Family-friendly holiday rentals in El Jardín

My friend and I really appreciated Ana Maria's hospitality and her family's gorgeous home. We loved the special personal touches including the jungle of house plants and well-stocked library with board games and books. Having the fireplace stocked with wood made it possible to have the perfect ambiance for reading in front of the fire on a misty afternoon! We found it helpful to have earplugs at night, as the home is close to a transit road, and earplugs did the trick to help us sleep soundly.

The house is very nice, very spacious. My friends and I really enjoyed our stay.

The property was beautiful and the views are incredible. Really enjoyed doing some yoga on the deck!

Great place to stay loved the hot tub and the view

Really beautiful place to stay and so easy to get to. Martin and Lorena were both really great. Would love to come back and stay here again. Kids both loved the pool.

Everything excellent!! Thank you so much Laura I would definitely go back

The whole accommodation was great, we had enough space, could relax by the pool, cook and enjoy the time. We were able to easily spend two more nights there on request. Would recommend this to anyone.

extremely pleasant, the owners are super friendly and helpful.

It is a beautiful place surrounded by nature. Very nice and clean. Close to restaurants and stores.

From the booking to check out it was very easy and clear communication between us. The house had everything we needed and it was very spacious and comfortable for the amount of guests. It was very clean and we didn’t have any kind of issues. Would definitely recommend!

Very good value for money, the only thing I have to say that the wifi was wrong, everything else was excellent. I highly recommend it!

Maricel’s place was exactly as described. A great place to land flying into San Jose; Uber from the airport very inexpensive. Communication very easy and Maricel is very responsive and helpful. We did forget to leave one set of keys and Maricel has been very kind and understanding to let us drop them off when we fly out.

Absolutely loved this place! We had a friend trip of 4 and this was perfect. Super secluded. It felt like a mico-White Lotus without the deaths. Charlie, the property manager, was super helpful and very responsive. I would 100% recommend this place. A gem!

This is my third time staying here and it is a very safe and welcoming place, especially for me as I travel alone. Natalia and I were very happy to have been here and I will definitely return.

Thank you very much, Andrea, for your hospitality over the weekend. We really enjoyed the place and its surroundings!

Paradise found is an apt name. What a beautiful home in a beautiful place. I stayed for 4 nights with my wife and 3 teenage boys. The home was clean and well stocked with all the items we needed to make meals in the kitchen. Jose, the caretaker, met us at check in and showed us the lay of the land. We had access to the garage that had surf boards and body boards. The pool was clean and warm, and we had fun jumping in and splashing around. The beach across the street is a close to private as you can get. It goes on for miles each direction. The only people we saw were the occasional local fishing or some folks taking a stroll on horseback. Waves were huge and fun to play in. Watch out for rip tides! The directions to the home were great. The house is located between Jaco and Manuel Antonio. Both fun spots to explore. Thank you Mary and Jose for making our family trip unforgettable. We cant wait to return.

Great place, simple, effective and family friendly.

You won't want to leave the spacious villa. The garden is full of plants and is frequently visited by wildlife. Katrin is super helpful. She surprised us with a fresh soursop when we couldn't find any in the store.

We had an unforgettable stay at Gretel's place. We saw 3 types of monkeys, macaws, tucans and squirrels and iguanas, all while hanging out at the pool or on the terrace. Communication was great, Gretel checked in several times to see if everything was good. The house offers everything you could need - we cooked at the property several times and were able to use a fully stocked kitchen. Our kids especially enjoyed the pool which is very toddler friendly. The location can't be beat - you're close to both Quepos and Manuel Antonio with endless activities, restaurants etc. We really felt like we were immersed in nature and could not have wished for a better place to spend our vacation in Costa Rica.

Everything was perfect! The location and the house all met our expectations. Danny & the team were always kind and approachable. When we found that wasps were building a nest at the house, the team was there within an hour and the issue was resolved immediately. The pool was clean and in the best condition. We had the best vacation and would be happy to come back!

Great place to stay!!! As a first time international solo traveler, I felt extremely safe and comfortable. I arrived at almost midnight, and Mel (on site concierge) was waiting to ensure I made it. I saw an agouti, monkeys, and a coati all on property. I even spent time with Mellow (the cat 😻). Host was extremely responsive and helpful throughout my entire experience. Shops and food within walking distance and parking for your car. Would highly recommend and hopefully will be returning in the future!! Pura Vida!! ☀️

Our stay in Manuel Antonio was nothing short of magical. Though the space was compact, it was beautifully designed and felt like a hidden gem nestled in nature. The panoramic view was absolutely stunning—easily one of the best we’ve seen. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, the hygiene standards were top-notch, and the overall vibe was serene and refreshing. An unforgettable stay at an unbeatable price!

a good stay, we hope to return, recommended

we had a fantastic time at eco room 3. The white faced monkeys and squirrel monkeys are all over the property and we're a huge bonus to watch though the white faced ones were mischievous / not fearful of getting close to humans and will try and get in through a window or an open door and we had one come inside so stealthily to steal a banana off the kitchen counter when I turned my back! Keep the door closed and maybe the windows. The property was super clean and convenient to the bus which you can ride to the nearby national park. Don't miss the waterfall on the property (we did). We had a great time! Unforgettable stay! ☆☆☆☆☆ ♡
