Family-friendly vacation rentals in Manuel Antonio Beach

WOW sums it up! Our family was just blown away with the villa and the beautiful view. We are a family of 17......9 grandkids, parents and Grammy/ Gramps. The place was absolutely perfect for our family vacation. Stephen was there to show us around and the ladies had cold drinks for us on arrival. I really can't say enough about the place. Yesenia and Yeneri made a beautiful tasty breakfast for us each morning. 4 of us are celiacs and they were very careful to provide us with what we could eat. Esteban was wonderful and was around to help with anything we needed. He showed us different things around the property, turned on the hot tub when needed and took us on a hike to the waterfall and river. He was great with the kids showing them butterflies and such and played toucan sounds on the stereo to attract the toucans. Sophia and Caleb did great jobs as well The rooms were perfect with amazing views and the garden house was great. Thanks from all of us......amazing memories!❤️

Alonso and his wife make us feel like home! Description of everything was right and even more! House distribution is perfect to spend vacation time with kids! I will definitely come back! Saving to my favorites spots in Bejuco. Thanks for everything !

This home is incredible. It is absolutely worth the trip. We were looking for something in mid or southern pacific coast, ultimately decided on uvita for a less touristy vibe but still close to lots of activities. It was the right choice. The home is beautiful and so inviting. Licho and his wife are incredible hosts. We had them cook almost every meal. Everything was delicious! It was very appreciated because we were so tired at the end of each day! There is a waterfall 5 minutes away with great jumping platforms. There are delicious restaurants near by, and the beach was about 7 minute drive. There was tons of wildfire in the backyard, with plenty of visits from monkeys. We hooked everything through Licho including our tours, rental car, and ride to and from SJO. You can do great excursions from town which is a 5 minute drive. If we’re ever back in Costa Rica we would absolutely stay here again!

Amazing! We’ve done this trip in various locations across costa rica and Brian’s place was by far the best, especially for larger groups. The dreamy outdoor kitchen had all the best appliances and tools you could ever need. The pool and lounge area felt like what you would experience at a high end resort. The music hookup and lighting at night was perfect for relaxing and breathtaking sunsets and nighttime conversations. Some of us could even get in a morning workout given the great gym area available and would end it with a cold plunge. I literally can’t think of anything else we could ever need! Beyond being an absolute paradise, Brian went above and beyond to welcome us and ensure we were comfortable. It’s rare these days that the host is as invested in their guests’ experience as Brian, and it’s clear that he really wants his guests to feel at home and welcome. He always promptly answered any questions and was eager to help and give recommendations. Can’t wait to come back!

I really nice well equipped jungle house with a nice working hot tub. Very interesting and unique experience I would recommend it.

Laurent’s Airbnb was in a great location and perfect for our family of 9 who was visiting Costa Rica for a family wedding! The walk-ability to nearby restaurants and shopping was a plus! We did walk to the beach but took a taxi back as it was a bit hilly to walk back! Beautiful views, lots of space for all of us and Laurent helped us with transportation to and from the airport. He was very quick to respond to any questions we had and the pool was refreshing! Thx, Laurent, for allowing us to vacation at your home!

A stunning house in the perfect location! This was a great spot from which to explore this part of the coast. As other reviewers have said, the drive to the property is steep but paved, and there is a long set of stairs from the parking spot to the house. The house is beautifully decorated and has all of the appliances you'll need. The property manager was available when we needed him and gave us great recommendations to local restaurants. We'd stay here again!

My fiancé and I absolutely LOVED our stay at the Tarzan Jungle Home! It was by far our favorite place we stayed on our trip to Costa Rica, and we even ended up extending our stay there. It is such a cool space and you can tell they have put a lot of time and effort in the property and it’s surroundings. The zipline and water slide were great additions and definitely made us feel like it was worth every penny spent. Also, the property manager Marlyn is amazing and so very helpful and responsive, as is the host Paul👍🏼 We would 10 out of 10 recommend and stay here again on our next trip!

We were greeted by David and Penelope upon arrival with a warm welcome. We stayed on the ground level in the 2 bedroom suite with our own kitchenette however we received two wonderful meals per day with request. Our hosts were wonderful, informative, and accommodating arranging for a monkey tour through the Mangroves by boat and informed us of the tortuga release just down the beach from where we were staying so we could take the easy 5 minute walk to watch the release. Oh, speaking of the beach, it was amazing to have such an amazing expanse to walk wash day. We couldn't be more happy with our decision to stay with David and Penelope. Looking forward to our next stay with them.

Mandel was a very responsive host and dealt with any issues we had, minor or not, very quickly. The area was beautiful and the view from the bedrooms was breathtaking. We enjoyed the amenities and especially the pool. For us, a group of 4 couples, the rooms being in a seperate side from the main house worked very well. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the area felt very safe, lots of things were within walking distance. Thanks again Mandel!

We had an awesome stay here. Kimberly was the best host we’ve ever had. She was there at checkin to show us around; she recommended and scheduled tours we went on, came to the house once to drive my wife down to meet a shuttle and she quickly responded to all questions. We heard and saw birds and iguanas at the house. The house is not new, but very well cared for, with loads of space and some exquisite wood furnishings. It was in a good location and the pool was very pleasant. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Muy buen lugar a pocos minutos del parque nacional Manuel Antonio. La propiedad de Tamara me pareció excelente: llena de árboles y vegetación, buenas vistas, se sentía como que estas dentro de la selva. Vimos tucanes, mapaches y monos cara blancas desde la terraza y sala. La casa es amplia y tiene muchas áreas de estar. La piscina era excelente. nos gustó mucho la sala de estar y la hamaca. la cocina muy equipada. Lo único es el calor que se siente en los cuartos. los ventiladores y las ventanas ayudan pero llegamos en el mero verano donde no había viento así que costo un poco conciliar sueño la primera noche. la segunda llovió así que refresco mucho. recomiendo 100% la casa de Tamara, es por si sola una experiencia y esta muy bien ubicada. gracias por todo!

This place was absolutely amazing and beautiful! The house with the open layout was perfect, the pool and the waterfall right out back was perfect, and then 20 steps to the beach. It’s not a tourist area at all so it’s pretty much a private beach. Israel, the caretaker was absolutely incredible! He was so nice and kind and helpful. He responded to anything that we needed. If you need something, ask him, he is the man. If you are going to do a mangrove boat tour, don’t book elsewhere, look no farther. Israel has the boat 10 steps from the driveway. He took eight of us on an amazing mangrove boat tour and saw monkeys and crocodiles and the mangroves. He is so good with kids! He just wants the kids to have a good time. We really appreciated him and enjoyed hanging out with him. Do you want to ride horses on the beach? No problem, he’ll have horses out back whenever you want them! And everything he set up for us, we felt was pretty reasonably priced. Thank you for an amazing week!!!

This place is a great find and an amazing location for the park, we loved seeing the wildlife in the garden and relaxing by the pool too. The staff were really friendly and helpful with parking and the bags. The breakfast was delicious and generous. Overall, this was great value and I would recommend.

Las casas estaban impecables. Muy limpias y bien equipadas. En lugar es precioso. Se ven pájaros y en la tarde a los largo se ven monitos. Lo único negativo que podría decir es que el lugar es un poco solo y que no hay como una malla que privatice la entrada a la casa, pero en realidad la recomiendo totalmente. Don Carlos y su familia, quienes ayudan en la casa son muy amables también

We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Castillo. The pool is tucked away into the canopy a bit, which we ended up appreciating as it gave more respite from the heat. The taxi drivers know the house well because of the steep driveway that only a few drivers without 4x4’s will attempt; the walk is serious so if you’re walking wear something you’re willing to sweat in! The housekeepers do a fantastic job and somehow you barely see them. We would definitely stay there again!

Buenas, la casa es cómoda, alejado de la carretera principal por lo que hay más silencio y poco trafico de carros

Pasamos 3 noches con nuestros hijos, disfrutamos mucho de la villa y la piscina. Johan fue muy servicial desde que llegamos hasta que salimos. El lugar es espectacular y no nos queríamos venir, definitivamente volveremos.

Excelente lugar, cumplen con todo lo estableció, la piscina es demasiado rica y el desayuno exquisito, las habitaciones muy lindas, espaciosas y muy limpias, totalmente recomendada

We had a lovely 2 night stay at the end of our Costa Rica vacation. It was a perfect place to settle in and unwind from all the adventures in our trip. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was great for cooking meals in. We did enjoy the restaurant on the hill (which you can see from the house) but note they only take cash. It was rated at the top of the best Costa Rica food we had. The drive was not as bad as I had anticipated since we had drove in Monteverde and other mountain towns. Definitely steep in some parts but moderate to places we had encountered before. I would still suggest at 4 wheel drive vehicle. Take a book or a family game and enjoy nature from the mountain top.

Great place with easy beach access but worth knowing that you will have to wade through waste deep water to access the beach. However, it was 100% worth it! Staff was great and they are very helpful and kind.

We absolutely loved staying here. Everything was magical and sitting outside was relaxing. We saw so many animals while staying there and the kids loved the pool! We had a grocery store and Soda walking distance away. Antonio was a gem. He did not speak English but he made sure everything was pristine. He is a true gem and willing to help direct parking and open the gate for us Some tips to help others….everything here is similar to the states. No suicide showers and lots of power plugs. Really the only issue we had is the upper bedrooms were too light and it gets bright early. Wasn’t a huge problem for us because we got up early to do activities while it was cool. We loved our stay! This place has ALL of the Pura Vida vibes.

The property was clean and comfortable, and the management team went above and beyond to ensure a great stay. Their kindness, responsiveness, and the thoughtful touch of providing a house cleaner every few days made the experience truly enjoyable!

The view from this Airbnb is absolutely breathtaking. We spent hours with our binoculars, watching toucans and macaws glide over the treetops with the ocean as a stunning backdrop. The price for that view is unbeatable. During our stay, construction started nearby, and it seems likely to continue through the year. The crew worked most of the day, so if you’re sensitive to noise, I’d recommend bringing headphones or another way to block out the sound. It would be wonderful if the city of Quepos considered limiting construction hours to balance development with the area’s natural beauty.
