We loved our stay at this Airbnb in Alajuela, Costa Rica. From the first moment we felt very welcome. The place is comfortable, clean, and has everything you need for a pleasant stay. The location is perfect, close to the airport but in a quiet area, ideal for resting. In addition, the host was incredibly kind and attentive, always available to help us with any questions or recommendations. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to other travelers.

We have stayed with Gil many times over the past four years, and it’s always our favorite place! The home is private, has a beautiful view, and is conveniently close to shopping and restaurants. On this visit, we really noticed and appreciated all the recent improvements: A new water system with stable, strong pressure TV with 1000+ channels in the living room Surround sound in both the bedroom and living room New patio furniture A comfortable sofa in the master bedroom A new mirror in the master bathroom A professional-grade juice maker Fresh paint and repairs throughout Gil’s care and attention to the property really show. We always look forward to returning!

amazing place with beautiful views including toucans in the mornings and monkeys right down the street! very spacious and i honestly felt right at home. the host helped me by getting a birthday cake for one of my guests and helped us get home when the road was closed. they were a saving grace and made our stay worth it. thank you guys for everything!

Great space, wonderful views and the grounds were beautiful with all the flowers. Really enjoyed the hot tub and the beds were nice and cozy. Stopped there as a half way point to the Caribbean coast. Was a tad difficult finding, but it was in the dark and once we got to Aquarius and looked at the pictures we got there no problem. Host was responsive. Thank you for sharing your wonderful house.

Thank you for your attention. The place was perfect for my family, we had a great time.

Moonshine Inn was great! It was comfortable and quiet, and the pool was nice! It was convenient to all of the attractions in Manuel Antonio. Nothing was more than a few minutes’ drive away. Martin and Lorena were excellent hosts. They provided lots of great local information, helped book tours, and even arranged to deliver an item my daughter left. We had a great trip. Don’t miss the guided nature walk. It was phenomenal, and we saw so many animals! Enjoy!

We didn’t get to enjoy all of the great amenities of this place as we arrived in the evening and had early flights in the morning. I wish we had more time as your home was so welcoming and the outside space very inviting.

Nice loft in peaceful neighborhood and with an amazing view. Had all amenities we needed. Would definitely recommend.

Great spot and great host. Well located and away from the cround.

If you're looking for an immersive experience in nature without straying too far from comfort, this is the place to be. Although it is only a few meters from the road and next to a supermarket, once inside the property you feel surrounded by vegetation, with views of plants and trees, as shown in the photos. It is important to note that there are no conventional windows, but rather mosquito nets or screens, allowing a more direct connection with the environment. The experience of disconnecting is very pleasant and the fan in the room was a great help, as the heat and humidity can be intense. A nice touch is that different types of birds visit the Airbnb in the mornings, making the stay even more special. In addition, the accommodation has parking, which is a plus. Overall, an excellent choice for those seeking authentic contact with nature without sacrificing comfort

Would rent here again without hesitation! The location is great. We loved being close to town and things to do but still having all the jungle vibes! We saw lots of monkeys right in the back yard! Alex and Glen were both very friendly. We also did the mangrove Kayak tour with Alex & Goldie (his pup)! Would highly recommend that tour! Overall we really enjoyed our stay here!

A wonderful place with a lot of peace

Book. This. Place. It was an absolutely AMAZING experience for your family. We spent almost a week here with our 6,4, & 2 year old and it was pure magic. Also, don’t think twice about it - get the meals, they were sensational. The property was immaculate, we started every morning with a hike and swim to the waterfall. The kiddos got to work on the farm, and the WiFi was us to check in on a few things worked great. The instructions to get to the farm was great. Yes, it’s a trek into the mountains but it’s well worth the trip. Couldn’t not recommend this place enough. We can’t wait to be back. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality.

We were happy staying in Alegria Tropical. Uvita was too busy for our taste, too much traffic, etc. but we enjoyed using A.T. as a home base for day trips. The pool was a lifesaver and it was serviced every 3 or 4 days during our 11 days there. The kitchen was a little awkward and small but the two master suites w/bathrooms and A/C was great. We hung out around the pool whenever we were there and it worked well for us. Massimilano was very responsive and helpful. Internet was good except for a one day outage. All in all, a very good rental experience.

nice place, they were flexible. i recommend it.

Despite the rains, the family had a wonderful time at the home. On the last day the rains finally cleared and the view was absolutely stunning. A 4x4 is an absolute must!

Peter and Rosa’s home is a little slice of paradise. I wanted a jungle house, and this one delivered. We saw many beautiful birds and iguanas, and our children adored the pool. The small neighborhood was safe and secure, and the torn of Dominical was colorful and friendly. Amazing experience.

We loved Gretel’s place - it was a beautiful spot and we felt right at home. It has a fantastic kitchen, a spacious living area, nice bedrooms and a great porch. The pool was really refreshing and was a nice escape from the afternoon heat. We also got to see some amazing wildlife close up - we were visited by some squirrel monkeys, a howler monkey, a toucan and a pair of Scarlett Macaws. It is in close proximity to Manuel Antonio National Park and a bunch of other excursions and near many great local restaurants. I highly recommend.

The house is beautiful, super spacious and has everything you need to have a great time with friends. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking. We went with my 6-year-old daughter and the pool was perfect for her, it's not very slingshot. It's pet friendly (paying a fee) and there's plenty of outdoor space for puppies. The beach is very close. Near the house there is a small shopping center where there is a supermarket and you can find everything. There are also restaurants in case you don't want to cook.

We absolutely loved staying here. Everything was magical and sitting outside was relaxing. We saw so many animals while staying there and the kids loved the pool! We had a grocery store and Soda walking distance away. Antonio was a gem. He did not speak English but he made sure everything was pristine. He is a true gem and willing to help direct parking and open the gate for us Some tips to help others….everything here is similar to the states. No suicide showers and lots of power plugs. Really the only issue we had is the upper bedrooms were too light and it gets bright early. Wasn’t a huge problem for us because we got up early to do activities while it was cool. We loved our stay! This place has ALL of the Pura Vida vibes.

Very close to the beach with great shaded areas to sit. Amazing sunrises and sunsets! Low tide was awesome, lots of exploring, and enjoying the tide pools. High tide there are great waves for surfing! Very quiet during the week, busier on the weekend. We had the pleasure of a local band practicing on the beach!! Area is safe for walking, there are a few of great places to eat, and a small supermarket within walking distance. Yes there are local dogs that wander, and sometimes they bark, certainly didn’t encounter any aggressive ones. The house is clean, pool is clean, bed is comfortable and air conditioners work well. If you like to cook some meals while on vacation, bring what you need(oil, salt, pepper, spices) Could use a few more utensils for cooking(spatula, tongs..) a couple tea towels. Overall a great location, with a very nice property manager on site. This is our second visit, we would likely return to stay again. Thanks Lorenzo for the hospitality!!

The house is large and all rooms are spacious. The gated community is very secure and feels safe. The Bejuco beach area also is quiet and safe. One of the nicest beaches we have we have enjoyed! And only a 400 meter walk from the house. The backyard pool is the perfect way to cool down after some time on the beach.
