Reviews of Jungle Creek

The location was exceptional. Saw wildlife right from the room. Bathroom was great and liked the kitchen. Pool and pool area was great.

Attendand did not meet us upon arrival as stated in contract, Wifi ID and passwords were wrong, so had no wifi, Fan is worn out and makes tumping sound - could not sleep with fan on. Took over 20 rings before the site manager would answer the phone. There was no laundry even though the contract claimed there was.

The 3 bedroom villa was perfect for our family of 6. Very comfortable, great location and the owners were very attentive to everything we needed.

Nothing, this place is a health concern. The common area has such large gaps between the bars your child could fall through and die. This place had mold and feces in our room. I emailed booking and the property owner and have been ignored. We had to find another room and pay for it and then haven’t been reimbursed for the change.

Everything, it’s a disaster. The staff didn’t speak English, they took us to the wrong room, made us leave 8 hours later and then a few dash of arguing with the owner he told me to get the fuck out, his exact words and he was calling the cops. I have message proof of all this. Would sure be nice if I could get some help. This host was racist, disgusting, and shouldn’t be allowed to list properties. I sure hope booking does something after I spent thousands on my vacation.

This property was amazing. Clean. White towels and sheets impeccable. We had everything we needed and Heidy was wonderful! Thank you for the lovely gift basket too!

The house is up a quiet road which is nice. It was great for my family with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It has a beautiful courtyard with a pool and is well kept. We saw some wonderful birds and wildlife from the back patio which was neat for people who aren't used to seeing things like toucans in the wild. It is relatively close to a bus stop that will take you down to Manuel Antonio or up to Quepos for about 75 cents. The only problem with the walk to the bus stop is that for a short period you are walking along a very busy road with no sidewalk. Additionally, Uber is relatively inexpensive to take from the house to various places within the community.

There is no food really within walking distance of the house. However, we found it easy enough to hop on the bus, get off by a restaurant, eat, and then take the bus back home. I also like to have a bit more information before I arrive. I would have found it useful to have a better sense of where we should be checking in because we kind of just went to the address we had and hoped we were in the right place. Additionally, I arranged for shuttle transportation back to the airport through Jungle Creek but the lack of specifics that I was provided with were hard for me. I wanted a confirmed pickup time weeks in advance and was only given one the day before when I asked again.

Great location, surrounded by jungle. The villa has plenty of space.

The rooms and sheets smelled strongly of mildew, like they hadn't been fully dried in the dryer.

Great staff and location. Room was comfortable with everything we needed. The setting is quiet yet just a short walk to the main road so bus was easily accessible.

The place was big

Wish it was closer to the beach

It’s a great place to stay with everything inside You can cook almost everything

The property grounds are very pretty. Laundry with a dryer was definitely a plus for us! The location is easy to get uber or taxi in to town.

The villa itself is dated. The beds are not very comfortable and the sitting area is very small with comfortable seating for 2. There is an air unit in each bedroom and fans in other areas. The villa kept a stale smell especially in the bathroom. Not ideal if you have any issue with lifting heavy luggage up and down many stairs. We didn’t have an issue with that but can see that it could be a problem for some.

Beautiful location, clean and comfortable facilities. Wonderful place to stay for a family.

Very comfortable and spacious. Plenty of room for a family of 5! Kitchens was stocked well and we had fun preparing our food. The welcome treat bag was delicious! Shower was big and fun :)

Loved the property's eclectic layout and setting (neighborhood of homes set in the jungle. Great location close to everthing. ) Nice small community pool / sitting area. Heidi the manager was helpful and attentive,

Sunday evening after out arrival was a great experience enjoying the sounds of the surrounding jungle at night. Come Monday there was construction occurring on the property directly next-door (property was connected to Jungle Creek as workers came to and thro from Jungle Creek to the home) the work involved metal cutting, hammering and drilling. On Tuesday evening I had had enough, finally had to say something at 10:15 PM to get them to stop. Really a downer on our experience there. Would have made different arrangements if I had been told before arriving (and again Jungle Creek was connected to the work being done). No biggie but was expecting a welcome arrival basket with coffee /snacks per other reviews but nothing, had to ask for coffee in the morning. Booked for five adults but only towels, cups/ kitchenware for four.

The property was amerced in nature. We saw some beautiful birds, butterflies and our neighbours saw a Sloth in a tree. They communicated very well with us and provided us with a yoga mat and extra towels when needed. The place is very clean but a tiny bit dated. Lovely gift basket was a nice touch.

Unfortunately it rained constantly during our 4 night stay. It rained so hard that it was leaking at several locations on the porch so our feet were always wet. The sound of the constant rain on the tin roof got to us after a few days. This was no fault of the property.

We loved our stay at Jungle Creek. Heidy met us to give us the keys and show us around, and gave us loads of helpful information. We also really appreciated the welcome basket. The accommodation was spacious - two double beds, kitchen, living room, huge bathroom and outdoor seating. We swam in the pool a couple of times which was wonderfully refreshing after a day in the heat. It really felt like we were in the middle of the jungle. There's no breakfast but the kitchen is well equipped to make your own. We weren't that organised though so took a lovely short walk to a nearby hotel with a restaurant in the mornings to get breakfast. The location is a little out of town, and we didn't have a car, so used buses and taxis to get to the centre of Manuel Antonio, but that wasn't a problem. Heidy gave us the number of a taxi driver so we were easily able to get to where we needed to be.

We loved our stay at Jungle Creek and would happily return. The only thing that would have been useful is instructions for the coffee maker as we struggled to make it work!

We had the villa with the three bedrooms and this was spacious, clean and well stocked with all amenities. Loved the pool( that was private and clean) and the sit out area. Saw and heard lots of birds and even saw a green iguana in the trees. Close to restaurants( could walk to some but we mainly drove). Heidy , manager, was very responsive in all communication and the tours that we arranged were excellent. Loved the sound of rain drumming on the roof!

Nothing really! Given our villa was right next to the pool, at times , we did have to lower our blinds for privacy. I would have like a bit more light in the living room ( maybe brighter lights?). Also, for those who have not previously travelled to tropical countries, good to know that ants may show up to feast on sweet foods/ crumbs left around!

The location was great. Very close to the bus stop, but tucked away on a side street. The pool was nice and the upstairs patio too. The cleaning staff was very friendly and helpful. The welcome basket was very much appreciated. We were able to do laundry. The place is a short ride to lots of local destinations and you can walk 20 mins to the small beach past Ronny’s place (but it’s hilly so wear shoes). You can access the jungle path to El Salto waterfall which was a great adventure. The mono lodge was big enough for 4 people. All of the tour operators picked us up and dropped us off no problem.

One of the pool chairs was broken. The main road can be intimidating on foot because there is traffic and no shoulder or sidewalk.

The welcome basket was a very nice touch after a long drive to the property. Heidi was amazing! Her response time was lightning quick and she assisted us with excursions. Unit was clean and plenty of space for a family of 6.

Nothing comes to mind.

Comfortable beds, plenty of equipment in the kitchen and good air conditioning made for a very comfortable stay. It was close enough to MA park to make it easy but far enough from the crowds to be relaxing. Also 30 min to Rainmaker park which has canopy bridges and beautiful waterfalls to clamber into.

We had a great stay at Jungle a creek and would happily stay there again. We’ll definitely be recommending this villa to our friends. The location was perfect between MA and Q, and the park. Although small, the pool was perfect for the kids. The grounds were beautiful and the staff was amazing. We (1 adult, 3 kids) rented a two bedroom with lots of private outdoor space. The bathroom and kitchen were huge and clean.

This place was close to everything in Manuel Antonio. Heidy checked us in and had great recommendations nearby. The pool was also nice to have. We were able to see Howler Monkeys while we were swimming.
