Our stay at Casa Nola was magical in so many ways! Every detail was planned in the weeks leading up to our stay with Luis. And from arriving in San Jose to the minute we left it was perfect! Our excursions, restaurant reservations, chef, transportation- everything so perfect! The house was a dream - sunsets every night, the pool, hot tub- all the amenities superb! We saw monkeys and macaws and all sorts of wildlife! We traveled as a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 teenagers) and it was amazing! Thank you for everything! We will be back!
This is an absolutely beautiful home. The view from the pool is breathtaking! You should expect visitors from wildlife like monkeys, macaws, and geckos. After a fun morning of activities we loved coming home to enjoy the pool and hot tub. We enjoyed delicious food at restaurants nearby and also the wonderful meals prepared by the in home chef. We would love to come back, but if we donât you should definitely visit.
Where to even begin?!? This vacation was everything we were hoping for and more. With busy lives back in the states and never being able to fully relax, this was the place to do just thatâŠRELAX! From the moment we stepped off the plane In San Jose to the time we stepped foot at Casa Nola, everything was so thought out and planned by our amazing property manager, Luis. He took care of all transportation, all planned activities, chef services and kept our house cleaned daily with our amazing housekeeper. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Manuel Antonio and Casa Nola. Casa Nola is perfect for a large family with four separate bedrooms and their own bathroom. Each one of my teenagers felt like they had their own little corner of the house. It was so clean and new and I felt right at home. Monkeys came daily and put on quite a show and the birds were everywhere, but the view of the ocean was my favorite part! My heart holds a special place for that little piece of paradise and I would highly recommend not only Casa Nola but the amazing little town of Manuel Antonio. Pura Vida â€ïž
This house is an absolute dream to stay in! Just beautiful in every way. The design, decor and view were all stunning. Every detail of the home was impressive. We feel so blessed that the owners allow this home to be rented and they share this experience with others.
We had two families in our group, each with three kids so 10 people total. This include three older teens and one thet was 12. It had plenty of room for everyone. There were essentially two master bedrooms for the two couples. The 6 kids each had a bed, which included sharing a queen or king.
Our concierge Luis was amazing and helped us line up all of our activities in advance. We did the Manuel Antonio Park Tour (highly recommend) with tour Guide Bebe (she was so very knowledgeable and amazing), the Buggy tour with Jordie and Luis (they rocked), the Catamaran tour on the Ocean King (loved), off shore fishing with Sweet Dreams - great boat and crew (caught 11 tuna!), and finally the 10 in 1 tour with Amigos Del Rio (Kyler, Michael, Franklin - this was our #1 tour). Luis also set up a private chef - Reimy. He was also a highlight of the trip and cooked the tuna we caught. it was the most amazing dinner!
The housekeeper comes every other day and is so sweet and it is such a treat to have her services.
Be prepared to tip everywhere! We typically do not travel with a ton of cash but in this case, you should be prepared to bring it or visit ATM regularly, which gets to be a pain.
The house is beautifully built with a well thought out plan. Its very private location in a gated community opens to a stunning view of the ocean. The pool overhangs a cliff with a firepit and seating area next to it. We didnât use the outdoor kitchen for cooking, but we did have a chef prepare dinner for one night: fantastic chef from the Verde team. We had monkeys & macaws visit everyday; the highlight of our stay. Each spacious bedroom has a private entrance. Overall, itâs a beautiful and relaxing place and we loved our stay!
Casa Nola was amazing! It was perfect for my group and we had a blast zip lining, jumping off waterfalls and going to the beach!! Canât wait to come back!!!
Incredible home with an even better support team.
Luis, Xinia and Chef Jeinor are all fantastic people who make your trip exceptional.
Thankful to have stayed at Casa Nola.
Saw lots of macaws and enjoyed watching the boats come and go.
Highly recommend this place!

Embrace the beauty of Costa Rica! Casa Nola is the most amazing place!
Casa Nola is the best of the best! This villa has it all! The view of the ocean was amazing along with the many visitors that came right to the pool deck almost every day! Monkeys, macaws, parrots and all kinds of birds! We found ourselves being content to totally embracing it all! If you are a sunset loverâŠthis is the place for you! This was our most favorite VRBO by far! We appreciated the staff that cared for us during our stay! Pura Vida!
Wow! This place was amazing and we are so thankful for the owners having shared it with us. We tried to find anything with the house that we would ahve done differently but couldnt come up with one. single. thing. 5 stars all the way around!
