Fantastisch! Prachtig huis, schitterende omgeving, Luiaard in de boom te zien vanaf balkon, dat is toch super!
Erg vriendelijk en fijn contact met beheerder.
Het pad naar accommodatie is inderdaad erg stijl. Maar dat went.
Hartelijk dank voor uw geweldige review, Marina.
We zijn erg blij dat u zo genoten heeft van het huis, de prachtige omgeving en natuurlijk van het zien van de luiaard vanuit het balkon — dat maakt een verblijf hier echt bijzonder!
Ook fijn om te horen dat u prettig contact had met ons team. En ja, het pad omhoog is inderdaad wat steil, maar gelukkig went het snel ????
Het was een plezier om u te mogen ontvangen en we hopen u in de toekomst opnieuw te mogen verwelkomen.
Pura Vida ????
Such an amazing stay! The location is great, we saw so many animals right at the pool
Thank you! So happy you got to enjoy the wildlife ????
Loved Casa Heron!
First- the driveway: it is a pain so make sure you have a 4x4 as listed in the description or make sure your trunk isn’t weighed down too much
Julio was amazing and communicated very well!
Jodie was also amazing and we are very thankful for him.
The pool is smaller but perfect for relaxing! Sun hits it perfectly from 10:30-2:30. The two upstairs bedrooms have private bathrooms and there is a bathroom right outside of the downstairs bedroom. Lots of privacy
The kitchen is equipped with lots of utensils and we highly recommend chef Vicki to come cook for you!
Pura Vida!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Emily! ???? We're so happy you loved Casa Heron and that Julio and Jodie took such good care of you. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to them and to Chef Vicki! ????️ Hope to see you back soon — Pura Vida! ????????
We hebben genoten van ons verblijf. Mooie grote ruimte en een zwembad om af te koelen. Dicht bij Manuel Antonio (wel met de auto).
Thank you very much for your review, Lorraine.
We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay, the spacious home, and the pool to cool off and relax. Manuel Antonio is indeed just a short drive away, making it easy to explore the park, beaches, and local restaurants.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back to Manuel Antonio Estates in the future. Pura Vida ????
We loved the close proximity to downtown Quepos & Marina Pez Vela. Great place to stay for exploring Manuel Antonio, Quepos, Domincal, etc. Howler & Capuchin monkeys along with Scarlett McCaws were regular visitors in the area and the lush green surroundings were just what we needed for a winter vacation from the cold. The home was very well stocked with appliances, towels, toiletries & the pool was perfect for the warm afternoons. The steep driveway was fine as long as you have a 4x4 or for local taxi drivers.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Shannon.
We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed the location and were able to explore Quepos, Marina Pez Vela, Manuel Antonio, and the surrounding areas so easily. It’s always special when guests get to experience the wildlife as well, and seeing howler monkeys, capuchins, and scarlet macaws nearby truly makes the stay unforgettable.
We’re also glad the home had everything you needed and that you were able to enjoy the pool during the warm afternoons. Thank you as well for mentioning the driveway — the jungle views at the top definitely make the climb worthwhile.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back again for another Costa Rica escape in the future.
Pura Vida ????
Awesome lovely stay, super clean, well equipped and the staff was super polite and customer centric.

Had a great time. Def recommend a 4X4 for driveway if you are renting a car.Perfect location to beach and Quepos and surrounding areas. Beautiful home.
Amazing Stay
¡Muchísimas gracias, Ivan!! Los esperamos de vuelta pronto ????????
House was in a great location. Easily walkable to Quepos if you don't mind a steep hill on the way home and a quick drive into Manuel Antonio. The staff was extremely responsive and the house was impeccably cleaned. I hope I can come back and enjoy it again soon.
The house is in a beautiful location and is well equipped. We enjoyed our stay.

Great house. well equipped. it was raining so the van did not make it all the up in front of the house. if you have a big car just be aware that it's a very steep hill. otherwise they've been very accommodating and lovely stay.

Wow, this is an incredible house and my family absolutely loved our stay. From the moment we entered it felt like home. It is beautifully decorated, has comfortable furniture, lots of space and my two kids enjoyed their own bedrooms and bathrooms. We loved the AC (in the living room and all bedrooms, huge kitchen, pool deck and loungers and comfy living room with TV. The hosts were friendly and left us a fruit basket. Thank you for the amazing stay!

Used the Casa Heron from AirBnB booking. AMAZING!! Stay here!! The house is beautiful. The pool is perfect. The management and staff are great. It's very local to Quepos or Manuel Antonio. Getting here, keep an eye out for the entrance sign. It's kind of hidden. However there is a large fountain out front and several "Spa" signs, if that helps! We also were greeted by Capuchin Monkeys one early evening and one early morning!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had such an amazing stay at Casa Heron and that you loved the home, the pool, and the convenient location. How exciting to have been greeted by the local Capuchin monkeys — what a memorable experience!
It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we would be delighted to welcome you back again anytime.

We stayed for a week at beautiful Casa Heron March 17 - 22. It is exactly as described. As I'm in a wheelchair, it is so very nice to find a home that has a bedroom and bathroom with shower on the first floor. This was our fourth or fifth time staying at MA Estates, and we are always so pleased with our stays. The front desk has always helped us immediately (and graciously!), the grounds are immaculately groomed for both beauty and privacy. The house is in a good location, and we were lucky to see many monkeys, especially at dusk. Capuchins! We also saw 2 agoutis, a coatimundi, and many macaws, plus a huge variety of butterflies including the blue morhpho. It was delightful seeing all this wildlife while watching from the house itself! We also were provided upon request with a driver both ways, which made transportation a breeze for us. Our drivers were helpful and informative. No worries here! Whatever you need with amenities, custom care, good recommendations and an excellent location, Manuel Antonio Estates is our favorite place to stay in this area - see ya next year and thank you!
For the unsure or unwary, there are many very small ants that bite, and the mosquitoes were a tough opponent - insect repellent definitely worth it...especially for long periods of monkey-watching! It is only to be expected in this beautiful jungle jewel...
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and kind review! We are absolutely delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Casa Heron and that it met your accessibility needs. It’s always a pleasure to welcome you back to Manuel Antonio Estates, and we truly appreciate your continued trust in us.
We’re so glad you got to experience the incredible wildlife right from the house—what a treat to see capuchins, macaws, and even a coatimundi! Your kind words about our team and services mean the world to us, and we’re happy to hear that transportation was seamless for you.
Thank you for the helpful note about the local critters—nature is all around us here, and repellent is definitely a good tip for fellow travelers!
We can’t wait to welcome you back next year. Until then, safe travels and pura vida!
Casa Heron was the perfect get away for my family and one year old son. The place was quietly nestled in the rainforest, lots of birds and monkies. We loved the spa, everyone was friendly and informative. The neighborhood was very nice. Close to all that Quepos and Manuel Antonio has to offer, the perfect location and very safe !
Thank you for your wonderful review, Janelle! We're so happy to hear that Casa Heron was the perfect getaway for your family and little one. It’s great to know you enjoyed the peaceful rainforest setting, the wildlife, and the spa. We’re also glad you felt safe and found the location convenient for exploring Quepos and Manuel Antonio. We’d love to welcome you back again soon! Pura vida!
Great place
Thanks so much, Bob! We're so glad you enjoyed Casa Heron, and we can’t wait to welcome you back again soon!

Un lugar hermoso y muy accesible a las playas y lugares comerciales, todo excelente..!
¡Muchas gracias por tu reseña, Rodrigo! Nos alegra mucho que hayas disfrutado de tu estancia en Casa Heron y esperamos recibirte nuevamente pronto. ¡Pura vida!
This was a last a minute booking to break up our drive to La Fortuna. It was clean and spacious and we were especially glad to have a washer and dryer. It rained the whole time we were there so we didn’t really explore the neighborhood but it was beautiful and quiet.
Thanks for sharing your experience! We're happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at Casa Heron and found it comfortable. Hopefully, next time the weather will let you explore the beautiful, quiet neighborhood!
Really nice place. Very close to Manuel Antonio and the market. Beautiful and big house.
The house was very big and had all the amenities.
Thank you for your great review! We're so glad you enjoyed the house and its convenient location near Manuel Antonio and the market. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back again soon!
Perfect place to stay, comfy, just as described, very good amenities
Muchas gracias, Erick!!
Julio’s place was wonderful! The hill to the house is very steep and has a sharp turn but we were able to navigate it fine in a car WITHOUT 4 x4. Julio was very quick to go respond to any issues we had and with any recommendations. We would for sure recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a location close to everything!
Thank you for your great review, Ashlyn! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed Casa Heron and found it convenient to everything. We appreciate your feedback about the hill, and are happy to know you navigated it without any issues. It’s also great to hear that Julio was able to assist promptly and provide helpful recommendations. Thank you for your recommendation – we’d love to welcome you back in the future!
Pura Vida :D
El barrio es privado y seguro. Julio y sus grupo de trabajo son muy amables y te explican todo. En cuando al pueblo no me pareció lindo. El malecón está muy dejado y salimos con mi familia a caminar en una pequeña plaza que tienen y a las 5;30 pm nos tuvimos que ir porque los locales nos dijieron que era peligroso.
Gracias por sus comentarios y por destacar la amabilidad de Julio y su equipo. Lamentamos que la experiencia en el pueblo no haya sido tan positiva como esperaban. Apreciamos sus observaciones; sin embargo, el pueblo de Quepos en general es muy seguro, incluido el malecón, que es visitado por locales y viajeros todos los días. Sin duda, es importante tener precaución y aplicar sentido común, como no dejar objetos de valor sin supervisión, algo que se recomienda en todos los destinos turísticos del mundo.
Nos alegra que se hayan sentido seguros en nuestra comunidad, Manuel Antonio Estates, y esperamos que su estancia en el alojamiento haya sido en general agradable. ¡Gracias por compartir su experiencia con nosotros!
Alojaron nuestra reunión familiar aquí con 16 personas en 3 generaciones. La villa era lo suficientemente espaciosa para todos y las múltiples piscinas mantenían felices a los niños. La cocina estaba bien equipada para nuestras comidas familiares. Sólo se trataba de una unidad de AC que necesitaba atención, pero el mantenimiento lo arregló rápidamente. ¡Grandes recuerdos hechos!
Family reunions are so special! We're thrilled we could accommodate three generations and that everyone enjoyed the space. Thank you for bringing your family together here.
As always, a wonderful stay at Manuel Antonio Estates!! Beautiful homes, location and wildlife. The staff is amazing!!!! We will be back next year!

We can't wait to welcome you back next year for another memorable visit. Until then!
Myself and both my young adult sons stayed in this three on-suit bed Vila for a week.
Beautifully done, this Vila is finished to a high standard with an excellent top quality equipped kitchen. Air condition in bedrooms was essential.
The outside patio and garden with an outdoor kitchen surrounded by nature and complete privacy was a great addition for eating outside and enjoying nature. This was all topped up by a good size, clean swimming pool.
Great communication with Andrés and Julio the hosts who were very helpful and easy to reach on WhatsApp.
We had a great time - Highly recommend this Vila !

Como médicos, rara vez logramos desconectar verdaderamente, pero esta villa proporcionó el santuario perfecto. La piscina infinita con vistas a la selva tropical era magia pura. Apreciamos el Internet de alta velocidad para las pocas llamadas urgentes que teníamos que tomar. El conserje organizó increíbles experiencias incluyendo un tour nocturno donde vimos perezosos!
It's so important for healthcare professionals to have restorative escapes. We're pleased you found the perfect balance of connectivity and relaxation. The sloth sightings are always special!
This home is very spacious. They provide everything you need to enjoy your stay there. Thru the years we have Rented various vacation homes and this one was by far the cleanest! Everything in the home worked as it should. The area is very quiet and peaceful. The location itself is exactly as described inside and out. The yard/pool were very well maintained. The staff checked in with us periodically during our stay. Staff answered our questions in a timely/reasonable manner as well. The home is literally a 5-6 minute drive to Quepos/Manuel Antonio (very convenient). Highly recommended!
Mi opinión sobre este lugar lo resumo en que es todo lo que necesitaba y buscaba, me urgía salir de mi casa y despejarme unos días disfrutar en una casa con piscina privada en medio de la montaña con esos bellísimos sonidos de la naturaleza; dejar de lado el trabajo y disfrutar de las personas que más amo, la disponibilidad y atención de Dorit increíble, volveré xq nunca es suficiente de disfrutar de Manuel Antonio Estates
