If you are looking for an authentic, awesome jungle experience, check out La Patita de Manzanillo! Bathe in the beauty of nature in the open design kitchen/dining area with its native hardwood tables and benches. Sway in the hammocks while you nap or read a book. Enjoy meals in the fully-equipped kitchen (or we will have wonderful cooks come and prepare meals for any part of your stay) and sleep well in comfortable, posturepedic beds. Practice yoga on our specially designed Yoga platform. Sip coffee on the deck as you watch the light change in the morning, and relax deeply in the peacefulness and quiet of night. The house is yours, but you will share your jungle space with howler monkeys, sloths, and toucans, and swim in the crystal clear water of the nearly deserted beach.

The best way to experience paradise

S & F Santa Cruz, CA, USA
Review Submitted: July 11, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We visited Costa Rica for a week and were enchanted. Manzanilla itself is simply gorgeous, with lush vegetation, a layed back non rushed life style, wonderful happy people, beautiful almost empty beaches, and great food.

La Pattita was the perfect base of operations for our visit. The house itself is set in the jungle, under the canopy of the forest. Most of the common spaces are open and outside, in the environment we had come to experience. The workmanship of the house is splendid, and we loved to return home to relax in such a lovely space.
Owner's Response: Thanks, Steve and Flow!

We are glad you had such a nice stay and enjoyed the jungle and open environment of the living/dining areas like we do!!

Our stay at La Patita was awesome. We loved the location, the wildlife, and the house was clean and functional and the craftsmanship, beautiful! It rained most of the time, but we biked in it, hiked in it and did what we needed to do to have a smile on our face the entire time. We had one afternoon of sun where we hiked to Punta Uva to swim. We spent a lot of time in the kitchen and on the deck watching wildlife. We enjoy bird watching and we saw many cool birds! We also had a baby sloth in the front tree. Of course the monkeys woke us up every morning, along with the birds and frogs but we absolutely loved waking up with the wildlife. We spent some time on the yoga platform-both practicing and viewing, sitting, listening to the rain. We cooked most of our meals. The caretakers were helpful and William took us to Punta Mona on horseback-an adventure we'll never forget. We hated to leave. I would recommend it to anyone seeking a similar retreat!

oh! how Relaxing it was!!

Review Submitted: February 10, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
It was really really really nice and relaxing. There was no stress at La Patita! Everything was just fine and relaxed. I was there with my parents, my sister, her husband and their kids. There was enough place for the 7 of us.

We enjoyed a lot the open air kitchen and dining area. I just loved waking up in the morning and sip a coffee on the bench, watching nature and waiting for hummingbird or blue morpho to pass by! The toucans would make their tour during morning too and of course, sloth and howler monkeys. All nature around, no need to run to see it!

The place is clean and well maintained. The caretakers are just great. William took us for horseback riding in the jungle one day and explained us the trees and pointed us the surrounding wildlife on the way. Dania is really doing nice work and it was nice talking to her.

To me, the place is romantic and should be great for a couple searching for a peaceful retreat. As I said, it's perfect for family too.

The way to Manzanillo is short by feet and we used to walk to the beach afternoon with the kids. The long walks on the beach really worth it. It’s almost deserted at some point during week days! Beautiful! The beaches are alternated with beige and black sand and nature, at that time of the year, is luxurious until the water edge.

There are some small but surprising activities around Manzanillo and it worth taking time to discover some and to get used to the life beat of the place. Not expecting too much of anything made me enjoy everything I did and appreciate all the great and huge effort native (and adopted native) do to make their place welcoming and interesting. People in the shops and restaurant around are nice and really open to discussions and they do smile quit easily. I had a surprise every single day during my trip to Manzanillo de Talamanca and my time passed in La Patita was only positive.

Thanks for all Sita! I wish only best ;-)

We just returned from an entirely too short 4 days at La Patita and had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful, very clean, and blends so nicely with its surroundings. In short, it met our needs perfectly. There's is lots of wildlife at La Patita or nearby. The howler monkies are up early every day...one morning we spotted around a dozen of them feeding in the trees immediately around the house. The caretakeers, William and Dania, live nearby and are very attentive and just wonderful people.

As others have commented, Manzanillo is a perfect destination for those wanting to really drop off the radar screen. It has beautiful beaches, a few great restaurants, and is truly unspoiled. With the bumpy roads, it takes a bit of effort to get there, but it is certainly worth it. We're already planning our return visit!

First let's talk about Costa Rica. The people are amazing and go out of your way to welcome you. This is one of the few countries where I don't feel resentment toward America. Many people speak enough English to converse although I prefer to show respect by attempting Spanish.

The Caribbean coast and the Pacific Coast are virtually two different countries. Going to the Caribbean is like stepping back in time and slowing down the pace to something more sane. If you want a five star hotel vacation this side of the country is not for you. But if you love a natural environment, don't mind bumpy gravel roads and appreciate a laid back lifestyle then come on down and chill.

La Patita is like going to the end of the Earth. You'll go through Puerto Viejo on your way but we hardly went there except to get groceries. I thought I had died and gone to heaven when I walked through the gates at La Patita. Everything is open air except the bedrooms and I love this. The hardwood finishes are beautiful and the kitchen is adequately stocked. We rode the bikes to Manzanillo a couple of times and there is a washing machine on premise. It is a short amazing walk through the jungle to the beach. The surf was calm when we were there but apparently sometimes it can be rough. OK, the best part of this is the monkies. We laid in the hammocks and watched them play for hours every day. The small town of Manzanillo was just right for us. Maxie's has good local cheap food, lots of beer and Wilbur the server was too much fun. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to step out of the rat race for a few days, a week, a month or who knows, maybe you'll just stay!
