...Dazzling late-afternoon sunsets and tantalizing tropical breezes greet you as you stroll the beaches of Costa Rica's Pacific Coast.

...A splash of color catches your eye as an unnamed species of bird or butterfly wings its way through the rainforest.

These are only a few of the many wonders that have captured the imaginations of visitors from around the world as they are quietly seduced by the natural splendor of a visit to Makanda By the Sea.

Located just off the main road between Quepos and Manuel Antonio National Park, Makanda By the Sea's unique contemporary design blends elegant architecture with its striking green backdrop in one of Costa Rica's richest natural settings.

From the infinity pool, follow the passage of monkeys, sloths, pizotes and other jungle life as they wind their way through the surrounding rainforest.

The contemporary design allows our guests the option of enjoying anyone of the private villas or studios, or of combining the units through aseries of Japanese gardens, patios and walkways to accommodate the needs of larger groups.

Villa 1 is one thousand square feet with a large Japanese Garden and impressive open air design. The Villa is furnished with a king size bed, a large sofa, a dining area and fully equipped kitchen. The hammock will keep you comfortable while enjoying the spectacular view.

Makanda By the Sea's open-air design was specially crafted to enhance the cooling effects of refreshing Pacific breezes.

Spectacular hardwoods, vaulted ceilings and hand-crafted tiles are just a few of the added overtones of elegance that distinguishes Makanda By the Sea as no ordinary vacation getaway.

Studio 2 and 4 feature a fully equipped kitchenette, king size bed, large sofa, dining area, private balcony and a small Japanese Garden.
