Not only was Mark very easy to work with, his tastes in decor and choice of location couldn't be better. My fiance and I stayed in this condo in February of 2011, and let me tell you, it was the perfect end to our trip. The beach is just moments away, and we felt like we had an entire stretch to ourselves. Just gorgeous. We met some really nice locals down the way, as well, and spent some time laughing and enjoying Costa Rica's finest coffee with them on several occassions. As for the condo, it was just perfect. The bed was comfy, the amenities were in great condition, and again, the decor was subtle and tasteful. We spent time on the lanai every evening; as a matter of fact, I proposed to my fiance in the hammock! Thanks for a fantastic experience, Mark. If you are reading this, you've stumbled upon the best condo in the complex, hands down. PURA VIDA!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, adventure seekers, romantic getaway.

I visited Mark's condo in September 2010. It was my first visit to Costa Rica. Everyone I have talked to about Costa Rica has said they have had a positive experiance so, it was my turn to discover for myself. The condo was clean and came with everything you my need. There is not a 7-11 down the block so have your snacks and supplies there with you. You are pretty much in the middle of the jungle with a awsome view of the ocean. The time of the year I was there is the end of the rainy season. We did not have any more rain then you would expect in the tropics. In the evenings this it made for some awsome lightning shows ! This place is alive, its not a condo most tourist stay at. They stay in town where you hear cars and nightclubs. If you want this its not that far away and can be fun. Where the condo is, you wake up to the sound of nature. One day I heard a comotion outside and go out to see at least 300 parrots in the tree right there and watched them for half an hour. This was my exploritory trip. I went swimming, surfing, ate at some really cool restruants, took a drive down the coast. We did a group trip to Nicaragua, there was 6 of us on this adventure. I would recomend this trip, it was fun and informitive about the region and history where we were. I was expecting a south american type country. To my suprise it hade a real Caribbean look and feel to it. It is clean, safe, (just don't be dumb) the people are beautiful. We we coming back from suffing Playa Grande one day and there was a local kid hitching a ride. He had missed his bus and was headed to work in Tamarindo. I knew just by the vibe of the area this was fine. He was a nice guy and welcomed us. I went for, I think 8 days. Next time I know I'll need at least 2 weeks. Now I know why Mark goes for months at a time. We had a great time and I wasn't ready to leave when the time came to go. I could go on for ever. If you're thinking about going, Go ! I'll be back....

Year Purchased: 2006
About the owner: I have been traveling back and forth from California to Costa Rica for over 10 years. I still find this part of Costa Rica to be my favorite. This is the perfect place for the baby boomer: close enough to the fun areas but far enough away to enjoy the quiet and gentle sounds of nature.
Why the Owner Chose Playa Conchal:
This is my most favorite area in all of Costa Rica. It's a short walk to the beach and also a central location to get to many different areas.
It is close to some great golf courses and close to some of the best beaches in all of Costa Rica. We also have some great un-crouded surfing spots close by.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
Walking distance to the awarding winning Playa Conchal Beach.
We have a surfboard, snorkel and even a kayak and paddle for your use. No extra charge!
There are 9 National Parks just a 1 to 3 hour (scenic drive) away - including the famous Arenal volcano. Horse back riding, canopy tour and ATV tours can be set-up from the front desk.
2 DVD players with movies, two TV's, and wireless Internet access in the unit.
