Peaceful Jungle Views

Great views, comfortable stay

Casa Sandra was great. The house is in a good location near parks, beaches and restaurants. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. We loved the wildlife near the home as well. We saw monkeys every day from the upstairs patio. The host was easy to reach and very helpful. We would stay here again.

Casa Sandra was our favorite Costa Rican experience. The house itself is better than any excursion tour in the area. The gourmet chef experience was phenomenal.

So much going for this property, except....

We wanted to love this property. And we do. It's a great house in an amazing location. The problem is communication. We literally had to chase the property manager to get our two cleanings that "were included" and got the feeling that they would not have occured otherwise. Then the a/c broke and twice the property manager said she would send out a technician and instead tried to first get the pool maintenance person to fix it, then second tried to get the cleaning lady to fix it. Finally after 48 hours of this and the a/c still broken, sensing our frustration, she finally sent out an actual hvac technician. And throughout this, she never came to meet anyone she sent to the home - we were expected to be there to let them in and oversee their work. We tried to resolve this via an email sent to both property managers while we were still there, wanting to give them a chance to make things right, and both emails went completely unanswered. We own and have managed several short term rentals and work extremely hard to maintain our ratings and communication and response consistently rates as the number one criteria for a good rating - sad to say that completely ignoring us left a very sour taste for us. Sad, because we love Costa Rica, love Manuel Antonio and loved this house and location.

Perfection!

My husband and I spent a blissful week at Casa Sandra. The house is beautiful, comfortable and well appointed. We spent a lot of time relaxing on the balconies, enjoying the view of the Pacific and birds. The concierge, Maria, was absolutely wonderful. A perfect vacation!

Incredible Honeymoon!

Stayed here a week for our honeymoon, and got to compare at a resort (similar price) for our last night. We enjoyed our time at Casa Sandra so much more! Incredible views of the ocean ajd jungle, beautiful spacious rooms, well-equipped kitchen, quiet and off the road yet close enough to the bus stop to get everywhere quickly! Cannot recommend enough.

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Sandra! Even the monkeys on our bedroom patio waking us up early in the morning!! Great location and easy to hop on a bus or get a taxi. We will definitely recommend this to friends and family. Maria was excellent and answered all our questions quickly and professionally.

Pura Vida!

Great spot. Close enough to walk to shops, restaurants, and store yet the feel jungle. I would caution families of young children or older adults with mobility issues as the stairs for the bedrooms are steep and not ideal without full mobility. Nice and communicative staff. We were referred to Josue for a tour in Manuel Antonio and he was fantastic. Overall a great getaway! Thanks!

The house, the host and Maria were exceptional! It truly feels like you are in the jungle with the views and all of the different animals. It is in a great location: delicious restaurants (with stunning sunset views) are within walking distance and there is a small store at the bottom of the hill/road, which was very convenient. If you are looking for a reason to book this place here it is! Enjoy!

Casa Sandra is great!

Casa Sandra is a fully equipped home in a very convenient location. It has 3 lovely balconies and each allows a unique perspective of the jungle, plus the top level has a great ocean view. The wildlife completely surrounds you. It is tucked away, and yet you are totally central to the all the good restaurants, the excursions, and have easy access to the park and the beach. Maria the house manager was also super helpful. We will be back.

Great place

Extra large “art deco” home, beautifully furnished, clean and comfortable. Nice outdoor spaces to enjoy the cheeky monkeys and other smaller wildlife including toucans passing overhead. We cooked almost all our meals and the kitchen was more than adequate. Parking entry is angled, narrow and steep, but can get the hang of it. We fell in love with Manuel Antonio’s Nat Park (paid entry online) and opted to leave the car behind and catch Ubers to avoid parking hassles, and spent everyday there. Home is on 3 levels and internal stairs are concrete and winding, something to be aware of for young children with shorter legs or those with mobility challenges. Concierge María was great, she was also quick to respond including to a minor issue that cropped up and helped us book two tours. We had no neighborhood noises, it was quiet, peaceful and private.

A little bit of paradise

Loved the place, the town, the food and the tours. Maria was awesome. She took care of all of our needs including setting up two tours with a fantastic guide and making great restaurant recommendations. The place is fantastic including visits from monkeys and toucans. Sliding doors are hard to operate and should be serviced. Otherwise, five stars.

Great Place. Great location.

Everything went smoothly. The property manager was awesome. She helped sched all of our activities for the week. The home is well known in town so Taxi drivers knew where to take you. Safe area w house alarm. Main advice for Costa Rica is you get better deals if you use cash. Beautiful country!

Perfect Vacation!

The home and location are perfect...the house manager "Maria" is the absolute best at what she does. I cannot say enough about her and her flawless service. She is truly amazing & we cannot thank her enough for all of her time and assistance during our stay. The home is in a great location and very close to all of the excursions. Our guide for the park "Joseph" was also the best and I highly recommend him for the private tours to Manuel Antonio Park. The home is lovely and I cannot recommend it highly enough...you will love it! Thank you Miss Maria-you are amazing!! Can't wait to visit again in the near future.
