Villa vacation rentals in Tarcoles

The place was exactly like the pictures. Very secure quiet neighborhood. The pool was always clean. Any problems or concerns you had you could contact Wen or Sol and they immediately responded. Also it was very helpful that Sol spoke really good English so there was no language barrier. Oh and the main strip for Jaco Beach was about a 7 minute walk which was really good. Or if you want to Uber it’s like $2. Plenty of places to eat and plenty things to do. Overall a great location and great place to stay.

The place is perfect for relaxing, the view is amazing. The whole place was spotless, each room with its own air conditioning and a well-equipped kitchen!

Had an amazing stay at this villa. Rick and Stacey were extraordinarily welcoming and helpful. The place is beautiful with wildlife on the grounds and views of the ocean. Recommend this place thoroughly!

good place and locatio n

The house is exactly as shown in the pictures and has a spectacular view. The whole place is very comfortable to have a good time with family and friends. In addition, communication with Felipe is excellent. I would definitely come back

This villa is truly breathtaking. Very spacious and close enough to both Jaco & Playa Hermosa. I would say try to get up to the villa during check-in hours as it gets dark quickly in CR and it’s hard to see up the hills in the dark. Thomas is a super responsive host & the property manager Laura is extremely helpful. This villa offers daily cleaning and if any issues arise they are fixed within hours. I enjoyed my stay and I would return again! There will be bugs so be prepared but the bug spray provided by the cleaning ladies and keeping the doors closed did help a lot!

Great family holiday in a beautiful country, peaceful settings & your really feel like your in the jungle with the iguanas & unbelievable array of colourful birds.

The house is beautiful just like in the picture, the view is amazing, nice pool, safe neighbourhood.

Absolutely wonderful, beautiful, and safe place to stay in Manuel Antonio. Beds are comfortable , and I appreciated the variety of pillow softness. AC in the bedrooms is a luxury ! View is second to none, all rooms have a view! Kitchen had everything we needed to cook small meals. Housekeeping was a treat to have. We walked to shops, but there are some hills and few sidewalks. Uber is readily available about $4 to the beach. The walk to the nearby beach was too hilly for us, but we saw others doing it. My favorite thing about this place is the monkeys that frequent it :) we would love to come back again! Host was welcoming and helpful

Trip Dates: 5-30-25 / 6-8-25 Our stay at the Jungle Roost was amazing and enjoyed by all members of our family, (2 Adults & 2 Teenage Daughters, 15 & 17). Ismael provided awesome concierge service and went above and beyond to make our trip effortless and enjoyable. Communication was excellent from the time of booking until the day we headed home. Ismael helped arranged multiple services and activates/outings prior to our arrival, which was very helpful. Ismael was attentive and responsive to all needs and checked in regularly to ensure everything was satisfactory, and provided assistance whenever needed. I just want Ismael to know that we appreciated his professionalism and dedication to going the extra mile to ensure that we had a great experience during our vacation. Can't say enough about the Villa, beautiful surroundings, private, wildlife galore, we really enjoyed the privacy and the daily visits from the monkeys, birds and lizards and much more. Highly recommended the Roost.

What a house!! This was 100% perfect for our group of 8 adults! The location provides a gorgeous view of the ocean as well as wildlife up close…all 3 monkey species, the macaws & parakeets flying overhead & we even had a sloth outside our front door. The location is walking distance to the super or mini markets as well as many restaurants & bars; it’s a quick ride to the National park & beach. Had a few maintenance issues, which were taken care of quickly. The only downfall is the incredibly steep driveway to the house; it’s no joke! We met our excursion transportation & Ubers at the top of our driveway ( but within our “neighborhood”.) Those with mobility issues will definitely have trouble navigating it. This house has maid & laundry service as well as a safe in most of the rooms. We had a chef come into the villa three times. Chef Tito who was the recommended chef was already booked, so he had Chef Gerald take care of us. He was excellent. Highly recommend the villa.

This home was absolutely beautiful and the kitchen right to the pool is an amazing set up. Due to some water issues in the neighborhood, we didn’t have running water and Katie made sure to communicate options for us and that she was getting people to work on it immediately. Katie is a great host and very caring. Highly recommend. If you have a baby, you can order a pack n play on Amazon to have it delivered, just need to do it a couple weeks in advance.

Really special place!! The views are incredible and we saw so much wildlife from our beautiful wrap-around deck and the pool area, including monkeys, scarlet macaws and agoutis. Loved the privacy and serenity of the villa, but was a short walk to the Mariposa hotel. Would definitely stay here again!!

The most beautiful Airbnb I have ever stayed at!! The pictures do not do this place justice. My jaw was on the floor the moment I walked in and around the property. We enjoyed swimming in the pool and cooking on the outdoor grill. Edgardo was very responsive anytime we had any issues. He also was helpful with booking activities. 1000/10!

I absolutely loved my stay! The house was beautiful—so nice we didn’t even want to leave. The pictures honestly didn’t do it justice. Everything was clean, spacious, and well-designed. The driver that was recommended was amazing—we really enjoyed our road trips with him. He was super nice, funny, and made the ride there enjoyable. Pedro was also incredibly helpful and kind; he truly saved the day more than once and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. I totally recommend staying here—it was an unforgettable experience!

We loved the house , the space, the pool and even the surroundings in the house floor and the downstairs that has a lot to explore. Mafe ( Maria ) was an amazing host and always there to help and respond anything we needed. She helped accommodate us the best possible for any needs needed . We loved that each room had a bathroom , plus two more in the house overall. We loved the lady who cooked and also takes care of the house . Her name is Gloria and she truly made our stay feel like HOME. Her cooking is amazing and she does it with love. She was truly one of our favorites part of the stay. The location was good and even had a spot nearby with different spots to try different food . We truly enjoyed this Airbnb to the max. Gloria makes the home feel like home and Mafe made us feel at home in Costa Rica.

Very nice home in a convenient location to beaches and restaurants. Beautiful windows as expected from the name but the doors are so heavy it makes them a bit hard to negotiate. The kitchen was sparcely stocked. Plates and bowls are stacked about 6 feet high so a bit difficult to find unless you are over 6 feet tall. The oven was not working and we had to light the gas burners with a match (we do the same at home so no big deal but knowing this is advance would have saved a phone call). The dryer was also broken so we air dried our clothes and towels. We expect a home advertised with appliances to have working appliances so this was a disappointment as part of the reason for renting a home instead of a hotel is use of a fully functional kitchen and washer/dryer. Otherwise the home was beautiful and the pool refreshing after a day out.

Our stay at Daniel’s villa was incredible from start to finish. The hospitality was truly next level—Daniel and Andre were always available, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. They even helped coordinate several excursions for us, and each one turned out to be amazing. The villa itself was stunning: spotless, spacious, and packed with everything you need to relax and have a great time. We loved spending time by the pool, enjoying the outdoor speakers, and playing foosball—it felt like our own private resort. The location was also ideal, just a short drive from the Jaco area with plenty of great restaurants, shops, and of course, the beach. One of the standout highlights was the daily brunch, prepared by a fantastic in-house chef. Every meal was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented—definitely a 10/10. This was one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve ever had. We can’t recommend this villa enough and would return in a heartbeat!

Eduardo's home feels like you are staying at a luxurious estate owned by a friend who has told you to come relax for a few days or a week while he is away on business. The home is elegant but comfortable and if there is anything you need, all you have to do is ask—Eduardo is always available and responsive to messages. Paola, the onsite housekeeper, is a wonderful resource, and an important part of the experience. She will greet you upon your arrival, explain how to access the property, help you with any laundry you need, provide daily maid service in your bedrooms, and help you prepare meals (all you have to do is buy the food/ingredients). If you don't speak Spanish, have your Google Translate app. ready, as Paola is a whiz at communicating with messages translated on her phone. There are great restaurants and shops nearby. We stayed in three different homes during our recent 9 day vacation in Costa Rica and this home was our favorite.

Beautiful property, everything is very clean, utensils, furniture and beds more than enough for the 7 of us to be absolutely comfortable. The beautiful pool and pool house perfectly equipped for a large group.

My family of 5 stayed here for Spring Break 2025 for 6 nights, and it was incredible! Maggy was super responsive, and Kenny the caretaker was amazing—he booked two tours for us and helped with anything we needed. The house is peaceful, private, and absolutely beautiful—set high in the hills with mango trees, hiking trails, and stunning views. The pool was perfect after a beach day or hike. We saw toucans and birds on property but missed the monkeys. The bedrooms have AC, which kept us cool at night. Downstairs can get warm, but fans and airflow instructions helped. One morning during our stay the master bedroom AC broke but Maggy got us fans and it was fixed by the next day. You’ll definitely need a 4x4 to get up to the house. Try to arrive during daylight—we were delayed and arrived after dark, which made it tricky. But we contacted Kenny and he came by motorbike to guide us the rest of the way! It’s about 30–40 minutes to Manuel Antonio. Highly recommend. Pura Vida

The stay here was great and plenty of space for bigger families or multiple families. Plenty of towels for bathrooms and separate ones for the pool. It was clean and if needed, housekeeping is available M-F daily. We requested access to the laundry room to do our own and that was great, so we didn't have so much to do upon our return home. The kitchen was equipped nicely; however, we did need to purchase our own spices/seasonings (i.e. salt and pepper), which would've been nice to have on hand. The host was very helpful in planning and arranging tours and Eddie, the concierge, was very responsive and helpful during our entire stay. We loved the window seats, but would've been more comfortable to sit in with some type of cushioning. Overall, I would recommend this place and stay here again!

An excellent place to vacation

Our family of 10 had an amazing time at Cantamar, especially the pool, backyard and beautiful beach. The house is well laid out and had everything we needed. Bruce was a great host and responsive to all requests. Joel and his wife were also friendly and prompt to help with anything we needed. Would definitely stay again & highly recommend.
