NY Times, Travel and Leisure, Conde Nast and dozens of travel media, our 727 overlooks the Pacific Ocean and Manuel Antonio National Park. Now a 2 bedroom 2 bath home, the re-purposed 727 is acclaimed as one of the most unique and fantastic experiences in the jungles of Costa Rica.
The airplane, nestled beside the rain forest, is perched on a custom-built platform 15 meters (50 feet) up from the ground. At this height our guests enjoy scenic ocean and jungle views from both the airplane windows and the outdoor soaking tub on the handcrafted decks atop the wings.
Boarding the 727, you will see the lovingly restored local teak wood using Costa Verde‘s renowned innovation. You will admire the exquisite wood paneled fuselage with three queen size beds, two bathrooms, TV, AC, kitchenette and safety deposit.
When the 727 is booked, please look at our romantic Cockpit Cottage , sleeps 2 people in a meticulously repurposed cockpit . VRBO listing 1068248. Or book both if your group requires sleeping for 8. Our newest repurposed airplane is the SKYLOFT see listing : 3138698 . Astounding ocean views with a private outdoor soaking tub.
Wake to the roar of the howler monkeys, and have coffee with the playful spider and white faced monkeys to start your day. Fully equipped kitchen, flat screen TV, a total of 3 Queen beds and 2 large outdoor over the wing deck/ balconies of polished teak and handcrafted furnishings make this flight of fancy a truly unforgettable vacation home. Monkeys , sloths, acoutis, and over 184 species of birds will become your neighbors, greeting you in your private jungle paradise.
You are a short downhill walk to the white sand beach and the shops and nightlife of Manuel Antonio.
Adjacent to our resort, you will enjoy the 3 pools, one is adult only with a pool bar, 4 restaurants, maid service and tour/ concierge services within a few minutes walk or a call to the bilingual front desk. Free Internet. The closest airport is Quepos, or San Jose International airport which is aprox 2.5 hours drive. Arrangements can be made to pick you up at either.
Pez Vela Marina in Quepos is home to some of the best sport fishing in Costa Rica, with daily charters, catamaran cruises, and private sunset sails . Several great ocean front restaurants in the marina have become the place to enjoy some world class sports fishing and be part of the international boating community that docks in Marina Pez Vela.
Waterfalls, ATV's, Hiking, Zip Lining, Manuel Antonio National Park, surfing, bird watching, jungle explorations are all part of the Manuel Antonio experience for the nature lover. Or do nothing, lay by the pool, have a massage on your private 727 and listen to sounds of the jungle with a cold drink in hand. Click on our video for a close up look at the interiors and views.
