Great place and wonderful service

We had a group of 10 stay at Villa Grande in late April, early May. Low season in the area, but the weather was grand, and the Villa lived up to its reputation. Alex, property manager, went out of his way to coordinate fishing trips with locals (we kept the fish and had a great dinner prepared by local chef) ATV rides into the jungle and zip lines. The villa is huge, and 4 of the 5 bedrooms are spectacular. The 5th bedroom is located next to the pool/aundry, and is not as big or as luxurious as the other 4. The pool is the best, the swim up bar and lots of lounge chairs provide a great place to relax. Driving is challenging, so we used taxis or shuttles, and had no problem. The beaches at Manuel Antonio are great, clean, and you can rent beach chairls, umbrellas, etc for a reasonable fee, and have a comfortable day on the beach. Manuel Antonio National Park is a beauty as well, wish we had spent more time in the National Park, hiking and exploring....next time.
All in all, Villa Grand was Grand, with the concierge Alex, providing a high level of service. Lots of monkeys, iguanas and a great relaxing atmosphere for our group.
The only suggestion would be to get the stereo at the pool functioning so that guests can enjoy some music while at the pool area.
