ABOUT THE FOUNDERS 

We created Casa Playitas with a simple yet profound vision: to share the place that changed our lives. Nestled within the lush rainforest canopy of Manuel Antonio, our villa is a sanctuary where the natural world is not merely a backdrop — it is your constant companion. Playful monkeys greet you at dawn, sloths drift silently through ancient trees, and the Pacific Ocean stretches before you in an endless horizon of blue and gold.

We designed every detail of this home to honor its surroundings, including panoramic terraces for watching sunsets that stop you mid-sentence, open living spaces that invite the warm tropical breeze, and a sense of seclusion that makes the outside world feel wonderfully far away. Whether you spend your days exploring the rainforest on a Manuel Antonio Park guided tour, kayaking along the coast, or simply reading by the infinity pool, the rhythm of life here is entirely your own.

This land has given us so much, and we believe deeply in giving back. Through the Full Circle C.R. Foundation, which we proudly founded, we invest in education and opportunity for the children and families of our community. Sustainability is not a policy at Casa Playitas — it is a promise. Every eco-conscious choice we make is rooted in our commitment to preserving this paradise for those who come after us.

Time and again, our guests tell us that Casa Playitas was more than a vacation — it was a turning point, a place where lasting memories were made and a deeper connection to nature was discovered. That is exactly what we hoped for when we built this home. Casa Playitas is our dream realized, and nothing brings us greater joy than welcoming you into it.
