Oceanfront House 'Villa Noor' - 5 Acres of Wildlife & Unspoiled Private Beach

Fabulous location, spacious attractive building surrounded by tropical wildlife. The basic amenities are all most folks would want. Personally, I was in heaven.

Great property, if you want to have a real Costa Rican experience this is the home. Loved the walk to the beach and enjoyed our time here.

It's my wifes 50th birthday & she wanted beach time & this property delivered!!! It's a really short walk from the house to the beach & what an amazing beach with the boat right infront as you walk out on the beach!!! We had our adult kids & their spouses & the house worked perfect fir all 7 if us. Things to note: there's no AC in the house but with the fans in the rooms it cooled it down enough that we slept fine. During the day we were out on the beach or doing excursions. I asked the clan if they'd stay there again & all 6 said YES!!! The property manger was great! Answered all our questions, got us extra towels, & was super friendly. Note that plumbing is not the same as in the U.S. so the drinkable wster was only in the kitchen. Not a big deal. The cost of the house was worth every penny & again that beach access from the house was AMAZING!!

The property is Gorgeous! Surrounded with native plants, flowers and GREAT people. The owner was always prompt on communicating and managers were friendly and humble. Definitely going back! It felt like HOME!

My family and I had a wonderful 2 week stay at Villa Noor. We chose to stay here based off of location which did not disappoint! Some of the highlights of our stay was watching the wildlife from the house (monkeys, sloths, blue morpho butterflies, birds, etc.) and then of course the beach. The house had plenty of space for my husband, myself, our 4 young kids and my mom. The house could use a little maintenance (window screens and screen doors were broken) and a good deep clean. However, I would definitely stay here again! Few things to note: the caretaker, Cindy who lives on the property, was great! She always responded promptly to my messages (she does not speak any English). There is another (small) rental property onsite so there are other people using the path to and from the beach. The path to the beach was frequently underwater so we would have to wade through it. The beach in front of the property has a strong rip tide. My kids enjoyed buggy boarding in that area but if they wanted to swim we would head down the beach towards town. There is a small grocery store within walking distance to Villa Noor which was convenient. Overall, we had an amazing stay and would go back!

Our second stay at Villa Noor was even better than the first if you can imagine! Wonderful friends, amazing wildlife, perfect ocean breezes and waves, fun exploration everywhere we turned! Thank you for inviting us into your Pura Vida lifestyle! We can't wait to come back again! *See my original review from 2019 for specific details*

Large house. Beautiful balcony. Beautiful jungle garden. Short walk to nearly private beach. Loved exploring the area. Check out the sloth rescue nearby. Would recommend.

This is our second time staying at Villa Noor and it lived up to everything I remembered. Excellent accommodations; comfortable, clean with all the amenities. Awesome, attentive caretaker. Excellent location in secluded Manzanillo with excellent access to the beach. Surrounded by a beautiful vibrant jungle with all the expected flora and fauna within view of the porch. From the porch we saw the resident sloth, numerous toucans, parrots, both howler and spider monkeys, as well as agouti and numerous other birds and mammals. The property even has suitable connectivity to work and Zoom remotely. 5 star rental good for a weekend or a month!

We really loved Manzanillo and our stay at Villa Noor. The house is huge, and the location is awesome. You feel absolutely alone in the jungle yet are only 100 m or less to the beach and a short 3-minute hike from town. We definitely recommend.

This place is huge, and very nice, it is in the jungle, lots of wildlife. We loved this place from the start. Cindy speaks no english, we speak no spanish, this was never a problem. The house is well kept, and the terrace is outstanding. There's a pathway to the beach that is speckled with crabs. My wife and I stayed here, and by gosh we had enough room.
