Cute little house close to everything!

The house was clean, the hosts were helpful and accommodating. It was a short walk into town to many restaurants and a grocery store, and a short drive to things like the national park and local beaches. Every morning between 5:30 and 6 we had monkeys in the trees that we sat and watched off the balcony. And the pool was a big plus. We all had a great time!

The house was very clean & neat. We loved our time on the deck with nature. Seen more animals from the deck than we did at Manuel Antonio National Park. Morning Coffee will never be the same. Thank You.

A Perfect Place!!!

Our stay at Milena & Alberto property was a perfect escape from the busy area. The hosts had excellent communication and took pride in their beautiful property. The location was near everything but a peaceful retreat. We had a car but walked to all restaurants and stores. The house was CLEAN, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The highlight was sitting on the back deck and watching the monkeys along with a toucan, parakeets, and iguanas. The pool was a refreshing treat after a long day of touring the area. We can't wait to come back!

The property is close to everything and super clean. The hosts are amazing so helpful. They arranged for our travel back to the airport. The balcony offered views of wildlife and the white faced monkeys were a treat and very entertaining. A great spot for a quiet getaway.

Great Place

The property was perfect. 2 bedrooms with a kitchen was just what we were looking for. The deck was great for watching the monkeys and parrots. The pool was perfect after a hot day of tours.The hosts were very helpful and also booked our excursions and transfers. Their van was clean, had WiFi and seat belts. It was walkable to a grocery store, restaurants and shops. I would stay here again!

Casa Tabacon

The guest house was clean, comfortable, had a well equipped kitchen, and was stylishly decorated for Christmas. We enjoyed the pool and lounge area. The guest house was closer to the host family's main home than I had assumed, but our host family was very respectful. Alberto was very responsive and helpful when the air conditioner stopped working in one of the bedrooms. We were woke daily by monkeys and we enjoyed watching them from our porch. We appreciated being within walking distance of the supermarket, and a short drive to the beach, restaurants, and provincial park. We enjoyed chatting with our host Alberto, and being greeted by his dogs. Leaving for excursions was a bot tricky as we didn't want to let the dogs out when we left. The property is gated, without a sign, or call button but the neighbour kids helped us call for the hosts to let us in upon arrival. Overall, we had a great stay at Casa Tabacon.

Outstanding property and location

I'm way overdue in posting this. But I stayed here with my family in July 2024. Hosts are very easy to work with and were very helpful with our arrangement. Locations i excellent - mid-way between Manuel Antonio and Quepos - after a few minutes walk to the bus stop, you can be at either location in less than 10 minutes. Within a few minutes walk there is a small supermarket and a few small cafe's. And within 15-20 minutes walk there are many other larger restaurants. House was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. We LOVED the big window in the master looking out into the jungle. We saw monkeys and other animals up close there at the house. And the pool right there on the property was a HUGE plus. We spent time relaxing in the pool almost every afternoon after our morning activities. I can't wait to return. And I'd highly recommend this property if you're looking to do things around Manuel Antonio.

Absolutely incredible!

Truly made our trip that much better! The place was spotless and clean. We loved having the balcony that literally put you in the trees. Every morning we would hear monkeys and it was a delight! We went during the raining season and when it rained it was magical to sit on the balcony. There was a plunge pool and one day while sitting in the pool a monkey joined me on the other end! Incredible experience you won’t get elsewhere. We saw parrots and toucans we didn’t see at the national park! Walkable to shopping and restaurants. Would recommend driving to the beach. The check in process was a bit confusing so I wish we would have just worked it out prior to us leaving the US. The other thing is that it is a guesthouse with pets. We love pets, but just was a shock to us. Would book again!!!

Clean, modern, and lots of wildlife onsite.

I wish VRBO allowed for longer reviews, because there is so much good stuff about this place! Hosts: Alberto and Milena are there if you need them, but everything we needed was in the house. They have a separate house on the same grounds and in the morning or evening we would run into each other and chat. They have the friendliest and most well-trained dogs we have ever met. They were always so happy to see us when we returned after being out for the day. The interior space: Beds are comfortable and clean. I always check rooms for bedbugs, hair etc., not a single issue at this place. Each room has a fan and AC. It was amazing to be able to cool off on hot days, and sleep in a cool room. The house is very modern. The kitchen has an eating area, stove top to cook if you prefer to not always eat out at restaurants. Clean water. Fridge/freezer worked very well. There is a sofa to lounge on as well, which is quite comfy and brand new. Bathroom was clean and modern. All the tour operators know this place and will pick you up outside the gate for day trips. Alberto even arranged the whole Manuel Antonio Park experience for us. This space is also within 10min walking distance of all the best restaurants and grocery/convenience store. Lots of wildlife at the back deck: Macaws, Monkeys, Agouti, Parakeets, geckos. Pool was great in the evening to cool off. Outdoor shower/hose was great to clean off sand. Big gate for security with room to park inside. Awesome spot!

Trip of a lifetime!!!

We had the most wonderful time during our stay with Alberto and Milena! The house is surrounded by beautiful trees, so there is much wildlife to observe from the balcony. We could hardly pry ourselves away from the house because we were seeing so many animals close-up. We had monkeys come and visit our balcony and peek in our windows daily, a sloth that perched itself 15 feet away from us in a palm tree, and we also saw many birds including a toucan during our stay. The location is perfect, you can walk to many shops, restaurants and markets. Alberto and Milena were so easy to communicate with! They arranged our airport transfer, brought us to the beach, ordered our pizza for us (as our spanish is NOT good), and even drove us to La Fortuna themselves! Don't hesitate to book this property, you will not be disappointed. They made our trip unforgettable, and we would love to stay with them again someday.

Great place!

We really enjoyed our stay. Very nice, clean, and helpful host. The pool was a great place to chill at the end of the day. We arranged a tour of Manuel Antonio Park. Pick up at the house. Others picked up at other locations. We were dropped right at the park with our guide. Our group was about eight people. The guide was great! Highly recommended. The is a grocery store and restaurants a short walk from the house. Great stay!

Excellent Stay

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Tabacon. The place was very clean, super comfortable and was well equipped with everything we needed. The location is great, just off the main road but within walking distance of a supermarket and several restaurants. There is secure off street parking. The hosts are very friendly and helpful and live in a separate house on the property in case there are any issues.

Great local spot

Albertos place is in a cozy interior neighborhood that's close to a market and Manuel Antonio. Great alternate to staying in a gated resort. The guest house is facing a ravine on the back side of the property, with a very nice and clean plunge pool, which we made good use of, and secure parking. We did see a bunch of monkeys on a rainy afternoon, and usually heard them on the roof in the morning. The guest house is clean and new and well equipped, with these minor caveats: bathrooom/shower could use a storage shelf. the lighting is a bit harsh with blue-ishg lightbulbs. Also, the key to the gate wasn't working so we needed to coordinate coming and going on a few occassions. Other than that this is a great spot for a unique and local experience. Its a very relaxing yet authentic Tico place and we felt lucky to have stayed here instead of a generic resort. Thanks Alberto!

It is conveniently located near Manuel Antonio national park and walking distance to a nice grocery store and several good restaurants. The owner is nice, helpful and easy to work with.

Couples retreat

Check in was easy, the host was quick on the emails. There was only 2 of us, so there was a lot of extra space. Washer onsite was handy as we had already been traveling from La Fortuna. We sat on the balcony ever morning with our coffees and watched the monkeys in the trees. We walked to El Avion restaurant for dinner and sunset drinks with a view. Taxis were easy to come by on the main road to get to the National Park and beaches. The host recommended other restaurants that we tried and were so glad we did. There is air conditioning in both bedrooms that we used. But you will be on the balcony enjoying the jungle view more than anything. We would definitely recommend this apartment is lucky enough to visit Manuel Antonio.

Perfect Spot To See Manuel Antonio Area

Absolutely loved Casa Tabacon. It was very clean, secure and perfectly located. We stayed 4 nights and were able to visit Manuel Antonio Nationale Park, Uvita Waterfall, Nauyaca Waterfall and the surrounding beaches. Our host Alberto welcomed us and made us feel at home. Also, like others that have stayed here, we were able to see tons of wildlife each day from the balcony. Please check this place out if you are traveling to Costa Rica!
