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.

Perfect Family Vacation Home
We are so thankful for Ismael and Francesca allowing us to stay in their beautiful home! They were incredible hosts and gave us so many wonderful recommendations. We had the most amazing family vacation! Our favorite part about the house was all the wildlife we saw right in the backyard. The monkeys and agoutis visited us everyday. We were close to food, the beach and the national park.The house itself was clean and beautifully designed. It had everything we needed. It was perfect for our family!

Best Host / Great House
If you are looking for a rental in Manuel Antonio, this is THE place! Stop scrolling, this is it. The house is in great condition and the grounds are stunning. We saw all the wildlife we came to see in Costa Rica sitting in the backyard.. monkeys, toucans, and even capybara-looking animals. The host, Ismael, was absolutely incredible. We had a couple snags in our travel plans getting down there (airplane delays) and Ismael handled re-arranging our car rental and other things we had planned. I have never had better service at a VRBO. I would absolutely stay here again! And get a 4x4, all wheel drive rental-you’ll need it in this area.

Paradise
This property was nestled in the jungle. The decor, cleanliness and overall feel was that of being at home in a paradise. The hosts organized many outings and a personal chef for us and made sure our every want was taken care of by the best. The hosts and the Villa were beyond anything we could have imagined. If you want to get spoiled, I highly recommend you stay here.

The house and the location are exceptional. What made our stay particularly noteworthy was just how wonderful the host was. I’ve never felt so well supported and well informed at any rental property. Ismael went above and beyond expectations when he assisted with a challenging rental car situation and he was always available for his opinion about outings. He helped us book numerous excursions. My family is quite grateful to all the help he provided, and if our travels ever bring us back to Manuel Antonio. We will be sure to stay here again.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!
