Awesome house, and incredible staff! Wai was a great help and we felt very welcomed and at home instantly. Fully stocked kitchen so we were able to easily cook meals. Location was solid as we could walk to markets, shops or restaurants; a taxi to these areas run roughly 10 USD. Very centralized for activities such as beach, zip lining or exploring parks. Very highly recommended!!
The house is very comfortable and clean. The surroundings are beautiful and serene. Communication with host and property manager was very good. And they set up great excursions and transportation for us.
Casa Calma was perfection for our family. The pool was the perfect size for our two young children, we saw monkeys from the balcony every day, and the house had everything we needed. On top of that, Wai went above and beyond to make sure we had an easy, memorable stay. Don’t think twice: book Casa Calma!
Perfect for large family groups, with options for indoor and outdoor lounging and eating. It is best to have a 4 wheel drive and early excursions and plan to get back before dark because it is definitely up at the top of the road. We really enjoyed the sounds and sights of the jungle, including a howler monkey serenade.
We spent a week at Casa Calma on a sibling trip. It was amazing!!! The house was perfect for our three couples. It is so pretty and private. Wai, the concierge, was so helpful arranging our outings and just checking to make sure everything was good at the house. The housekeeper was almost wonderful. We went home with clean clothes! Highly recommend Casa Calma and would definitely stay there again!!!
From initial reservation to pre-trip activity planning, to check-in and throughout our entire stay, Casa Calma was an outstanding experience all around. We opted for the private chef for all of our dinners and this turned out to be a great move. The chef offered an expansive and fresh menu—and the flexibility to change plans when we caught a mahi mahi. The house is very clean, secure and a great place to watch wildlife in the jungle. Concierge service is a huge value. Will definitely come back!
We loved our stay. Having the pool was great. We enjoyed getting up early every morning and sitting in the outdoor living area, listening to the monkeys and birds. What are you doing on the left side had a pretty strong smell to it I am glad that we didn’t have to use that bedroom because I don’t think I could’ve slept in it. Other than that everything else was wonderful.
This home is lovely and just how described. Beautiful and comfortable furnishings and kitchen very well stocked. We spent a lot of time on the outside veranda especially in the mornings while having coffee and watching the birds and butterflies. Bedrooms are very comfortable and air conditioner units were great. We also loved the pool area and would spend our afternoons enjoying it. Home is tucked back into the jungle; we had a car so was no problem coming and going. I would highly recommend this house!
Wai was an amazing host from the time we checked in until the day we departed. He even came early in the morning the day we left to make sure our stay was what we thought it would be. Home is in a great neighborhood. We had monkeys come through everyday mornings and afternoons. Home was awesome as well. Very comfortable close to both Quespos and Manuel Antonio. We would definitely stay here again.

Property and host was excellent. Highly recommend getting a private chef for a night or two. Sitting on he porch there is so much wildlife that comes through the area to watch. Property is close to a few homes but very secluded and tricky to get to if you're driving yourself. Short drive to restaurants, beaches, activities, but I would recommend taking a taxi out and back. All tours did pick-up right outside our door.
Loved the house and how cozy it is! Amenities were great, host and event planner/house help were super accommodating and it was just what we wanted for our stay!
Beautiful house! Wai met us at the house when we arrived. Showed us around and answered all questions. The cleaner was amazing, she did all of our laundry before we left to come home. Great location, close to everything. And we saw monkeys every morning. Would definitely stay again!!
We enjoyed our stay at Casa Calma, a beautiful home located on the edge of the Manuel Antonio Park. The house is furnished well and has a great, brand new kitchen. We saw all kinds of tropical birds, deer and other native animals around the house. The management was very accommodating and made checking in and out very easy. I highly recommend you book this property for a relaxing and refreshing vacation in paradise.
The host was very welcoming and easy to communicate with. This was my family's first visit to Costa Rica. He actually sent me an email with places to eat and activities in the area. The house stay also included a concierge named Wai. Wai was incredible. He immediately sent me an email introducing himself as soon as we booked the reservation. We sent us an email with activities we wanted to experience while in CR. He made the recommendations and scheduled all our events. The house also included a housekeeper named Odette. She was very nice and cleaned our laundry and the house daily. I can't thank them enough for their hospitality. I would recommend this house to everyone.
This location is just wonderful- particularly if you’re interested in wildlife. Tons of monkeys, toucans, butterflies. The property is very well payed out with three bedrooms/bathrooms plus another half bath. Wai was exceptional from the moment we booked and throughout the trip. Odette cleaned the property daily - and did our laundry. Completely enjoyed our stay and highly recommend.
We so enjoyed our stay at Casa Calma! It was spacious, extremely clean, and in a wonderful location. I could have sat on patio all day!
Only thing I would add is that I would only recommend staying here if you have own transportation. I would not have felt safe walking down to main road. A few men between house and village stores made us quite uneasy.
The layout is fantastic, and the property is well maintained. Highly recommend!
My family ( all adult, 2 couples and a single) stayed very comfortably in this well maintained home, the photos are great representation of the home. While we didn’t see much wildlife ( a few birds) we could hear the howler monkeys in the morning which was super cool. The home felt secure and pretty private from neighbors. Wai the concierge was extremely responsive, he helped us with tours and activities. Quepos was a nice town, good beaches. House is very close to Manual Antonio Park. Wai suggested a private chef that cooked the fish we caught, he was excellent. The pool area is small but nice. It was a great place and I would recommend it. We had absolutely no issues, super smooth stay. The road getting there is a little intimidating at first but after you do it once it was fine.
We loved our stay at Casa Calma! The house is in a great location, a short drive to both Quepos and Manuel Antonio. It was clean and comfortable - the beds were so comfy! We loved the downstairs living area that gave our kids their own space. The best part of the house is definitely the outdoor living room. Perfect for enjoying coffee in the morning, a drink in the evening, or a family board game. To sit there and watch the monkeys in the trees was amazing - and we saw many! The pool was big enough for cooling off and for the kids to splash around. Our only complaint is that the pool deck was a bit crowded. It’s not huge to begin with, and it has too many large potted plants. It made it difficult to easily and safely get around the pool. We would definitely recommend this house, and would stay again!
