About this property

Casa Alta- Beachfront House with Incredible Ocean Views!

Take a deep breath and imagine a warm ocean breeze accompanies the tropical sun warming your skin; the waves lap the sand with a rhythmic calm; birds lazily soar overhead.  Monkeys howling in the background. This peaceful serenity can be yours at Casa Alta, a beachfront house facing the sea and backed by the lush Costa Rican jungle, all just seconds from the pristine sandy beach in Manzanillo. Casa Alta is a three bedroom, two bath private beach house situated on the Pacific Ocean, just a ten-minute drive from beautiful Playa Hermosa and fifteen minutes from Santa Teresa.  This home is close enough to enjoy all the area has to offer, yet removed enough to feel the tranquil vibe of the lesser known and populated Manzanillo.  
Drinking your morning coffee from the patio while watching the waves creates the perfect atmosphere for planning your day.  Surfing (you can check the waves right from the patio), boogie boarding, kayaking, yoga, fishing, horseback riding, zip-lining or just soaking up the rays are just a few of the many activities our area offers. Whales frequent these warm oceans, so keep your eyes peeled for them!
Imagine watching the howler monkeys in the tree tops overhead, listening to the amazing variety of tropical birds nesting in the forest nearby, or toasting the spectacular sunsets at the end of each day as the sun settles into the ocean before you.  This house, at the end of the road, provides a relaxing yet incredible energy.  This balance is achieved by combining the natural beauty of its unique location with the advantages of a modern home complete with internet, comfortable beds and a well-equipped kitchen.
Perfect vacation for families, friends, and/or couples.

About the host

Hosted by Kristi MacKenzie

Host profile image
I grew up in Alaska, went to university in South Dakota and then married a surfer, which landed me in Santa Teresa. We have lived here for over 15 years and are still enjoying this lifestyle and pace of living. I have two boys who keep me plenty busy :) I have never lived in an area with so many different cultures who blend so well together and benefits everyone. Great friends, food, music, languages and people.

Why they chose this property

I am good friends with the owners and I love this house. As our area grows and becomes more developed, it is nice to be able to have all the amenities close by yet have some peacefulness. Manzanillo is still a sleepy beach town. This is a truly beautiful, simple beach house with an incredible energy.

What makes this property unique

The sunsets year round which you can watch from the patio. The house opens to the beach on one side and jungle on the other. A nice breeze makes the house comfortable in all weather conditions, from the hot sunshine or green season rains. The 360 degree view is unbeatable. Lush green jungle behind you, a river during green season is beside you and in front is the sandy beach into the tropical blue ocean. The house itself was designed with all of this in mind and was built out of pure love.
