Wonderful Family Vacation
Everything that you read in the reviews is accurate. From the beauty of location to the wonderful meals prepared by the chef. Location is excellent, close to the beach and the national park. We saw monkeys, Toucans, caught seven sailfish on our fishing trip Along with some tasty snapper that the chef prepared for us! there were 12 of us and we all said it was one of the best places we have stayed at!

Costa Rican Magic
This was an incredible stay! We spent the first part of our week in Costa Rica here and it exceeded our expectations. From the moment Chef Ricardo greeted us at the door, we were treated with warmth and care. The meals were outstanding, the views breathtaking, and the massages truly top-notch. The entire property felt like a dream come true!The pool was ideal for both kids and adults, and the space was perfect for our group of four couples and two children. We also booked the extra suite, which gave everyone plenty of privacy and comfort. One of the highlights was the wildlife—we spotted monkeys, parrots, parakeets, scarlet macaws, agoutis, and more, all from the balcony!A point of note: there are a lot of stairs to access the property. While this wasn’t an issue for our group, it could be a consideration for those with mobility challenges.Additionally, one of the couples booked a jet ski tour through the concierge. While the tour itself was fantastic, there was some miscommunication around scheduling and a significant delay in response time. We recommend following up consistently and including the property owner, Jackie, in all communication to ensure plans are confirmed.All in all, we had a magical stay and would absolutely return!

Wonderful villa & staff!
We had a fabulous stay at Villa Tortuga. The property is beautiful and every need was anticipated. Chef Ricardo and Alba were amazing chefs as well as so friendly and helpful. Isolda too was wonderful. It's hard to think of anything that could have been better. Thanks to all for making this a memorable vacation!

Fabulous!!
From the moment we booked the trip, everything was perfect. Communication from the owner was fantastic. Transportation to and from the airport was set up in advance and all went perfectly. The private chef greeted us at check-in and the bus driver helped us with our luggage up to the villa. The daily house cleaning was absolutely terrific. She spent the day there doing laundry and cleaning rooms at our request. She was there, but was not ever in our space or disturbed us. Ricardo the chef produced amazing meals for breakfast and dinner. Was very easy to talk to him and his wife about what our preferences were and they were very accommodating. Also, when we schedule dinner for a specific time, it was delivered to the table within minutes of requested time. Just a perfect touch. The location couldn’t have been better a quick quarter mile walk up the hill you have a half dozen restaurants to choose from. Another couple hundred yards and there is a store a bank, etc.. The roads are a little narrow so you have to be careful walking but very safe. We didn’t experience a single rude person on our six day travels in Costa Rica. Just beautiful people. Thank you for a great vacation! Do not hesitate to book this villa it will exceed your expectations.

This property is amazing! It was incredibly clean and well maintained. The staff is so friendly and the amenities make it so you never even have to leave the house if you’re just wanting some R&R. It’s so close to the beach and local restaurants. Definitely a 10/10!

Simply the best
It's hard to say which we loved more, Costa Rica or this villa! They are both incredible. We were a group of 11 ranging in age from 6 to 72 and this villa was perfect for us. Chef Ricardo, Alba, and the rest of the staff take your typical rental house stay to the next level. They made this vacation one of the best we've ever had. Everything was taken care of for us, the villa was kept in pristine condition for our entire stay, and the cooking was top notch. It would be impossible to overstate how much all of us loved Chef Ricardo and Alba. They are kind, friendly, fun, and just wonderful people. Plus we've never eaten so well! We are hoping Chef will write his own cookbook some day so we can try to recreate some of his meals. The grounds are beautiful and the pool was perfect for the kids. We enjoyed several of the suggested excursions, but our favorites were the waterfall tour, the canopy tour, and the catamaran. Tony and his crew at beach were wonderful. The kids especially loved Roberto and the grasshoppers he made for them out of leaves. Overall, I highly recommend staying here. Our group will for sure return sometime in the next couple of years! We are already talking about our next trip to Villa Tortuga!Thank you for such a fantastic experience!

100 steps from the street to the top floor before you even get to the treehouse! The rooms were lovely, the appointments lovely, the views amazing! Monkeys birds, so many things to see even a sloth! Room for all of us with room to spare and spread out. And the chef… There are no words! He and his wife were the absolute best! We all agreed that every meal was five star dining and the presentation was amazing as well. Outstanding! Wish I could take them home with me.

We had an amazing stay. Our family of 4 and another family of 4 were in the house. All teenagers and plenty of room for everything. Accommodations were beautiful. Chef was amazing. Housekeeper was great. Concierge took care of all activities for us. We saw monkeys, Scarlet Macaws, Toucans, and Iguanas from the house. Highly recommend this home to anyone.

Exceptional and Amazing!!
We had the most wonderful & amazing stay at Villa Tortuga!! First, the place is more incredible than the photos show. Secondly, the staff was absolutely amazing!! They all were so warm and welcoming. Chef Ricardo and Alba’s meals looked like a photo and tasted as if like we were eating at a 5 star restaurant. We just allowed him to do his thing and said "surprise us". We were never disappointed!! The house keeper was such a sweetheart and keep the house immaculate, as well as the grounds keeper outside. Jessica was very responsive and attentive to our requests. She connected us with a taxi driver (Gilbert) who ended up transporting us several places. Once we got his contact info, we just contacted him directly. He too was very responsive. It was as if we had our own personal driver for the week.This was a vacation we will never forget with special memories made we will hold forever in our hearts and minds. Thank you so much Jackie to you and all of your staff as well as all the friendly people there in the Manuel Antonio/Quepos area!!

Magical stay in Manuel Antonio!
Our group of 11 absolutely loved our stay at Villa Tortuga. The host, Jackie, was very communicative and checking in was a breeze. Everything inside and out was beautiful and clean. It truly felt like a luxury resort! Plenty of space for everyone to gather together for dinner or playing games, and a unique multi-level layout to give privacy as well. The property is well-equipped with A/C, an amazing chef's kitchen, and tons of towels.The location is spectacular with a stunning view of the ocean, and close to shops and restaurants. There was wildlife everywhere -- little anoles flitting about the property at night, sounds of monkeys calling to each other, and toucans flying right in front of the huge picture window! The kids had a blast playing in the pool and the adults loved getting massages and hanging out on the huge covered outdoor patio. Of course, all the other reviews are right -- the highlight of our stay was Chef Ricardo and his wife Alba making us amazing meals every day, even on Christmas! Our group is all vegetarian, and they were able to accommodate effortlessly. Every meal (breakfast and dinner) was delicious and unique, and they made a special Anniversary dinner one night as well. Not needing to cook (or clean!) kept us in vacation-mode our whole stay. They were wonderful company, and even allowed our 5 kids to "help" them make dinner one night, which everyone thoroughly enjoyed.If we are fortunate to return to Costa Rica, we would 100% stay here again!

Best experience!
While we were visiting the area received torrential rain so we didn’t get to experience the property as it was intended. However we learned the property has a small resort feel. Very well designed for communal visits. Very clean. Very well appointed. Very safe. But what makes this property exceptional are the people. Isolde the housecleaner was attentive and kind and kept the place spotless. Ricardo and his wife Alba prepared the yummiest of breakfasts… so beautifully prepared and presented. We also had 2 dinners prepared by them. We will never forget their outstanding meals and overall generosity. We have rented in several countries and this will remain closest to our hearts.

Fantastic time in Quepos
We had a short trip to Costa Rica, but loved every minute in the house. It is a beautiful property with many different balocnies and decks. It has a lot of stairs, so keep that in mind when reserving. We had monkeys around the house every day and a raccoon that visited regularly. The scarlet macaws were amazing as well. The staff was fantastic! Cesar prepared amazing meals for breakfast and dinner. We loved everything he made. Overall, we cannot recommend this property enough!

Our family of 5 adults thoroughly enjoyed our stay at beautiful Villa Tortuga! Although we were gone most of the day, we enjoyed coming home and hanging out by the pool together, enjoying the gorgeous views of Manuel Antonito, while chef Ricardo and his wife Alba prepared dinner. After our successful fishing day, Ricardo prepared the fresh tuna into tasty appetizers and dinner for 2 nights. Food was outstanding, Ricardo and Alba so kind, and such a treat to have meals prepared and the kitchen cleaned daily!! Highly recommend!

Top notch! We always use VRBO. This was a first in a different country and we were blown away!! The pictures and description are spot on. What you can’t capture in the description is the incredible STAFF!! If we could have brought them home with us.. we would have. But since we can’t.. we will be coming back next year so we can return to see them and more of this beautiful region. Ricardo you and your beautiful wife are great people and you made us feel like your family. As for tours, we did a lot in 5 days. We did the ATV, Whitewater rafting, the waterfalls, the beach, the Catamaran. Tony’s tours are great and we can’t say enough about Tony or Caesar. They will definitely be on our list. They went above and beyond just tour guides! They also became part of our family and are in our hearts. Jackie, your home is beautiful!!!! We will be back next year!! Pura Vida❤️❤️❤️

We had a very large group and we had more than enough space. Each family enjoyed their room and private bathroom. The house is amazing, be ready for lots of stairs! But the stairs will help you work off all of the wonderful food from Chef Ricardo who was amazing and accommodating with our large group. We had everything set up for us by Jessica and had great communication with excursion, massage and shuttle arrangements. Everything went as planned and smooth. With different ages, abilities and dietary needs we were all happy with our trip from start to finish!

オーナーについて
オーナー : Jackie Morris
Villa Tortuga has been a dream of ours since we first got married. Well, at least the idea of owning property within close proximity of the ocean was. Being from the landlocked state of Oklahoma, our visits to the beach came in the form of family vacations, most often to Florida or Mexico. In 2011 our family decided to take our Christmas trip to Costa Rica. Immediately we fell in love with the nature, the culture, and the people. Costa Rica is unlike any place in the world. For us, it was just developed enough to be comfortable, but untouched enough to remain a idillic paradise. After 3 years of Christmas vacations spent in Manuel Antonio, our family decided to take the plunge and buy property on our favorite street! We are taking every measure possible to make this home feel like a dream vacation home, and we hope that your family will enjoy it as much as ours does!
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
Villa Tortuga has undergone quite the facelift. While it wasn't the prettiest one on the block, we saw the potential in her. Her views are unmatched by any house on the same street. In July 2014, we unveiled the brand new, fully renovated Villa Tortuga. Every tile, every wall, every faucet and fixture has been replaced. And while she maintains her glorious spot high upon the hill (her best feature), that's about all that remains of the former Villa. She's quite the looker now! Throughout the years we have continued to improve upon Villa Tortuga by adding deck space, building our Agua Vida Spa, and additional Suite, and continued grounds maintenance.
この宿泊施設の特徴
You can see the ocean from almost everyone room in the house. The house has been engineered for plenty of privacy, so while there are neighbors close by, you will feel like you are in your own private paradise.
