Tropical Treehouse with Private Pool - 3BR/2.5B
TradeWinds Villa is a beautiful 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath, multi-level villa located in an amazing jungle setting with a partial ocean view. It is perched on a ridge overlooking the lush Pura Vida Valley and seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor spaces. The location of the villa is situated on the edge of a private nature reserve and wildlife corridor frequently visited by White Face Monkeys, playful Squirrel (Titi) Monkeys, Toucans, and Scarlet Macaws. It offers a secluded retreat amidst a small community of villas. The El Salto Waterfall is within walking distance from the villa. Manuel Antonio National Park, several secluded beaches, Pez Vela Marina, and world-class dining are all easily accessible by car, foot or bus. The spacious living room on the villa's main level offers an open floor plan with a vaulted teak ceiling and windows that fully open on either side to embrace ocean breezes. The private infinity swimming pool is located off the living room and nestled in the jungle maximizing your rainforest experience. The adjacent kitchen has granite countertops and is well supplied with small appliances (microwave, toaster, coffee maker, blender, etc.). A large gas BBQ is on the deck off the kitchen. Stackable washer and dryer are in a utility closet on the deck. Spacious decks wrap around most of the main residence and guest house offering ample sitting areas to enjoy the sounds and sights of wildlife in the jungle canopy.
The master suite features A/C, a king-size bed, en suite bathroom with a jacuzzi tub, walk-in closet and private terrace where you can enjoy beautiful ocean sunsets. The guest house, below the main residence, features two bedrooms each with A/C and a queen-size bed. A shared bathroom connects the two rooms. The house comfortably accommodates six guests. It has free WiFi that is strong and stable, air conditioning in each of the bedrooms, and housekeeping service. There is covered parking for 1-2 vehicles. Upon securing a reservation, you will be introduced to your Concierge who will be your point of contact for anything you may need, including transportation, rentals, chef services, tours, activities and more.
NOTE: Given the indoor-outdoor living space and high vaulted ceilings there is no A/C in the main living/dining area. Rather, quiet and efficient ceiling fans are used to optimize airflow. The house is at at the jungle canopy level and requires climbing four flights of covered stairs. Once at the canopy level, there are two buildings - lower (guest house with two bedrooms and bathroom) and upper (main residence with master suite).

Super cool layout; loved the master bedroom at the tree top level, listening to noises of the animals at night and watching the monkeys one morning! The three sided wrap around deck and indoor / outdoor living space is divine. The driveway was challenging -- we had a 4x4 so it was ok; I don't recommend anything less. The lower guest house was functional, however the occupants felt safer sleeping with the doors locked and AC on, so they weren't able to enjoy the sounds of nature. We did not take advantage of the concierge service, based on how we pre-planned our trip. If you are booking this place, I highly recommend you do so. That would have enhanced our trip, but this was our mistake!

Epic Perfection!!
This was a dream house for us! My kids lived in the pool. Cleaners came every 2 day. The macaws and monkeys come and visit. Wraparound porch was so peaceful. There are so many steps but totally worth the trip up every time. The driveway is scary at first but with our 4x4 it was no problem. We stayed in the June rainy season but the weather was amazing even when raining. You have to go visit

This house was perfect for my family. The wrap around porch is where we spent all of our time. The casita downstairs was a perfect space for my 17 & 20 yr old to have their own space. The house had everything we needed. House keeping came every other day. They were so sweet and helpful. The house is also in a great location.

Spacious home with guest casita
We enjoyed our stay so much!! This tropical treehouse has a beautiful master suite with balcony on the top level. The main level is a spacious kitchen and living room area that opens on three sides to the wrap around porch and jungle beyond. You're living in a treehouse. The porch has a pool, rocking chairs, hammock, grill, and dining table. There is a guest casita one level below with two bedrooms and a shared bathroom. Ideally located between Quepos and Manuel Antonio. There is a quaint restaurant near the bottom of the (steep) driveway that serves breakfast and dinner daily. distance.

Great treehouse stay
This property was perfect for our large family. The lower suite was great for our four teenagers. The location was ideal for exploring Manuel Antonio NP and Rainmaker Conservation Park (which we highly recommend). The wrap around deck was perfect for watching and listening to birds, including toucans and macaws. We didn't see any monkeys at the house, but there was construction nearby which may have impacted that. The kitchen was very well equipped. Check in and communication were excellent! Note, the driveway is very, very steep!

Good location and a beautiful home about 10 minutes by car to the beach. The property look exactly like the photos. I was extremely disappointed to find there is no air conditioning in the main living space in the house. After rereading the listing, it states the bedrooms are air conditioned, but it’s buried deep in the description.
The support staff (maids, pool cleaner, maintenance) were there frequently and unannounced. It made me feel like we didn’t have privacy.
Overall, the home was lovely, the hosts were quick to respond, and the efforts of the staff were well intentioned (but a little too invasive for my tastes). If you’re aware of these going in, don’t mind no AC in the kitchen/living/dining room and expect the maid service, you’ll have a pleasant stay.

House in the trees
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The place is nestled on top of a steep hill but we managed to come and go easily and stairs with older kids was no problem and quite nice to give them their own level below. The AC was nice to have in each bedroom. Could use one more stand fan in the family room. The pool was refreshing. The manager was very responsive and set up excursions for us making the stay so much more fun I recommend this place!

Trade Winds Villa
The house is a very lovely home.
We really appreciated the deck that wrapped around 3 sides of the house. Especially as we had some very fair people in our group.
The amount if wildlife we saw was awesome. Toucans, macaws, spider monkeys, capuchin monkeys, lizards, iguanas, and sloths. All from the wrap around deck.
Just 2 things I would recommend you keep in mind concerning this property.
One is the number of steps into the property. There are 51 steps up to the lower level of the house where 2 of the bedrooms are and then 17 more to the main level of the house. Then16 more to the master bedroom.
So everyone needs to be fairly mobile to use it.
Then the driveway is extremely steep. We got a taxi back one day from market and grocery shopping and the driver refused to take us up. His car couldn't make it.
Thank you for letting us enjoy your property.

A little slice of rainforest heaven!
This property is absolutely stunning, in both its architecture and surrounding views. The house itself is exactly as pictured in the listing. The expansive ceilings, huge sliding doors leading out to both the front porch and pool in the back, and well appointed kitchen all made for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The guest house was an amazing addition to the property and provided our two teenagers a fun place to stay. The pool was the perfect place to take a dip to cool down after a day of excursions. And we thoroughly enjoyed the wrap-around porch to enjoy the sights and sounds of the abundant wildlife. Frequent visitors included monkeys, iguanas, macaws, and toucans. Our one complaint is that, for some reason, the property scheduled painters to come to work on the external walkways and stairways, which scared away the wildlife on those days. That should have been scheduled when there were no guests there!
Although not a complaint, it is important to mention (as it is not clear in the listing) that the driveway to the house is incredibly steep. Our rented 4x4 SUV could get up it, but the issues came when larger vans picked us up for excursions and could not get up the driveway. So we had to walk down and back up again, which was quite arduous. Elderly, disabled, or simply out-of-shape people would have an incredibly hard (if not impossible) time with this.
Lastly, our concierge, Jorge, was an incredible support and asset for every aspect of our stay.
Highly recommend!!!
