What a spectacular house and hospitality! Itza and her family outdid themselves during our stay in Manuel Antonio. For my wife and I, this was our first trip out of the country (USA) and we were nervous to experience a different culture. From the moment we arrived at Itza's house, she made us feel apart of her family. She was prepared to share her ideas where to eat, play and relax. She was able to give us this information because she had taken the time to find and experience for herself, the safest excursions and best eating establishments in and around Quepos and Manuel Antonio. This allowed all of us to enjoy the best the area had to offer without missing a single moment of fun.
Now, Itza's hospitality didn't stop there, her house was one of the most amazing places I have ever stayed. Placed in a beautiful setting amongst the jungle and away from the downtown scene, the house boasts many animals from colorful caterpillars, to howler monkeys and sloths. The bedrooms were amazing, we played rock, paper, scissors to determine which rooms we would stay in each night. Windows everywhere showed off the jungle and it's beauty, but the best place to relax and enjoy the scenery was the pool. We spent most nights down by the pool, as monkeys came down to visit us and view what we were doing.
To end, Itza and her family has created an environment that is safe and fun for all ages. The culture you will experience while staying at Itza's will amaze and be apart of your life for years to come. I want to personally thank Itza for making this vacation, the best I have ever experienced!!! See you all in the near future:)
