Rainforest Gem Aracari Villa with Private Pool

The property was just as described. The drive is steep so get ready for that. Had monkeys stop by 3 out of the 6 days. If you want to see them, get up at sunrise and sit out by the pool and wait. The communication with the property managers was outstanding. They arranged transportation and excursions for various activities, and all went flawless. Everything you need is within walking distance but the hike up the drive is tough after a long day, but the pool and patio after you arrive is well worth it.

House is clean, modern and well stocked. The beds are super comfortable and the bathrooms look brand new. It was nice to get a visit from a pack of Capuchin monkeys one night too!! Only disappointing things was the pool is a little cold in the rainy season so we couldn’t use it as as much as we expected.

We got there a day after we had scheduled due to a late flight in San Jose. Property owners were welcoming and answered many questions. It was our first trip to Costa Rica. Our villa was a picture post card with a visit from wildlife like white faced monkeys. It was quiet and near everything we needed. A steep drive up the hill to our unit. If are diving from San Jose as we did and you use google maps make sure it directs you west to Highway 34/27. Ours took us directly south out of the city resulting in unnecessary primitive roadways and left and right curves with speedbumps all the way down. Coming back with the correct directions cut 2 hours off our driving time

My husband and I, both in our 70's, really enjoyed this Villa. It had a great view of the jungle, was quiet and comfortable, and the pool was perfect. We saw wildlife every day. The driveway to the place is steep, but we used taxis the whole time, and they all made it up. We also loved being so close to town. We walked there a couple times, but took a taxi back. Quepos has lots of little shops with gifts, and is less expensive than Manuel Antonio. They also have great food, especially at the marina. We love the wow-wow shrimp and the fresh scallops at Gabriellas.

House is perfect for (2) adult couples or a small family. Property was as advertised. Staff is super responsive, friendly and really strive to go above and beyond. Location was also good. Be sure to do yourself a favor and hire the chef at some point, you won't be disappointed.

This property has it all: seclusion but walking distance to downtown Quepos, a modern kitchen adjoining a comfortable family room, 3 double sliding doors that opens up the kitchen and 2 bedrooms to the private pool, and monkeys in the nearby trees! The best Vrbo we have stayed at by far.

Property was great and in a good location

Gorgeous property in a gated community within walking distance to Quepos and short drive to Manuel Antonio. Dorit and Andres are over the top helpful hosts and were always available even during a late night mishap. Cool waterfall within a short but steep hike. Monkeys and birds including macaws were onsite. Recommended! Thanks again ?

Loved this property. Even nicer that the pictures show. We saw monkeys in the mornings and evening in the trees every day. Enjoyed the peacefulness of this place. Location was great and close proximity to Manuel Antonio National Park and many other great places. The only thing that was a bit hard was the steep driveway. Otherwise, the place was perfect for us.

As soon as I saw the property on vrbo I fell in love with it. Me and my sweet little family enjoyed the villa so much, especially the pool and the wildlife. The first morning there an iguana joined us for breakfast at pool side ❤️. Everything was super clean and registration was a breeze. Employees were helpful kind and curtious. On the last morning we were visited by white faced monkeys and a howler monkey. The kitchen had all utensils for cooking.
