Villa Bella Vista: Views, Privacy & Beach Proximity, We Have It All Right Here

Villa Bella Vista is a six bedroom house recently designed and built specifically as a luxurious, rental vacation home. As one of the 4 residential homes closest to the beach, the ocean views are amongst the very best in town, guaranteed! As a home designed for entertaining large groups, the pool is one of the largest, longest residential pools in town, guaranteed! As one of the few homes situated on a private road, the house is more private, more jungle-like and more secure than the vast majority of other rental properties, guaranteed!

Views from the front bedrooms are breath taking and amazing, the monkeys, sloths and birds are all around you. The Sunsets are a phenomenon and the roar of the ocean waves is all that you hear over the sounds of animals, birds and jungle life. Centrally located in Manuel Antonio, the house is walking distance to at least 5 restaurants and less than 1.5 miles from another 10 restaurants and cafes.


The spacious kitchen and indoor living room look out over the roar of the ocean directly at Elephant Rock. The enormous outdoor patio is both under roof and under open sky, so sun worshippers and shade worshippers both share a perfect world. As visitor, you will feel you are part of the jungle as well as part of the ocean panaroma with views of the Manuel Antonio Park. This 3 story house has the cozy comfort of a moderate sized structure but the expansive capacity of a full six bedroom structure. There is safety and privacy for those that wisely seek such comforts.

Best vacation we’ve ever had
This country, this house, this vacation-it was everything we had hoped for. I cannot stress enough how lovely it was from the early phases of nailing out a home to support our group of 12 to the very last steps onto the airplane. This listing does not do the home or the staff justice. Fernando, Maria, John and the entire crew are so entirely pleasant and eager to assist in every way. Maria helped plan each of our 5 excursions, booked all transportation to and from these excursions and airports, filled the home with groceries of our choice, helped order delivery food service, provided her expert chef and bar services, and assisted us in every step of the way. The home was magnificent. The views and the rooms are better than the pictures depict. It is spacious, inviting and homey. Our group of 12 unanimously agreed that this was the best trip we’ve had and we are a well-travelled crew! Just book it!

Unanimous: Trip of a Lifetime
The Bella Vista experience exceeded ALL of our expectations. We brought our two daughters families, six adults and six children-ages 8-14. All loved the home, the setting, the concierge/chef services, and access to fun excursions. The home: not sure you can find a better home. The view of the ocean framed by the natural jungle was breathtaking. The pool was a huge hit. I measured it almost 25 yards long. It was an idyllic play place! The home is spacious. The pool area is large to relax, with a nice natural canopy. The patio outside the kitchen was expansive with the best views of the ocean. The bedrooms were all big, with plenty of elbow space. The setting was gorgeous. Bella Vista is nestled amongst the jungle. You feel that you’re in the middle of nature. Monkeys abound. They’re so fun to watch. The property has beautiful fauna. It would have been a bonus if it was easier to get to the beaches. Though access to the beach is only at most a half mile away, we felt the walk along the narrow, winding roads with limited sidewalks were not safe. The concierge, Maria, and her right hand assistant, Kiera, were spectacular. I highly recommend their meals, so good and tasty. They were maestros with their ingredients. More than that was their kindness and generosity. They made our stay very special. Maria was great with planning ahead of time, and an outstanding communicator. A nicer set of people cannot be found! Highly recommend. Six stars!

Great for Family Getaway
This is the perfect property for multiple families. We celebrated my mom’s 70th with 7 adults/ 5 kids and the property was very comfortable and spacious. Pool setup is ideal with incredible views and lots of wildlife. Maria and Kiara provided incredible chef services - our favorite meals of the trip!

Amazing!
We just spent a week at Villa Bella Vista with Maria and it was amazing. Pictures don't do the beauty of the home and grounds any justice. Just beautiful. Views from patio, some of the bedrooms and the pool were incredible. The pool is really large and accommodated ourgroup of 12 with ease. Wildlife is active all around the house and pool. Great location to the beach and dining or shopping. Maria and Fernando were wonderful. So informative and helpful. One of our group had their flight change and she drove all the way to San Jose to pick them up at 9pm and bring them all the way to Manuel Antonio. The meals we had them do for us were all perfect and extremely reasonably priced. She even helped us guys get our significant others flowers and Valentine's Day treats for them. Do not hesitate to book this home for your Costa Rican trip. Do note that the 5th and 6th bedrooms are different than the rest. 5th is smaller and shares a bathroom with the 6th bedroom but is fine overall. The 6th bedroom is more of a kids bunk type room. Plenty of space but no door to block it from the rest of the lower living space.

Costa Rican Paradise
There is something to be said about a beautiful home that comes with a knowledgable concierge. The home was beautiful and had everything we needed. Maria (property manager and concierge) really made the vacation easy. She answered every question, setup excursions and even performed chef services. We can't wait to go back!

You will believe you are in Eden
We were three generation family of 12 and we felt everything about this home and its agents were absolutely perfect. House is beautiful and very functional, comfort table and the setting is perfection. Extremely well thought out architectural plan - great views from virtually everywhere. The pool was heavenly. Close to everything restaurants, stores, national park etc. Maria Zúñiga was a very competent and caring concierge. We arranged to have her cater two dinners for our large group. She is a great chef, enjoyable to spend time with and extremely helpful and confident. Be sure to go on a whitewater raft trip and the waterfall tour. We travel as a family all over the world and are not easily given to superlatives BUT this was one our best trips ever. Sincerely - do not hesitate to book this home.

Family Celebration
My family had an amazing week celebrating our Nana’s 80th Birthday at Bella Vista. We had 9 people and space to come together, yet if you needed privacy the house has space for that also. The pictures do not do the views and house justice, absolutely magical. We spent many afternoons enjoying the spectacular views from the pool. Maria and her team were amazing! We had Maria and Kiara prepare 5 meals for us and we all agreed they were the best meals we had in Manuel Antonio. The monkeys came everyday to give us entertainment and make us laugh as they swung from the trees. If we had questions or needs, Maria quickly solved them! We hope to come back soon!

Our family vacation could not have been better due, in large part, to Maria, Fernando and their staff. The food was incredible and the drinks were refreshing and perfectly made. We had to keep pinching ourselves that we were really there. Maria also arranged our drivers to and from the airport and the excursions. That really made it easy for us. You will love this villa and the view of the Pacific! ❤️
