Most of the neighbors are full time residence and are very friendly. We ask that your restrict your noise to inside the house after 11 PM. More animals of the jungle will approach your home if the noise level is normal..(?) Brooks Hacienda is a 10 minute drive to the main beach of Manuel Antonio, and The National Park.
