This first-class resort home is situated on the highest hill in Manuel Antonio. Its 270° panoramic vista allows direct views from every room to the world-famous National Park, Pacific Ocean, and white sand beaches.
Sit back and relax on the balcony, drinking some genuine Costa Rican Coffee while monkeys play in the trees nearby. Native crafted mats and bamboo create a magnificent 15-foot ceiling supported by hardwood columns and hand-carved stone supports.
The six ceiling fans in this lofty, airy space create a gentle breeze day and night. The room is open on the sides and affords the spectacular views that make this house so unique.
Each bedroom at the Casa Dolce Vita is air-conditioned for your comfort and also comes with amazing views from the windows.
There are two master suites in this 3,900-square foot vacation house. Both have king-sized beds, large terraces, and baths with Jacuzzi tub and stone showers with multiple jets.
The other two bedrooms have queen beds and equally beautiful views. All of the bathrooms feature hand-carved stone or glazed earthenware bowl sinks.
Details include custom tiles and stonework, exotic woods, tropical landscaped gardens, and fountains. The art has been carefully chosen from around the world to create this unique blend of luxury with a tropical ambiance.
A large balcony surrounds the 25-foot private pool overlooking the ocean. Two tile chaise lounges are submerged in shallow water to enjoy while gazing at the condors soaring below you.
The sounds of the birds, the trickling fountain and the surf crashing on the beach will soothe you as you enjoy this beautiful home.
Designed by an award-winning decorator, this beautiful home is located in a gated community near the famous Mariposa and Si Como No hotels. It is just a 20-minute flight from San Jose.

This Villa was so unique and beautiful! We all enjoyed every second there.
Great Vacation at Casa Dolce Vita!
We had a fantastic time at Casa Dolce Vita! The view is amazing.

It’s a great open air living space. The monkeys came and went twice a day which was our highlight.
Gorgeous views
Great location of Manuel Antonio.. was able to do ziplining, visit Manuel Antonio park and all the beaches very easily.

The house is even better than the pictures and I would definitely recommend it.

Beautiful house
A huge thank you to the escape villas team for a wonderful weekend at Casa Dolce Vita.
Head straight to Casa Dolce Vita!
What a fantastic property! My family of 5 (3 adult kids) stayed here for just under a week.
Everything you can imagine
This property is majestic. If you think the pictures are amazing, wait till you see it in person.
Great views from every level
It was especially nice to have a nice view of the ocean from the pool.
House has great views
The house has gorgeous views and Valerie helped arrange the perfect schedule for us.
We had 8 guests at Casa Dolce Vita for a week in February. The house was exactly as described - with amazing views of the Pacific Ocean. Our host Ricky was accessible as needed and let us in the house as soon as we arrived to town. Valerie was amazing in the pre-planning process and helping to arrange all our excursions (everything was well executed). We greatly enjoyed the maid service + our chef Stephane, which added to our relaxation and overall vacation. We would love to return to Casa Dolce Vita. Manuel Antonio is a beautiful location.
Great Experience
The house was excellent. Very clean, very well decorated and had everything we needed.
Incredible property and people
First impressions are everything and the first time you walk into this house and property you are blown away by the open floor plan.
Beautiful Views
The house and surrounding area were beautiful! Mina came daily and kept the house in immaculate condition.
Delightful
Being in Casa Dolce Vita was like living in a tree house... high among the trees with as noted panoramic views of the ocean from each room.
Casa Dulce Vita was Perfect
Everything about Casa Dolce Vita -- from the front gate, all the way up to the 4th floor-- was picture perfect!
Amazing Getaway in Paradise
Our stay at Casa Dolce Vita was nothing short of amazing! The house is in a great location in Manuel Antonio.
What an incredible experience at Casa Dolce Vita!
Renting this home for our Costa Rica getaway was definitely the cherry on top of a fantastic trip! Believe it or not, the property is even more stunning in person. Every room has something special about it
I wanted to send a huge THANK YOU to the Escape Villas team who made our visit to Manuel Antonio simply unforgettable! Casa Dolce Vita was incredible and unlike any place we have stayed in before. The views, amenities, and service provided were top notch. We certainly hope to visit again!
Thank you again for your excellent hospitality!
Amazing vacation getaway
This house gave us an amazing vacation getaway in Manuel Antonio. We were transported away from city life and traffic to a nature show. We had an amazing view of the local coastline.
Casa Dolce Vita- Amazing!
This was a beautiful place. Nothing can beat the view! The monkeys come right up to the house. The kitchen and living space is open so be sure not to leave food out or the monkeys will come take it!
Wonderful Stay, Wonderful Time !
Wonderful stay at Casa Dolce Vita. Everything as described and pictured. This is a truly unique home with fantastic ocean (and monkey) views...
We couldnt imagine a better stay or better hosts
We stayed 2 weeks in Il Nido and absolutely loved everything about it. The "apartment" is clean and has everything one needs including hair drier and straightener on European voltage...
Amazing views and tucked away location
The house is outstanding and the pictures don't really do justice to the amazing views and tucked away location. Our children spent hours by the pool in-between the numerous nearby activities...
Living with the monkeys !
Celebrating family birthdays, Casa Dolce Vita was a perfect Villa for us. Not having a car, the location made the beach, restaurants, bars, and shops accessible...
Spectacular View
A group of ten of us stayed at Casa Dolce Vita in Manuel Antonio for our Spring Break vacation. We couldn't have been happier with our choice to stay here! First off...
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!"
