What our guests have to say

"I wanted to thank the entire Escape Villa's staff for providing me a wonderful vacation in Manual Antonio at the Dolce Vita villa. From the moment we arrived till the minute we left, the staff provided excellent service which made for a relaxing vacation….. And the villa was simply beautiful and breath taking! Manuel Antonio is definitely a special place in my mind.... more beautiful and jungle-like than I ever expected. This was the first vacation I have ever had where I returned feeling truly rested. I thank the entire staff for making my vacation a wonderful experience for me.

A special thank you to Shay for coordinating all of the arrangements with me and my group over the past several months. A special thank you to our excellent host. He was there whenever we needed him and his initial tour was really helpful to acclimate me to the town. A special thank you to Lester who stepped in when we needed him. Lester took care of the pool and got us whatever was needed. And to Alida (maid) and Gustavo (guard) and Tinkerbell (his cute dog) - a very special thank you. The hard work that they both put in to making sure we had a safe and clean/tidy stay was very much appreciated.

Since my return to the states I think about Manuel Antonio many times throughout the day. I do miss it! I especially miss seeing the monkeys and the view of the Pacific Ocean each day... but I have many photos that will bring back good memories for many years to come. I've been sharing my photos to friends and family and tell the stories of how wonderfully special Manual Antonio is and what a great job/service Escape Villas provides in a beautiful villa. Everyone is impressed. So don't be surprised if my family and friends begin to call you to book a vacation of their own. I too would love to come back someday.

Lastly, I must say that the Costa Rican people are the most thankful people I have ever encountered in my life (not to mention extremely hard working and best serving). I meet people all the time as I am in the public relations business and it was so nice to see the level of gratitude that the Costa Rican people possess - even for just the little things. And quite honestly, that is how life should be. What my visit to your beautiful country taught me (other than how to relax) is not to take anything (even the smallest thing) for granted. Because sometimes its the real small things that can make for a persons day, week or year. So again, many thanks to everyone.

"First, what a fabulous home! The Casa Dolce Vita is perfect! I did not see, nor could I imagine a nicer spot to stay! Second, the Costa Rican people are so nice and so helpful! Third the jungle is such an amazing place-so incredibly alive and active! I can only add that the monkeys stole our hearts-they seemed to know how much we loved them and responded by allowing us to be very close to them-they fed out of our hands! We leave with our hearts full of the spirit of Costa Rica and we hope to return one day!"

"I’m sitting here looking out at the ocean as a beautiful cool breeze flows around me. Dolce Vita is as close to utopia as I've been. The view from the living room area and from the top bedroom is superb. Sounds of the waves in the ocean put us to sleep and awaken us in the morning (as well as the monkeys). There are 8 of us staying here, and it is plenty roomy. We are all very comfortable here. Tomorrow we leave. I will never forget this tranquil, refreshing experience."
