Absolutely perfect I have nothing but love for this resort. We stayed in Villa Mot Mot and it could not have been more perfect – the views, the monkeys, the a/c, the beds, our concierge. We could walk to the beach in about 20 minutes and we loved the little pools tucked away. I was with four agile teenagers. The resort on on a pretty steep slope, so while they are great about picking you up and taking you where you want to go, it is probably not ideal for those with mobility, otherwise 5 Stars!
Beautiful property, fantastic views, great service & food My Family has been staying at Tulemar since 1998. The food, service and property keeps getting better. This was our first trip without kids. The adults had a great time. Casa Palmas Del Mar was a perfect house for a large group of friends. Jorge our concierge was amazing. Booked tours, spa treatments & dinner reservations. Made our vacation a truly relaxing experience. Can’t wait to get back to Tulemar.
Best family vacation! This was the best family vacation we could dream up! Will remember it forever.
Un séjour merveilleux Un personnel aux petits soins, très professionnels, un site extraordinaire, d’un logement impeccable avec une vue incroyable. Il pourrait y avoir 2 choses à améliorer dans le logement : avoir des toilettes séparées et un lave-vaisselle.
Nature and luxury Wonderful experience, so many animals on property in natural habitat (saw several sloths, squirrel monkeys (on our balcony) and capuchin monkeys – and a Toucan visited the pool area for a while. Great beach and helpful shuttle services. Excellent concierge service to coordinate all plans (thank you Miguel!).
Exceptional Resort and Incredible Service We had a wonderful stay at Tulemar Resort, and our concierge, Miguel, truly went above and beyond to make our experience seamless. He checked in with us every day, even coordinating the cleaning service around our schedule so we were never disturbed. He helped with food orders, restaurant reservations, excursions, and anything else we needed. Miguel was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. His exceptional service made our stay even more enjoyable. We highly recommend Tulemar and especially Miguel!

El hotel tiene una playa privada donde conocimos a David que nos atendio muy cordialmente y siempre con buen humor y una sonrisa. Gracias tambien a Miguel, que estuvo siempre pendiente de que la pasemos bien.
Pura Vida: Incredible Ocean Views, Balcony Monkeys, and Outstanding Service Tulemar served as the ideal backdrop for our family getaway to Costa Rica. The entire resort was breathtaking, completely exceeding everything we had anticipated. Our bungalow offered stunning views of both the jungle and the ocean—watching monkeys play right from our balcony and taking in the gorgeous evening sunsets were absolute highlights. We owe a special thank you to our concierge, Miguel Leiva, for going above and beyond throughout our stay. Miguel was remarkably warm, professional, and attentive. He assisted us seamlessly both before and during our stay, happily accommodating us even when our plans required last-minute changes. His genuine kindness made us feel truly welcome. If you are on the fence about booking, don’t hesitate. You will be in wonderful hands, and we are already looking forward to returning!
Stunning Jungle Vacation Tulemar exceeded all of our expectations. We were spoiled everyday by our concierge, Chris Madrigal and the maids that cared for our stunning house. The view was incredible overlooking the jungle and ocean. The resort has star fruit, coconut, and mango trees and the monkeys, and sloths were right on our porch. We also saw toucans, macaws, and parrots daily. It was truly a miraculous trip we will never forget. Thank you Tulemar!
Tulemar 2026 Our family’s time in Costa Rica truly unforgettable. Tulemar was the prefer setting for our multi-family, multi-generational get-together. It was clean, quiet and just plain beautiful. And of course, a big part of why our time was so unforgettable was because of Miguel our concierge. He answered all our questions – both before we arrived and while at Tulemar – and offered fantastic suggestions to help us make the most of our time in Manuel Antonio. Above all, he was exceptionally friendly and kind. Our week exploring Tulemar and Manuel Antonio is one that we will always remembers

We can’t wait to come back. Thank you again, Miguel Leiva , for making our trip so special
Incredible Experience at Tulemar Tulemar was the absolute perfect ending to an incredible week in Costa Rica! After several adventure-packed days in La Fortuna, we loved being able to slow down, relax, and just enjoy how beautiful this place is. The views from our villa were incredible, and one of the highlights was watching monkeys playing right from our balcony. Our kids loved it, and it was one of those experiences that just felt so uniquely Costa Rica. What really made our stay exceptional as well was our concierge, Miguel. He was so kind, attentive, accommodating, and genuinely thoughtful throughout our entire stay. He was always available to help with anything we needed and made everything feel easy. You could tell he truly cared about making our family’s stay special, and he absolutely did. We absolutely loved Costa Rica, and Tulemar was a huge part of what made the trip so memorable. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. And if you’re lucky enough to have Miguel as your concierge, you’re in wonderful hands!
