Macaws and Sloths and Monkeys, Oh My! Villa Capuchin in Manuel Antonio

As you relax in the tranquil waters of the huge open-air pool or read a book in one of the poolside cabanas, you can hear the Macaws, sloths, and local monkeys as they make their way to and from the Manuel National Park following the nearby creeks and river flowing around the property.

Villa Capuchin is a modern, newly constructed 3 bedroom/2bath condo that is sure to make your vacation a relaxing and memorable experience. It is located close to town so you can easily access the local restaurants, bars, beaches, and stores. With a spacious living area to unwind, comfortable bedrooms to relax in, and a full kitchen for to prepare a meal or you can have a private chef cook a delicious meal for you.

We are located right on the river trail to the El Salto waterfall, have a huge BBQ in the large gazebo with family and friends, and have tons of private areas around the huge lit up pool to just lounge around and enjoy the surrounding gardens.

Your personal concierge, Jose, is accessible for anything you may need. He can schedule your local activities such as zip lining, hiking, jet ski tours, white water rafting, or help you navigate to one of the beautiful beaches near-by. He will also meet you at check in to give you a neighborhood tour

Beautiful property … excellent service
The property is beautiful, clean and exactly what you would want for a tropical getaway. Fabian, the property manager is very responsive and made check in and anything we needed seamless. The restaurant onsite has great food but Carlos and Kaj (his dog) are certainly the highlight. They are friendly, helpful and make you feel at home. Excellent location, close to everything and the organized tours will pickup from the property. Amazing experience, highly recommend.

There was mold
The place was nice and the pool was great. Unfortunately there was black mold in two of the bedrooms one of the women woke up sick and congested. Parking was also an issue and one night a “party” in another unit keep some of us awake all night.

The condo was clean and comfortable for family and there was a friendly bistro across the street to grab a meal. The pool was refreshing. The concierge was fabulous and so helpful when flights were delayed and luggage lost. Great memories of the place and time spent there!

Property as appeared but didn’t realize it was part of a larger complex of similar units. Nice pool, good sized living space. Peaceful and quiet. Kitchen missing a few things we needed. Kind maid service and Fabian the manager was kind and helpful.

Macaws & Monkeys at breakfast
From the time we first booked until we left Fabian the property manager was excellent, great communication. He booked us some fantastic trips. The horse riding and park tour were superb. We saw so much with our knowledgeable guides and I’d say you do need one to spot all the wildlife in the park. I was so worried about the white water rafting, but my family wanted to go, and our experience was excellent. Nothing to be scared of and the guides were very aware of the safety. The house was so nice, really clean and had everything we needed, could have done with taking a tea towel for drying up but we used the kitchen paper that was provided. There was even Netflix for the evening as most restaurants closed at 9pm but we were pretty exhausted from our wonderful day tours that it was fine. We woke up to watch the many birds and monkeys in the trees near the villa. And saw many sloths in the trees on the main road. The beaches were lovely and just a short drive away. There are buses to the main town and beach for $1 each way, that avoids having to pay to park. The property also had a guard that helped us find parking as that was a little tight. The pool was warm and very inviting and there was a bbq area that could be used right next to the pool. I would highly recommend this property.

Awesome property and location
We had a wonderful stay here in Quepos. I loved how it was off the beaten path yet so close to everything. We enjoyed the pool, visted Manuel Antonio, Rainmaker and did a zip line with Safri Adventures that was amaing and they picked us up from here. The condo was spacious we enjoyed seeing Macaws on the property. The property manager is very responsive. I would recommend.

Beautiful jungle escape
Very rural jungle location but still with access to restaurants and grocery shopping within 7 minutes drive. Excellent communication with a property manager. Quick drive to the beach. The only disappointment was National Park closure due to scam tickets.

Beautiful!
We were met by John's local manager, Fabian, who was terrific in communicating with us before, during and after our stay. Fabian arranged a fantastic tour of Manuel Antonio Park for us which was amazing. He also made several restaurant recommendations, and each one we tried was very good! The only small issue was with other guests playing loud music at the community pool our first evening but they left the next day and we had a lovely afternoon at the pool listening to all the different birds after our tour at the park. The location is convenient to the beach and all the activities too.

Paradise
This property was breathtaking. Our villa was incredible as was the pool. I would re-book in a heartbeat. Fabian exudes warmth and genuine kindness and a willingness to do anything for anyone. I cannot think of a single thing I would change. I was even able to watch the monkeys play in the treetops in the morning and the parrots flying across the property. We had huge windows on each side that allowed for incredible views, day and night. Can’t wait to return someday.

Gorgeous setting, quiet, lovely comfortable clean condo
We loved this well decorated comfortable condo in the jungle above Manuel Antonio/Quepos. We’d always stayed closer to the water but from now on will further up as it’s an easy short drive and much less crowded than closer to town and beach. If we’re ever in this area again, would definitely stay here!

Perfect family getaway
This beautiful property served as the perfect home base for our explorations around Manuel Antonio as well as Dominical and Uvita. The property is lovely and our kids loved the pool! The property manager was communicative and very helpful. There was some construction happening but it didn't both us. Definitely recommend!

Great Stay in a Beautiful Location!
I stayed here for two weeks with my adult children. It was a wonderful experience. Andres, the property manager, was outstanding! He helped us plan adventures, gave us suggestions for activities and helped us in so many ways. He really made sure our stay exceeded expectations. I can’t think of anything that could have made our stay better. The location is perfectly located between Manuel Antonio and Quepos, off the main road and very quiet. We were minutes away from the Park, the beaches and many great restaurants. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!

Stay was just OK
Overall, the home was clean, the space was great for a family, and the pictures for the interior of the unit were accurate. The property manager Andre was EXCELLENT. He Help with restaurant suggestions in booking all of our excursions. Every time I messaged him he answered immediately. Those are all the good things. Now I will tell you a few other things that were disappointing and I wish I had a known upfront. There is no AC in the main area and kitchen space. It’s not that the unit was extremely hot because Costa Rica did not get that hot… But it made the whole home just super humid and wet. Which created a sort of smell throughout the property. There was AC in the bedrooms. Also, one of the reasons I booked it was for the beautiful pictures of the pool. The pool is in disrepair. The pool itself is stained and cracking, and all of the cushions on the lounge chairs had mold and Mildew all over them. We were not able to use the pool once the whole time we were there. Also… there were ants in the kitchen and dining area. If you left a bowl in the sink for 5 minutes, it would be covered with them. Obviously, after that happened 1 time we cleaned everything immediately, but they still seemed to come. The cleaning ladies were very nice and would even do the dishes if you left them rinsed out in the sink, but the property has no dishwasher. For the price and space, it was fine, but unfortunately, we will not be coming back. Oh… one more thing, we were there a full week and did not see any animal activity at all except a few birds. No monkeys, sloths, really anything that was advertised!! (Not anyone’s fault, just saying it like it is.) I have pics of the pool, but don’t see how to upload them…

Perfect for what we needed
The condo is gorgeous. Even nicer than photos. Large, bright and airy this space was fantastic for our family of 5. We had a very short stay but kitchen seemed fully stocked plus bedrooms and bathrooms were super comfortable and top notch. Management met us promptly at property upon arrival and gave us fantastic recommendations for local restaurants and activities. Had a bit of an issue with timely responses from them afterward and a hiccup with bath towels that never arrived but our time at condo was very short and we made do. The location could be challenging without a car but wasn’t a problem for us. We only stayed one night but could have easily stayed much longer. Pool and outdoor space are lovely though we didn’t have time to enjoy it. Overall a true gem!
