Had a wonderful experience at Toucan Villa. The location is great with respect to walking distance to town, and an easy cab ride to other local restaurants and activities. Everyone was very helpful with answering our questions and giving us advice on local attractions. Enjoyed a morning at the spa as well! The monkeys paid us a visit several times, and we had two iguanas who hung out around our pool. We would definitely recommend the place to others.

The property was gorgeous. We loved sitting on the balcony surrounded by the rain forest and occasionally seeing troops of monkeys playing in the trees. The house was clean and Manuel Antonio Estates were extremely generous with their help and advice. We hope to return.

Andres and Doris communicated right from the start. It was simple and easy! They answered any questions I had. The guard at the entrance made us feel very safe. The location was perfect- located just at the entrance to Manuel Antonio and the town of Quepos.

We absolutely loved the Toucan Villa. The location was very convenient to lots of things to do, while still being a peaceful and relaxing place to spend our time. The pool was just right and we thoroughly enjoyed mornings and evenings on the porch, watching the monkeys and listening to the sounds of the forest. And the Estates management was easy to communicate with and always kind and friendly. We'd definitely recommend this home!

The location, property, concierge service, everything was just incredible. I’ve been to Costa Rica a few times now and this is by far the very best location we’ve stayed at. I wish we had stayed longer - our family had a 2 year old in it and she had a blast too. Everything was amazing and above and beyond. We are absolutely going to be back with broader family. Cannot recommend this place enough. We forgot to leave comments in the guest book and fully intended to - our apologies we will be back and will do it next time!

The Villa Tucan in The Manuel Antonio Estates was beyond our wildest imagination. The house was so comfortable with so much space to stretch out and relax. All the rooms were beautifully decorated and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook in. The outdoor space is magical. Watching monkeys crossing the property leaping from branch to branch was so much fun. The pool was a wonderful cool off after touring all day in the heat and humidity. The town of Quepos is a short walk with many restaurants, bars and souvenir shops. Sarah, our concierge, was lovely and so helpful. Having a spa on site was an added bonus. We hope to return someday and enjoy the beautiful, friendly people of Costa RICO!! Pure Vida!!

Very clean and comfortable. Really fun to see the monkeys and animals walking around the house. The employees are very courteous and helpful.

We enjoyed our stay at the Tucan villa. Well situated in a peaceful location to rest after a day at the beach in Manuel Antonio or Dominical. Employees were nice. Fun to go swim at the waterfall on the property and easy to walk to Quepos city. The warf is worth a visit.

Great place, nearby everything you need to spend a great vacation time!

Jungle feel - close to all ammenities, shopping, restaurants, Manuel Antonion park.

We didn't feel we deserved such a luxurious place. More space than 5 people needed, visits from a giant land lizard, once we saw white faced monkeys in the trees above. The team was always at our service. The street it's on is the only street you need - for it takes you to all the restaurants, shopping and beaches you'll need to visit.

Dorit and Angie were great. They helped us with taxis and recommended great places to eat. They were very helpful. We saw lots of monkeys while in the pool. The cool water in the pool felt great after a day in the park and really good after spending a day at the beach. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was very needed. The fans in the rest of the rooms helped cool it down in the evening. This place has lots of greenery around it, so we were not not surprised to see some small lizards crawl through the windows. They stayed near the windows. We never had any in the sleeping areas or bathrooms. They were fun to watch while watching a movie on the television in the evening. Quick WiFi in the rooms. We did use the kitchen but just to cook our breakfast. This was a very enjoyable stay.

From arrival to when we left, the home was a tremendous getaway for our group! Even though we arrived later at night than anticipated, arrangements were easily made to accommodate entry (in the secured Manuel Antonio Estates). Everything in the house worked very well and was peacefully nestled on a hill...just as advertised. All three bedrooms were equipped with air conditioning to ensure a cool night's sleep after enjoying the warm Costa Rican weather. While not expected to do as much as they did, the housekeeping staff was phenomenal (our two teenagers weren't the tidiest). Clean linens were swapped out, and we were always asked if anything was needed. The caretakers of the grounds kept the walkways swept, the pool clean, and were extremely friendly. The property manager, Angie, provided us with her personal contact information and let us know she was available anytime to address any concerns with the home or just information about the local area, attractions, restaurants, etc. In addition to Angie, the staff at the main office, Dorit and Richard, were so professional, welcoming, and ensured we enjoyed our stay! Roscoe, the office cat, was even there to welcome us! We had read reviews about the house prior to booking, so we were aware of the staircase being outside not an issue for us). So nice to sit out on the balcony and watch the wildlife (scarlet macaws, lizards, monkeys, birds) or just cool off in the pool. For the record, the smaller side of the pool is not a hot tub/jacuzzi. It wasn't advertised as such, but not needed. The neighbors staying in the surrounding houses were always friendly, so it just made the experience that much more fun. I can't say enough good things about the fun and willing staff (security guards too). Definitely a fair price for a vacation home. The stay was better than expected! Loved our trip, the house, and people! ¡Pura Vida!

Really enjoyed our stay in Quepos. House had everything we needed, comfortable beds and strong WiFi. Monkey troupes coming through daily and iguanas hanging out with us by the pool was great. Staff went out of their way to make us comfortable and provide assistance booking excursions as well as getting a cake for a birthday. Highly recommend this house!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The house was beautiful, comfortable, and well equipped. The pool was a great way to cool off in the hot afternoons. The house is walking distance to Quepos, stores, restaurants, and a short taxi or bus ride to Manuel Antonio beaches and nature preserve. The concierge Angie and Dorit were amazingly helpful, responsive, and attentive. They set up tours, recommended activities and places to go. We would absolutely come Here again! Thank you!

Our first day, we watched a troop of monkeys play in the trees while we lounged in the pool! Everyday we saw new wildlife including the Blue Morpho butterfly. The house is very large and struck just the right note between luxurious and casual. The house is on a slope so the view is of the dense tree canopy, and the shade makes it very cool and comfortable! The location was perfect as we went to scuba with Oceans Unlimited at the Quepos marina, enjoyed a fantastic selection of restaurants, could walk to buy groceries, and made the easy drive to Manuel Antonio. Everything is very well maintained and the daily housekeeping was very thoughtful. Our teenage nephew enjoyed having the downstairs to himself while my husband and I enjoyed the generous master suite with a fantastic shower, and we all used the refreshing pool every day and watched the wildlife together from the balcony. We also enjoyed making the hike to the private waterfall and swimming hole - what a unique treat!

This place was great. It has everything you could need or want during your stay. It is perfectly located to get to the beach, waterfall or shops. Dorit and the staff at the front desk were wonderful and there to answer any questions you have.

The description of the property is mostly accurate with one exception....It states there are 2 King beds, a single bed, and a double bed. There is no single bed. I called to verify this prior to our stay (because I didn't see a single bed in any pictures) and I was told the "single bed" is the "sitting area" at the foot of the bed that you can see in the picture. They said it would not accommodate my 12-year-old, but they told me they could put a "real single bed" in the upstairs master bedroom at no extra charge so we went ahead and rented the house with that expectation. Unfortunately, they did not provide a "real single bed". It was a small wooden platform, about the size of a toddler bed, with a very thin and very soft cushion. There was no way my 12-year-old could sleep on it. It was too small and extremely uncomfortable. I'm not even sure a toddler would have been OK on it because it was like sleeping directly on the wooden platform. So, if you need to have a bed for a toddler or child you cannot assume you will get a real bed, even if you are told they will put one in. The other thing to know is this is a tropical area and there are BUGS! The bugs can easily crawl in under the doors where the balcony is. We had beetles everywhere! This is unavoidable, but the one thing that would have been nice is if the maid service that came in daily would have swept up the beetles every time they came in. They did not. By the end of our 4-day stay, there were A LOT of dead beetles lying around. They were all over the floor and some were dead under the couch cushions. Another issue is the oven did not work. It is a gas oven and the lighter appeared to be broken. The stove worked, but not the oven. We told the manager it didn't work so they were going to call someone to look at it after we left. Additionally, the pictures appear to show a hot tub next to the swimming pool, but the pool man who came to clean the pool told us it actually is NOT a hot tub so don't be fooled by the pictures. Also, be aware there is no dishwasher, so if you eat in, you have to hand wash all dishes. The description doesn't claim to have a dishwasher so it's our fault we didn't notice that. The house is in a nice gated area, the grounds are nice, and the setting is nice. The floor plan works well for 2 families, and the upstairs kitchen/living room accommodated 7 people very well. The property manager and staff were helpful when we had questions.

The location of the house is unbeatable. From the garden and balcony we were treated to fantastic sightings of monkeys, toucans, lizards, and we could hear macaws right nearby. At the same time, we were close enough to town to easily have access to groceries and such. The manager and the concierge, Magay, were very helpful, calling each evening to see how our day was and whether we needed anything for the next day. The pool was a great place to cool down after a rain forest hike. The house itself was comfortable, although one of the downstairs bedrooms is not air conditioned, and the lack of indoor stairs (which we knew about ahead of time) was inconvenient, especially as we were traveling with children and they were sleeping downstairs. Also, if you book the house, bring some large zip lock bags to secure your food against the ants that show up instantly at the single dropped crumb.

We enjoyed our 3 night stay very much. Lots of space. Well equipped kitchen. Great location. Safe/secure gated neighborhood. Very friendly staff. Only negative that I would point out is that the two floors are somewhat independent, meaning that there is no internal connection, and therefore require you to go outside to go from one floor to the next. With 2 bedrooms down and one bedroom up, our family of 5 had three of us downstairs and two upstairs. This arrangement is ok, but could be improved if the doors facing pool on each side could be opened by key or touch code from outside, but the latch mechanisms didn't allow that. Still give the place 5 stars anyway!

We lucky to find this beautiful home last minute... the staff accommodated us immediately the same day and were very nice and efficient! The house is situated in the lush jungle with a gorgeous view overlooking the pool and surrounding nature. Our stay was beautiful and peaceful, the house was spacious and clean, and we were happy to have a big bath tub. We would stay here again.

The property was clean, beautiful and lovely. The house had all the amenities one would want in a home away from home. The regular cleaning lady helped maintain clean towels and kitchen and whatnot. Make sure you go on the hike to the waterfall! So beautiful! Make sure you are home in the afternoon once or twice to catch all the monkeys in the trees! Dorit and Jessica attended to our every need and provided us with GREAT suggestions for activities and places to buy what we needed. I would come back for sure and tell a friend to stay for sure!

We had a lovely stay in Toucan Villa. The house is about a 10-minute drive to Manuel Antonio Park with great restaurants and beaches along the way. The house was very comfortable and had plenty of room for our family of four. The main living area is upstairs and that is where we spent most of our time. The only drawback is we had to go outside to go to the lower level of the house. Loved spending time on the porch early in the morning to listen to the birds chirping and enjoying great Costa Rican coffee. We can't say enough about Dorit and Jessica. Thank you for all of your great tips and hospitality. We hope to back soon!

How do you define PERFECT VACATION? For us it was a month at the Tucan Villa in Quepos. Everything was BETTER than we anticipated...the house, the pool, the surroundings. We slept well, played hard, and relaxed on the upper patio every day. There were 4-6 people living in the villa during the month. We never felt crowded...there was always another space in which to spread out. All the appliances were top notch...the villa was clean and well kept. Walking to Quepos or taking the bus to the beach in Manuel Antonio was easy. We ate in cute little restaurants in Quepos or fancier ones in Manuel Antonio...all the food was incredible. And the tours/tour guides were outstanding...so knowledgable...we particularly liked the night jungle tours with Brian and the birding tours with Johan all arranged by our wonderful managers Dorit (MANY THANKS!) and Rolando (THANKS SO MUCH). The women who cleaned the villa and the gentleman who cleaned the pool area every day were so friendly and did a great job. We really can't say enough about the Costa Rican people who are ALWAYS helpful and friendly. Coming home was a real let down!! PURA VIDA!!!

Tres bel emplacement entre Manuel Antonio et quepos La maison offre tt le nécessaire pour passer un bon séjour La nature toute proche vous assure un beau spectacle entre singe,oiseau et paresseux 👍 Nous reviendrons avec plaisir Merci pour tout
