—TWO POOLS, OCEAN VIEWS & SPACE FOR EVERYONE
Welcome to Casa Vista Azul, an extraordinary seven-bedroom luxury villa rising through the rainforest canopy of Manuel Antonio.
Spanning approximately 6,000 square feet across five levels, the villa combines panoramic Pacific Ocean views, two private swimming pools, multiple indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, a separate pool house, and the convenience of a private elevator.
Designed for larger families, groups of friends, and multigenerational vacations, Casa Vista Azul offers something particularly valuable when traveling together: room to gather and room to separate.
Spend the morning watching monkeys move through the surrounding trees, relax beside either pool, gather for dinner overlooking the rainforest, or retreat to the fully air-conditioned glass-walled lounge.
—TWO PRIVATE POOLS — TWO DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES
One of Casa Vista Azul's greatest advantages is having two distinct private pool areas.
The main pool is surrounded by lush tropical vegetation and features a waterfall and generous areas for swimming, relaxing, and gathering.
The newer wing introduces a second experience: a quieter ocean-view pool directly outside the villa's air-conditioned glass-walled lounge.
For larger groups, having two pools creates tremendous flexibility. Everyone can gather together, or different generations and families can enjoy their own space throughout the day.
—OPEN-AIR LIVING + A NEW AIR-CONDITIONED LOUNGE
Casa Vista Azul offers the best of two styles of tropical living.
The original open-air great room is elevated within the rainforest canopy, allowing Pacific breezes to move naturally through the space while handcrafted bamboo, natural stone, woodwork, and tropical architectural details connect the villa with its surroundings.
For guests who prefer air-conditioned comfort, the newer glass-walled second living room provides a completely different environment.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame rainforest and ocean views, while a vaulted ceiling, comfortable seating, large-screen television, wet bar, and direct access to the second pool create another major gathering area.
This combination is particularly valuable for larger and multigenerational groups.
—SEVEN BEDROOMS WITH PRIVACY BUILT IN
Casa Vista Azul accommodates up to 18 guests across seven air-conditioned bedrooms distributed throughout the main residence and separate pool house.
The primary suite occupies its own level with a king bed, private sitting area, luxurious stone bathroom, and wraparound balcony overlooking the jungle and ocean.
Additional bedrooms are positioned throughout the residence, while the separate two-story pool house creates even greater privacy for family members, couples, or guests who appreciate having their own space.
Rather than concentrating everyone in one area, the villa's multi-level design creates natural separation while keeping the group connected through its pools, terraces, and shared living spaces.
—PRIVATE ELEVATOR
A distinctive feature of Casa Vista Azul is its private elevator, providing convenient access between multiple levels of this expansive hillside residence.
This can be especially valuable for multigenerational groups moving between bedroom levels, living spaces, and pool areas.
Casa Vista Azul remains a five-level hillside property with stairs throughout the residence, so guests for whom elevator access is essential should confirm availability with the host before booking.
—WILDLIFE AT YOUR DOORSTEP
Casa Vista Azul doesn't simply overlook the rainforest—it lives within it.
Monkeys frequently move through the surrounding trees, while guests regularly report seeing capuchins, howler monkeys, squirrel monkeys, toucans, scarlet macaws, sloths, hummingbirds, butterflies, and other tropical wildlife directly from the property.
Some of the most memorable moments happen without planning anything at all: morning coffee while monkeys move through the canopy, colorful birds flying past the terrace, or simply listening to the rainforest come alive around you.
—CLOSE TO BEACHES & MANUEL ANTONIO
Despite its immersive rainforest setting, Casa Vista Azul keeps guests close to Manuel Antonio's beaches, restaurants, shops, National Park, and activities.
Spend the day exploring Manuel Antonio National Park, relaxing on Playa Espadilla, sailing the Pacific coastline, sportfishing, zip-lining, rafting, visiting waterfalls, or discovering the area's restaurants.
Then return to your private villa, choose your pool, and settle back into the rainforest.
—ESCAPE VILLAS CONCIERGE & GUEST SERVICES
Your Escape Villas concierge and guest services team, backed by 27 years of Costa Rica villa hospitality experience, can help personalize your vacation before and throughout your stay.

—DESIGNED FOR LARGE GROUPS
What makes Casa Vista Azul especially compelling is the flexibility it gives a larger group:
Two pools. Seven bedrooms. Two major living areas. A separate pool house. Open-air and air-conditioned spaces. Private terraces. Ocean views. Rainforest.
Some guests can relax beside one pool while others gather around the second. Part of the family can enjoy the air-conditioned lounge while others embrace the open-air great room.
Then everyone can come together when it matters.
Casa Vista Azul isn't simply a large villa.
It's a villa designed to let a large group vacation comfortably together.
