Jungle Roost, a beautifully appointed 4 story jungle house close to the beach

Imagine being 4 levels up, nestled in Costa Rica’s spectacular, pristine canopy. Welcome to Jungle Roost!

Enjoy your morning coffee on the wraparound deck, watching monkeys foraging and making their way across the treetops.

This 2,500 ft2 home has 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms and is fully and comfortably furnished. It has floor-to-ceiling windows with unobstructed views designed to bring the outside into the open and welcoming interior. This unique home's architectural design includes numerous sliding glass doors that open to allow breezes through the house. There are ceiling fans and AC throughout the house.

The ground level has ample parking, and a laundry room equipped with a washer and dryer.

The main level includes a spacious great room, fully-equipped kitchen with breakfast bar/island, deck surrounding the living area, and bathroom. Also, you can admire the wide outdoor space and jungle garden as a little piece of paradise from over 2,000 ft2 pool deck. The deck is partially covered by a large gazebo, organized with a dining table, and sun lounges. Enjoy your outdoor jungle life while using the outdoor grill kitchen, serviced with an extra half-bathroom and a hidden shower. Indulge yourself in the gorgeous 10-meter swimming pool featured with a lovely waterfall.

Walk up one level to the expansive master bedroom with two queen-sized beds, sliding doors to the wraparound deck, and massive windows for unobstructed views of the canopy wildlife. This level also has a full bathroom.

Walk up to another level to the fourth floor where there are two beautifully decorated bedrooms with king-size beds and a full bathroom. Both bedrooms have floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors on two walls providing access to the wraparound deck where there is a large outdoor chesterfield for quiet reading or siestas. Don’t be surprised if a monkey (or 10!) sneaks past. Stay still, and they will amble by looking to jump from the balcony to the nearest tree. You will be tempted to feed them, but please refrain – there is plenty of healthy food in the jungle.

The nearby beach is gorgeous and quiet (half a mile - 10/15 minutes walking distance). If you are in the mood for more people, funky bars, good restaurants, surf schools, groceries parasailing and fun shopping, just stroll 15 or 20 minutes along the white sand to Manuel Antonio.

We follow the COVID-19 heath and safety protocols, and we have two different COVID testing facilities within 10 minutes of the house. By booking in advance, it will also be possible to organize the test privately within the house's comfort.

Jungle Roost is a magical place! If you want to see wildlife, it is right outside your door. Manuel Antonio and the beach are within walking distance if you are reasonably fit. The house and pool are sparkling clean. But most of all, it comes with an amazing host who makes certain that your every need is met! Thank you Ismael for an amazing experience!

A perfect getaway
We truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. The hosts were extraordinarily helpful and thought of everything we might need to enjoy our stay. They made great suggestions and helped us with bookings. The property was in the center of everything and yet felt isolated. The pool, deck, and garden were just a lovely escape and we really enjoyed seeing all the wildlife.

Our family of 4 enjoyed Jungle Roost immensely. It had everything we needed and the owners checked in regularly. They helped with booking activities and restaurant reservations. All of the animals we wanted to see came right to the yard. We were all very happy with our stay.

Wonderful Location
Loved the house and it's amenities - pool and AC. It has comfortable beds, which is a plus. Beautiful location. The town was really cool with plenty of places to shop and eat. We loved the beaches and there is a lot to explore locally and within a short drive. We traveled with our kids and my in-laws. The house was perfect for us all.

A piece of Heaven
This was a remarkable house, location and especially the Host. Surrounded by birds, monkeys, and lush gardens, you wake up to a gorgeous dip in the pool after a sound comfortable sleep. Ismael is exceptional at making g life easy and comfortable. So many things to do within short distance. I have been to many houses on VRBO. But nothing as exceptional as this.

Jungle Roost
My husband and I have recently returned from an unforgettable week at 5* Jungle Roost. The host, Ismael, met us when we arrived, showing us everything we might need to know to fully enjoy the beautiful house and all of the amenities. Incredible home, as their website displays. Monkeys delighted us daily with a show several times a day. Pool was great! We were provided with a list of the best restaurants, activities in the area. The hosts live 5 minutes from the Roost and are thoroughly familiar with the area. This is a "can't miss" opportunity! We'll be back!

Most amazing place!
This was definitely the perfect place for our family of 4, with 2 kids ages 10 and 5. The house and pool are so fun with everything you need. But best of all is staying in the jungle- with troops of monkeys, sloths, toucans and agoutis. Close to the beach and restaurants. Ismael was a super helpful amazing host and helped us book activities. Great experience!

Jungle paradise
This is truly a special spot. From the communication and planning with Ismael before and during our stay, to mornings and afternoons watching the monkeys travel past, this was the vacation of our dreams. We loved our time at the pool, and especially loved the wildlife: agouti, monkeys, sloths, macaws…it was incredible how much we saw right from the house.

Everything about the stay was impeccable. The house is great with an amazing pool/deck area in a beautiful setting. Monkeys even came by to pay us a visit in the surrounding trees. Ismael was the perfect host. Greeted us on site, helped us with any questions we had about the area and was a pleasure to communicate with throughout our stay. We HIGHLY recommend the Jungle Roost

Great house and great host
The house is just as pictured and a very beautiful jungle surrounding. We loved getting to see the monkeys every day as well as beautiful birds and iguanas that visit. The pool and swing made it fun for the kids. The host met us at the property to show us around. He was in communication with us from the time we booked the house and offered helped with reservations for excursions and made great recommendations to us. Overall a great stay for our family, no complaints!

Amazing spot
The location is fantastic and the house is beautiful. You’re surrounded by wildlife and not too far from restaurants or the beach. I think, however, the best part of the stay was the hosts. Francesca and Ismael were incredibly helpful and accommodating, going so far as to help plan and arrange most of the activities on the trip. I hope we get a chance to visit again.

Paradise!
This property is like your own personal resort except you have amazing privacy. Such detail and care taken with the design of the home and landscaping to be the perfect jungle paradise. It is like staying in a treehouse but with comfort! We were up early each morning to see all the animals. We walked to the beach and restaurants most days but also used Ismael’s suggested drivers to cart us back and forth when needed. Ismael is really what makes this property stand out from any other we have been to. It was our first trip to Costa Rica and he made everything easy! He helped with everything from transport, best restaurants, excursions and local tips. This was the perfect vacation!

Paradise!
Words cannot describe the delight we found in both the host and the home! The home was so clean and comfortable, and we saw so much wildlife as we relaxed on the pool deck each day. The host warmly welcomed us and provided so many wonderful recommendations and helpful information. My only regret is having to share this and not guard it as my secret place to escape anytime I want in the future!

The perfect family vacation home
All the reviews are accurate! This is a heavenly retreat. We stayed here as a portion of our 2 week family CR trip. The property is luxurious and manicured. Location is excellent for walking to the beach. There is a great surf school to the right when you exit the beach trail and you can avoid heading to the main beach all together. The house is lovely with attention to all details (microfiber cloths for makeup removal). The monkeys will surround you twice a day and the pool is so refreshing and nicely shaded in the afternoons. We will for sure be coming back! Also, the hosts are exquisite people who really want your stay to be exceptional. They understand hospitality and prioritize your safety and well-being. Don’t miss cafe milagro’s breakfast smoothies and French toast.

We loved the access to the beach. We relaxed in the pool everyday. We were in awe of the surroundings and wildlife- monkeys, sloth, and other creatures. The property mgr, Ismael, was extremely helpful and available to assist. He offered great tips and insight to the area. He even secured a private dance lesson and yoga at our request. We definitely recommend a 4 wheel drive. Our family vacation here was a huge success! 😊
