About the home

Set high above the rainforest canopy, this private luxury villa offers one of the most commanding views in Manuel Antonio. From its elevated position, the landscape opens wide—lush jungle below, the Pacific stretching endlessly beyond, and a rare 270-degree panorama that feels both expansive and deeply private. Surrounded by nature and untouched by noise, the villa delivers true tranquility, where days unfold slowly and sunsets paint the sky in unforgettable color.

Designed to Welcome Nature In

The villa’s architecture is intentionally open, allowing the surrounding environment to become part of the experience. Soaring bamboo ceilings, handcrafted from native materials, crown light-filled living spaces that flow effortlessly into the outdoors. Ceiling fans and natural breezes move gently through the home, carrying the sounds of the forest and the distant ocean. Whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee or a relaxed afternoon indoors, the connection to nature is constant and calming.

Four Private Bedroom Retreats

Spread across four levels, the villa’s layout offers both comfort and privacy. Each bedroom occupies its own floor, creating peaceful personal spaces for every guest. Two master suites feature king beds, spacious spa-style bathrooms with Jacuzzi tubs, and private balconies overlooking the forest and sea. The additional bedrooms offer queen beds and beautifully finished ensuite bathrooms with stone accents and thoughtful details. Every room enjoys ocean views, air conditioning, and a quiet atmosphere designed for rest and renewal.

Poolside Relaxation Above the Forest

The 25-foot pool terrace sits just beyond the living spaces, appearing to float above the jungle below. Built-in sun loungers invite long, unhurried afternoons in the water, while a shaded rancho provides a comfortable retreat from the tropical sun. From here, views extend across rolling hills and coastline, especially striking as the light softens toward evening. For nights in, a private chef experience can be arranged, transforming the villa into an intimate dining retreat.

Perfectly Located Manuel Antonio Vacation Home

Ideally positioned near Manuel Antonio National Park, the beaches, and the town of Quepos, the villa offers easy access to the region’s best adventure experiences. Ziplining, wildlife tours, waterfall hikes, boating, sportfishing, and parasailing are all nearby. Quepos Marina adds dining, shopping, and live music, while the local airport—just 20 minutes away—makes arrival and departure seamless.

An Escape That Feels Effortless

This villa is more than a place to stay—it’s a place to truly arrive. The balance of comfort, privacy, and natural beauty creates an experience that feels unforced and authentic. Wake to birdsong, unwind with ocean breezes, and enjoy a home that offers everything you need, without distraction. It’s the kind of escape that feels easy, grounding, and quietly unforgettable.

A Tropical Masterpiece at Casa Dolce Vita!

Stayed May 2026
Brian
If you are looking for the quintessential Manuel Antonio experience, Casa Dolce Vita delivers it with effortless elegance. We recently wrapped up a 4-night stay at this stunning property, and it is rare to find a home that manages to be both architecturally impressive and deeply comfortable. The Property & Amenities The home is exceptionally well-maintained and "well-stocked" is an understatement—it truly felt like a private residence where every detail had been considered. The layout maximizes the coastal breeze, and the interior spaces are designed for relaxation. The View & Wildlife The crown jewel of this villa is undoubtedly the infinity pool. Spending the golden hour here is a must; the panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean are breathtaking. However, the real show-stoppers were the "neighbors." While lounging in the pool, we were treated to incredible wildlife sightings. From capuchin monkeys swinging through the canopy to toucans and sloths in the surrounding trees, it felt like having a private seat at a world-class nature documentary. Service & Concierge What truly elevated our stay from great to unforgettable was the service, specifically from our concierge, Andres. He was incredibly kind, professional, and went out of his way to ensure our logistics were seamless. Andres curated and booked two excursions for us that were highlights of the trip. Having someone so helpful and knowledgeable on-site takes all the stress out of the "planning" phase of a vacation. The Verdict: Casa Dolce Vita offers the perfect blend of luxury, nature, and high-end service. Whether you’re watching the sunset over the Pacific or spotting wildlife from the pool, this home provides a magical backdrop for a Costa Rican getaway. We can’t recommend it—and Andres—highly enough!

Incredible experience!

This house was unbelievable. We stayed for 5 nights with our two teenage kids and I cannot imagine a better place to be. We had a few planned adventures, but we always looked forward to getting “home” to see what kind of wildlife visitors awaited us. We spent hours sitting in the living room watching multiple species of monkeys and birds visit the house. We loved being able to walk into town for breakfast and dinner and we especially loved our private chef, Javier!! Highly recommend that you ask for Javier to prepare an incredible dinner one night- definitely worth it in every way. Our Concierge, Andres, and housekeeper Mina were both awesome at making sure we had everything we needed. We are not even to the airport and missing it already! 11/10!

Fantastic Family Vacation

Our family rented Casa Dolce Vita with my parents and my sister for spring break and our week was absolutely dreamy. The villa is better than the photos on the website. Mina took such wonderful care of us and the property. Having chef Hairo come and make us dinners was truly one of the best parts of our vacation. 10/10 no notes. If you are even thinking about booking with Escape Villas do it! You won’t regret it.

Would come back in a heartbeat!
