Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Tarrazu

This was our first trip to Costa Rica and we didn't know what to expect. It's hard to get a full scope of a place with just photographs. From the moment we walked in the door, I knew we picked the right place. Someone else mentioned that the photos don't do this place justice, and they were spot on. It's airy yet cozy, tranquil but enough space to spread out and have a good time. The location was far enough away from Quepos to give it a country feel but still be able to quickly pick something up for dinner. My only criticism is that the kitchen was not as equipped as I like (we had to get creative with the can opener and the knives were pretty dull) but we managed. I highly recommend Villa Vanilla- it's a biodynamic organic farm 10 minutes away if you are interested in spices or chocolate, they also have ice cream and spice tours. The Magic Bus was our favorite food spot near Manuel Antonio. Rancho Tipico don Juan horseback riding tour was THE Highlight of our trip.

We loved our stay at Olmans, it’s beautiful, and Olman and Co are fantastic responsive hosts! Would recommend this to all!

From the first communication to the departure, everything brings together an excellent one. Beautiful house, super equipped and clean. We loved it, and we hope to return.

We absolutely loved everything about the place. It was spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. Location-wise, it's about a 10-15 min drive to Quepos/Manuel Antonio, which was perfect for us (we enjoyed the relaxing and tranquil stay away from the busy parts of the city). We really enjoyed the pool and took full advantage of the kitchen and washing/drying facilities (which honestly work better than my machines at home!). Britt was an awesome host, super responsive and even helped set up a Catamaran sunset cruise (highly recommended, this was one of the highlights of our trip!!) as well as a tour of Manuel Antonio park. Britt was also very accommodating regarding our check in/check out. Overall it was a perfect way to end our time in Costa Rica. I would highly recommend!

Cozy house and has an open plan, so its very open (which i loved) A lot of closet space available in 2 of the rooms. lovely backyard. Has an outside grill which was very nice. Ample bathroom with hot water. The host was very friendly and made our stay amazing. Ample parking. Right next to a lil family fast food joint with a lot of options as well as a little market. Keep in mind, this is on a main road, so there is some noise early morning, but it's manageable. Would absolutely stay here again!

We got a really warm welcome from Dennis (the owner), who lives there a few months a year. We didn't get to meet Cindy. He shared all sorts of tips for local activities, restaurants, markets, places to visit, ... He took us to a magnificent waterfall on a private property. We were there alone, in the middle of the tropical rainforest and got to swim in the refreshing waters. This was definitely a highlight of our trip. Dennis is the best host we ever encountered. If we could give him 10 stars, we would! He cooked for us and we had so much fun! Of course he gives you your privacy too. We were free to use whatever was in the house, the food in the fridge, herbs, drinking water, home made juices, etc. Keep in mind that he lives here (when there are no guests), so there's some stuff of him in the house. The house is very beautifully decorated and cosy. No AC, but there are lots of fans to keep you cool and also a refreshing outdoor shower. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking a nice meal, and then some ... The bed in the master bedroom is very good. The one in the other bedroom ok, but that is a personal thing of course. All windows in the house have mesh to keep the bugs out. Very effective! There's hot water in the shower and the kitchen! You get to experience the real Tico lifestyle here, away from the hustle and bustle from the tourist places. It's located in a small town with almost only locals. There are very few amenities in the town itself, but neighbouring villages have whatever you need and Quepos is just 20 minutes away. A little Spanish goes a long way to get what you want. The town is relatively quiet (small town noises) and well situated to explore the surroundings. Dennis is a birder, who puts bananas in the trees of his garden which attracts a lot of birds. You can watch all sorts of stunning birds up close from your comfy chair on the porch. All in all a top place to visit and the warm, welcoming host made this an unforgettable experience.

Odalis discovered an unexpected issue just hours before we were to check in. We ended up choosing to go to another AirBnB, but Odalis was actively working to fix the issue and seemed to have it fixed just shortly after we left. She was kind and working very hard to resolve the issue, but understood that we had been driving all day and had to go to another spot. I would still rent from Odalis on another trip.

Beautiful area! Quiet yet also close to small shopping! Horseback riding is worth it. It was beautiful!!!

My friends and I visited Karla's house, from the moment of booking Karla was extremely attentive. She helped us with the concerns we had, the kitchen is beautiful and has everything you need at home. The area is very quiet and there are supermarkets nearby. The house has a lot of space and the beds are comfortable ideal for large groups, there are board games, ranch, grill, everything you need I recommend it 100% and it is definitely a place I would return to.

Very nice villa! Comfortable, spacious and very clean. I would definitely stay again with friends or family. The property is beautiful and Kathia was very nice and responsive.

The truth I do not regret for anything to have stayed in this beautiful and peaceful place, this is a wonderful environment in the middle of coffee zones. The view from the beautiful room, which we enjoy both day and night, the neighborhood and all the people from the very friendly and reliable nearby places. We moved to the center of San Marcos where we rest in a splendid park and enjoy the ancient structures of the school, as well as the beautiful building of the temple, as well as everything, immersed in those landscapes and lush vegetation. In a few minutes we move to Santa María de Dota and San Pablo de León Cortés as this accommodation is practically in the middle of both places. José is an excellent host, but his parents were also aware of our comfort: Don Marvin and doña Emilia, all super special people. The internet was great. Of course I 100% recommend this gorgeous place

I love Susana!!! We love her!! She is the best, and so is her beautiful family. Home was great and outdoor living was even better, I cooked outside daily, showered outside with squirrel monkeys, a horse and the jungle and my kid and mom who can’t swim enjoyed the heck out of the pool! You are 15 minutes away from Manuel Antonio. Everything you will need is a walk away from groceries and food. There was nothing we needed she did not accommodate, she was our host, friend, bug killer, chauffeur (cause we couldn’t find her day 1, it was dark and late when we made it, she said stop, send me your location and met up with us and we followed her home), and the best heart and energy!! I genuinely think you are a Rockstar Susana!!! I will always come look for you when I’m in Costa Rica and if you come to Florida call me girl !!!! 💙❤️💙🙏🏽😊🎉🥰

Carmen, your house is a luxury! Really a place where we could fully rest We loved every detail (coffee, sugar, extra towels) The bathroom is wonderful. It had everything you need to take a relaxing shower

Very nice, tidy, clean and the beds very comfortable. It is in the center close to restaurants and supermarkets, I would definitely stay again

I was very pleased with Albins Airbnb. him and his family was very attentive and caring. we truly enjoyed our stay.

Lovely, peaceful place with lovely surroundings. If you don’t mind being a little outside of town this apartment is perfect. We felt relaxed the whole time and were able to enjoy our evenings having a glass of wine on the balcony. There is also a nice common pool which is great for a dip on a hot day. If you are travelling for a few weeks like we were, there is also a washing machine where you can do some laundry. We loved having this option. All in all great!

Very new apartment, with great amenities. Used gym and pool several times

Great place to stay. Thanks again Miguel!

Beautiful condo nestled in Manuel Antonio. It was a 15 minute walk to one of the best beaches in Costa Rica. We had lots of amazing restaurants that were easy to walk too. Our host was so friendly and conversed with us daily to see how we were doing and how our trip was going. I will definitely go back.

The place is quite nice inside, very clean and comfortable beds and furniture. There is no noise from people.

Lovely place, clean and large place with everything you need. Close to manuel Antonio national park (by car). The only downfall is the old TV that’s barely work but that doesn’t really matter as you’ll probably gonna spent most of the day out. All in all very good place and Marcos and his family were amazing hostess

A very nice, lovingly furnished, clean apartment. I slept well. Garage and elevator were comfortable. Bryan responded to my inquiries immediately and very kindly.

The apartment was very nice, it had everything you needed, there was tranquility and the building facilities beautiful. The only thing is that the bathrooms were not very clean, or details like windows (the frame when opening), or mirrors. I think it's not the owner's fault, but the ones in charge for the cleaning then I take the opportunity to let him know. After there the truth was great, I would stay again.

This place is unbelievable. It is top of the line. The photos don’t actually do it justice. The view from the deck is unbelievable. We saw monkeys, parrots and even a sloth the day we left. You have access to a concierge which we didn’t use at all. The location is great with access to stores and restaurants. The rooms were a bit loud with motorbikes on the street, but very easy to tune out. The apartment itself was always cool with a clean, fully stocked kitchen, beach towels to use as well as the washer and dryer were very nice. This place is pricey but you definitely get what you pay for. Loved every bit of it.
