Toucan Garden Villa 5 Bedroom Rainforest Retreat - Houses for Rent in Quepos, Provincia de Puntarenas, Costa Rica

As we drove down the palm tree lined driveway, we were in awe of the beauty of the premises and the landscaping. The property manager was waiting at the end of the driveway and showed us where to park and gave us a tour of the beautiful facilities. It was even better than the pictures. We had daily activities planned but honestly I could have spent the entire week just on this beautiful property. It is in the middle of the jungle so there were a variety of birds, iguanas, frogs, lizards, geckos and toads on and around the property. We had a private pool party every night that we were there and had some nice sunsets from the pool!

Waking up to macaws and toucans in the trees surrounding the pool made us feel like we finally landed in Costa Rica! While we loved going out to explore for waterfall and beach excursions, we were always ready to get back “home” and relax by the pool overlooking the sea in the distance. Such a tranquil space! Be sure to hire Chef Pepe and his wife Ana for a meal or two! They were so accommodating, welcoming, and informative! Their cooking was out of this world. The best tuna ever! Chef’s kiss!

A true paradise. A beautiful villa with a magnificent pool and great views over the rainforest to the pacific ocean and surrounded by lovely gardens full of flora and fauna including Toucans, Humming Birds, Butterflies, Monkeys and, of course, Geckos. We were two families of 5 adults and three children and were extremely comfortably accommodated in the 5 spacious bedrooms. Quepos was a comfortable and easy 20 minute drive to the beach and for major amenities using the SUV and Jeep provided however the local village, which is only 5 minutes drive away, had everything required for day to day. The area provides a good range of activities as well as beautiful beaches and easy proximity to Manuel Antonio National Park. All in all a superb holiday in a great area area of Costa Rica.

Thanks Kevin, so glad you took full advantage of all the beauty and adventures and had an amazing trip!

WOW! Absolutely paradise! Our family of 9 was so comfortable and blown away by the property. Tips: plan ahead and arrange transportation and book Pepe for every dinner. Don’t miss the nature trail on property.

What a fantastic Costa Rican experience. The photos really can't do this home justice. We traveled with our three young adult kids + one significant other. We all enjoyed being able to spread out while spending time together. Our typical day started with an activity like hiking or zip lining and lunch in the area, followed by swimming, playing pool or hitting golf balls, lounging in a hammock or pool side lounge, playing the guitar, hiking the private trail down to the waterfall or just taking in the gorgeous property. We shopped nearby and made dinner each night (the kitchen is equipped with everything you need and more) which we enjoyed by the pool or in the event space, followed by (usually) dice games and streaming something in the super comfortable living room before heading to our private spaces. Beautiful, comfortable, and luxurious, being at this villa was truly part of the vacation itself!

We are so glad you enjoyed everything and made the most of your vacation- thank you!!

Three different villas on our trip, this was our first stop and it remains the family favourite. We loved everything about it. The drive in was a little bit sketchier than we anticipated, google maps led us down some rough roads, but we figured out our best n and out from the property and felt very comfortable driving from then on. The little shops in the nearest two towns had what we needed but good to stock up ahead of time. This retreat is peaceful but with lots to enjoy on the property, and the view CANNOT be beat. You feel a world away from everything yet only ~20 minutes into Quepos. Multiple friends have asked for the link to this property and I would hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Thanks for the amazing stay!!

Beautiful place. Amazing views. Difficult to find. 30-90 min drive to Quepos, so plan accordingly. Highly recommend using the Rio Naranjito bridge to get easier access to Quepos and the national park. Most apps show this bridge closed, but it is not (only closed to large trucks and buses).

Hi Jorge, recently google maps has changed the routing unnecessarily we just found out. Thank you for noting this!

We had a fantastic stay at the Tucon Villa! Visited in April 2025 as a group of 6 adults and 6 kids. The property is perfect for families or groups, with a great pool enjoyed by both kids and adults. The garden, full of fruit trees, added a peaceful, tropical vibe. Each bedroom has its own bathroom—super convenient for multiple families—and the fully stocked kitchen made meals easy. The on-site washer and dryer were a huge plus. We also loved birdwatching right from the property! The location is ideal, just a short drive to Quepos and Manuel Antonio, offering both convenience and privacy. The only suggestion would be to provide clearer directions for first-time visitors. Overall, highly recommended—we’d definitely come back!

Teri’s place was a Costa Rican paradise! Absolutely gorgeous views, the pictures simply don’t do it justice! A completely private oasis while still less than 1/2 hour from Manuel Antonio and Quepos with plenty of restaurants/shops if you’re looking for something to do. We spent a week there with 4 adults and 7 kids and it was very family friendly, though it would be a perfect romantic/adult getaway too. Bedrooms were dreamy, kitchen was well equipped, house was nicely appointed, outdoor space and pool were just absolute perfection! One thing to note: IF YOU FOLLOW A GPS TO THE ADDRESS, it will take you a much longer route and will take you 30 mins on an extremely rough gravel road. The host was proactive in letting us know to take a different route- 616 over a bridge that gps says is closed/out of order-but we opted to follow the gps the first time to avoid getting lost somewhere without WiFi. Highly recommend familiarizing yourself with the suggested route and going via the bridge!

Great place to stay! Jose was very responsive and helpful when we had questions about the house and area. Teri was awesome to work with. We can’t wait to come back in the future!

This was exactly what we were looking for. The house was wonderful and the surroundings were absolutely gorgeous!  We were able to see all kinds of wildlife right from the patio: monkeys, toucans and all kinds of butterflies just to name a few. It's a bit off the beaten track, but that was a positive for us. Jose was so helpful and responsive - we really loved his dogs! We also splurged and had Chef Pepe cook a delicious meal for us. It was such a magical place to stay!

Teri’s place is nothing short of stunning. Beautifully appointed, very clean, spacious, perfect layout, breathtaking views. Beyond my expectations. I would return over and over and over again and it wouldn’t get old. Also, Jose was a pleasure and super helpful.

This was my favorite airbnb so far. Teri was awesome and the property manager, Jose was super helpful and responsive. As far as the house and property, they were both incredible. The view was ridiculous and the pool was well-maintained and refreshing. I definitely plan on returning in the future .

This was the perfect place for our family of 10. The view was incredible and we saw toucans, monkeys and macaws. The kids swam in the pool every day. One night we had Pepe cook for us and he and his crew were so fun and the food was delicious. The kitchen was well stocked and we used it a lot. Jose was on the property so he was able to help us when we needed it. We found the beds comfortable and there was a good combination of them to suit our group. The link that Jose sent us on how to get there took us on a dirt road to the south of the property. He corrected the directions and we were able to get to town and beaches easily after that. We are planning to stay here again sometime in the future.

House was absolutely beautiful, loved every minute of this trip!

This house is beyond amazing! Our family (6 adults & 2 children) stayed a Toucan Garden over Christmas and it exceeded our expectations. The house is laid out well giving everyone enough private space. There are many areas inside & out to find a little quiet or to gather as a group. We spent most of our time in the pool and it's covered veranda. We also particularly loved the added fun this house provides: pool table, ping pong, corn hole as well as the outdoor gym. The beds were comfortable and the windows let in plenty of light. We cooked several meals using both the indoor & outdoor spaces, but also VERY much delighted in Chef Pepe's delicious meals and good company for a few nights. Definitely plan to use his services...his food is crazy good! Jose was also so helpful! The house is up a dirt road about 10 minutes from a mini-super. You can get basics here but we drove into Quepos for a larger shop and to hit the Farmer's Market (Fri/Sat). Such an excellent adventure!!

It's a special place, especially since I'm a angler. Beautiful house in a beautiful place . Wonderful stay.

To wyjątkowe miejsce, tym bardziej , że jestem wędkarzem. Przepiękny dom w przepięknym miejscu . Cudowny pobyt.

If you look for a Hollywood house lost in the countryside with an open view on the forest and the coast. This is the one! The swimming pool is huge like the whole rooms, and the billiards is a plus. So we recommend the place :-)

Wow! This place is absolutely amazing and better than advertised. Took my family of 9 and we had the time of our lives. Working with Teri was easy and she is extremely responsive. Jose, who is the local host, was great. Chef Pepe, who we hired to cook a few dinners, was fantastic. I highly recommend him. The house itself, the view, and the amenities, etc was perfect. We are already talking about another trip. Highly recommend!

Hi Mike, So glad you enjoyed the house and hope you do come back!! Thank you for your note on the wasp nests, I have let Jose know and he will take care of all of them! Thank you, Teri

Amazing experience. We had a group of 11 and rented two cars to drive down to Manuel Antonio from Sa n Jose. The roads were paved the entire 3 hr drive right up until we got to the house. We booked Chef Pepe for our first night and like the other reviews we regret not booking him more nights. If you are staying for four nights or longer I recommend booking chef Pepe for at least two nights. Jose was incredibly helpful with booking activities. We lost power twice during our stay but it was restored within a few hours. Great time.

Teri's place is gorgeous but had a few things that I wish we're advertised before I stayed there: 1) The location is about 40 minutes from the pinned location. ---This wouldn't have been a reason to not book the house but it did make my plans very difficult. I wish I had known where it was sooner. The house isn't even located within the thumbnail shown on the booking page. 2) There was DOG that lived on-property that was now our responsibility to care for while on vacation. Someone came once a day to feed it but that was it. ---I wish we had known in advance that there would be another dog as we had to continuously manage when our dog was out playing vs theirs. I found it very strange to own dog and leave it with strangers for a week and to not disclose this before booking. Overall, the property is fabulous but it isn't fully advertised correctly. I would book this place again but i would feel more comfortable knowing this before I do.

The place was a little remote but not too far from everything, was peaceful and felt very safe. The sunsets were beautiful and breathtaking. Having Jaco the dog there was really nice. Everything was amazing and spotless! Jose was always available and helpful. Dinner on the beach with Pepe and his wife was fabulous. Couldn't have met a nicer couple. I can't thank Kevin, Teri and Jose enough for the wonderful time and memories to last forever. Hope to make the trip again some day. I highly recommend!

This is a magical place in the middle of the jungle with a big huge pool and views of the ocean off in the distance. We loved our stay here and found it hard to leave. We used the services of the recommended chef PEPE, and he created quite a delicious dinner. I think the best fish I’ve ever had anywhere. There was a delightful little house dog named Choco and we just loved her. It was a lot of fun to have her around. It was hard finding the place, once I found it on Gogle maps. It was no problem, but I was trying to use Airbnb directions provided and they kept taking me to Manuel Antonio national park . I recommend coming stocked up with groceries, cause you’re not going to want to leave. I also recommend the BM market for stocking up great selection!

Thank you for the great feedback Doug! We will replace the knives for sure! Hope you can make your way back sometime.

It was better than I was expecting. The location is fantastic. A little remote from the touristy stuff but that was the whole point for our group and we enjoyed very much!  Amazing sunrises and sunsets by the huge pool, surrounded by jungle and with view of the ocean. Couldn’t be better!

Words don't do justice to just how stunning this place is. Unfortunately for us our family who we booked with were unable to join us in the end, so it ended up being very big and lavish for just the five of us - but we certainly made the most of it! The pool is amazing and the bar/games area was brilliant for our teenage sons. We were just sad to leave!

Our second time staying here and it was again excellent - the property has only been improved since last time! Outside of town, great for groups, and Jose, Pepe, and the team are great

Best vacation by far. Tucan Garden is far enough out of town to be secluded, yet close enough to everything you want to do in Costa Rica. Jose, Toucans' private concierge, is top notch. He arranged everything seamlessly. Fishing, zipline & 4 wheeler tours, massages right at the house. rainforest tours and hikes. He even arranged a five-star dinner to be prepared before our very eyes the evening we arrived. We ate like kings and queens overlooking a misty rainforest backdropped by the sparkling Pacific as the sun set. Exotic, relaxing, luxurious, exciting... Yeah, pick an adjective. We were grinning ear to ear all night. The property has too much to mention. fully equipped indoor kitchen. Huge first rate outdoor bar/kitchen/dining areas. Beds are crazy comfortable. Ping pong table, pool table, a driving pin, . Oh yeah an onsite nature trail with its own little waterfall at the bottom!! Never mind five stars, take advantage of the telescope there at night and see all the stars.

This place is PHENOMENAL! A group of 6 of us stayed for 3 nights and we regretted not staying longer. We were all perfectly comfortable and it seemed like every amenity we could have asked for was right at our fingertips. This has been my dream trip since I was little and this beautiful home pushed it above and beyond what I ever could have expected. Jose was a fantastic host and was constantly checking in with us. You MUST choose the private chef option because the team of Jose and Ana blew our minds! My group and I only booked them for one night and we so wished we had booked them for the entire stay. I’m so glad I got to stay here. Note: it is very far away from everything. Make sure you go grocery shopping before you get there!

From the moment we booked and throughout our trip, Teri and Jose exhibited excellent communication skills. Jose is also the property manager who is nearby/onsite, which was super helpful. All in all, if we come back to the area, we will definitely consider this listing!

This Airbnb was absolutely phenomenal. Completely secluded in mountain jungle with tons of covered outdoor space and a great pool to hang out during the day. Quick drives into town or to Manuel Antonio made it easy to pick a variety of activities every day. Jose and his team made the stay very comfortable and welcoming with helpful tips when we had questions. Will stay again!

Wonderful place to kick back and relax. Property is superbly managed, the private chef was great. The pool, outdoor dining area, and property overall were lovely. Highly recommend.

The house was beautiful.  Spectacular views, awesome amenities.  Lovely outdoors, very, very spacious inside.  Had everything we  needed and more.

We absolutely loved our stay at this magical property! The house is huge and gorgeous with enough room for our two families. The views are incredible. Swimming in the lovely pool and looking out to see the Pacific Ocean…what could be better than that?! Jose was wonderful and so helpful. And we adored the delicious meal prepared by Chef Pepe. Thank you all for making our stay such a special experience!

Thank you Susan, we are so glad you had a wonderful vacation!!

Toucan Garden Villa is the place to be! My friends and I had a lovely, restful stay and we can’t recommend it enough. The pool was pristine and the views are breathtaking. Definitely recommend booking Chef Pepe for at least one meal - you will not regret!

Incredible space to relax and disconect. Pool is large enough to practice swimming and theres several áreas in place that you can enjoy.  Host Is always available for any doubt. I hope that I come back some day

11/10 Property. The house is made by craftsmen, with impeccable woodwork throughout the house. Jose is extremely helpful. We loved hanging out by the pool, enjoying the view of the canopy, and BBQing.

This house is absolutely amazing with gorgeous views of scenery and ocean, lots to do with swimming pool, ping pong and pool table and outside kitchen!  We even saw several toucans! Pepe was our private chef for 3 nights- everything he prepared for us was spectacular- everyone in our family enjoyed the delicious appetizers, entrees and desserts!

The location was beautiful and the pool was a prefect way to start and end our days . Jose is a great property manager and the chef we hired Pepe was amazing. I was unaware that their is a property dog named Chaco who is so sweet. The property could use a generator for when the electricity is lost during storms which happened twice !

This place is beautiful and spectacular. The surroundings are amazing. It is described exactly as it is. The pool is beyond lovely. Jose easily helps with everything you might want or need. He is fully accommodating. I loved the location, the home, everything. The chefs, Tony and Hannah, are wonderful. Hire them for at least one evening if not every night. I would love to come back to share this home with loved ones. Alicia and Cliff

When booking, the lovely house manager Jose set us up with a personal shuttle from SJO to the house. Jose was very helpful and available to help book activities and answer any questions we might have had. The drive there was beautiful and the driver Marco was so kind. Once at the house, Jose gave us an in depth house tour and an amazing property fauna and flora tour. The house is surrounded by many fruits that can be enjoyed when ripe. The panoramic view from the house was breathtaking and you could see beautiful birds fly by at any moment (toucans, macaws, green parrots, etc.). The house was very well equipped for everyday life and was impeccably clean. The pool is humongous, there’s a gym, a pool table, ping pong table, a soon to be second outdoor cooking area (perfect for a private chef). The house is very accommodating and spacious for a large group. The decor was very tasteful and homie. We could have stayed there forever. Londres, the town the house is located in, is charming… we even played a Canada vs Costa Rica soccer game against the locals. There are many activities to do near the house (30 minutes drive). Quepos, Manuel Antonio, and Dominical are all a short and enjoyable drive away. Choco the dog is soooo sweet and friendly to hang out with. We will miss him dearly. I want to go back every year!

My family and I had a wonderful time at this gorgeous spacious, clean villa. The pictures really do not do justice when it comes to the beauty of this place. The view is breathtaking, the pool is clean & spacious. Great for games, or just for chilling under the sun. Jose answered all of my questions (and I had many lol), gave suggestions on restaurants. We celebrated my husbands 30th birthday and Jose helped me book private chefs, a singer with an angelic voice and a mariachi band who all came to the house and made the experience unforgettable!! If you book private chefs through Jose, you won’t regret it. The price is great, all the food was AMAZING & DELICIOUS, and they cleaned everything after cooking and left the kitchen spotless. Great people too! ♥️ The town is just a 20-25 minute ride. I recommend Restaurants El Avión with great history and food, as well as El Wagon with the best fired wood pizza. Omg. I hope you decide to stay at this gem and support a wonderful business, not only that but also truly ENJOY IT. This was the best vacation for my family and I and we will be back yearly!

Our stay was beyond fantastic.  The entire property is set up so you don't have to leave if you don't want....workout, read a book, take a swim or a hike, and watch the most spectacular sunset's that we have ever seen.  I know it's tough not to do work on vacation now a days, but the internet was very fast and kids were able to stream easily which is a plus nowadays.  All in all one, if not the best vacation we have ever taken.  You won't be sorry you booked at Toucan Garden Villa.

Toucan Garden Villa was an absolute dream vacation in Costa Rica. Although it isn't right next to the beach or the excursions we did, the 25 minute drive was worth it every single time. After a day of action, being able to arrive back at this house was all our group wanted. The house is immaculate, the amenities are so well thought out and convenient. Anything we needed at any moment was already there. Choco the dog was an unbelievable plus, we wanted to take him back home with us. The privacy, the views, the sunsets, the pool, the bar, the driving range, the grill, the gym, the ping pong and pool table, the comfortable beds and surplus of bathrooms made this a place me and my friends will never forget. We had so much fun spending quality time together at the Toucan Garden Villa. 10/10

This house is stunning. It is an amazing property to book if you are looking to be secluded and enjoy long days by the pool. It is quite far from San Jose airport so be prepared for a long journey on unpaved roads. We came here with a group of 9 girls to celebrate a bachelorette. We booked a private chef for our meals and we are glad we did because leaving the house requires booking transport in advance and at least a 20-30 minute journey to the closest store. Jose, the property manager, was always available to us and answered our messages immediately, even before we arrived. The house is very secure, we had no concerns about safety. All the beds were very comfortable and there were more than enough bathrooms and showers for our group. Strong AC in every room. Beautiful flora and fauna around the property, we were lucky enough to spot a toucan on our last day!

Teri's villa was everything we expected and more! Communication was always very easy with Jose. He was beyond accommodating in any request we had, was very helpful with suggestions in the area as well. The views were stunning, we looked forward to having breakfast every morning overlooking the pool and the forest. Take a quick walk on the nature trail to see all of the monkeys and local vegetation! And lastly, can't forget to mention Jose's sweet pup Choco! Would absolutely recommend and stay here again.

this is a one of a kind place.. amazing ... off the beat and path and special.. you feel like your on top of the world... just amazing...

Beautiful house with magnificent views. Pretty isolated but it was exactly what we were looking for after spending time in busy Jaco. I would advise buying groceries before you get there as its about a 30 minute drive to Quepos. Would definitely recommend for those looking for quiet relaxation and beautiful views.

The villa was perfect. Surrounded by a beautiful larg garden, including fruit trees, were birds and butterflies are commenly seen. A larg and beautiful pool with magnificent views. The house was superb. larg, comfortable and well maintained. Jose was very kind and helpful. We hope to be able to come again. We had a great vacation.

This place was absolutely perfect.  Jose was amazing, helped with anything we needed on our first trip ever to Central America.  Home was clean, beautiful setting, secluded, quiet, had everything we could ask for and more.  Beautiful hiking trail on property leading to a small waterfall.  Beautiful view of ocean.  Toucans and other gorgeous wildlife.  Was able to access with 4x2 vehicle.  About 20 minutes from Quepos.  Felt safe (gated entry to property). No neighbors.  Perfection on a hilltop.  5 big bedrooms each with own private bathroom.  Plenty of hot water.  Pool/ping pong tables.  Be sure to look at back yard beyond pool at dusk - saw a huge group of fireflies twinkling like the night sky.

Toucan Garden Villa is an amazing home and lived up to the billing. The property is gorgeous, views are incredible. It was fun to come home at the end of our day and be able to swim, play pool and ping pong, grill on the patio, etc. Also great to have the exercise area, and miles of jungle backroads to run on. The ONLY challenge is cellular signal/internet speeds. This is a remote spot and if you need high speed or a lot of bandwidth during your vacation you will struggle. But, isn’t that why we go on vacation to Costa Rica, to take a break from some of this? We really enjoyed our time there and would recommend it to friends. The little town of Londres has mini super markets and small family restaurants. We enjoyed some great local fuss and the people are friendly.

Thank you so much, we are glad You enjoyed it!!!

Pros: The location, property amenities, house layout are incredible. Jose was wonderful to work with, supremely responsive, helpful , and kind. The gardens beautiful. Cons: while the linens and highly trafficked floors were clean, the house over all was not. It needs a deep clean.

The photos and reviews for this home do not even come close to how absolutely beautiful it is in person. Remote location that makes you feel completely at home and submerged in nature. We saw lots of wildlife and enjoyed every single minute of our stay.

Pros: Let me start by saying the posted pictures don’t do this house/property any justice, we were all pleasantly surprised after arriving. This place was like a like a mini retreat, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the nearby city, but close enough for a 20-30 drive down to the marina or the city for food and drinks. If rest and relaxation is what you are looking for this is the place for you. This property comfortably accommodated my group of 8 with space for a few more if needed. All of the bedrooms where located at each corner of the house (great if traveling with couples for privacy), with 2 of them having a private bathroom and direct access to the patio/pool. The pool was huge and the views were indescribable. You can watch the sun rise or set if you wish. There is also a nature trail on the property that I had the opportunity to explore; I’d actually consider it more of a hike and wouldn’t suggest it if you aren’t moderately fit. Lastly, Jose is the property manager was AMAZING. He was communicative from the time we booked until we left the property; setting up airport transfer, gathering info for excursions with pricing, and offered suggestions for restaurants. This was great and super helpful with it being our first time visiting Costa Rica Cons: the house isn’t not really modern so if modern/upscale decor is what you are looking for this isn’t the house for you. The other pool and views were a trade off for this. The house could use a deep clean and some of the dishes were dirty but nothing significant. Overall this is a gorgeous property and I would absolutely stay here again.

The place was perfect! The view is incredible. The house is big and comfortable. The property has a private trail in the mountain, this was the cherry on the top! We loved it!

Great house with beautiful views and Jose was a great person to talk to and get a tour in the city from super helpful from before we even arrived It’s a pretty long drive from the airport but we’ll worth it just make sure to take the freeways and not any other routes The house is great and about a 15-20 min drive from the city and beaches As a first timer in Costa Rica I would recommend not paying for a tour of the San manual national park just pay to enter it and walk around by yourself is more fun Great experience all together 1000% would recommend

Perfect remote location, huge house, huge and nice pool. Perfect views, a lot of facilities like grill, billard, ping-pong, large kitchen etc. It's remote but if you like to stay in the middle of jungle/forrest, quiet location on large property it's for you about 30min drive to big stores and Manuel Antonio

This being our first time in CR we had a group of 6 adults. The home was beautiful. Plenty of open space. Bedroom spaced out. The yard was definitely best perk out of everything. Swimming pool did not disappoint. Natural trail/pool table/ golfing and other amenities were all within our back yard. We would spend most of our morning having coffee and enjoy all the wild life around us. The weather was absolutely amazing for the week we spend there. Driving from San Jose airport wasn't as long as I expected about 2-2 1/2 hours. Road do have potholes so just pay attention. About 30-35 mins from Manuel Antonio. Jose was wondering in every aspect. We had as much privacy as we needed. Questions and any concerns we answered in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend this home to my friends and family visiting CR. Thank you for an amazing experience. We'll be back! Pura Vida!

Teri’s Airbnb was amazing. The views were unreal. José the concierge was very nice and always available to answer all questions. The villa had a ton of activities including pool table, ping pong, small gym and very big pool. They even provide golf balls for you to hit them into the jungle. Highly recommend if you’re going to be traveling to Costa Rica.

If you are near the Quepos area you MUST stay at this home! Extremely spacious, everything you need, spectacular views, super safe, and great for viewing wildlife while lounging in the pool or reading in the lounge chairs. We saw the best sunsets of our entire trip here. We saw six toucans in the trees right next to the back patio. The pool is absolutely amazing! All of the rooms are large with very comfortable beds. Great for a family to have a space of their own. Kitchen is fully stocked. The property is amazing. We went on the nature trail on the property. We gathered and ate white pineapples, two types of mangoes, star fruit, and coconuts from the property. We also loved having Choco (the sweetest guard dog) hang out with us every day. Jose is more than helpful. He drove and led us down into town to find where we could get our Covid tests. Jose is very kind. If we come back to Costa Rica with a large group, we will be staying at this home again. The only negative was the pothole road to the house and the home was a little further from Quepos than we had expected. But worth every pothole! There are two small markets just a few minutes down the road where you can buy basic needs and some groceries (including the local rum) ;-)

Absolutely amazing property!!! Our family had a wonderful time, the pool is amazing, the view is even better!! Jose was great also!

We absolutely loved our time at the Toucan Garden Villa! You are truly in a world of your own with an incredible view and plenty of property to explore around and enjoy. We loved the amenities of the pool, ping pong and the pool table - it made for so many fun days where a big group had plenty to do together. The location is a bit further from restaurants and bigger stores, but completely worth the extra drive time. The staff was so helpful and great to work with!

Amazing views with ample space and a great pool!  Just a short ride to Quepos and the grocery store. We enjoyed making multiple meals in the outdoor kitchen/dining area. Jose, the caretaker, was awesome and a great communicator!  We would definitely go back.

The privacy and beauty of this property can not be overstated. The rooms are very spacious and clean. Every kitchen item we needed during our stay is already there. Safety is taken care of with a guard on-site who maintains guest privacy, first and foremost. There were no concerns of this nature during our stay. My wife and I were both able to log in and work without any connection issues. Working poolside with views of Manuel Antonio National Park and the Pacific Ocean was relaxing and somehow made work seem tolerable. We highly recommend this property to anyone wanting to enjoy Quepos and all things around it while wanting to get away from the standard tourist areas when the day was done. On that note, its only a 15 minute drive to Quepos. We found that to be perfect. The on-site property management team is beyond great and is highly responsive from booking through the entire stay. Thank you, Jose!

There were six of us vacationing at the villa. We flew into San Jose March 26, and returned home April 4, 2021. We stayed at the Hampton Inn overnight( excellent hotel). We made arrangements with Jose, the villa concierge, to have a driver pick us up at 10:00 am. Marco, our driver, is recommended by Jose, and we used his taxi company to take us to all of our destinations. He is always on time with comfortable vans , and a cooler of chilled water as well. It is $200 for the ride to the villa which includes a stop to view crocodile under a bridge , and a stop for lunch along the way. The drive is over three hours. There is an airport closer to the villa, but we traveled in March of 2021 when airlines had decreased flights due to COVID-19. Upon arrival at the villa we were greeted by Jose who gave us a tour of the house and grounds explaining all amenities. We enjoyed the pool every day. One afternoon a group of monkeys were seen in the trees. The beds, with ample pillows, were comfortable. The kitchen comes equipped with everything needed. I would recommend the owners take inventory of the pots, and pans eliminating the excess. 6000 sq. ft. offers room for everyone to enjoy their own space. There is a nature trail on the property. We started on our walk and the gardener came as well to clear the trail if need be. As I said, we traveled during Covid-19 restrictions. Costa Rica is open for tourism, but be aware of requirements. We were required to purchase travel insurance: Trip cancellation, medical, and minimal $2000 for room/board if positive test. Two adults age 60+ came to around $175.00. Print a copy to carry with you. Costa Rica Departmemt of Tourism site has government recommended insurance companies listed as well as up to date COVID-19 requirements. Fill out Health form. Take a screenshot once completed. You have to show this multiple times even after passing security. Finally, take a COVID test 72 hours before your return flight to the US. $80, or $150 each. Depending on the type of test you choose. Pros: Everything needed for a memorable vacation. Villa comes complete with high chair, and playpen for the babies. Cons: Long drive from the main airport in San Jose, but there are closer airports.

we really enjoyed staying in this villa. the home is beautiful inside and the view is even better. our family had a great time !!! Thank you

Thanks Gonen, we are glad you enjoyed your time and look forward to hosting you again! Teri

This place is fantastic! We loved it. The views are incredible. Looking out over the rainforest, the ocean in the distance, the crazy amazing number of birds, it was beyond compare. The house is extremely clean and comfortable,  the pool is large and lovely and sparkling clean.  Jose was helpful, warm, and an overall great host. We will be back as soon as we can and it will not be soon enough. I wish I could give Toucan Garden Villa 10 stars.

The house is very beautiful, comfortable and quite spacious. We went with several teenagers and each one is great, because it has everything you need to have a good time. The pool is delicious and they have a lot of games for entertainment. Besides this, the person in charge Don Jose is extremely responsible, he responds super quickly and is extremely kind.

Great place with everything you need to disconnect and relax, get an SUV if possible as part of the road is rough (around last 4 km)

I loved this house. I recommend it to anyone. It's great for families or groups of friends. The view is unbeatable. The privacy is great. The pool is big, deep, and the temperature is ideal. The rooms are spacious, the bathrooms are very nice. Teri and her team have left details like pool toys, cloths, blocker, repellent, chips, liquor, movies, and board games ready to enjoy. They should definitely come to this house!!!

Me encantó esta casa. Se la recomiendo a cualquiera. Es ideal para familias o para grupos de amigos. La vista es inmejorable. La privacidad es genial. La piscina es grande, profunda y la temperatura es ideal. Los cuartos son espaciosos, los baños muy bonitos. Teri y su equipo han dejado detalles como juguetes de piscina, paños, bloqueador, repelente, chips, licor, películas y juegos de mesa listos para disfrutar. Definitivamente deberían de ir a esta casa!!!

Toucan Garden Villa is stunning, the grounds are gorgeous and the house had everything we needed.  Beautifully set up, great facilities and spacious enough for us all to not feel crowded. Jose was a really fantastic host, very responsive and helpful with organizing activities for us in the area. Manuel Antonio and Quepes are about 20-30 minutes drive away, but the setting of the house is so beautiful that it didn't matter. You definitely need your own vehicle while staying here . I was there with my extended family, 10 people, covering 3 generations and we all had a fantastic time.  We literally couldn't of had a better family holiday and really hope to come back again

This place is so great! Has everything you need to enjoy a good party with family and friends, and more! House is fully equipped. The view and the pool are very cool. Oh! The beds are very comfortable.

Great place, amazing view, house is wonderful. Bit far from Manuel Antonio

A perfect home big everything you need and more,you get to see the toucans .and the pool gorgeous
