This is the amusing moment a family on holidays in Costa Rica received the unexpected visit of two hungry monkeys to their hotel's apartment.

The footage, captured on March 20, shows a monkey sneaking into the family's property to grab two packs of snacks on a table.

‘’Hi buddy, are you going to take the chips, really?’’ a man can be heard saying in the background amid the uncontrollable laughter of his daughter.

The cheeky ape then stands on the balcony to eats some crackers before jumping back to a tree nearby.

A second monkey eventually arrives at the scene and grabs the pack of snacks his mate left.

‘’We don’t have any more, your friend took them all,'' says the man.

Later on, one of the monkeys can be seen eating more snacks whilst the other roams around.

Our family was enjoying quiet time on the balcony at a resort in Costa Rica when a pack of monkeys jumped onto the balcony and stole our snacks and proceeded to eat them right in front of us.
