Absolutely Perfect Vacation and Resort My wife and I had a great experience at Tulemar. Our concierge Orlando was fantastic and went about and beyond. We hope to visit again in the future!
A nature lovers dream vacation. Wild life lovers dream vacation. Got a premium bungalow with a balcony. Get the balcony! 1000 percent worth it! Had 3 separate visits from monkeys on our balcony. They were very curious. Saw more monkeys and sloths than I could begin to count. Service was fantastic and maid service did an amazing job keeping everything clean. Shuttle drivers were great. All staff was helpful in pointing out wildlife. Beds were very hard in our unit ( only negative of resort). Be prepared for cost of food in town all pretty expensive. We ate about half of our meals for the week at the resort and the rest of the meals outside of the resort spent about $2000 for a week of food for 2 adults and 2 children. We took 4 tours and all were awesome. Beach was fun, kids loved the buggie boards. Our concierge Migel was so helpful. He even checked on us after a small earthquake we experienced while in Costa Rica.
Wildlife galore! This place is amazing all the way around! Service, scenery and amenities. Lots of wildlife throughout the resort with multiple pools and private beach.
The most memorable vacation – Tulemar The service and staff of Tulemar are beyond compare. From our concierge, Luis, to personal chef, Jose, the level of courtesy and professionalism was simply impressive. Our family simply did not want to leave; the grounds are immaculate, and our home for the week, Mono Loco was astounding. We’ve already started searching our calendar for a return visit!
11/10 recommend! Love sloths in the trees? Monkeys on your balcony? A private beach for the resort? Beautiful sunset views? This is the place for you! We absolutely loved Tulemar. Our family of four (kids 7 and 10) stayed in Casa Panorama last week and it was amazing. The views truly could not be beat and the sunsets were perfection. The service was top notch. Alex was our favorite driver and he also rescued us from a scorpion situation for which we are eternally grateful. Jorge the concierge was helpful and the staff were all wonderful. The private beach is phenomenal and there are towels, chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, life jackets, sand toys, and food and drink service. Our kids loved boogie boarding and could have played in the delta all day. The rooms were clean and beautiful, the beds were comfortable, and the amenities were great. I was expecting the spectacular views but was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the rooms and service. We saw tons of monkeys (they tried to break into our room 😆) and two sloths. The only thing that could have made our visit here better were more sloth viewings. We arranged transportation through Tulemar and loved our driver, Jorge, who drove us from the airport to Manuel Antonio (3 hours) and then from Tulemar to Arenal (5 hours). Jorge was an excellent driver. My only complaint is that the shuttle was not in the best condition – it made frequent high-pitched screeches which were not reassuring going over those windy mountain roads.
Amazing property Amazing staff What a beautiful resort. The staff was amazing super friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious. It was in an area where it felt super safe to walk around outside of the resort. Highly recommend.
An amazing time with our whole family. A wonderful place with a great staff. Beautiful accommodations with excellent daily service. Loved the fresh flowers. Loved the private beach. Manuel Antonio is one of the most wonderous places on earth, can’t wait to return.
A memorable getaway We had a wonderful time a Tulemar. We were provided exceptional service by our concierge , Javier, who booked all of our thrilling excursions and made sure everything with our stay went smoothly. Our housekeeper, Kevin made sure our place stayed clean and tidy always with a-smile on his face. We enjoyed the random treats they provided to make our stay even more special. Tulemar is nestled in the Costa Rican forest along the pacific coast which allowed for daily sightings of wildlife from our villa. We will definitely be back in the future.
Heaven…my review says it all. If heaven exists I’ll believe it f I find myself in the bar at Tulemar drinking Margaritas and eating tacos. Truly magical in every sense.
Absolutely Amazing! This was my second visit two Costa Rica and this time was even better than the first time! Our stay at the Tulemar Resort added so much to our experience. The location was perfect! The amenities exceeded my expectations! And the staff were prompt at meeting all of our needs!
One of our best vacations ever!!!! We had the most amazing Costa Rican family vacation in Manuel Antonio. Our stay in the gorgeous Solangelo Villa at Tulemar was beyond words. The view breathtaking, wildlife surrounded us, the accommodations were superior, and the staff were friendly and very professional. Our incredible VIP concierge Brian met us on our arrival with a huge smile and lots of enthusiasm. It was so fun to finally meet him after all our texting back and forth, making plans for this fabulous vacation. He arranged the best fishing, girls spa day, white water rafting, horseback riding, zip lining adventures!!! And then there were our fun & awesome chefs, Jose and Nahomy. Every meal was beautifully presented and so delicious!!!! They immediately felt like part of the family. Our kids and grand daughters will never forget their fabulous adventures at Tulemar. Can’t wait to return, The Railsback Family
Excellent service Tulemar was beautiful. The villa easily accommodated nine people. The vegetation was lush and the animals were abundant. The beach was private and lovely. The concierge was the best. Javier and team anticipated and met our every need before and during our stay. Top notch service. Would come again
