Amazing Stay
Perfect place to stay in Manuel Antonio! Walking distance to numerous restaurants and beaches! And an amazing view of Manuel Antonio National Park. All staff made us feel at home and welcome and were a huge help with any questions we had. We loved swimming in the pool every day! Everything was clean and just like the pictures.

Beautiful large house in a great location
We were 14 family members ages 3 to 77 for a week after Christmas. The highlights are the pool and the 3rd floor deck and living room with a gorgeous view of the ocean and forest. Watching the wildlife was fantastic: caracaras came to sit on the railing, toucans and macaws regularly flew by and perched in nearby trees, and howler, capuchino, and squirrel monkeys would come to investigate. The house is huge with plenty of bedrooms and space for everyone to spread out - although we usually congregated around the pool or the large 3rd floor deck and living room. The housekeeper cleaned daily and the groundskeeper kept the pool and outdoor grill pristine. Communication with the manager was fantastic - he arranged a cook for several meals and kayak, zipline, and rafting tours and was available on short notice for questions. For example, the icemaker stopped working and he had two bags of ice delivered very quickly. There were plenty of good quality eating utensils, cups, and glasses in both the 3rd floor kitchen and in the outdoor kitchen by the pool, but - to be picky - the cooking facilities on the upper level could be upgraded for serious foodies. There are plenty of beds including 4 kings, but two small rooms have double beds that -if you have a large group like ours - may not seem as attractive as the king rooms. But, in the end, everyone was happy with their sleeping arrangements. Overall, it was a terrific, no-worry week.

Excellent house and staff in a great area for a good price!
We had an amazing trip! We were told that there was a change of ownership and the switch over was seamless! The nature around the house was mind boggling and the house was convenient to everything. Thanks so much for answering all of my questions and the responses were sent immediately.

property in very poor condition, nonfunctional bathroom, no WiFi, unresponsive management
1. One of the bathrooms had a nonfunctioning toilet. It was obvious it had been leaking for quite a while (there was significant water damage on the floor). Management promised to send a handyman but it was never fixed. 2. The WiFi did not work at any point. We contacted the property manager several times and were given a different explanation/story each time. Again, never fixed. 3. The listing says there is a washer and dryer. Our group was counting on having access to this but were told the machines were for the sole use of housekeeping staff. We would not have booked the property if we had known this. 4. The bottom of the balcony pool had many missing tiles and they were constantly breaking off. 5. Top floor full-length windows were not bolted in and in fact there was a 6-inch gap in the wall when we arrived as the window was not in its proper placement. Very concerning, both for security reasons as well as personal safety. 6. Overall extremely rundown condition. 7. Property manager did not respond promptly and did not keep any promises. We contacted the property manager several times a day about all of these issues but nothing was ever resolved. We have since been told that the property was sold *during* our stay and due to this gray area neither the previous owner/property manager, the current owner/property manager, or VRBO is willing to accept any responsibility thus far. Stay far away.

Manuel Antonio with 3 Families
Overall a great week in Manuel Antonio. The house was as described and would recommend. I thought the best thing to do was answer some of the questions I had. 1) The walk to the beach is 10-15 minutes down a very steep road. Small children or older adults would struggle with this walk. 2) The beach at the bottom of the road is really long and has several bars, stores, hotels on it. There are plenty of places to have a private beach feel and other places that are more public feeling. The water here can be very rough and there is a rip current at times. 3) The walk to restaurants is very doable up a steep hill, but you have to be comfortable walking on a road with no sidewalk. Drivers are generally on the lookout but there are blind turns. 4) Make sure you research the layout of the house. As mentioned, it is separate units that are all connected via courtyards and outside stairs. It worked well for us with 3 families but the experience would be interesting if you were there with strangers. The views on the top floor are the best and the kitchen up there is the only fully equiped one. 5) Chris the property manager is super nice and did a great job with the surf lessons for the kids, I highly recommend this. He also arranged for a chef for certain nights and mornings for us and that was great. 6) There are housekeepers there every day so it was very clean. 7) You don't need a car and taxis are readily available and not that expensive in the Quepos area.

This property is great for a large group or multiple families looking for individual spaces while staying together. The view from the upper floors is beautiful and the location is great - wishing walking distance to everything!

Perfect Location and Great Staff
While the property looks great on VRBO, it's even better in person! We were able to walk to beaches, restaurants, and grocery stores (although the house is on a hill, so it's rather strenuous). It could not have been more convenient. And the view! It's what I miss most! Lastly, Chris, the property manager made great recommendations and helped with every inquiry within minutes! I will stay here again if I make it back to Costa Rica!

Beautiful Casa
We booked Casa Diamante to house our family of 10 during our wedding weekend and the property was perfect. The different suite types matched exactly what we were looking for, with the Toucan apartment being a perfect fit for my cousin's family of 4 with 2 kids, the Iguana suites working well for elderly parents who can't take stairs, and the penthouse being a great area to gather for breakfast, which Chris helped us book. Our family was pleased with the stay and the kids enjoyed how large the pool was. Chris was not there to physically check us in and the bedroom door to the master suite was locked so we had to hunt down one of the staff members, but it was resolved relatively quickly. We were very thankful to have access to Casa Diamante for our wedding weekend as it allowed our full family to stay about 5 minutes away from our villa property.
