I have stayed here before and will stay here again. Owner Anita has lived in the area for thirty some years and knows everything there is to know about what's to do, where to go, how to best enjoy Manuel Antonio. And the view from Casa Buena Vista is one of the best you could hope for! For comfortable accommodations... more

I have been to this B & B twice, the first time in 2007 with my husband, where we had the Teak House all to ourselves, and the next year brought a group of 10 people for a quiet Yoga/Reiki healthy retreat. The group loved the layout of the B & B, good views of Manual Antonio, jungle and beach,... more

We thought we lucked out finding an inexpensive hotel with a great view. I suppose the other reviewer was right when he said "you get what you pay for." The second night into our stay, the toilet overflowed, leaving an inch of standing water on our floor of the bedroom, soaking all of our possessions. This happened at 3am and... more

What Casa Buena Vista lacks in flair it definitely makes up for with the spectacular view of Manual Antonio National Park and a great breakfast! The rooms are dated but they are clean and the surrounding gardens are beautiful. Anita (the owner) is a kind lady and this is a great budget option. Be prepared for a good 15 -20... more

The breakfast was very good... more

We have just returned from a two month tour of Central America and our one week stay in this guest house was the highlight of our tour. Anita and her helpers Walter and Elena were exemplary hosts and nothing was too much trouble. We were even invited to Anita's Christmas party. The en-suite room overlooked the forest canopy were we... more

This B&B operates more as a small hotel rather than a B&B, only without the small hotel charm. While the $50/night room was adequate it lacked several little things that easily could have made it more comfortable, such as hook upon which to hang wet towels. Having stayed at B&B’s in several different countries I have become used to the... more

We had a reservation for the "cottage" at the end of March '07, and were very dismayed upon arriving to find that a hotel was under construction almost directly next to our room. We were told that the work, which was quite loud and persistent, would be going on from 8 am to 5 pm. In addition, we found the... more
