Jungle Creek is located a short drive from the entrance to Manuel Antonio (where you will have to pay to park, just make sure not to park too early). The house we rented was big and clean, and it had air conditioning. The appliances may not be stainless steel, but for the price we paid it was amazing to have... More

My sister and I stayed at Jungle Creek the last week of March, and we loved our time there. We felt safe because Paula and Clark were so caring and went above and beyond to make sure that we had a good time. We stayed in Mono Vista, which was perfect, private, and clean. Paula helped us with all our... More

Prior to our arrival they were very professional and answered numerous questions via email. Our various outings, including restaurants, were all handled by them. We were also very impressed with the tour companies they set... More

On our first night we were even greeted by a gang of squirrel monkeys and took great up-close adn personal photos of them. We had more luck seeing them on the property than at the MA... More

Since the beginning, Paula and Clark were incredibly helpful answering our questions in literally no time. The place in Manuel Antonio is amazing, very cozy and the house was incredibly clean. They provide towels, bathing soaps, has a full kitchen, an amazing swimming pool, and a great outdoor area with a BBQ. I really don't get when a past reviewer... More

We very much enjoyed our stay at Jungle Creek. We had stayed here 2 years ago when Jackie was managing, and we are happy to say Paula and Clark are doing a great job as the new owners and managers of the property.
