We had six couples that stayed for an amazing nine nights. The space was perfect for all of us to have our privacy, but it also had great gathering spots. We absolutely loved the pool and gardens. We had visits from lots of monkeys, a toucan, and even an anteater. Maria was wonderful with communication and helping us plan all of our excursions and answered any questions that we had. Erika and Mauricio did a great job at keeping everything so clean and in working order. Chef Paige provided us with some delicious dinners. The location was walking distance to restaurants, shopping and a small grocery store. The local bus worked great and was very reasonable get around. I only wish that the beach was a little closer to walk to. I would definitely recommend this VRBO and would love to stay here again.

Or stay at Casa Tolteca was 5-star from beginning to end. Maria, Erica and Mauricio could not have been more attentive to all of our needs. They kept the house clean and tidy and very functional. Maria arranged for groceries, transportation, and tours without any hitches. The rooms were well-equipped and separated by different levels which allowed a large family to enjoy the whole entire house without being on top of each other. The pool was a delight, not only to the adults, but to our two grandchildren who thoroughly loved it.

Casa Tolteca was beautiful! We had 12 people (6 adults and 6 kids) and the rooms were perfect for 3 families. The view was spectacular and the monkeys and nature around us was fun and calming. Perfect location! The table was large and family friendly. The chef option was a fun experience. The staff was respectful and caring. It was a trip of a lifetime for our family. Thank you

We really enjoyed our getaway. Place was very nice. Lots of monkeys and Macaws. Little more distance to the beach than we would want to walk. Nice restaurants within walking distance. Small convenience stores a few blocks away. Overall, a great stay. Definitely pay for the husband and wife personal chefs....delicious foods.

Great property , friendly and helpful staff. Loved the views and Monkeys

Our stay at Casa Tolteca in Costa Rica was simply amazing! Concierge Maria was a true professional, effortlessly coordinating tours for our group of 17, spanning ages from 10 to 83. The villa provided spacious and comfortable accommodations for all of us, and the sunsets were breathtaking from the rooftop. We lounged like iguanas on the roof tiles, taking in the serene views of the bay. Chef Paige delighted us with delicious, healthy meals for dinner. Her expertise in the kitchen brought a sense of joy and togetherness for the entire family. Casa Tolteca is a luxury paradise that exceeded our expectations. Ms. Maria's service, Chef Paige's expertise, the accommodations, and the sunsets make it a must-visit. We can't wait to return!

We hosted our entire family (including adult kids, partners, younger kids, and grandkids) for a week. The home is clean, well laid out with plenty of space for being alone, as well as many areas to gather. The view is wonderful, as is the wildlife--admittedly, the howler monkeys were a surprise the first night. Our concierge helped us book all of our excursions including transport, and coordinated a photographer for a family photo session, and chef services for the week (breakfast & dinner). Maid service and maintenance were there daily to freshen up and take care of the pool and anything else that needed attention. NOTE: the maid will do your laundry if you leave it in the basket. Be cool and tip for that if you do it. You also have access to the washing machine and drier as well. There was easy transport by bus to Quepos and to the beach. If there's a word of caution it's that "walkable" in Costa Rica is not the same as "walkable" in the U.S. There are no sidewalks to speak of and the roads are narrow. It was a great experience--Costa Rica, and Casa Tolteca

We loved everything about our time at Casa Tolteca!

We had 17 family members stay the week of July 8th in this beautiful home which is perfectly located in the town, close to restaurants, transportation and the beach. The private chefs, mechanic and housekeeping were amazing! Bets trip we've ever experienced. Highly recommend.

This home lived up to all the hype. It was a beautiful house in a beautiful setting. The entire staff was great.

Each year I plan a trip for my entire family. We go a different place each time and enjoy the local activities and culture. This year we chose Costa Rica. Casa Tolteca has the perfect location for activities, food, views and wildlife. Maria, the concierge was phenomenal. Her response time is immediate, she is thoughtful, professional and goes beyond for her clients. The home is beautiful. The views are amazing. One of the best accommodations ever. I highly recommend it.

Our stay in Manuel Antonio was an experience of a lifetime. The house was absolutely perfect for our adult family. The bedrooms and different living floors was perfect for privacy. There is so much to do in Manuel Antonio and we cannot wait to go back! From the beach, to the National Park, to the excursions (highly recommend the ATV tour), to the restaurants and shops -- it was all amazing! Our daily visit from the monkeys was fun (they're so cute). Maria and the chefs took great care of us and I highly recommend using Marisol to cook your meals. The meals she prepared for us at the house were far better than any restaurant. We felt safe, supported and fully taken care of by Maria. This house is definitely one to rent; we kept asking ourselves, is this even real??

Even before we arrived Maria made everything so stress free. The staff was amazing. The house was everything we were looking for and more! All 10 of us had an amazing vacation at Casa Tolteca!!

I can't say enough good things about this property! We loved the layout, plenty of space for everyone and very comfortable beds. The house was clean and well-maintained - as shown in the pictures in the listing. We had the chef cook for us a few times, and every meal was fantastic!! Maria, the concierge was very responsive, helpful and went above and beyond! During our stay she booked us a fishing trip (which the guys said was the best charter they've ever experienced), we went white water rafting, and we got massages at the house. All were enjoyable! She also was able to get us groceries/alcohol delivered promptly. We had swarms of monkeys pass by everyday. Across the street at the Falls, we enjoyed dinner, drinks and apps (super affordable compared to other places in the area- check it out for sure!) The zip coaster and a few other restaurants are also right up the hill when you need a break out to the sun. I can't say enough good things, we wish we would have stayed longer. Thank you!

Our trip to Casa Tolteca was unforgettable in the best possible way. From start to finish, we were taken care of by the amazing staff who made our stay everything we could have imagine and more. Maria, the concierge was incredibly responsive both before our trip and also throughout the vacation. She helped arrange everything we did, booked the amazing chefs for us (highly recommend), and arranged all of our transportation. She accommodated all of our last minute needs/requests and even had groceries delivered for us. With Casa Tolteca, you get more than just a house…you get a staff! Finding a house for 4 adults and 9 children can be challenging, and Casa Tolteca checked all of the boxes. The property is private and felt intimate, but with plenty of space for people to spread out and not be in each others hair the whole time. We all LOVED the pool and daily visits from the Iguanas and monkeys. This is a trip we won’t soon forget!

The property is just as beautiful as the photos indicate. There was plenty of room for our group of 8 adults and 4 children to spread out. The pool, while small, was a huge hit with everyone. The food prepared by the friendly chefs was superb, and we enjoyed several excursions as well.

From day 1 of booking- it was a breeze to organize a full-service trip to celebrate 6 big birthdays with lifelong friends. Chef services with Marisol exceeded our expectations- she was amazing and fun. Delicious fresh food, beautifully and creatively prepared. Bartender Juan Pablo was fabulous. Maria arranged all of our excursions; gardens and house are cared for throughout the stay. Pool is a dream! Yoga teacher Priscilla was a joy; massage services capped off a perfect week. Flowers and birds; a quick monkey visit, iguanas… just a dream come true. Many thanks to all. USA needs more direct flights! Still worth it.

Absolutely incredible stay at Casa Tolteca. Perfect house to enjoy views, wildlife, and to relax. We hosted a casual wedding party for 25 people and it was a once in a lifetime experience. The hosts recommended Paige for private chat services and her meals were incredible. We saw as much if not more wildlife here than anywhere in Manuel Antonio including monkeys, toucans, macaws, and the iguanas that like to hang out with you at the pool. 11/10 would recommend

Beautiful villa with a spectacular view; it was ideal for exploring Manuel Antonio! Maria helped us set up everything that we wanted to do and made our stay perfect. The cleaning and maintenance staff attend to the property daily. What a pleasure our stay was.

There aren't many words that can describe how amazing this place was to stay. From the views, to the property, to the outstanding service from everyone working there we had an unforgettable trip. We woke up every morning drinking coffee to monkeys running around! Maria was amazing and helped book all of our activities before and during the trip. It was not difficult to get a hold of her for a last minute grocery order or taxi anything we needed really and all of the guides were top notch. If you are reading this and on the fence about booking don't think and just do it immediately 100% worth the price!

I stayed for two weeks with two groups of friends and my daughter. We all travel extensively and couldn't ask for a better experience. From the concierge, the housekeeper, the gardener, and the chef, we were treated well and never wanted for anything. The property is just as represented. Its on the main road convenient to restaurants and the beach, but quiet when inside enjoying the pool. You will not be disappointed!

We had a fantastic holiday and New Year’s in Manuel Antonio at Casa Tolteca. The location was great. You can walk right out the front door, turn right or left and have nice shopping and restaurants with amazing views in the fun little town of Manual Antonio. You can walk to the beach, but the walk back up the hill is likely difficult for some. We would bar hop on the way back. It is also easy to drive and park by the beach. The house itself is very well-maintained and spacious with great views. There is wildlife around and most every morning we were visited by white face monkeys, and one morning we had a visit from a pack of squirrel monkeys. The home is directly across the street from The Falls boutique hotel, so it is easy to find. The property has amazing easy parking as well. The staff was also fantastic. Maria did a great job of coordinating our stay and all of our activities. While we might’ve been on Tico time, everything that was set up by Maria was always on time. She was always available and quickly responsive. We had to make a lot of changes to our activities and she was efficient and accommodating. Erika and Mauricio were amazing. Any small issues we had was resolved quickly with big smiles. The chefs that Maria recommended were also fantastic and very reasonably priced with plenty of delicious food such that we could have leftovers! The people of Costa Rica are remarkably fun and friendly. It is understandable why so many people love vacationing here. Pura Vida!

Fantastic property for our party of 10. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Maria was very accommodating will all our excursions and transportation. Israel and Marisol came and cooked for us 3 days and it was fantastic!! Highly recommend the private chefs. The maid service and grounds were also fantastic. We enjoyed the pool. Although it was small it was very nice and had plenty of sunshine with an ocean view. Also had amazing sunsets every night. We also saw plenty of wildlife at and around the property. Thanks for the wonderful family vacation.

Everything was exactly as advertised and more! Lovely property well within walking distance of anything you could want/need. The only aspect that surpassed the house itself was the people working there! Everyone was very attentive and kind, the house and the people made our trip to Costa Rica a huge success for me and my family. We can't wait to come back again. Erika, Mauricio, and Maria were all a pleasure to see and very accommodating. Can not recommend Casa Tolteca enough!

This is the perfect place to slow down and enjoy the routines of the animals around you. After a hectic but wonderful 5 days elsewhere in Costa Rica, we loved the slower pace of our 4 night stay here. Seeing the monkeys, toucans, macaws, and iguanas here go about their daily routines was so special. The abundance of outside living on the property was excellent, and we had so much space to spread out, as well as the perfect places to come together and enjoy each others’ company. Maria was wonderfully prompt and helpful, and Marisol and Israel were incredible chefs. What a great vacation.

I can write a plethora of good things about this place. Just book it!

Just returned from a week at Casa Tolteca and the house was exactly as advertised. It was BEAUTIFUL! The pool was excellent, the other outdoor spaces including hammocks were great. The bedrooms were all great. We had a wonderful time! We were a group of 12 celebrating my 60th birthday. The housekeeper Erika is terrific as is Maurizio the groundskeeper. Maria the concierge is also terrific. Everyone was so helpful! I absolutely recommend hiring the chef Marisol and her husband Isra to come and cook. You will not be disappointed! We had them cook our first and last night. My husband said those were his two best meals in Manuel Antonio! Also, be sure and visit the Falls Hotel directly across from Casa Tolteca. GREAT happy hour and delicious and incredibly inexpensive breakfast. Show them some love as they said they rarely get guests from Casa Tolteca. I also recommend having the massage therapist come to the house. 3 in our group had massages and said they were terrific. For a large group you cannot go wrong with staying here!

Casa Tolteca is the perfect home for a large group. The home is so beautiful with views, wildlife, and well maintained pool and gardens. The home was very clean and well maintained. We had everything we needed and more. Maria was absolutely amazing. She was there for our arrival and departure. She arranged all of our outings, answered all our questioned and even arranged a private chef. The chefs Marisol and Israel were great. They were so kind and the food was excellent. I highly recommend Casa Tolteca and would love to come back.

The house was great. All of our activities that we planned through concierge were great. Marisol and Israel (private chefs) were the best part of the trip! Food was delicious, but we also really enjoyed our time with them!!! Our family (15) all loved them!

We had quite a selection committee and this property eventually won out over multiple properties in Costa Rica and Mexico's Yucatan.

The house is located right off the main road which means walking distance to a lot of things. The trade off is you get some road noise occasionally but nothing terrible. The view is spectacular!! Maria the concierge is phenomenal! Extremely responsive and extremely organized. Seriously, turn your vacation over to her and she’ll knock it out of the park. Mauricio is super helpful around the grounds, and Erika kept the place spotless. She also did daily laundry for us which is worth it’s weight in gold to us. Hire the chef! Marisol and her husband Israel are the sweetest people! We’ve never felt more welcome by a chef at a vrbo before. The food was amazing, but the quality of the people preparing it made it truly special. If you’re looking at this house don’t hesitate to pull the trigger. You will not regret it! Pura Vida!!

The staff at Casa Tolteca make sure that you have everything you need and really take care of you. The property is breathtakingly beautiful and located so that you do not need to have a car to go to find great restaurants and small shops. The chefs that we worked with also provided amazing, flavorful, and fresh meals. We loved the freedom to walk or bus to the beach and truly enjoyed the beauty of having beach and rainforest together.
