This was my favorite rental in Costa Rica. The house is nearly new, with very functional AC, appliances, hot water, hot tub, and a comfortable king bed. It's in a remote jungle setting -- very quiet, with monkeys and many birds in the surrounding forest. The only downside for me is that it's a half hour from Manuel Antonio, rather than a few minutes, and a car is necessary for transportation. However, the peace and quiet was worth it. The manager, Brian, is very helpful, friendly, and respectful, and speaks English very well. Great stay.
