Wow! Just wow! My first time in Costa Rica and I couldn't imagine a more beautiful setting.
Nestled in a beautiful part of Manuel Antonio, not to far from the "downtown" Quepos, it really is a true destination for those wanting a true relaxing Costa Rica vacation.
The rooms were spacious, clean, and cozy. It felt like being home away from home. Kitchens stocked with all of your cooking necessities, and a really nice welcome basket.
The bathrooms are awesome! Bidets in every bathroom! That alone is enough to warrant a stay lol Towels were nice quality and there was plenty to go around. Also has shampoo/conditioner and body wash in the shower for you in case you forget or don't bring enough. The waterfall shower heads were a very nice touch.
The bedroom are welcoming and the mattress very comfortable. They have really cozy sheets on the beds, and they don't come off when sleeping. The views from our individual bedroom are something I won't soon forget.
The common area in our 2br villa, had really comfy loungers with a tv although we really didn't use it much. Just outside our door was a huge balcony with a table and chairs as well as a sitting area with an outside 3 seater and chairs as well. Perfect way to have your morning coffee.
Wait the coffee!!!! OMG it's really, really good. Like I may have brought some home good lol and yes there's a coffee maker in the room.
I know this is a long review, but seriously could go on and on about this property. From the pool and gazebo areas, to the views and spider monkeys, to the exceptional staff.
The staff helped us book our excursions and saved us a ton of money! We went whale watching on a boat, they served us drinks, made a fresh lunch, and great music. Truly incredible.
We also went to the world famous Manuel Antonio national park for a tour and it was absolutely breath taking.
Ok ok I won't bore you anymore. If you're considering Costa Rica, you should absolutely book at Jungle Creek. We're already planning our 2024 trip and I truly didn't want to leave.
Thank you for a wonderful experience at a more than reasonable rate. I'm actually surprised how affordable it is for everything they offer.
✌🏻 out Costa Rica & Jungle Creek see you...
Read moreWe had an incredibly disappointing experience at this property and strongly urge others to avoid it. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a strong, unmistakable smell of mold and mildew throughout the villa. The smell was so bad that even our 5-year-old daughter commented on it. The property manager dismissed our concerns, insisting it was "normal humidity," even though it was clear that they were trying to air out the place with fans and open doors and windows.||We were eventually moved to a different villa, but this only led to more problems. The new villa wasn't ready for us—unmade beds, dirty rooms, filthy toilets, and damp, musty sheets with visible mold spots (yes, actual mold!). I had to find the laundry room myself and do the sheets, which is absurd for a vacation rental where you're paying for comfort and cleanliness. Additionally, the laundry room was also filled with a musky odor and the sheets themselves were covered in mildew.||As if that wasn't enough, the owner later admitted that the property had been flooded under 6 feet of water just weeks before our stay! No wonder the place smelled terrible and was in such poor condition. On top of that, the owner told us that we waited so long for our accommodation to be cleaned because it’s difficult to get local workers to show up—a weak excuse for such poor service and complete neglect. To add insult to injury, when we finally gave up and left after the first night, the owners would not accept our request for a refund. ||The property is in serious need of upkeep and the staff's dismissive, unprofessional attitude only made things worse. This was a far cry from the relaxing vacation we hoped for. I can't stress enough—don't waste your money or precious vacation time...
