Voted Most Romantic Villa with Private Infinity Pool Ocean View

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (162)
"The Most Romantic Villa is a beautiful property located on the main road leading to Manuel Antonio. Everything we wanted/needed was within a 10 minute drive and, other than my initial fear driving up the steep driveway to the property, everything was perfect. The ACs worked great, the pool was relaxing, and the views were amazing. There was even a huge iguana that slid down the power lines one morning to munch on foliage by the pool! Can't wait to return!"

"We just left paradise! Casa Seabreeze was home to our two families for the week and we were blown away. The drive is no joke- a 4wd vehicle is a must, and it adds to the adventure! We would have been happy just laying in the infinity pool watching the monkeys swing in every day. Short drive to Dominical beach, and we also had a chef cook fish tacos one night that were amazing.

Sea Breeze II Luxury 6 BR Oceanview Estate between Dominical and Manuel Antonio

9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (36)
"Amazing property! It is a bit of a drive from San Jose, but well worth it. We saw every animal we were hoping to see right from the patio ( except a sloth ). The house itself was amazing and had everything you would want to feel at home. Wil was quick to respond to every question and request that we had, and everyone on his staff were amazing. Be prepared there are bugs, you’re in the rainforest, but they were some of the coolest things to see. This was a hard place to leave. Thank you Suzanne...
