About this property

Award Winner: TripAdvisor's Luxury 'Top Vacation Rental'- Walk to Beach and Park

Casa Tolteca has won TripAdvisor's "Top Vacation Rental" because of its spectacular views, luxury amenities, award winning service, and exceptional location. CasaTolteca has remained one of the most popular and most requested luxury homes in Manuel Antonio for over 12 years because ONLY CasaTolteca has:

1) Perfect location... close to the beach as well as the town (this is one of only two large homes in town that you can comfortably walk to the public beach where you will find the entrance to the National Park).
2) Privacy - From virtually every corner of the estate, you have complete privacy. Your view is lush tropical rain-forest and stunning ocean views, not noisy, distracting neighbors. Most homes in town are built on narrow lots with neighbors just a few feet away.
3) Perfect layout for large groups... one large great room for everyone to get together when you want, and three other living areas for everyone to have their own private space when needed.
4) Horizontal layout that rolls up into the rainforest, which gives you that great indoor/outdoor feeling that you are living in the rain-forest, not just looking over it.
5) Safety - Completely gated, located in a very safe area of town, with security cameras (and security guard just in front of our entry gate), you can rest assured that you and your family will have no surprises.

SAVE $1000
Our Concierge will contact you after your booking to arrange English speaking driver for pickup and drop off to the Villa for a fee.

Because of the unique location, you may not need rental cars which can save you over $1000! There is only one bus that runs through Manuel Antonio and it goes up and down the main road. The bus stop is 10 meters to the right. Bus is approximately 60 cents per person. Taxis are readily available and are couple dollars. Most everything is close 15-20 minute if you’re into some exercise!

Surrounded by lush rain-forest with virtually no visible neighbours, CasaTolteca offers extraordinary peace, privacy, and seclusion for you and the local exotic birds, monkeys, and other wildlife that frequently visit our home. Walk through our colourful butterfly garden and out our secure entrance gate and you can walk to over a dozen restaurants, bars, a private nature reserve, casinos, the beach, and even the world famous National Park in just minutes. You don't need a car!

Enjoy morning coffee on the balconies or evening cocktails in the living room, you will always have huge ocean and jungle views. CasaTolteca gives you comfortable indoor/outdoor living with incredible ocean views from every level.

Experience CasaTolteca now - its lush jungle setting and breathtaking ocean views are out of this world. Explore the many exciting attractions of this pristine coastal rain forest from one of the most pleasant and delightfully relaxing luxury havens in all of Central America.

Please allow us to help assure that you and your entire group enjoy a truly fabulous expedition in this incomparable tropical paradise. Contact us anytime. We will be happy to tell you more about Costa Rica, Manuel Antonio, and CasaTolteca. We look forward to hearing from you soon, and to eventually serving you at CasaTolteca!

About the host

Hosted by Kamsen Iyer

Host profile image
We are Canadians who love to travel and fell in love with Costa Rica. Specifically Manuel Antonio. It is the only place that I have seen that you are almost guaranteed to see Monkeys, Sloth, Parrots, toucans and tons more!

Why they chose this property

Privacy and Location!!! Casa Tolteca is the perfect location. Almost all homes in Manuel Antonio are on hillside and are not easily accessible. This property is in the heart of everything. Walking distance to everything including the beach.

It is the perfect set up for large groups as it allows wonderful meeting areas but has 4 separate units allowing all guests the availability for privacy to get a break from the group. You can get up in morning make a pot of coffee and enjoy the ocean view from your private unit without waking up the entire house.

It is uniquely awesome! Hence all the 5 star reviews!

What makes this property unique

The home has incredible private areas to sit and watch the birds and ocean. It is a gardeners dream. We have planted so many fruit trees and local herbs. All labelled in English and Spanish for those of us that don't know what we are looking at. There is a covered yoga/reading deck to avoid the sun when needed and private porches on each unit so you always have a place to get some quiet. There are many gathering areas for when you want to be social. Each room has its own air conditioning so you can cool off when needed. Private bathrooms and showers so you're not sharing. It is surrounded by jungle with complete privacy and tons of wild life yet still in the middle of it all. There just is no comparable property in Manuel Antonio.
