My husband and I stayed at TikiVillas for 5 nights earlier in April. It was absolutely one of,if not THE best places I have ever been. Thomas was super helpful as we asked him questions about what to do pretty much every morning and night! The included breakfasts were excellent - great choices and very filling - exactly how you...

We stayed here for 2 nights during our 3 week trip in Costa Rica and this place was our favorite. Coming from the Corcovado jungle the luxurious villa felt like paradise. The villas are a great place to relax. The room is very comfortable, the view from the villa is stunning and just to sit on the porch and do... More

Partly because of so many fantastic tripadvisor reviews and very reasonable rates, we opted to celebrate our 25th anniversary here in the beautiful and restful Costa Rican jungle rather than a crowded resort or cruise. This couldn't have been more perfect for us! TikiVillas is absolutely enchanting! From the grounds we spotted sloth, monkeys, toucans, tanagers, dazzling butterflies including blue... More

We were due to spend 3 nights at TikiVillas and loved it so much that we ended up there for 6 nights - I think that is a good indication. The location is up a very steep and treacherous hill but once you make it, it is well worth it. There are 5 individual villas making the place feel very... More

Thank you very much for your wonderful 5 star review! We very pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay, pool, views and jungle shower. It was indeed a pleasure to host you. We are sorry our music selection in reception was not to your liking, we would gladly have changed it. We normally play a selection of Samba, Salsa, Merengue... More

Just returned from a week at TikiVillas . . . what a great place to relax and feel like you are part of the jungle. Our Villa, #3, had the best view of the surrounding jungle and the Pacific. We slept each night with the large, louvered doors wide open across one whole side of the villa. You could hear... More

My spouse and I spent 5 nights here, and absolutely loved it. We felt like we were at our own private little paradise as we had the pool mostly to ourselves all week. We had the chance to see white face monkeys, howler monkeys, Tucan, a sloth , a praying mantis and a variety of other interesting birds. The sloth... More

All of the positive comments made below are absolutely true. My husband and I loved Tiki Villas. This place is exceptionally amazing, beautiful, and a perfect escape from reality. Tiki Villas provides a rustic jungle feel (complete with sloth, monkey, and toucan sightings) without feeling dirty, desolate, or unsafe. This is definitely one of the great hotels of the world....

The resort consists of five individual villas plus the main lounge. The natural setting is stunning as we could view the mountains, ocean and gardens sitting on our very large balcony. Toucans and about twenty other species of birds were viewed on property as well as a sloth, capuchin monkeys and howler monkeys. They have a nice path through the... More

My Husband, myself and a good friend recently visited TikiVillas and were absolutely blown away by both the location and the quality of hospitality shown us by Thomas and Cindy, the amazing owners. TikiVillas is located between Dominical and Uvita, in the southern part of Costa Rica, which is far less touristed than the north, and in my opinion, a... More

My wife and I chose to make this our third stop on our honeymoon and after plugging in the GPS and asking the front desk at the previous hotel to confirm directions, we set off on our way. However, our GPS and directions didn't indicate that Highway 27 was flowing in one direction this day (west to east towards San... More
