Great support prior to and during our stay. The house is amazing. Be advised there are a lot of stairs, in case anyone in your party would have difficulty with that.

We had an incredible stay at Casa Samba! Our group of 7 adults and a child found the space more than ample for everyone. David was a fantastic host, meeting us late in the evening upon our arrival and ensuring we had a pack 'n play for the baby. He even helped schedule a chef, brought a birthday cake from a nearby bakery, and found us the perfect beach spot! David was always prompt and available via message.Casa Samba was exceptionally comfortable and spacious. The pool exceeded our expectations—it easily accommodated 4 adults at a time and was both clean and warm. We were delighted by daily visits from monkeys and sightings of many toucans from the balconies. The view from Casa Samba is absolutely breathtaking!The house was spotless, and the daily cleaning service was a wonderful perk. The housekeeper even did our laundry, which was particularly helpful when traveling with a baby. I highly recommend this property if you're staying in Manuel Antonio. Emilio's Cafe is nearby and an excellent place to eat!

We enjoyed a week in Manual Antonio at Casa Samba. We enjoyed the monkey visitors to the porch and lounging in the pool and balcony. The A/C was great in the bedrooms, the rest of the home is open air. David was a great host, we had excellent communication before and during our stay.

We loved everything about this house! The house is in a wonderful location, super clean and has plenty of space for everyone so that you don’t feel like you’re on top of one another all the time. The kids really enjoyed the daily visits from the monkeys. David our concierge was wonderful and Roxy the house keeper was also great! Definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Casa Samba was a wonderful villa for our stay in Manuel Antonio. We all loved the floor plan of the villa. The kids loved the pool table. The pool was very refreshing after a day doing excursions. We were visited by the monkeys daily, that was fun. David was such a great help with anything we needed, mostly taxis. Roxie was there every day cleaning the villa and washed our clothes while we were there. This is a must stay vacation villa for your stay in Manuel Antonio.

Overall - these were incredible accommodations from many aspects. First - great location and great view. This was a beautiful view of the ocean and of Manuel Antonio national park. The location was great - easy access to restaurants, short drive to Manuel Antonio park, easy access to grocery stores and if you are booking excursions you can be picked up right at the Villa. Second - the bedrooms and separate showers were great - plenty of room for the family to spread out and it was fun for the kids picking which room to sleep in as each had a different view with unique features (e.g. outdoor shower). Third, it had great amenities on top of just a place to stay - a refreshing pool that overlooks the ocean, TVs, pool table. Fourth - one of key attractions to us since we had never been to Costa Rica was the chance to see wildlife directly from the Villa - it didn't disappoint and we actually saw 3 different types of monkeys during our 4 night stay. This was very exciting for the family. Would definitely stay here again.

We absolutely loved everything about our stay, the house and views are amazing, the pictures truly do not do it justice. The home is split between different levels so there are a lot of stairs, but it just adds to the character of the home! We woke up every day to wildlife including howler monkeys, white faced capuchins, scarlet Mccaws, toucans, and even a 3 toed sloth hung out with us in the trees eye level with the top balcony! The host is very responsive and helpful! The town is safe and walkable, we could not have hoped for a better experience!

We had an incredible week at Casa Samba. The house is lovely and very well located. Everything was smooth from the check in to the check out. David was waiting for us to show us around upon our arrival and gave us great food recommendations. He also got groceries ahead of us getting there which was super helpful. Roxy the house keeper was amazing, super friendly and very helpful. We had Chef Carlos twice and all the food was delicious, he was super kind to my kids and accommodating on my husband dietary restrictions. We had tons of visitors from monkeys, a sloth, Tucanes and the Macaws. My girls had a blast playing pool and watching the monkeys past by. We all enjoy the work out as the house has a lot of stairs 😂. We totally recommend this property.

We had an amazing time at Casa Samba! From the breathtaking views to the top notch accommodations to the attentive and knowledgeable hospitality service. Our stay was one that will be remembered. The location is within walking distance of numerous restaurants but be forewarned that it is hilly. Luckily that wasn’t a problem for our group and there are plenty of car services you can use. From the moment we booked till the time we departed the communication w management was fantastic. Some things we enjoyed and would recommend. A home cooked dinner by Marco was an incredible way to start our stay after a long drive. We also enjoyed a catamaran sunset cruise. The beach concierge was worth the additional expense and Felix was a perfect tour guide for our group through the National Park. He was super knowledgeable and left us in awe of the wildlife in this park. We would definitely return back to Casa Samba and its monkeys. Extra shot out to David for all he did for this crew. Mucho Gracias!

the home was beautiful and i would love to rate it higher, however, I would not recommend having young children ... to have the windows open in the kitchen/dining area leaves a drop off to the pool and outside from the pool, there is a drop off as well (no railings, just the ledge of the pool). I have a 3yo and we were on edge the whole time worrying about him. the other thing is the immense amount of stairs. this is probably pretty common in the area, but again not great for young children as the stairs to all the upper floors were very narrow and steep. there were many great things about the home if you don't have young kids and don't mind the stairs. the monkeys (capuchin)came: 2 times every day, early morning and early evening. we also saw squirrel monkeys midday and the howler monkeys were nearby, not close enough to see unless you have binoculars.

We are so happy we rented this home in Costa Rica. Our family, (grown children) had so much hanging together on the deck, the kitchen, and the top level. The house was so clean!! Roxie came everyday to clean and do laundry, such a treat!! David our manager was exceptional as well. He promptly answered our calls and arranged transportation when needed. We booked our excursions ahead of time time through Gary. Gary also arranged transportation for the excursions. We also had a chef come one night and dinner was sooooo delicious. On the other nights we walked to dinner! So much fun to walk to dinner and see the monkeys:). The white face monkeys did take some fresh fruit off our island, when we were there. They seemed to show up around meal time, he he. That was pretty cool!! The AC in the bedrooms worked soooo well. The stairs in the house were narrow and steep. Our parents would have had a difficult time, but we welcomed the stairs, great exercise. The view in person is so much prettier in person than on-line. Don't hesitate, book now and create such amazing family memories :).

We just returned from an amazing stay at Casa Samba. This is a beautiful and well decorated home. Note: this is a very vertical property and there are several spiral staircases. This property might not be ideal for those with mobility issues or very young children. But, we loved it for our school-age children (who enjoyed their own 2 bedroom "apartment" accessed from the deck of the main house) and it would be great with teenagers. We worried about the size of the pool (which is deep but not full size), but it worked even with 8 people in it. The deck area has both sun and shade; we spent a lot of time there and the view is AMAZING. The service here is SPECTACULAR. All of the excursions we selected were terrific-- pick-ups were on time; staff were professional and informed; they were great with kids; everyone spoke English very well. Ask for Manuel as your guide for the national park tours! Our favorite perk was Chef Junior. He is so friendly and accommodating and gentle, in addition to being a great chef. The food was very fresh; we tried different juices every day; Junior appeased our picky eaters. It was such a pleasure to have his meals after a long and hot day of excursions. Finally, this house is very well located--a short drive to the national park and main beach, as well as to Playa Biesanz (which is smaller and nice for families); also a short walk to grocery store, ATM, and souvenir shops, as well as to El Avion restaurant, which kids will enjoy.

Possibly the most beautiful house we've stayed in. Each room was spacious with great attention to detail both aethstetically and functionally. Upstairs deck with TV and pool table was an amazing space with gorgeous views. And yes, they call it the "Monkey Room" for good reason. We got our fill of Capuchins making themselves at home there and even saw some of the more rare Squirrel monkeys. Pool on main level was small, but useful, and had a great view of the Pacific, facing toward the park. Kitchen had everything for cooking and meals in, which is mostly what we did. We were my family of four (two teenage girls) plus my mother, my sister, and her two young children (a toddler and an infant). Communication was great, as was check in and check out. My family lives in Costa Rica and knew are way around, including exactly what activities we wanted to do, so didn't require any help, but the crew there was ready to help arrange anything we wanted and I couldn't help but notice in the Guestbook how many people absolutely loved the available on site chef for quality, variety and flexibility. Need to know stuff: -depending on your definition of "walking distance", this house possibly isn't. It's more than a few hot, sweaty minutes up the hill to the main road through Manuel Antonio in the area of Café Milagro. My daughters and I, sure. My mother, sister and her kids...not so much. -Stairs!! Did not catch this in one of the other reviews, but there are STAIRS. Over 50 just to get from the street to the house. Hauling our cooler of food was challenging, as well as some of the larger luggage. And inside the house, every room is on a different level accessed by a steep spiral staircase, one bed room three flights up. Combined with a lack of railings around the pool area and deck (for fantastic views, mind you), it made for a real long weekend trying to manage an active 3 year old. All that being said, it was definitely a 5 star experience at a very fair price and we would love to stay here again. Just without very small children and a big cooler.

We stayed at the property in early December and enjoyed our stay. The property is beautiful with some truly amazing views. We had monkeys, toucans, scarlet macaws, iguana's and other wildlife visit the home every day. The Escape Villa's team was great to work with and very responsive. David, Gary and Roxy were all very nice and happy to help with anything we needed. We booked a few activities through Escape Villas and couldn't have been happier. We would love to come back and stay again, the view of Manuel Antonio is really remarkable. We traveled from the states and had no issues getting around from our Casa Samba base camp. Playa Playitas was a beautiful beach and less crowded than some of the others. Manuel Antonio park beaches were absolutely stunning. Looking forward to the next trip!

The communication with Gary and David our host was fantastic they made sure that all our requests were met, Roxy the housekeeper was efficient and always had a smile. Jose the private chef and his assistant Kim were top notch and I would highly recommend everyone to use them. Now let’s get to the home, you hear people often say the pictures don’t do it justice but in this case it is true the view is spectacular each room is amazing and the wildlife we experienced can’t be be compared, from morning coffee with the capuchin and howler monkeys to evening cocktails with the sloths and macaw’s. Our stay at Casa Samba will be a memory our family will forever cherish, I’ll finish by saying there is no need for an alarm clock because you’ll be awakened by the beautiful sounds of nature every morning!

Our family of four (twin, 13 year old boys) loved every minute of our stay. Between the pool, the pool table and the wild life == there was never a dull moment for our otherwise easily bored teenagers. Wish we'd had our good camera because the wild life was on constant parade== sloths, howler monkeys, squirrel monkeys, white face monkeys, iguanas, macaw, parrots == just SPLENDID. Happy kids means very happy parents. We loved the proximity to shopping, restaurants and activities but honestly the house was almost too nice to leave. A little corner of paradise for sure. We can't wait to go back =hopefully with friends! p.s. We were glad to have rented a car. P.S.S. Wouldn't do this house with very young kids.

The best ever! We have stayed in a lot of vacation homes over the years -- some more expensive, some less expensive, but none as nice as Casa Samba. We were so comfortable! beautifully appointed, close to restaurants and the beach, and totally surrounded by wildlife -- from the decks and balconies we saw monkeys -- Howlers, squirrel and Capuchins (one troop of about a dozen monkeys visited every day), agoutis, black iguana (one we named "big blue" due its iridescent colors), basilisks, macaws, toucans, etc. -- we even had a resident sloth. We actually saw far more wildlife from our porch than we did in over 10+ miles of hikes through national parks, etc. But what really made it special: the hosts. Roxie is absolutely delightful and attended to our needs with cheerfulness and enthusiasm, our chefs Carlos and Estaphan cooked up some great food and David checked on us daily and assisted with recommendations, transportation, COVID testing and everything else needed to assure an absolutely great experience. A five star experience. The only complaint -- Manual Antonio/Quepos is no longer a hidden treasure -- it has been found! Lonely places and empty beaches can still be found it just takes a little more effort. Nevertheless we will soon be returning to Costa Rica -- it remains an awesome experience.
