Ocean View Bungalow - Sleeps 4 *Beach* - Monkeys!

Year Purchased: 2005

Why the Owner Chose Manuel Antonio

After looking for a long time in Manuel Antonio for a home to buy, we finally found that Tulemar Gardens was the only location with all paved roads to the home, a private beach and a gated community. We fell in love love with the area.

My family owns property here in Tulemar Gardens. We have offered our home for rent here for several years. Recently we have started booking rentals for our friends who also have homes here. This is one of those units.

Perfect vacation spot.

The Tulemar Bungalows provided the perfect Costa Rica vacation experience. The bungalows themselves are large, clean and have amazing ocean views. There are monkeys and other wildlife everywhere. The private beach is one of the biggest perks of staying here. It is a beautiful beach where you can boogie board, kayak, snorkel, swim, etc. and there are hiking trails on the property. Even though the beaches are great in the national park, we preferred the private beach.

The private beach is one of the biggest perks of staying here. It is a beautiful beach where you can boogie board, kayak, snorkle, swim, etc. and there are hiking trails on the property. Even though the beaches are great in the national park, we preferred the private beach. The sunsets were more and more amazing each night we were there. Manuel antonio is a must-do if going to Costa Rica and Tulemar is in the perfect location. There are amazing restaurants and bars within walking distance. The personal concierge service was extremely helpful as well. This is the perfect option for a vacation in Manuel antonio!

“Welcome to the jungle (go on, sing it!)”

Guest: Travelfever104 (-)
Date of Stay: 08/15/11 Review Submitted: 08/27/11

How many 'O's can I put in the word love to express how much we adored this place? From the moment we arrived (excessively early - apprx. 6.5 hours early after a red eye flight) we were taken care of. Dave, a charming fellow Californian (previously), welcomed us and introduced us to wonderful Julian who would be our designated consierge for the duration of our five night stay. Julian gave us a tour of the grounds, drove us into town to get a feel for Manuel Antonio, and dropped us off at a great breakfast place (forgot the name but it is referred to as the "Starbucks of Costa Rica"). We walked the short distance back and hung out at the private beach until our room was ready. And what a room! My dream of staying in a treehouse felt satisfied. We stayed in one of the bungalows the first night where we had practically 360 degree views of the jungle just inches from our hands and the ocean in the distance. There was no deck but I loved the large space and having a kitchenette. Julian also took us to the store so we could pick up groceries for our attempt at local cuisine. (***Note- Consume as much Lezano (condiment) as you can as you're not allowed to bring it in your carry-on, even if purchased at the airport. Better yet, check luggage and leave a lot of extra space for the big bottles. You'll be glad you did!) The private beach is one of the biggest sells of Tulemar. It's raked clean and pristine and you don't have to worry about anyone trying to sell you things. David, who hands out towels, bodyboards, kayaks, etc., is just the neatest guy and we were always glad to see him. Kayaking was great. Also, if you're considering doing the fairly expensive snorkeling excursion offered by an outside company, don't. They snorkle very near Tulemar's beach. Purchase your own gear (other than fins b/c Tulemar has those) and take a kayak out just a ways to do it for free. Oh, and if you're from CA, you will LOVE how warm this water is! Not to be missed: Salsipuedoes (food and live music) and Aqua Azul (delicious!) restaurants within walking distance, Catedral trail at the park, and ADR adventure tour (hands-down the most fun you'll ever have!). Thank you to all the folks at Tulemar and especially to Julian. You made our second "honeymoon" an absolutely amazing, unforgettable experience!

“We never wanted to leave! It's amazing!”

We decided on Tulemar when we saw the bungalows on-line as we wanted a little something quaint in a natural setting. We where immediately blown away at the pristine beauty of the Tulemar property. Within the first hour on the beach we saw several monkeys, different crabs and flora. The water at the beach was warm with a nice little swell to go body surfing. The kayaks were included and we took full advantage of that and leisurely paddled along the stunning coastline almost every day we where there. Only words of advice... wear your sunblock. And if you are from Maine like us, wear sunblock and cover-up! Our concierge was Julien and wow, he took wonderful care of us! He took us to the market on the first day to get the basics as well as checked in with us every evening to see what we needed and if he could help us in any way, but not in a pushy way. In fact we really enjoyed the entire staff here. They provided us with great suggestions for day trips as well as the good places to dine out! Dave and Mauriscio hello there! Yes, I'm talking about you guys:) They also arranged a person to take my husband to the local surfing area where we hung during the day ( me under umbrella and husband surfing!) We have decided to go back next year for a bit longer and end our trip at Tulemar. We look forward to seeing the staff again and staying at this extrordinary property! Hasta luego!

“You will love tulemar”

Guest: James (-)
Date of Stay: 05/14/11 Review Submitted: 08/06/11

If you want an adventure in the jungle then you will love tulemar! We saw a lot of monkeys and a sloth. We had monkeys outside our window at 7 am. We heard them on the roof, then they jumped on the branch outside the window. We saw. Sloth in the tree at the beach. The beach is gorgeous and relaxing. Julien is a huge asset to the tulemar staff! He makes everything happen! Our family loved everything about tulemar and highly recommend it! Jim Ingersoll Author, "investing now"

“Rustic, luxurious, and relaxing, all in one.”

Guest: Amy (-)
Date of Stay: 05/10/11 Review Submitted: 08/06/11

We stayed at the bungalow in May 2011. I cannot say enough about the location and staff. It's a resort, but it's in the jungle. Our bungalow was surrounded by beautiful vegetation. The bungalow itself was nicely appointed, with a small kitchenette, large bedroom, large living area, and (of course) full bathroom. There was AC, which we did need on some nights b/c of the humidity. But, that's the jungle :). There was a private beach that was (from our bungalow) about a 10 minute walk. The beach is breathtaking. It's a Corona commercial. There is a bar/restaurant on the beach that served breakfast and lunch (not sure if that changes with the season). The entire staff (front desk, concierges, beach attendants, waitstaff, everyone!) was friendly and helpful. Tulemar is also a great place for animal-lovers: We saw monkeys, sloths, and many lizard while there. You just don't see that in the Northeast U.S.!

“The bungalows are great”

Guest: Jackson (-)
Date of Stay: 06/27/11 Review Submitted: 08/06/11

My wife and I stayed in the bungalow for 4 nights and loved it. The bunglow was great, spacious and looked like the photos that they have posted online. That never happens, right? I was nervous when the rooms were described as dated, but it was super clean. We also used the family pool, it had a waterfall and tremendous views. There are lots of nice beaches in Manuel Antonio, especially in the park, but they are so crowded that we just went to the private beach at the hotel. The beach isn't crowded and there are lots of activities. If you order from the beach bar go with the mahi mahi sandwich.

Second time in Costa Rica, First time in paradise

Guest: Isabela (-)
Date of Stay: 07/12/11 Review Submitted: 08/06/11

We stay at Tulemar as honeymooners and the experience was absolutely PERFECT. Not only the place (out of this world) but the people, the service, the food, the animals, absolutely everything was a lifetime experience. Our concierge Jullien took care of everything since we decided to make reservations nine months before. The bungalow was fabulous for the two of us, but if you are planning on going with a family of 4 its perfect too. The place is beautiful, super secure, private and relaxing. The equipment provided at the beach was great and useful. Lots of delicious restaurants at walking distance from the entrance of Tulemar. We don't have any complains about this place. PURA VIDA!

“Worth staying here for the private beach alone...

Guest: John (-)
Date of Stay: 07/15/11 Review Submitted: 08/06/11

...but you'll be happy with every other aspect of Tulemar as well! We had a great five night stay here. The beach is indeed its biggest asset...it's just so beautiful and there are sand toys for the kids, kayaks, and boogie boards for the guests to use. Dave (at the beach...he's another big Tulemar asset) is always there with a smile to take care of anything you need whether it's to get you in a kayak, hand out boogie boards and towels, or point out monkeys and sloths! Our bungalow was spotless and comfortable, the property is pretty and well maintained, and the location is ideal (walk to restaurants and shopping). Our concierge, Julien, checked in on us frequently and was available to us at any moment...and most importantly he was extremely welcoming and personable. Overall, no problems whatsoever and I'd recommend and return in a heartbeat!

“I loved our bungalow!! What a great escape!”

Guest: Sovery (-)
Date of Stay: 07/18/11 Review Submitted: 08/06/11

“I loved our bungalow!! What a great escape!” I traveled to Quepos with my boyfriend for a quiet getaway. I booked a bungalow based on the photos on the website. It was exactly what I expected! Adorable, great views and my favorite part - you can open all the windows and listen to the sounds of nature! It was cool enough at night to turn off the A/C and fall asleep to a cool breeze and the sounds of the birds & monkeys. We walked to the private beach, drank rum&coke, played cards and simply relaxed. The service was EXCELLENT! would definitely recommend this facility - truly a pleasure. If you want some yummy eats - I discovered a little cafe just outside Tulemar gates to the right: Cafe Milagro - Adrienne is a sweetheart and the food is yummy!! Stayed July 2011, traveled as a couple
