"We stayed on short notice with Tracy and team being great to work with. Very nice upgrades have been made and the outdoor sitting, lounging and grilling areas are outstanding additions since we stayed prior. Saw plenty of wildlife including two kinds of monkeys. Would definitely stay again in the future!"

"Great location to relax and spend time as a family."

"This house. Wow. It’s a beautiful house, but on top of that we saw SO many animals - monkeys galore (capuchin and howler), toucans, macaws, and many other beautiful birds. Fair warning though: With the rainforest literally in your backyard, you will hear lots of animals sounds. Howler monkeys scared us to death the first night until we realized what it was. It made the stay there all the more memorable! The owner and manager were both wonderful. Communication was great. We also loved the...

"Everything went very smoothly with the process. We were able to text the concierge when we were on an hour away and she met us at the house to show us around. The house was spacious, clean and had all the supplies we needed including washer/dryer and soap. Good jungle views. We saw macaws at a distance but no monkeys. Pool was perfect The driveway is so steep but my husband is an excellent driver and made it up with our 12 passenger 2nd rental van. I personally would not have had the guts to...

"This house was amazing for our Costa Rica trip! Groups of monkeys passed through the treetops everyday, so nonstop entertainment for a family from the US. The house was also spacious with air conditioned bedrooms. Its location in Manuel Antonio was perfect. You can walk to the restaurants, shops, grocery store and beach. Walking is a bit difficult with the tiny roads and hills, but doable. I would recommend renting a 4 wheel drive so you can drive to Espadilla Beach, which was much easier...

"Nice home with a large upper deck patio in a jungle setting. Pool is nice and Wai the property manager was very helpful and set up several day trips."

"Everything was as described. It was clean and had everything we needed. The beach was close and the view was spectacular."

"Spent three nights in Manuel Antonio with our three boys (all under 9). Spacious home with amazing views of both mountains and the Pacific. Neighboring Macaws were fun to watch over morning coffee. Close to everything you need. Host was great with communication and with recommending and organizing excursions, as well!"

"My wife and I love this area of Costa Rica and planned to return to enjoy a week of surfing, waterfalls, beaches and all the Costa Rica has to offer. We found Ballena Royale in our search and could not have been happier with the villa, the location or the service. We were contacted by the property manager a week before check in and arranged to meet the day of our arrival to show us the villa. He was in communication with us during the day and it made it easy to find and get checked in. The...

"The view, comfort, location were perfect. As in any rental, there are issues but they were all resolved. Remember what you are coming for…..weather and relaxation…..perfect. "

"It was great. The pictures are a little deceiving. But we had an amazing stay."

"The House and Property were perfect for our family and friends, the house and the grounds were clean, comfortable and well maintained. Paul and Alejandro did an exceptional job of communicating and answering any questions we had quickly and accurately. We highly recommend this beautiful property for anyone staying in Dominical. It is beautiful house!"
