What a relaxing and wonderful time we had at Villa Tiquicia! Jeff was out of the country during our stay, but he still made sure we had everything we needed and provided us with wonderful recommendations for activities and restaurants. Oscar was absolutely amazing and quickly felt like family. He has the most incredible stories and shared so much knowledge about Costa Rican culture and life. We learned so much from him! He connected so easily with my three sons, whether they were talking about different genres of music, video games, or food. It truly felt like we were spending our vacation with another family member. Oscar went above and beyond to make our stay special, and his beautiful spirit made our experience even more memorable. Thank you, Jeff, for being such a wonderful host and for sharing your lovely home with us. And a very special thank you to Oscar for your kindness, your stories, your guidance, and for making us feel so welcome.

We’ve struggled with what to write because nothing can justly communicate the incredible memories and the unique experiences created on this trip.  First and foremost, Oscar was a wonderful host-gracious, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and kind.  We didn’t count on learning so much about Costa Rican culture and history and are so thankful that we did.! The stories Oscar told and the history he relayed to us during our car rides made the experience of being in another country that much more complete.  He stopped at a local fruit stand for rambutans for my daughter and helped find local fishing spots for my son.  We loved that he brought us to a less crowded beach, where we enjoyed a surf lesson and playing in the waves. Oscar, you definitely are 10/10 with our family! Thank you so much for everything! Lastly, the house is beautiful! We enjoyed the pool and there is wildlife everywhere, iguanas, frogs, geckos, toucans and monkeys. Waking up to titi monkeys on your porch is priceless!

Oh my gosh, Kak. Thank you so much for the beautiful review. Your personal note gave me goosebumps it was so nice. I am so pleased that we made your foreign experience a comfortable one. We strive to make our guests feel safe, relaxed and well cared for. I am happy to hear we succeeded.

This is the place to stay in Quepos!! Jeff is super responsive and helped us with tours and restaurant recommendations.  The house is even better in person!  It is the perfect location for visiting the area.  Our driver, Oscar, was awesome! We now have a friend for life in Costa Rica.  Do not delay...pick this place for your next stay in Quepos!  My family and I have visited over 30 countries and stayed in numerous AirBnbs all over the world.  Jeff's place is hands down the best airbnb we have ever stayed in.  Do not delay....pick this place if you plan to visit Quepos!

Wow! Thank you so much. I truly hope you come back so I can meet you in person.  I seriously enjoyed planning with you.

BOOK THE VACATION! I will forever be comparing every vacation to our stay in quepos with Oscar. Jeff was unavailable during our stay but we absolutely adore Oscar. Jeff was always available to help with change in plans with excursions but Oscar was with us during our 10 day stay. We consider Oscar our friend now and will remain in contact with him for hopefully many years to come. We loved the house and all of the wildlife. BOOK THE TOUR WITH BEATRIZ BOTH DAY AND NIGHT. She is incredible and we learned so much. The ATV was a highlight of our trip (me, husband and three sons ages 15,14 and 9). The horse bike riding was great. We also loved the river rafting. We also loved zip lining. Visit all of the beaches. We loved playing in the waves and also snorkeling. Our best foods were the authentic meals during the excursions. Best dinner was definitely Ronny’s place. Just book the trip. You won’t regret it. We enjoyed it so much, we want to return next summer. 🥰

Thank you so much!! I only wish I could have been there to meet you in person. The next time we definitely will.

Even before we arrived, Jeff helped to recommend, plan, schedule, & reserve all tours for us.He even included a list of local restaurants. As we made our selections, he created a daily itinerary for us on a Google Doc.He was friendly, extremely helpful, & offered great suggestions for local tours and restaurants. The house included a guide that picked us up & dropped us off wherever we wanted to go while we were there including to and from the airport that was 3 hours away.Jeff was out of the country, so he asked Oscar to be our guide. In addition to driving us everywhere, Oscar was our guide.He had a wealth of knowledge about music, history, and the plants and animals of Costa Rica.He was incredibly warm & friendly & we all felt really comfortable with & genuinely liked him.The house is located right in the rain forest. It looks beautiful in the pictures, but we all agreed that it is more beautiful in person & you can drink coffee & watch tropical birds right on the balcony.

The house was amazing, and it exceeded our expectations. Jeff was great at making sure all of our questions were answered and that our experience was a positive one from beginning to end. Óscar was a great addition to the trip, and we enjoyed his company on the car rides and his knowledge and enthusiasm regarding many aspects of Costa Rica and its history. I highly recommend this location, especially if you love experiencing birds and wildlife in a beautiful setting.

Villa Tiquicia was larger than expected and was well appointed with everything you could need. The home is in a safe area with tremendous views. Jeff coordinated activities prior to our arrival (thanks Jeff!) and even arranged for “Oscar” to be our chauffeur/concierge for us as Jeff happened to be away during our stay. We cannot express how fortunate we feel to have had Oscar with us for the week of our stay! Oscar made traveling with our young daughters so stress free and safe; he is so fun to be around, kind, patient and we learned SO MUCH from him about Costa Rica. Oscar went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time. Villa Tiquicia and Costa Rica are wonderful but our vacation was made AMAZING by Oscar for sure, it was like visiting your cousin at a new place and they know all the cool local spots to take you, the good food to eat and interesting things to take in while you are there. Oscar, thank you for taking such good care of my family! Jeff, thank you for hosting!

Thank you so much. Please do come again. I’m glad you enjoyed having Oscar. It was the first time I ever used his services.

We had the most amazing stay at Villa Tiquicia. Our experience was unforgettable!  Jeff’s engaging personality kept us feeling right at home and every recommendation was spot on.  He made reservations for our group, helped order takeout pizza, brought us to the most beautiful beach, and showed us the best shops. His perfect Spanish made everything flow with ease. It was so nice being able to relax and not drive. We saw just as much wildlife sitting on the balcony drinking coffee as we did during our tour of Manuel Antonio National Park- however don’t miss out on his recommendation of Beatrice to guide you through the park. Clean, spacious and cozy. Perfect way to finish our first (but definitely not last) trip

Thank you so much! I truly enjoyed your family and your friends’ families. I do hope you return. There is so much still to see and do here. Maybe you’ll all come and stay at my neighbors’ houses. Such a fun group you were. I look forward to seeing you again.

I can't imagine a better way to vacation in Costa Rica than this. I simply can't understate the value of having a built-in event planner, translator, guide, facilitator, and driver in Jeff. The word "concierge" simply isn't comprehensive enough. Not only is he an absolutely stellar person, but he effortlessly meshed with my family to enhance our experience. He taught us about the culture, environment, wildlife, and more. I would have paid way more knowing now what value we got from Jeff's partnership on our journey. The adventures that he arranged for us were high-end and affordable. The nighttime jungle tour with Beatriz is a must, who knew porcupines are bioluminescent w/ a UV flashlight! The home is a is spacious, comfortable, well stocked, clean and visited consistently by ALL kinds of wildlife. Squirrel Monkeys, macaws, toucans, sloths, and many more. The pool is the icing on the cake. Don't hesitate, book it. We will miss Jeff and Costa Rica. Pura Vida my friends.

Wow. Thank you so much. I am nearly speechless and you know how seldom that is. Haha. I’m so happy you enjoyed your trip.  Please do come again.

Usually, i'm terrible about taking the time to leave a review, but I have to in this case!  Jeffrey was such a wonderful host and his house is perfect!  I don't know what our family would have done without him - certainly our experience in Manuel Antonio would have not been so easy and streamlined.  Having him to set up our fun experiences and get us around made everything so easy!  He is a local who everyone loves.  We could feel that wherever we went.  We were able to go to a little boutique hotel's beach b/c he has connections there and he even asked one of his friends (female) at the mangrove experience (sweet family run business) about a nail place for my daughter and I!  Ha!  Was not on our plan but we carved out time for that b/c Jeffrey made it so easy.  He is fun and genuine and has great stories - we loved having him join us for  a few dinners and made our ride to the airport even entertaining!  The house, the pool, all of it - perfect!  Definitely recommend!

Thank you so much. You’ve left me speechless and when people know me, they know I’m rarely speechless. Haha. Please do come again.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this experience. Our family of 5 (kids ages 11-13), had an absolutely unforgettable stay. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The home itself was immaculate, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we could possibly need. What truly set this experience apart, however, was Jeff! Having him was an absolute game changer and worth every penny. From the moment we booked, he reached out with a warm welcome and provided fantastic recommendations for activities & restaurants. He handled all the planning and reservations seamlessly. Having Jeff as a concierge/chauffeur made this the easiest, most stress-free trip we’ve ever taken. Every suggestion he made was spot-on, and everything exceeded our expectations. Our family was able to simply relax and enjoy our time together. We wouldn’t change a thing and highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a smooth, memorable getaway!

Thank you so much. Having wonderful guests like you and your lovely family makes my job a true joy. You are welcome any time at Villa Tiquicia.

Could not imagine better experience for first-time CR visitors. Jeff’s unique role as host/translator/event planner/chauffeur/advisor is priceless! We LOVED every minute of our stay

Thank you very much. I truly enjoyed your group.

It’s hard to put into worlds how special our trip was to us. And it was all thanks to Jeffrey. He won’t call himself a “guide”, but he is. From the moment he picks you up to the moment he drops you off, you will be treated to the best CR has to offer. He knows the people, the places to recommend, the history, and he has created a lodging experience that is incredibly beautiful. We travelled with 2 kids age 7 and 10, mom, and Grandma, and this house suited everyone’s needs. You will see all sorts of majestic wildlife while you sip coffee next to the pool. Thank you Jeffrey for an experience we will never forget! We will be back! Pure Vida!!!! 🩷

You know that we love it here since it is our second time to visit! Jeff is an EXCEPTIONAL host who is extremely knowledgeable about Costa Rica and is more than happy to answer all of your questions and offer great stories about the region and his experiences. If you’re worried about the language barrier, don’t be! Jeff is a retired Spanish teacher and he was extremely helpful navigating the way for four guest who knew very little to no Spanish. We hung at the beautiful pool on several days of our stay with the most beautiful views. But make sure you do many of the activities Jeff has suggested, especially Isla Tortuga. You won’t be disappointed, trust me! Thank you Jeff for another wonderful stay. You just can’t top his service. We will be back again!

Thank you so much. I am looking forward to your return.

The house is very comfortable, clean, and thoughtfully stocked, with beautiful plantings and a magnificent view from the poolside patio. In the mornings, we'd sit outside with coffee and listen to the birdsong; Titi monkeys would sometimes visit us in the late afternoon; and the sunsets over the ocean are extraordinary. As someone who usually prefers DIY travel, I was apprehensive about being able to set our own pace and have privacy--but my apprehension was unfounded! Jeff, our host/concierge/driver, is exceptional--thoughtful, helpful, flexible, easygoing, and resourceful. His excitement to share his adopted country with his guests, his help creating our itinerary (including a night tour with a naturalist, a massage therapist, whitewater rafting, vanilla tour...), and his sensitivity made our two weeks there wonderfully relaxing and fun. Highly recommend! Pura vida!

Thank you so much. It was truly a pleasure to meet you and get to know you and your husband and friends.

BEST FAMILY TRIP Ever! First time booking an Airbnb. Prior to confirming the reservation, Jeff was very responsive to all my questions which finalized our decision to book the day prior to arrival. From the moment he picked us up from the airport, we knew we were in good hands! He accommodated all requests and most importantly, he listened. Per our conversation while driving to the Airbnb I stated “ we like blending in with the locals”. Every meal, every place, every restaurant, every excursion, every recommendation was PERFECT. We invited him to join us when we dined out every day. We also hiked to the waterfalls together and learned so much about CR. He became part of my family during our stay! After two successful days of inshore and deep sea fishing, we barbecued the fresh fish we caught and Jeff joined us for our last meal at the Airbnb. He even made a native dessert dish that we truly enjoyed! Jeff is the reason my family had an amazing week! Heartfelt Thank You!

Aww. You guys are too nice. Thank you very much. It was a pleasure to be your host.

Villa Tiquicia is a beautiful home with stunning views of the jungle, copious wildlife (monkeys, macaws, iguanas), and quick access by car to the beach and all the amenities and attractions of Manuel Antonio, the gem of Costa Rica. The pool is beautiful on the super nice patio, the bedrooms are big & comfortable, and the kitchen is fully equipped. The home comes with a concierge & chauffeur in Jeff, a New Jersey expat who resides in a separate living unit on the same property. Jeff embodies the best of both American and Hispanic culture: proactive, communicative, and service-minded, as well as a great attitude, fun personality, and tireless work ethic. You can rent your own car, but we were only happy to be picked up at the airport and escorted around by Jeff. He knows all the best places to go and activities to book, he'll outline a trip itinerary, he'll set up the tent & chairs at the beach, and he even helps pick up takeout and pharmacy items if needed.

Thank you so much. I truly appreciate your kind words. Namaste.

This house is a wonderful house to stay in. We enjoyed every minute we were there.

Thank you so much. I do hope you come back while I’m here.

All good lots of steps need 4 wheel drive to get to house when pavement wet

The code was not wrong. You misread it. Our housekeeper keeps a spotless house. You refused her services which would have helped get rid of the smell of smoke and fish you left in the house.

Jeffery's home is quite the special home. We didn't have to go to a national park because we were visited by spider, squirrel monkeys with their babies on their backs, macaws, toucans, and capybaras. The home was very spacious for our family of 5 and offered so many outside options from most of the rooms. We will return!!

Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it and the wildlife cooperated. haha

Jeffrey was a great host. The property is beautiful and offers a great view with lots of wildlife - monkeys, iguanas, macaws, frogs, lizards etc. that you can see around the property. The property exceeded our expectations and we would rate this as one of our best vacations. Being in another country and not having to worry about driving was a big plus. Jeff picked us up at the airport and for the duration of the stay there provided recommendations for restaurants, booked the activities, and ensured we felt comfortable and at home. We would absolutely visit again and highly recommend this property.

Our family of 6 (3 kids aged 11 and 1 kid age 5) had an incredible experience in Costa Rica. The house, adventures, and food he suggested were amazing.  We loved seeing all the wildlife right outside our balconies.  Jeffrey took all the stress of planning and traveling away.  He not only took us to all of our activities,  but also helped get us checked in.   We had an incredible 9 days! Pura Vida!

Thank you so much. It was a joy helping your family to have a great vacation.

Our stay was perfect. I chose this house  based on the availability of Jeff as driver and concierge and it was absolutely the right call. I could not have been more thankful to see him waiting there as we exited the airport. Figuring out a rental and the long drive after 12 hours of travel would have been rough, instead Jeff chatted and made stops for smoothies, scenic overlooks and groceries. He was very flexible, accommodating and helpful the entire time we were there. The house was comfy with lovely patio views. Jeff encouraged  two beautiful macaws to join us one morning with sliced bananas. He recommended a wonderful private chef and biologist guide for the park. The location of the home was central to all of our activities and LOTS of places to eat. I can’t recommend this house more.

Jeff is absolutely amazing and the place is stunning. I can not say enough great things about our stay here. Jeff welcomed us with open arms as friends with some amazing home cooked food. We had a little accident and had to pivot some of our itinerary and he was so accommodating. He came up with different unique ideas to do that made our vacation absolutely amazing. If he ever expands to other countries or we go back to costa rica in the future will definitely book with him.

Thank you so much. It was a pleasure getting to know your family.

Jeffrey made our really great trip ah-mazing.  He was so easy to work with, extremely communicative and very friendly, always going above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy each day.  Everything he suggested was perfect. We were sad to leave but SO happy we were able to come and enjoy the beautiful place that Costa Rica is and all the fun excursions in and around the area. Pura Vida!  We can't wait to come back.

From the moment we arrived, everything about our stay was truly magical. The home was beautiful, clean, and nestled right in the heart of the jungle—yet still close to beaches, restaurants, and activities. The wildlife was beyond anything we imagined—we saw monkeys, sloths, toucans, and even scarlet macaws right from the balcony! But what truly made this trip unforgettable was Jeff. He went above and beyond to make our experience seamless and unforgettable. From arranging transportation and excursions to giving us the best local tips and planning out our whole itinerary, Jeff was the ultimate host. His attention to detail and genuine hospitality made us feel completely at home in paradise. We can’t recommend this place enough. If you’re thinking about visiting Manuel Antonio, book this Airbnb—you won’t regret it. Thank you for the memories, Jeff!

Thanks you so much. I’m glad Miguel was able to take care of the driving for you while I was away.

Excellent stay!  The house was in a beautiful setting, we sat by the pool every morning and watched scarlet macaws flying through the jungle.  The house itself was immaculately clean and well appointed, we did a lot of our own cooking using the kitchen and outdoor grill, were in the pool daily, and relied on the AC units to keep it cool in the hot weather.  While the house and setting were great, the real highlight of the trip was Jeffrey, our host and driver for the week.  Jeff picked us up an San Jose and was flexible with the time.  He drove us back to Quepos, about three hours, and acted as our tour guide as well - telling us about the geography, flora/fauna, culture, language, and other information about Costa Rica - and answered tons of questions.  Once we arrived at the house Jeff was a great host ensuring we had what we needed and providing excellent recommendations and transportation.  He recommended a spectacular beach, beautiful catamaran cruise, and night tour.  All great!

Jeffrey is the consummate host/concierge. The luxury of having a driver with this house made our stay completely stress free. The home is well furnished and has all of the amenities that one would expect. Split a/c units are in all of the bedrooms and main living area.

We cannot say enough about how amazing Jeff and Villa Tiquicia are. He really is the full service guy. From picking us up at the airport, to helping us pick restaurants, to planning excursions for us, to grocery shopping with us to help with the language barrier and finding items (he even had reusable bags and bagged our groceries for us!), to setting up a tent and chairs on the beach for us...he really goes above and beyond. It was so awesome to have a driver for the whole trip. Costa Rican drivers are crazy and the roads can be treacherous. It made it so much more of a vacation to not have to drive anywhere or stress about parking. He is one of the kindest men you'll ever meet and is always there if you need something. He's thought of everything to make your stay feel like home. The home is beautiful, but THE POOL was our favorite spot. Gorgeous view, perfect temp water...our favorite place to spend afternoons. Jeff and his home are worth every last penny!  Our favorite AirBNB ever!

This was such a wonderful vacation! The place was spacious and lovely I was amazed at the wonderful variety of birds we spotted on our trip. First day saw a toucan in a tree right on the property! Can’t say enough good things about Jeff. Friendly, cheerful and great driver He had such good suggestions on places to go when we wanted to go on excursions We went to the beach one day and he actually raked the area and then set up a big tent for us with chairs and a table Felt very pampered and relaxed, perfect vacation!!!

Thank you so much, Lynne. I actually enjoy making people happy and I’m glad you left with pleasant memories. You’re always welcome at Villa Tiquicia.

The concierge service is something I have never encountered before.  Jeff is not just there for information, he is there to make ABSOLUTELY certain that my trip went perfectly.  From airport pickup, carrying my luggage (what a blessing!) making our reservations for EVERYTHING we wanted, to setting up a day by day itinerary.  (which makes a nice keepsake!  A diary of sorts!) The most impressive part for me was his knowledge of the language and the money, which I was completely lost at.  Not to mention his knowledge of the culture and the activities.  They all knew him and shook his hand, which was good for us 😉! Highly recommend!  Thanks, Jeff!

Thank you Catherine. You are always welcome at Villa Tiquicia. It was a pleasure hosting you and Frank.

Five stars isn’t enough for this top notch AirB&B. Gorgeous ocean sunset views, abundant jungle and wildlife, and total luxury with an infinity pool, balconies, fully stocked kitchen and jacuzzi. The best part is the personal concierge and driving services that come with the house. Jeff freely shares his local knowledge, books tours, drives, translates, and goes above and beyond to ensure an amazing visit. If you want to watch macaws fly by while sitting in an infinity pool overlooking the ocean sunset view while someone coordinates all your tours and then drives you, then look no further.

Thank you so much! Good luck on the rest of your journey and I’ll see you around Quepos.

This was by far the best experience I’ve ever had at an Airbnb and I’ve stayed at many. Jeff was the reason. He was flexible and accommodating and set up all of our activities making this a hassle-free vacation. Communication was superb before, during, and after our trip. Every activity, restaurant, shopping experience were spot on as he tailored our stay based on our likes/dislikes. The house itself was beautiful and super clean with a spectacular view from the infinity pool. This house has everything you need for your stay. Perfect for anyone who’s just looking to relax. Several restaurants in the area to satisfy anyone’s taste and affordable. Jeff was a perfect host who assisted with communicating with the locals and sharing his vast knowledge of everything Costa Rica. We will definitely be back!!!

Thank you so much. I look forward to your return.

This was the vacation of a lifetime, and we have our host, Jeffrey, to thank for it. This place is everything it appears to be: gorgeous, comfortable, and situated in the rainforest. Jeffrey's services as a guide and a host are above and beyond anything you might expect. He made the itinerary for our trip, connecting us with a wonderful guide for the national park and once-in-a-lifetime experiences, like the Monkey Mangrove Tour and Rainmaker Park. On our second trip to Rainmaker Park (where we swam in natural pools and waterfalls), Jeffrey accompanied us on the trail and pointed out a poison dart frog we never would have noticed but were thrilled to see and photograph. Jeffrey also went out of his way to make sure my 44th birthday celebration was perfect. Having a driver saved us so much stress and confusion. Seeing monkeys on the porch of the house was beyond delightful. Really, this trip was incredible, and this place is so wonderful. Just book it.

Thank you so much. I’m glad you enjoyed your stay at Villa Tiquicia. It was a pleasure getting to know you while we drove around.

BOOK IT!  These reviews are true and honest.  Even after reading these, you will find that this house, and the services provided by Host Jeff, exceed expectations. The house is large, clean and comfortable. (We were 3 couples.) We spent a lot of time enjoying the outside spaces, watching monkeys, toucans, macaws and many others in the trees.  The sunsets were outstanding. Jeff arranged for us to enjoy ziplining, as well as tours of a National Park, monkeys in the mangrove, and a vanilla/chocolate/coffee farm. Relaxing at the beach at Manuel Antonio NP was an unplanned and fantastic day. Jeff’s services as reservation-maker, chauffeur, and interpreter are invaluable. We were planning our return before we left.

Thank you Mary. No, I didn’t know the LR AC dripped. That means there is a drainage tube that is blocked and since I just had them serviced, that should not be the case.

We spent our first vacation in Costa Rica at Jefferey’s  place and it did not disappoint. The location was incredible, close to many different tours, activities, restaurants and the house itself was immaculate. It is hard to describe the experience, waking up to monkeys in the trees, birds and wildlife in every which direction! Jefferey was an incredible host and made sure we felt right at home, even coordinating a chef to cook us a delicious meal one night. After traveling far to get there (we’re from the northeast US), it was well worth every minute of our trip. If you’re looking for a home away from home, in paradise, this is it!

If I could give this place 10 stars I would! You never really know what to expect when you rent a place after reading other reviews...but this experience lived up to everything we imagined and then some! The great experience started MONTHS before we arrived. I traveled with my two sons (18 & 20) and we had a pretty good idea of what we wanted to do once we got to Costa Rica. We chose Quepos because my son LOVES fishing and Quepos is the Sportfishing capital of the world (who knew?). I did tons of research and chose the fishing charter but we wanted to several other things - ATVs, zipline, national park tour, mangrove tour, and more.  I told Jeff what we were looking to do and he booked EVERYTHING! He was literally at our beck and call the whole time and it was amazing. As a single mom of two boys traveling to a country where we don't speak the language, we felt so SAFE and well taken care of. Whatever we wanted, he delivered. I could write forever but bottom line...BOOK THIS PLACE!

Our stay was incredible, thanks largely to Jeff! Initially, he was just supposed to be our chauffeur, but he quickly became a friend and part of our family trip. Jeff went above and beyond—he wasn’t just our driver but also our tour guide, store runner, bodyguard, and all-around amazing companion. Traveling as five girls, we felt completely safe and cared for with him around. Jeff showed us hidden gems of Costa Rica we’d never have discovered on our own, making this one of our most memorable trips. We’re already planning to return and recommending Jeff to all our friends and family! The house itself was stunning, with an amazing infinity pool and breathtaking views. It was exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and in excellent condition. A highlight was the two types of monkeys that visited us multiple times during our stay—such a magical experience! If you’re visiting Costa Rica, staying at this house and booking Jeff is a must. You won’t regret it!

Thank you so much. I truly enjoyed the company of you and your family. Your wonderful review is greatly appreciated.

Our stay at Jeffery’s place was nothing short of magical. He took all of the pressure off of me as the planner of a blended family, multigenerational trip. He thought of absolutely everything we needed and was always available when we needed him. The driving in and of itself made our trip…but then the beautiful location, house, and pool was icing on the cake!  Jeffery was so patient and kind to our whiny children and is so knowledgeable about the area and all there is to see and do. He assisted us with planning great excursions, finding great food, and helping us plan a little birthday celebration with a private chef. Chef Glenda was so great, we hired her twice! Many thanks to Jeffery for a worry free trip! We cannot wait to return!

Staying at Jefferey’s place was everything I dreamed of and more! It was just my young daughter and I. I haven’t traveled out of the country since I was a child - now I’m in my 40s. Having somebody to count on for guidance for something minor (a dinner suggestion) and major (a needed hospital visit for a medical problem) was really priceless! I really had nothing to worry about so everything was that more enjoyable. Jefferey is a “local” yet also from the US so it’s the best of both worlds in a guide. The house is amazing as the layout allows you to fully observe the outside garden from all rooms- including while walking the staircase. The house was so clean it felt clean all week. The garden is breathtaking and I purposefully spent time in my day to enjoy it.

Thank you so much Betsy. You and your daughter are always welcome at Villa Tiquicia. I also enjoyed having you here.

We absolutely loved our stay! Jeff was amazing! He went above and beyond to make sure that we enjoyed every moment, and the house and location were incredible.  We can not say enough good things about the entire experience.  If you are thinking about staying here, stop thinking and just do it! The highlight of our trip for sure!!

Such a perfect place to stay! The view was beautiful and the place was the perfect size for our family! The pool and multiple balconies had beautiful views and plenty of opportunities to see wildlife (monkeys, macaws, toucans, and so much more)!  Our week felt so carefree because we knew we wouldn’t have to worry about getting from place to place. Jeff was very responsive and was always ready to pick us up and drop us off wherever we needed! He had great recommendations of any activities or restaurants to fit our groups wants and needs. He also helped us to plan an itinerary and suggested a variety activities for us! I would highly recommend staying here!!

Thank you so much, Mary. I truly enjoyed hosting your family.

Jeffrey was awesome. We took our grandkids and he was great with them.

Thank you. You have some pretty awesome grandkids.

This place is the REAL DEAL!! I can’t say enough about the home, pool And property as it’s all outstanding but the real gem is Jeff !! He made our trip absolutely extraordinary ❤️🎉 From greeting us at the airport to his delicious morning pancakes and everything in between the service he provides are top notch and unparalleled …..second to none ! I’m a traveler that prefers luxury and this place exceeded all our expectations 🙂🇨🇷 We will definitely go back and his place Is worth twice what they charge honestly for all the perks / benefits you get. Three words for the wise : JUST BOOK IT

Ashley, thank you so much. It was such a pleasure to meet you all. I do hope you’ll come back.

We stayed at Jeff’s Airbnb in June and had an amazing time. We were nervous coming to another country that we weren’t familiar with when we don’t speak the language. From the beginning of communicating with Jeff, he made everything easy. From listening to our interests, to planning our itinerary, everything was spot on. His recommendations for things to do and places to eat were great. He is as hands on or as hands off as you want him to be or need him to be. You take for granted little things like ordering ground beef from the grocery store. But Jeff is there if you need help with even the most simple things. The house was comfortable and the pool and view were amazing. We will definitely use this Airbnb if we ever return to this part of Costa Rica. Thank you Jeff for everything.

Thank you, Laura. That was very kind of you. I appreciate you taking the time to write such a nice review. I do hope you come again.

This house was great and so was Jeff! Such an amazing time for us and our kids!

We had the most wonderful time for our six-day stay! Jeff was absolutely incredible and the key to making our stay stress free. He was invaluable in making recommendations and helping plan activities, as well as help us learn and enjoy the area with his insider knowledge. He was very accommodating and always ready to provide what we needed.  Having him drive was the icing on the cake! Jeff's stellar reviews, the beautiful area and property and providing transportation were the reasons we chose to stay here, and if anything, our visit exceeded our expectations. We were a family of six, and Jeff was so good with my five- and seven-year-old grandchildren. They were thrilled to see the many insects, birds, monkeys and sloths. I wasn't sure my 7-year-old granddaughter was going to let go of Jeff's hand when he dropped us off! Jeff made us feel like a part of his family, and we recommend staying with him any time you are fortunate enough to do. Thanks ever so much Jeff!

Thank you very much for the kind words. Tell Thalia she can come back whenever she wants.

Our stay at Jeff’s beautiful home in the jungle was both exciting, adventurous and relaxing. Jeff was available for anything we needed and even reached out to us to see if we needed help setting up our daily excursion activities. The location of the house is stunning offering spectacular immersion into the beauty of the jungle while being convenient to Local places to eat and experiencing all the adventures of Costa Rica each day . My family and I were there in the beginning of the rainy season which offered the benefit of having engaging guides without the crowds. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to experience what it might be like to live in Costa Rica - and the benefit of having the gracious kindness and knowledge of the owner. Thank you Jeff, I hope to return and would definitely see if the house is available! Thanks again for helping to make our stay truly the trip of a lifetime!

Thank you for the kind words. I really wished I could’ve met you guys in person. Thanks again for all the great feedback and communication.

We had a great time. House was even more than we expected! We wanted a low key vacation with a few adventures mixed in and Jeff delivered!! He was such an attentive, flexible and friendly host. Every recommendation he made was spot on. It is a great advantage getting a house with a chauffeur. Pura Vida!!

Thank you Jean.  It was a pleasure having you here at the house.  I do hope you come again.

The house, overall property and Jeff are amazing! I can’t say enough about how comfortable and well equipped  the accommodations are. The pool was an amazing place to cool off and take in all the amazing wildlife that surrounds the property. Amazing activities, beaches and restaurants minutes away, yet you are tucked in privacy with all the sights and sounds of the jungle. Jeff takes all the stress of driving and figuring out where to go and how to get there away. His recommendations are spot on and he listens to your requests. You will not regret your stay here! A wonderful experience all around.

Thank you so much! I truly enjoyed driving with your family and it was so nice to see San José again. Take care and do come back.

Jeff was very kind and welcoming. He was very keen to ensure we had a great time. He had excellent restaurant recommendations. He provided some great trips and very smooth airport connections. The venue was excellent and very relaxing

Thank you! It was a pleasure hosting you and your beautiful family.

Jeff is an outstanding host and helped with everything we needed. His service and attention to detail made our vacation memorable. Our group of 8 people, were very comfortable and enjoyed all the local sights/excursions and the private pool. If you're planning a trip to Costa Rica and want to stay in a private location, this is a great place. We want to come back and visit again.

Thank you, Bill. I hope you do come visit again. Your friends were such a fun group.

It’s easy to see why Jeffrey is a Super Host.   He is knowledgeable, responsive, approachable and generally a terrific warm human.  Villa Tiquicia is a fabulous place.  While there are 2 neighboring homes, they are all built so you can’t see each other.  The property-as most are- is built into a hillside. The number of stairs required to get to the rental was at first a bit daunting but was easily adjusted to by all. Mattress were very comfortable, high quality towels and linens.  We cooked many meals and lacked for nothing in the beautiful kitchen.    But being at Villa Tiquicia felt more about being surround by the natural world than being indoors.  We all spent most of our time on the multiple porches and the front deck.  The pool is heavenly.     A real treat is the occasional visits by monkeys and listening and watching birds.   Can’t wait to revisit!   Very grateful for the chance to visit.

Thank you for the notes. I do hope you come again.

Wow. That’s the word that comes to mind on this Arbnb. Like as advertised it comes with a chauffeur that picks you up at the airport and takes you wherever you want to go. When my wife and I wanted an intimate dinner Jeffery would drop us off and then pick us up. When we wanted to learn more about Costa Rica we would invite him to stay. Jeffery is so knowledgeable about the area and helps with communication with the locals that lots of time we would invite him to join us. He is so flexible and very willing to meet our schedule. Just a great experience. Out of 25+ Arbnb experiences this one ranks on top. My whole family is talking about planning another trip to this places.

The only word I can come up with is INDESCRIBLE, 9 days in the Rainforest, the Country is just breath taking, lots of wildlife, and lastly we had the BEST host who met and took care of ALL our needs. Thank you Jeffery for an amazing experience & vacation!

Thank you, Terry. You and your friends are welcome at Villa Tiquicia any time. I truly enjoyed helping you plan your vacation and driving you and your friends around.

Two words about this place:  BOOK IT.  No need to search further.  House was wonderful and everything was as listed.  Great location though not within walking distance of anything.  But that does not matter as Jeffery will be there for you to take you promptly to anywhere you want to go in the area.  His knowledge of the area is priceless.  Where to eat, where to shop, tours to take, etc.  If your 1st time or even 10th time to Costa Rica you will have no worries from the time you step outside the airport when you arrive to when he drops you back off to fly home.  Wildlife all around the house as advertised.  Monkeys, macaws, toucans and all right at your location.  We were there 11 nights which was too short but long enough to hit our favorite restaurants twice during our stay.  It's the real deal and you will not be disappointed.  My wife is already wanting to go back.

Thank you so much. It was truly a pleasure getting to know you and your friends. I hope your wife gets her way and you do come back. The monkeys await. Haha.

This place is a dream! My mom and I had a 9 night stay at Villa Tiquicia. This was the perfect place for our first time in Costa Rica. We enjoyed waking up early each morning to watch the sunrise and the jungle come to life from the pool patio area. Jeff was a wonderful host! He helped us navigate the language barrier, book activities, drive us to our destinations, and gave us a ton of insider tips. He is a kind and attentive host and was a huge help when my mom got sick during our stay. He’s very knowledgeable about the area and Costa Rican culture. He’s happy to be as hands on or hands off as you need during your stay. The additional staff Eduoard (landscaper) and Magaly (housekeeper) were also kind and did a wonderful job. The property is in excellent condition and Jeff and his team are continually improving the space (landscaping, adding outdoor steps around the property, etc.) Highly recommend!

Everything at the place was as advertised.  House was perfect for our group of 7.  Jeffrey was very responsive and a great host and having him drive us to the beach was a great add on.  The house was great and we spent every sunset by the pool.  Our last day we saw a ton of monkeys at the house.  I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Every part of our stay was perfect!  The property is beautiful, the wildlife we saw there surpassed any tour and we were able to enjoy it all over coffee, leisurely.  Jeffery is truly the best host I have ever had.  Great recommendations, helped drive us around one day, and was available to us whenever we needed him.  He was even instrumental while we were planning the trip, before we had arrived.  5 star experience!!!

Thank you so much. You now know me and probably guess that I am rarely speechless. Haha. I truly appreciate your kind words.

Jeff was awesome!! He made recommendations that were perfect for us. We had an unbelievable experience and it wouldn’t have been so without Jeff and his planning and experience. He’s friendly with the locals so that made it even more special for my family!

Thank you, Leah. My job is so easy when people are as fun as your family. Please do come again. You’re always welcome at Villa Tiquicia.

This home is beautiful! Spacious and has everything you need for a home away from home. Jeff arrived at the airport to pick us up and stopped a couple of times on the way to the home. Only drawback was, there were 6 of us and there was not enough room for all of us and our luggage. So Jeff had a friend help by taking our luggage to the house in his car. Our first morning a pack of monkeys came to the kitchen window and the deck on the first floor to welcome us. They were SO cute! (And helped get our teenagers out of bed!) We spent a majority of our time in the pool but also enjoyed a game night inside. (They have games in the house for you) Jeff was fantastic. Anything we wanted to do, he was on board. He gave suggestions and helped us when we needed to rent a canopy and chairs at the beach. He also shared cookies and bread pudding he made. Our last morning the monkeys came back to say goodbye. This time there were at least 20 of them! We were all in heaven.

Thank you for the great review. That is extremely helpful. I appreciate it.

Jeffery is a responsive host. He gave us restaurant and local activity recommendations. We thoroughly enjoyed cooling off in the pool after a day of exploring and watching the sunset from poolside. It's a lovely property.

Jeffery’s home is spacious, clean, and well stocked. We enjoyed the pool while looking over the jungle spotting various animals; macaws, toucans, monkeys, iguanas. Jeffery was responsive and informative. Highly recommend!

Beautiful home with a peaceful surroundings, perfect place for family or friends vacation and Jeffery  was very helpful, definitely recommended 👌🏻

Jeffrey is an excellent host 🙌🏻First, always super communicative, he waited for us to arrive, even though we were late, he had a delicious lentil bedding that was simply spectacular.  He also called us budding like the one we had never tasted in our life…a great chef is Jeffrey😋.  Thank you for all your attention and always keep an eye out for us.  We had a great time 🙌🏻☺️

Jeffrey es un excelente host 🙌🏻Primero siempre súper comunicativo, nos esperó a que llegáramos, a pesar de que ingresamos tarde, nos tenía preparada una deliciosa sopita de lentejas que estaba sencillamente espectacular.  Nos chineó también con budin como el que nunca habíamos probado en nuestra vida…un gran chef es Jeffrey 😋.  Gracias por todas sus atenciones y por siempre estar pendiente de nosotros.  Lo pasamos genial 🙌🏻☺️

Muchas gracias, Martha. Era lo menos que podía hacer. Ustedes llegaron en su propio vehículo y yo no tenía nada que hacer. Jaja. Espero que regresen para hacer rafting en el Río Savegre. Les va a gustar.

Awesome vacation with the family. Beautiful, pristine home with great views and amenities. Days were filled with relaxation and daily excursions to the most beautiful sites. Jeff's suggestions and assistance in planning activities -and getting us there- made this family vacation an unforgettable experience. Already planning our return! Thank you, Jeff. Pura vida!

Thank you. It was a joy meeting your family. I’m looking forward to the return visit.

Wow! Where do I start? Jeffery was an awesome host! He was available all day and helped us tremendously! He took us everywhere we wanted to go and gave us several recommendations on things to do and places to eat! The house was amazing! We spent the majority of our time by the pool watching the makaws or playing with the monkeys (make sure you always have plenty of bananas available)! It was an amazing experience we will never forget!

Thank you so much. I appreciate the review. It was really fun getting to know you all.

Wow oh wow, where to even begin! Our trip started with Jeff communicating clearly where he would be waiting for us and an extremely clean and nice suv to drive us from SJO to the house. He even made sure to plan a stop halfway so everyone could get a bathroom break, get snacks and drinks, etc. He is so very kind, he purchased some local fruits for us to try and some sweet snacks for my boys to enjoy! Once we arrived to the home, Jeff was very informative about the amenities and the home. The home was spotlessly clean and fully stocked with whatever we needed through the week. We were fortunate to be able to see the Capuchino and Titi monkeys!!! What a mind blowing experience that was! The birds were gorgeous - macaws, toucans, and so many more. Being able to sit early morning poolside with coffee and listening to the birds was one of the most serene experiences. We cannot wait to go back, the home and Jeff truly felt like home away from home.

Thank you. It was a pleasure.  And your children were so respectful. What a joy to be with you guys.  Please do come back to Villa Tiquicia.

Jeff was the perfect concierge/host. His knowledge of the Costa Rican culture and events/tours that he suggested we visit were excellent.  The tours that we took had excellent guides who were very informed, friendly and more than willing to answer any questions. The restaurants Jeff suggested we visit gave us the opportunity to taste a variety of Costa Rican cuisine. I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone who would want to have an exciting visit in Costa Rica as it is centrally located near beaches, mangrove tours, white water rafting, parasailing, and more.

Hahaha. I think “the driver” is gonna stick. My nephew already started calling me “Mr. Driver.” Thanks again for all the good vibes.

We traveled to Costa Rica as a group of five—ranging from 11 years old to 70+ years young. Jeffrey was incredibly helpful negotiating activities (Boruca mask making at the house and chocolate tours),transportation, and dietary restrictions. He was responsive ahead of the visit and remained available throughout our stay. He was kind, flexible, helpful, and involved. His concierge services were exceptional and we had fun exploring Quepos with him. He was always up for an adventure and went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and having fun. The house was phenomenal—-mind blowing views, a constant stream of birds and wildlife, and amenities akin to the nicest AirBandBs we have enjoyed in the US. Jeffrey is very comfortable with the surrounding area and enjoys sharing his discoveries. He greets everyone in the area and works hard to have a working relationship with all of the vendors he works with—getting to know them as individuals as well as business owners

Thank you, Amanda. I really appreciate the kind words.  Your group was so fun. Especially the late night bartender. haha. Please come back to Villa Tiquicia any time!!

We loved our stay in Costa Rica. The house is amazing. So many animals visited during our stay. The kids loved the troop of monkeys that would stop by. We also saw iguanas, toucans and macaws. The pool was great for the kids and the house had everything we needed to feel at home. It is big enough that everyone had their own space which is good when traveling with preteens. Jeff is an amazing host. The trip would not have been nearly as much fun without his help! He helped us set up tours, recommended places to go, translated for us and drove us everywhere. This let us relax and enjoy the trip without stressing about how to get places. He even helped us get set up at the beach with an awning and chairs. He knows a lot of people in the area and will get you great service wherever you go! He is friendly, helpful and a great guy. If you are looking to visit the Manuel Antonio area this is the perfect place to stay.

Thank you Katie. I truly enjoyed hosting you and your wonderful family. Come back any time.

If you’re looking for wildlife and fantastic views all without leaving your pool, this is the place for you! When we did decide to explore, Jeff was a very knowledgeable host. Everything he recommended was amazing! He took away the stress of driving, parking, and stressful decision making. Villa Tiquicia was definitely the highlight of our trip! Thanks again Jeff!

Aww. Thanks Paige.  I truly enjoyed you and your friends. I do hope you can come again and stay longer.

We absolutely loved our stay at Jeff's place! We had a total of 5 adults and one toddler and we all fit comfortably in the home. We also took Jeff up on having him drive us around while we were there and that made our trip! He gave us great recommendations and local advice! It also made me feel more comfortable when our party split for a day. My sister, my toddler, and I relied on Jeff to take us around for the day. It was great to have the extra company! The home itself was beautiful and very comfortable. We really felt right at home! The pool was amazing and the views from the porch and all of the balconies were amazing! We've all said if we come back to Quepos, we're staying here again! Definitely a great find!!

What a wonderful place! There were four of us,  two adults, two kids, and we all loved it. The place was very spacious, so we all had our own space. The kitchen had everything needed to cook up some meals. The kids loved playing in the private pool. The grounds are filled with beautiful native plants, so you really feel like you are up in the jungle. We really enjoyed the troop of capuchin monkeys that visited and also the macaws that stopped by. Hearing the howler monkeys was also fun! Jeffery was a great host, super responsive and friendly. The place was clean and stocked with everything you could need. I would definitely stay here again!

Thank you, Heather. I do hope you come again so you can see the Tití Monkeys.

10/10 Recommended Beautiful decorations. A/C in every room and ceiling fans and they work great! Beautiful views and great durable furniture with a lot of seating areas. Several balconies throughout the house. Very spacious. Great washer and dryer. Lots of good quality bath towels and beach towels. Great showers with good water pressure and very hot water. Outdoor shower was a plus and a massive jacuzzi bathtub upstairs. All beds are very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Great tv’s with netflix and amazing wifi Tons of amenities: cooler, umbrellas, yoga mats, shampoo, soap, conditioner, salt & pepper, cooking spray, flashlights It was everything we needed and wanted. We planned to stay at the beach they whole time and ended up going once because it was way better to be at the house. Jeff was amazing to work with and responded immediately every time!

Thank you so much, Katie. Given how nice the beaches are in Manuel Antonio, that is a high compliment. You are always welcome at Villa Tiquicia. Please do come again.

We loved our stay! Daily visits from Toucans and  saw macaws In the distance. The pool was relaxing and offered great views. Only about 10 minutes from the entrance of manual Antonio Park and just a few minutes from plenty of restaurants. Jeffery helped with any questions we had. Perfect place for our crew of 7. Thanks!

Thank you, Megan. Please come again. You are always welcome at Villa Tiquicia.

This was by far the best vacation home we have had the privilege of staying in. From the initial booking, Jeff was responsive and extremely helpful with advice and recommendations. Even though this was his week off, he graciously offered to help us with transportation to the park and beaches. He met us at the bottom of his driveway to make sure that we found the house easily and walked us through a full tour to make sure that we knew where everything was. We felt at home instantly. The views all around the home and the sunsets from the infinity pool were immersive in the Costa Rican jungle experience. Of course, seeing a tucan knocking on the window and a troop of white faced capuchins as an early morning alarm clock are memories that our family will cherish forever - especially when these were the same monkeys we had watched in the national park just the day before. Jeff shared his tips on where to park, to shop, how to get the best deals, and how to best enjoy Pura Vida!

the house was beautiful with incredible views! For a group of eight, we had plenty of room. Jeff - the property manager, concierge, driver, and all around great guy - was incredibly helpful with tips, advice, history, biologist notes on birds and animals, and even brief bartending services! Jeff, you really added to our enjoyment of our time! BUT, the stars of the property were the birds and animals. Just sit and enjoy the amazing view and they all came to us: toucans, macaws, motmot, lizards, and monkeys! it was an amazing stay!

Thank you, Annie. That was really kind of you. I appreciate it. I hope you do come again and next time we’ll drive around together. I would have enjoyed getting to know you. What an interesting group you were.

Beautiful place. Jeffrey was very helpful with suggestions for places to eat. The monkeys visited our patio two different times! We saw macaws, toucans, and heard howler monkeys from the patios. We would recommend this place to anyone!

The property and location are beautiful. Great sunrise and sunset views and wildlife viewing equal to Manuel Antonio. The pool was very relaxing and the patio was a perfect place to enjoy the evenings and meals. The rooms are clean and well appointed. AC units are very responsive. The area offers many beaches, outdoor activities, restaurants, and wasn’t too touristy. Great for families. Finally, Jeffrey was an amazing host. He facilitated our activities and was extremely helpful in developing a personalized itinerary for the week. Not only did he provide helpful suggestions but was able to utilize his local connections help make the experiences memorable. He was extremely personable, conscientious, and accommodating and we learned much about Costa Rican culture and wildlife from him. The property itself is very good and with Jeffrey’s services the package is amazing!

The house was great. Amazing views of sunrise and sunset. Wildlife was easily found on the property. Jeff was awesome! He arranged our excursions,  drove us where we wanted to go, and helped translate. Would definitely stay here again

Jeff was incredibly helpful and made the trip. He drives you to and from the airport and around the Quepos area. We likely saved hundreds of dollars due to Jeff. One night, he even made dinner for our family when getting back late! And was helpful throughout getting food. The house is simply breathtaking. You have a private infinity pool overlooking the forest and the pacific. Just sitting by the pool, we saw monkeys, toucans, macaws and various other animals. On one of the days, we just stayed home and lay by the pool all day. No need to go anywhere. If you do want to go somewhere, Jeff can help there too. Getting us to the locations and often using his local knowledge to bring down the cost. Would highly recommend the beaches and the cruise to Isla Tortuga. The inside of the house is also superb. The master suite particularly was palatial and great for my wife and I to have some separation from the kids in the two great bedrooms downstairs. In summary: Just book this!

Thank you so much. Please do come again so you can have “a Jeff.” Hahaha

The value of having a Spanish-speaking, knowledgeable and friendly chauffeur to take you anywhere we wanted to go makes this rental an incredible value. We probably saved four figures on a car rental and shuttles; plus we didn’t have to drive the narrow and sometimes steep roads of CR. Jeffery was prompt to all our needs, and went out of his way to accommodate every request. The pictures don’t fully define the space; it is even better than the pics. The sunsets were a thing of beauty, and the bird fly-bys and monkey swing-bys were extraordinary. We will stay there our next visit to CR.

Thank you so much for the review. I truly appreciate it.

Cannot recommend booking this house more! The house is very nice, had every thing we needed. The monkeys came and visited every morning! It was so neat! We saw more animals at the house than anywhere else. The best part is having Jeff for recommendations and driving you around...he absolutely made the trip. As first timers to Costa Rica who spoke basically no Spanish, Jeff took all the stress of not knowing where we were going or how to communicate away. There's also an awesome waterfall you can hike to and jump off behind the house. Again, highly recommend!

The place is even better than the photos. So much space, a wonderful terrace and pool, so much nature to be seen from the villa. Jeffery was very helpful.  We were a group of 6 staying over New Year’s Eve, Jeffery and his friends cooked us a feast for NYE dinner! We had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend!

Villa Tiquicia was a slice of heaven. The house was as pictured. We had daily sightings of macaws in the distance, iguanas, the wildlife was bountiful. We were lucky enough to have two separate monkey encounters: Squirrel and Capuchin! The squirrel monkeys were a highlight for sure. Capuchin are a bit aggressive, but very entertaining. Heading to MA was delightful. The host packs and provides the necessities: beach chairs, large shade pop up and coolers! And he sets it up for you! He also provided transport/booking/and help with any and all adventures we wanted to do. Mangrove tour, zip-lining, full day boat trip to a Isla Tortuga. Possibilities are endless and Jeff was there to help at anytime. Including but not limited to picking up and bringing home some excellent fried chicken. Overall a wonderful experience!

Amazing views and the pool was a lot of fun for our two daughters. We enjoyed relaxing poolside. Jeff is really friendly and helpful. It was fun to see the birds and other wildlife. Lots of restaurants and activities nearby.

The accommodation is beautiful! The views are unparalleled! Additionally, Jeffery was attentive to us the whole time, a great but great host! We would definitely come back!

El Alojamiento es precioso! Las vistas son inigualables! Adicionalmente Jeffery estuvo todo el tiempo pendiente de nosotros, un gran pero gran anfitrión! Sin dudar volveríamos!

Muchas gracias Alejandro. Fue un gusto conocerlos.

Beautiful surroundings, peaceful, clean home. However, we were unable to use the jacuzzi tub due to the length of time it would take to fill and lack of warm water, but overall we enjoyed our time there.

Thank you for your feedback. The hot tub does require some patience to fill it.  It can hold four people and holds a lot of water. Recognizing that people on vacation might not want to wait, we are adding a separate heater to fill it with a separate boiler so it won't use the water from the hot water heater. The new heater will be installed this month and because it heats the water as it is needed, it will help to fill it faster.

This was by far the best Airbnb that we have ever stayed at and we've stayed in plenty. Where do I start!? This house and location was absolutely amazing! The house was clean, spacious, had everything we needed and we felt safe. Swimming in the pool looking out at that beautiful view of the rainforest was spectacular! The best thing for us was the squirrel monkeys. So cute! They came to visit us every single morning and afternoon for the three days that we were there. They were friendly and polite while looking for food lol Sometimes it was a family of 10 and one time it was a family of about 25 lol we saw parrots and macaws and heard howler monkeys! So much wildlife out there. The host Jeff was friendly, professional, informative and very helpful, great at communication and if you have any issues during your stay...he will tend to it quickly. The hill is steep to get up to the house so I'd recommend if you're renting a vehicle to get a 4x4 or at least a strong 4x2. Our 4x2 suv got up there but it was raining so it was a little slippery but we made it. When it wasn't raining then we had no issues at all. There are a few flights of stairs to get up to the house so if you have any leg or hip issues, that may be an issue. This will definitely be our go-to house when we are visiting the Manuel Antonio area of Costa Rica. It's the visiting monkeys for us!!! THANK YOU JEFF! 10 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thank you so much for the kind words. I truly hope you will come back to Villa Tiquicia. It was a pleasure talking with you and assisting you on your vacation. It's all about the Buena Vibra. Pura vida.

Amazing views and very comfortable accommodations. Jeffrey is a super host and a wealth of information!

Thank you, Meg.  It was a pleasure hosting you and your boys.  You are welcome any time here at Villa Tiquicia.

I call this place a luxurious tree house. A view of the jungle that i can never get tired of, A deep infinity pool, different animals visiting every day,  good space and good vibes. Beds and pillows are super comfortable. we were able to utilise kitchen fully. they have everything from coffee machine to pans/pots/silver ware. we cooked sometimes during our stay. Ofocurse you habe to bring your own grocery and spices. Supermarkets and restaurants are close by. Jeff is amazing host. He helped us to quickly accomodate to the place and gave all kinds of information about the area and things to do/eat. He drove us places and suggested good beaches. He even provided us tent and chairs for the beach. Language issues no problem we had Jeff translate it so it was veey helpful. we even did a Borucha mask with a tribal member which was amazing and fun. Overall my stay there was amazing and issue free. Kids also enjoyed Toucans, Macaus, Mr and Mrs Iguana , Monkeys and all kinds of birds and insects.  The only little inconvinience was that there were 50 steps to get to the house which is well worth it for the view. I will definitely return.

Thank you, Sri. I had a good time helping you with your vacation.  You and your family are welcome at Villa Tiquicia any time.

Very nice place, sitting in the pool or on the terrace, you can see the life of the jungle ( touches, hummingbirds, monkeys, parrots, etc.). It was great to go to Jeff's waterfall (just a short walk from the house). I highly recommend this home for anyone who doesn't want to rent a car in Costa Rica. Jeff will take you anywhere you want (no extra fees).Our plane was leaned for two hours, late at night, and Jeff was waiting for us at the flyer and drove us to the place. Thank you Jeff for unforgettable holiday!!!

Bardzo ladne miejsce, siedzac w basenie lub na tarasie mozna ogladac zycie dzungli ( tukany, kolibry, malpy, papugi itd. Wycieczka nad wodospad,jaka zaproponowal nam Jeff (just a short walk from the house) byla super. Szczegolnie polecam ten dom dla kazdego kto Nie chce wynajmowac samochodu bedac w Costa Rica. Jeff zabierze cie gdzie kolwiek zechcesz (bez dodatkowych oplat).Nasz samolot byl opozniony dwie godziny, pozno w nocy pomimo to Jeff czekal na nas na lotniksu I zawiozl nas na miejsce. Thank you Jeff for unforgettable holiday!!!

Excellent host! Always available and very friendly. The house is very complete and attached to the description. In the middle of the jungle with lots of wildlife around. Almost new and very clean house, well equipped. Will definitely be back

Excelente Host! Siempre disponible y muy amable. La casa muy completa y muy apegada a la descripción. En la mitad de la jungla con mucha vida salvaje alrededor. Casa casi nueva y muy limpia, bien equipada. Definitivamente volveré

Gracias, Alejandro.  Usted y su familia siempre serán bienvenidos.  Fue un placer recibirlos en la casa.

This house was amazing.   We spent a day at the pool and saw SO many animals.   They are everywhere.   The host went above and beyond at every step and was so very kind.   I stay at a lot of airbnbs and this one is fantastic.  I would have stayed for a month if I could have

Thank you, Michelle. It was a pleasure to have you stay in our house. I'm glad the animals cooperated. haha.

Excelente stay! We couldn’t have asked for a better host nor a better locations. Jeffery went above and beyond our expectations from the very beginning. Jeff gave us great insight on local restaurants. Ronnie’s food was amazing but the view was perfect. The home itself lacked nothing. From a kitchen with a view to the pool, to a balcony full of monkeys. The master bedroom was extremely spacious. We have been asked by everyone we know about Villa Tiquicia. It’s an amazing house in an amazing place. We wouldn’t have had the experience we did without Jeffery!! Thanks for everything!

Thank you, Eric! It was a pleasure to host you and your family. It was like having old friends in the house.  You are welcome any time. I hope you'll come again.

Can’t say enough about Jeff’s place and his hospitality. He just recently acquired the place, so if you are worried about the lack of reviews, that’s why. The place was super clean with everything you could need. Fully stocked kitchen. Awesome patio with a fantastic view. The infinity pool was great as well. The best thing though has to be the wild life. Lots of birds, including Macaws and Toucans. One day we were visited by a family of TiTi monkeys. We were on the bedroom balcony and were suddenly surrounded by 15-20 of them! Jeff was an awesome host. He is a retired Spanish teacher from the States, so communication was not a problem. He made sure we had everything we needed and was able to recommend some great restaurants (Ronny’s Place was awesome). Another great thing with this place is Jeff is your own private chauffeur! He will pick you up at the airport and drive you wherever you need to go during your stay. It was great not having to rent a car or worry about driving. I very highly recommend Jeff’s place if you’re looking for an awesome place to stay in Quepos.

Thank you, Tim. That is very kind of you.  Please come back any time!
