What a beautiful home! It is an oasis in the jungle. We saw Macaws, a troop of squirrel monkeys, Toucan, iguanas, and many other beautiful birds from the patio and the pool. We had an amazing vacation.

This home is perfect for a family of 6! My husband, our four boys and I loved this cozy home nestled in the trees. We visited several homes while in costa rica and this was by far our fave. I’m very picky about cleanliness and it was spotless, it has a well stocked kitchen, enough space for the whole family to be together inside or out and so many amazing birds visited the trees around the home. 10/10.

Thank you for the 10/10 and for the honest note about the driveway — it's a fair point and part of the private rainforest setting that makes Casa Serenidad so special. So glad the view made it worthwhile! You're welcome back anytime — the macaws will be waiting. Pura vida! 🌿

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Serenidad. The house was well-equipped, the AC was excellent and we saw all sorts of wildlife including Scarlet macaws flying overhead, squirrel monkeys and iguanas. Mefi helped us secure a fabulous National Park tour and communication was always fast and friendly. Great stay!

Thank you — what a wildlife lineup! Scarlet macaws, squirrel monkeys, and iguanas in one stay is the Costa Rica experience we dream of for every guest. So glad Mefi was able to arrange the National Park tour and that communication throughout was smooth. That's exactly the experience we aim for every stay.

Serene and private location

This was a lovely property that was perfect for our family. Loved the off-the-beaten-path location, which was ideally situated between Manuel Antonio and Quepos. Loved sitting out on the balcony while listening to the exotic sounds of the jungle’s fauna. The dipping pool was great, too! We loved our stay!

Wonderful stay!

We stayed at Casa Serendad for 5 days and absolutely loved it! The pictures of the house don’t do it justice, it’s beautiful and the view is breathtaking! Jorge our concierge was so helpful and guided us to so many local great places. The back patio has the most stunning view and we saw monkeys, iguanas, and macaws while sitting having coffee every morning. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay !

"The pictures don't do it justice" — that might be our favourite compliment yet! Monkeys, iguanas, and macaws over morning coffee on the patio is exactly the Casa Serenidad experience we love to hear about. Jorge will be so pleased to hear your kind words — knowing every great local spot is his superpower. So glad five days felt like time well spent. Hope to welcome you back soon — pura vida! 🦜🌿

Thank you for the 10/10! The pool overlooking the gardens and the daily bird visits are two of our favourite things about Casa Serenidad — glad they delivered for you.

Awesome Home!

The home was perfect for our stay in Manuel Antonio. Both Hazel and Jorge were outstanding concierges. The home is very clean and comfortable with AC throughout. The pool is refreshing after long days sightseeing. Jorge recommended the Monarca cafe and we loved it. It is one of the few air conditioned cafes in MA and you are surrounded by beautiful butterflies. Highly recommend home and cafe!

Wedding Party

We had a wonderful time in the Manuel Antonio Park area. Everyone was very friendly and helpful! The house was perfect, plenty of room for privacy as well as enjoying time together as a group. It is not too far from things however, you feel like you’re in the middle of the jungle. Definitely recommend an especially to advantage of having Chef Cris come and make you meals!!

Coffee with the macaws

What a wonderful stay! Geralyn was so welcoming and full of helpful information about the area. Casa Serindad is perfectly perched on a hill, with a view of the jungle below. We were entertained by red macaws, toucan, purple hummingbirds, and numerous other birds all day. Iguanas, raccoon, and agouti also passed by. All this, and it’s just a 6 minute drive to Quepos and a quick jaunt to Manuel Antonio.The home is spotless and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, the AC was very appreciated, the pool and patio were perfection. Thank you!

"Coffee with the macaws" — what a perfect title for a Casa Serenidad stay! Scarlet macaws, toucans, purple hummingbirds, iguanas, raccoons, and agouti in one visit is an extraordinary wildlife roll call. Geralyn will be so pleased to hear your kind words — welcoming guests and sharing the best of the area is her favorite part of hosting. So glad the pool, patio, kitchen, and AC all delivered.

Pura Vida at Casa Serenidad!

We loved staying at Casa Serenidad! The location was great being between both Quepos and Manuel Antonio. We had restaurants and shops very close to our location and Jorge was quick to get us a cab to go anywhere we wanted. The house was also very nice with 4 bedrooms, a nice living area, and amazing pool with a view of the jungle canopy. We were able to see a lot of wildlife from the patio and pool such as macaws, iguanas, nighthawks, and several other unique animals. Jorge and Hazel were both very helpful in planning our stay and helping us book in house chefs, which was also a great experience. Overall, Casa Serenidad is a great place to stay and would highly recommend for other groups to stay here. Pura Vida!

Beautiful and comfortable

My family and I had a memorable stay and look forward to our next trip. We could stay at this beautiful property again and again. Honestly, I’d love to buy it! Birdwatching from the patio overlooking the pool is a lovely way to spend time drinking coffee in the mornings. The vacation rental team helped with everything from calling us cabs to booking excursions. They’re a very professional group. I will only caution you that the driveway is very steep. I highly recommend a 4-wheel drive.

Family adventure

The house was clean and as described. All the staff are very accommodating and friendly. Having Jorge as our concierge was very helpful for booking excursions and setting up taxi rides. Nauyaca waterfall excursion with Paddle 9 was our favorite. They assist you with cliff jumping which you can not do on your own. They also share the history of Costa Rica. You can see beautiful parrots fly by while sitting by the pool every morning. Magic Bus food truck was one of our favorites. Not fancy but good food.

Rainforest family adventures

Everything went very smoothly with the process. We were able to text the concierge when we were on an hour away and she met us at the house to show us around. The house was spacious, clean and had all the supplies we needed including washer/dryer and soap. Good jungle views. We saw macaws at a distance but no monkeys. Pool was perfect The driveway is so steep but my husband is an excellent driver and made it up with our 12 passenger 2nd rental van. I personally would not have had the guts to drive up it.

"Rainforest family adventures" — we love that title! So glad the concierge was able to meet you on arrival and that the house had everything your family needed. The macaws were a little shy this visit but the jungle has a way of delivering when you least expect it. Hope to welcome the whole family back soon — pura vida! 🌿

Fantastic stay at Private Villa

Wonderful stay at this house on a hilltop in Quepos. Our family loved the infinity pool and the privacy of the back patio. plenty of shade. We saw many colorful birds fly by. Clean with high end finishes and comfortable beds. We stayed 3 nights but would have been comfortable for a weeklong vacation or more. The vacation house staff and concierge Jorge and his team were very accommodating and prompt. They planned our excursions and they were perfectly executed. Tip: If you rent a car, you need 4 wheel drive. Very steep to get to the top of the hill of the home. Would recommend this home for a luxury vacation in Costa Rica.

Beautiful property and wonderful home.

This is a lovely property. Everything worked well for our family. Four nice bedrooms were perfect for us and three kids, each having their own room with comfortable beds. Enjoyed seeing the squirrel monkeys, macaws, and toucans come right up to home for close views. Amazing. Kitchen and living room are not huge but had everything we needed. Everyone has commented on the very steep drive and that is accurate. But just take it slow. Property manager also very responsive to questions and needs. Thanks for a wonderful vacation in Costa Rica.

Smooth Sailing!!

What an amazing adventure! This place was in the PERFECT location…minutes by car to the best restaurants, beaches, and shops in both Manuel Antonio and Quepos. This was my family’s first trip to Costa Rica and our host Jorge made sure the transition was absolutely seamless. He was always quick to respond to all of our questions and helped us to find and book the best tours and restaurants to suit our family. When our son got a fever for a stomach infection (from who knows what), he didn’t hesitate to rush over with a thermometer and drive with my husband and son to see a doctor (by the way the medical system here is so efficient). We always felt looked after and secure. Thanks Jorge, we look forward to seeing you next year!
