About this property
Enjoy serenity or choose adventure at Casa Gina, your private jungle oasis
Paradise found: Stay at Casa Gina
Nestled on a lush 1.5-acre jungle lot within the gated community of Rancho Manuel Antonio, Casa Gina is a private, romantic, and secure retreat designed for those seeking both peace and adventure. Just minutes from Quepos and Manuel Antonio National Park, this fully air-conditioned two-bedroom, two-bath home was crafted from the ground up to offer a truly rejuvenating escape.
Spend your days lounging by the stunning private pool, surrounded by a sandstone deck and shaded by a private palapa with a wet bar — your own personal paradise. From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by grand double teak doors that set the tone for the home's rich, custom craftsmanship. Throughout the house, you'll find exquisite furniture handcrafted from Guanacaste wood — a dark, lustrous timber and the national tree of Costa Rica.
The main living area blurs the line between indoors and out, with soaring twelve-foot ceilings adorned with teak, comfortable seating for eight, and six sliding doors that open wide to the pool deck and surrounding rainforest. Whole-house A/C keeps the space cool and dry, while abundant dimmer-controlled recessed lighting sets the perfect mood for entertaining or unwinding.
Step outside onto any of Casa Gina's four decks and immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of the jungle. Toucans, three species of monkeys, sloths, iguanas, and the breathtaking Blue Morpho butterfly are frequent visitors. Fire up the gas grill and make the most of the fresh fish, chicken, and produce available at the local farmers' market.
The thoughtfully designed kitchen features teak cabinetry, granite countertops, and quality stainless steel appliances — including an ice maker. A full set of cookware and utensils makes preparing meals a pleasure, while the breakfast island and wet bar seating for four invite relaxed mornings and easy conversation. The Guanacaste wood dining table comfortably seats four for more formal meals.
Both bedrooms offer king-sized beds dressed in quality linens, complemented by beautifully matched armoires and nightstands. Individual remote-controlled A/C units and ceiling fans ensure a restful night's sleep. Each bedroom opens onto its own private covered deck through large sliders — a serene spot to read, reflect, or simply soak in the rainforest atmosphere. The two full bathrooms are finished with sandstone floors and shower enclosures, and feature teak counters, vessel sinks, rainfall showerheads, and soft mood lighting for a spa-like feel.
Whether you're seeking quiet seclusion or eager to explore, Casa Gina puts it all within reach. The vibrant town of Quepos is just five minutes away, and the pristine white-sand beaches of Manuel Antonio National Park are only seven minutes from your door. From casual local "sodas" to upscale gourmet dining, dozens of restaurants are just a short drive away.
All pricing is transparent and all-inclusive — no hidden fees, ever.

Excellent location, near beach, national park yet private and quiet. The home was clean, fully equipped and very comfortable with everything we needed. Pool and outdoor space was fantastic.
Casa Gina is a beautiful house that has a great layout, is very spacious, is well equipped and was very clean. The location is convenient to all area activities and restaurants. Best to arrive during daylight since getting there in the dark requires very good GPS. A four-wheel drive car isn't needed but might be useful for exploring the area.
The house was perfect, just the jungle retreat that we were looking for. We loved waking up to the howlers and all of the sounds. Very peaceful setting. Communication with Carlos was great
Everything about the house was great and our host, Carlos, was outstanding! We got lost coming in and he was able to guide us from What's App. The power went out one day but Carlos and the owners were very responsive in updating us and pointing us to the flashlights.
Very comfortable, lovely and well-appointed house. We really appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, washer and dryer, and good communication with host. The driveway is very steep and rocky. I was glad we had a 4X4, especially when it was raining. It was a great location while we were in Manuel Antonio.
Amazing stay, owners and the property manager were super helpful and the house was definitely love at first sight. We saw towns of animals and insects while enjoying the pool during the afternoon. Would stay there again with no hesitation!
Very nice property and comfortable property. Close to the parks and restaurants of Manuel Antonio. We liked the house layout and pool area. Howler monkeys welcomed the morning most days of our stay, and a family of squirrel monkeys (which we didn't see in the park) swung by a couple of days of our stay.Only downsides were that the road to the house can be tricky (don't get lost!), and the mosquitos outside were pretty brutal our first few nights.
We had an amazing stay at Casa Gina. The property is beautiful, very well equipped with everything we needed and more. It is in an amazing location to see wildlife. We were lucky enough to have daily visits from iguanas, geckos, monkeys and more. The location was peaceful but still very close to shops, restaurants and other amenities. The property manager, Carlos, was kindly there to meet us at check in and talk through some details with us about the property. He was super helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, could happily have stayed longer and would 100% recommend. Thank you Casa Gina team, we loved our stay and hope to be back one day!
As advertised, lovely house tucked into the hills, clean, good communication with the manager. It was a great home base for us to explore Quepos and Manuel Antonio and southern Costa Rica generally, and also just to relax in the evenings.
The casa and pool were amazing. We loved our stay. Loved the outdoor space and all the amenities!!We had difficulty getting up the hill the first night as it was steep and raining. The next morning we had a flat tire.
We had a wonderful time at Casa Gina. Beautiful, quiet location. Relaxing in the pool while listen to birds and howler monkeys- Wonderful!

We enjoyed our stay very much!
We had such a great time in Manuel Antonio and loved this house. It was perfect for the four of us (two couples).
It had all the amenities and was very clean. The details of the house are really nice! Thank you for letting us stay in your home!
We loved our stay at Casa Gina! It is beautiful inside and out. The outdoor setting by the pool was a nature lovers paradise and full of beautiful wildlife. The house was beautiful, comfortable and clean. The property manager and host were helpful and communicative.
We stayed with our family of four with two elementary aged kids. We loved this house! As everyone says—the house is well-stocked with everything you need. The patio and pool are wonderful and we enjoyed seeing monkeys around the property nearly everyday. The house is close to everything but feels very private and peaceful.
I had a great stay at Casa Gina this spring with 2 friends. Carlos was very helpful and gave us great tips about the area. The home is in a beautiful valley and is very private. It is close to town and we were able to visit the beach, restaurants etc, by car and taxi. We were able to cook in the well-equipped kitchen, and the pool is amazing, we would happily stay here again!

About the host
Hosted by Gina Lee
After spending the last several decades in Colorado amidst the beautiful mountains of the front range we found ourselves always longing for the ocean as well. A visit to Costa Rica in 2005 led us to experience the wonderful abundance of wildlife and warm people that so many have written about. Now that we are getting around to thinking about the perfect place for us to retire to the combination of Summer in the Rockies and Winter on a Costa Rican beach seems like a dream come true.
Why they chose this property
Although each new visit brought us to a different area of the country we found ourselves always returning to Manuel Antonio for the beautiful beaches and great selection of food. We selected our lot based on how private it was, yet so close to all of the special things to do in Manuel Antonio. Our builder designed and constructed the house to take advantage of our jungle view and all the wonderful nature that is visible from all of the rooms.
What makes this property unique
Our private pool in the midst of the jungle is the perfect place to spend your days relaxing with nature and observing the many visitors to the property. A small nature trail with marked fruit trees will offer a unique experience. The gourmet kitchen and two wet bars will keep you fed and watered.
