Spanish Courtyard Residence with Poolside Villa

This charming Spanish-style courtyard estate is a rare offering in the heart of Manuel Antonio, blending privacy, lush jungle surroundings, and exceptional walkability. The property features a 3-bedroom main residence centered around a vibrant tropical garden and resort-style pool, along with a separate 2-bedroom poolside villa—perfect for guests, extended family, or rental income.

The pool serves as the true heart of the property, creating a tranquil oasis where daily visits from monkeys, sloths, and tropical birds make it feel as though you’re living within a national park. Despite this immersive natural setting, the location is unmatched: El Mercadito Gastronomic Market is just 650 meters away, while the nearest supermarket and restaurant are only a 150-meter walk.

Set within a secluded, jungle-rich neighborhood with few nearby homes, the property offers a rare sense of privacy. Three gated parking spaces provide direct access to the pool and courtyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow throughout the estate.

The main residence offers approximately 275 m² of living space. The first level features an open-concept layout with kitchen, dining, and living areas, along with one bedroom and a full bathroom—ideal for guests or single-level living. The upper level is dedicated entirely to the primary suite, showcasing soaring wood-beamed ceilings, an ensuite bathroom with jacuzzi tub, and an expansive covered terrace furnished with hammocks and seating—an exceptional vantage point for wildlife viewing and jungle sunsets.

The third bedroom is detached from the main residence and accessed via a covered patio, offering its own outdoor seating area. This space is surrounded by ample room to create a private, fenced yard—perfect for pet owners or those seeking added separation from the pool and guest villa.
The large swimming pool provides welcome relief on warm tropical days and is complemented by a covered poolside patio with BBQ and sink area. This space is consistently praised by guests and renters as the standout feature of the property—ideal for entertaining, relaxing, and embracing the indoor-outdoor lifestyle Manuel Antonio is known for.

Overlooking the pool and gardens, the poolside villa offers approximately 136 m² of living space. It features high natural wood ceilings throughout and an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area. The villa includes two bedrooms, a spacious bathroom, and an attached laundry room, making it fully self-contained and highly functional.

Location is everything, and this property truly delivers. Tucked away on a quiet, no-exit road, it offers peace and privacy while remaining within walking distance of some of Manuel Antonio’s best restaurants, shops, and amenities. A hidden gem that combines nature, convenience, and versatility in one exceptional estate.
