House is absolutely incredible! Had everything you could possibly need. The little restaurant down the hill at the Manuel Antonio Surf School (MASS) was so much fun. Had a great and very fresh lunch and monkey show. The pool was a little too chilly for my liking but did dip in to cool off for a second (could be time of year and shade). Definitely recommend driving the driveway in the light your first time.

This was an amazing place to stay! We came to Costa Rica for the animals, and we saw more while sitting right on the lovely outdoor patio than we saw anywhere else. The birds were so active in the morning, and the monkeys entertained us in the afternoon. All communication with the management company was easy and thorough. The home itself was well appointed and comfortable for our family. We would highly recommend staying here!

Jorge was extremely helpful. He met us at a nearby location and helped us get to the house. Jorge also made horseback riding reservations for us and it was an excellent tour that he reserved. He was also available for restaurant suggestions and other helpful advice. The house is very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to make dinner and breakfast. We will definitely consider staying at this location again.

Our stay was magical! Jorge (our concierge) was incredibly helpful and assisted us beyond what was anticipated. We had an unfortunate incident occur and we were so impressed with how helpful the property owner was and how quickly Jorge stepped in to help me with getting connected with necessary people and even translating. We ventured to try getting our own taxi and learned immediately why we left it to concierge to order them for us! Our drivers were very kind and engaging. One even took the time to teach us Spanish during our car rides. We were provided excellent restaurant and excursion suggestions. The home was gorgeous and the views were out of this world. We had the pleasure of seeing so much wildlife from the balcony and were visited multiple times by monkeys. Staying at Casa Del Toro and getting the level of service we received made our trip to Costa Rica absolutely unforgettable.

Spring Break Adventure Trip w/Teens

A beautifully spotless clean house up on hill that overlooks Quepos and Quepos Bay. The house was spacious, the pool fantastic, the living areas roomy and comfortable for a family of 4 (the two teens got their own room and bathroom). We’d come back again with couples as it has ensuite bathrooms. We saw right from the balcony toucans, macaws, iguanas, and a variety of tropical birds. No laundry on premise but they will do laundry for you. Just had some wet clothes in between.

Beautiful home

This property is beautiful, just like the pictures. In our opinion, the driveway was not as bad as some reviews and we had a mid-size SUV. There are quite a few steps getting from the parking area to the front door, but they were not an issue for us. We would all stay here again.

Amazing hotel quality rental

The property was great. Amazing mountain views and views over Quepos. Only a 12 minute drive to Manuel Antonio Park. The driveway is very steep and not for the faint of heart, but if you have a 4x4 and patience, you'll be fine. Concierge services were awesome, we arrived late and they coordinated dinner to the home 2 nights so we didnt have to drive at night.

Great view over the town and partial ocean views. Amazing wildlife viewing from the patio.

Rental was seamless and the property was clean. Saw monkeys, Toucans , Macaws, Aracari, all from the patio. Kitchen was ok but the entire house is in need of improved(brighter) lighting. Very dim in the kitchen at night.

Quepos 5-star treehouse

Our stay was nothing short of fantastic. Jorge greeted us at a local landmark and guided us to the property and up the winding driveway. He helped get us settled and provided great recommendations throughout our stay. The property is breathtaking with views of the forest, ocean, and downtown Quepos from the multiple outdoor seating areas. The vaulted ceilings and sliding glass doors make you feel like you are in a 5-star treehouse. After exploring the local beaches and parks each day, we enjoyed sunsets from the pool and covered deck areas. The home met and exceeded every expectation. Thank you to our hosts for a wonderful stay.
