It was perfect.

My husband and I stayed at Casa Gema de Bali in Buena Vista Villas and Casas to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. This house is absolutely fantastic. The moment we walked through the door and saw the incredible panoramic view, we knew we were in paradise. The house is decorated beautifully and is so spacious. Buena Vista in Tulemar gardens is awesome. A private beach, 3 pools, a restaurant and bar...what more could you ask for? The grounds are absolutely gorgeous. There is an abundance of wildlife you can see just in Tulemar Gardens..monkeys, sloths, birds, lizards. We loved sitting on the balcony for hours and watching the birds. The owner, Tracy Hensley, was so helpful with scheduling activities, a hot stone massage and a chef to cook us a fantastic four course meal at the house on our anniversary. She even called a few times to check on us and see if we needed anything. Fantastic, personalized service. We will definitely go back to Casa Gema de Bali...absolute heaven!!

A group of friends spend a fun week at Casa Gema de Bali. Between the exclusive beach, the pools and the walkable bars and restaurants, we all had one of the best vacations ever. We loved Casa Gema de Bali! It was clean, new, and very beautiful, both with its designer furnishings and its unbelievable ocean and jungle views. We hope to be able to come back because we are not sure we can beat this vacation.

My spouse and our two teen-aged kids just returned from a ten day stay in Casa Gema de Bali. I want to tell everyone what a great place this is! The unbelievable view to the ocean begins literally as soon as you open the door. The casa is perched on a hill and it seems like you are on top of the world. The house itself is literally gorgeous, and very well maintained and very clean. Tulemar Gardens is, from talking to expats and locals, considered the loveliest place to stay in all of Manuel Antonio and we could see why. The beach is great fun. We boogie boarded one day for three hours without realizing it (got a little sunburned, but it was well worth it!). We were all so sad to leave this piece of heaven!

I went to Casa Gema de Bali in May, and I had an amazing time! The casa is spectacular, the grounds of the resort are gorgeous, the beach is relaxing and fun...the views are truly unbelievable! If you go, make sure to watch the sunsets--you'll rarely have such a luxurious perch from which to enjoy the sea and sky. (Oh, and you have to have a frozen pina colada, freshly made by one of the attentive bartenders, while you're swimming in one of the perfectly secluded pools that dot the property!)

We spent a wonderful week in this absolutely gorgeous casa. The house was even nicer than we anticipated. The view was unbelievable. We highly recommend it to anyone wanting to experience the best in Manuel Antonio. You will not want to leave!
