El Escondite
The English translation for "El Escondite" is "the hideaway" and there are no truer words that describe this modern retreat tucked away in the rainforest. This private villa with 180 degree views of the ocean and jungle is set in the center of Tulemar, perfectly situated for easy access to the beach, resort amenities, such as the restaurant and the front gate to the main street of Manual Antonio. El Escondite was designed to provide a relaxed, modern coastal feel with layers of amenities, much like the owner's homes in California.
As you enter El Escondite you'll hear and see the waterfall coming from above, instantly providing an awaited feeling of Zen. As you reach the top of the first level, the relaxing infinity pool and spa set against the rich green background of the surrounding jungle will give you no choice but to quickly get settled and come back for a float. This centralized point on the property provides the iconic Costa Rican experience of swimming while taking in breathtaking views of the ocean, serene landscape and wildlife, including monkeys, sloths, and magnificent color-rich macaws. Just steps away, this level is also home to the first primary suite. The modern simplistic design does not sacrifice opulence with an open air bathtub located on the large balcony. The second level offers two guest bedrooms, each with two queen beds and their own bathrooms. The second primary suite is also on the second floor with a king size bed and daybed that can accommodate a child. This suite brings the outdoor experience inside by providing stunning views of the sunset over the ocean and an open air shower that offers privacy while being surrounded by jungle. All bedrooms have either ocean or jungle views and air conditioning.
Floating high in the clouds, the top floor is truly the showpiece of this villa with stunning views from the deeply green pigmented mountains to the deep blue ocean. The expansive sliding glass doors allow this area to be open air, feeling like you are living in a giant treehouse or comfortably enclosed indoors. With a stunning, amenity filled modern kitchen, outdoor BBQ area, and large dining table this will surely be the gathering location of the property for guests to enjoy meals, lounge, and boast upon picturesque sunrises and sunsets that will forever be ingrained in your mind as you think back upon your Costa Rican vacation.
Guests will receive personalized concierge services before and throughout their stay and have access to all the resort amenities including the beach, resort pools, and on-site shuttle service. This property is walking distance to many restaurants, grocery stores, shops, and ATMs in Manuel Antonio.
