About Tulemar Resort

Tulemar Resort sits at Tulemar Gardens in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica, and holds a 5-star rating with a 9.8 guest score from 234 reviews. Instead of a standard hotel block, the stay is built around bungalows and villas. Most have a private entrance, a kitchen or kitchenette, a sitting area and air conditioning, and many look onto the gardens. The Premium Villa and Premium Bungalow categories add partial ocean views, and the larger villas come with a hot tub or, in the case of Tule Villa, a private pool.

The water is a big part of the day here. The resort has a private beach area, and water sport facilities on site make it easy to spend time snorkelling, canoeing or fishing. Back from the shore there is an outdoor pool, a kids' pool and a sun terrace, with sun loungers or beach chairs and sun umbrellas for settling in. For slower hours, the spa/wellness center offers massage services, and a hot spring bath is also available.

On land, the surroundings invite exploring. Hiking and horse riding are both on offer, and walking tours and a tour or class on local culture give the days some variety. The tour desk can help organize outings, and a picnic area and packed lunches suit a day out. Evenings are for the restaurant and the bar, where a happy hour runs. If you would rather stay in, room service, breakfast in the room and food delivered to your room are all available.

Everyday practicalities are covered. Free WiFi, free parking, an airport shuttle (additional charge), concierge service, laundry and luggage storage are all part of the stay, and a minimarket on site handles quick shopping. Security includes 24-hour staffing, CCTV outside the property and key access. Check-out is at 11:00 AM. The property is managed by a private host, and a deposit may be required at the property.
