Many people say that Manuel Antonio is the quintessential Costa Rican destination. You have the ocean and surfing, the wildlife and exploration, as well as the Tico hospitality. We love our country, but we do think there’s something extra special about Manuel Antonio.
There is so much to do and see that it’s impossible to do it all in one week. The incredible natural beauty at Manuel Antonio National Park is just minutes away, and dozens of beaches are within driving distance for the quintessential Costa Rican experience. Then, you also have exotic waterfalls, pineapple and banana plantations, cinnamon farms, and so many incredible adventure activities in the canopy or the sea.
Beyond that, we encourage you to check out our activities and suggestions for more great things to do in our Manuel Antonio Travel Guide post.
Wildlife is one of the best things about Punto de Vista. During your stay, you could spot squirrel (titi) monkeys, white-faced monkeys, howler (congo) monkeys, toucans, parrots, scarlet macaws, two- and three-toed sloths, coatimundis, and kinkajous (honey bears), to name a few!

While Costa Rica’s official language is Spanish, many “Ticos” (the loving slang term for Costa Ricans) understand and speak English quite well. They are known for their easy-to-understand accent. Even if they do not speak English that well, Ticos will always try to communicate warmly with the best Pura Vida attitude!
Plus, our team speaks English, so you’ll have a translator for anything you need and will be able to communicate seamlessly with your pre-arrival concierge and property staff.
