  The condo was so much nicer than I expected. It is a five minute walk through the pool courtyard, across the street, then through the Diria Hotel lobby and pool area to get to the beach. The beach is great for kids, slopes out very gently, there are waves, but they break far out and come in gently. My 2 and 4 year old could play in the water. The beach is very large. Condo property feels secure, has gated entrance. We shopped at the Automercado for groceries. The condo was well stocked and so nice. Great washer/dryer. View from balcony is of the ocean. There were beach towels, cooler, boogie board and chairs to use. This is the nicest condo we have stayed at and have used homeaway/vrbo mant times. Dave was great to work with and very helpful, provided directions/recommendations for the area. Would love to come back to see the other things we didn't have time to see. Recommend Monteverde (cloud forest-4 hour drive), Rincon de la Vieja (volcano/yellowstone-like-2.25 h drive) and do the estuary tour. We booked on the beach, saw howler monkeys, alligators, birds! Diria has large pool with sloping sides. Lots of chairs, didn't use it, went to the beach as it was so nice. Friendly staff. Rent a 4 wheel drive if you plan to travel to volcanoes! Very bumpy roads, with potholes and very large gravel. Loved it!!!

  First time in Costa Rica and 1st time using VRBO. Both great experiences! This was a beautiful condo that looks EXACTLY as depicted in the photos! In a great location right in the center of Tamarindo which has a gorgeous beach and loads of terrific restaurants! Loved having the full kitchen so we had the choice to eat in or out and the owner even provided a cooler that we were able to bring our Margaritas and lunch poolside. The pool at the condos was spectacular and the chaise lounges were plentiful. Even has a pool bar for anyone interested in purchasing a drink or food! Took an all day trip to Rincon de Vieja booked through Xplore Costa Rica which has good reviews on Tripadvisor and located right in town. Fun, full day of horseback riding, waterslide, mud baths, hot springs and zip lining with a great buffet lunch! Would love to go back someday and stay near the rainforest/cloudforest in order to see more of this beautiful country! Would definitely recommend this condo to anyone staying in Tamarindo! Thank you Dave & Julie!

  We had an amazing time while staying in Tamarindo, this condo made it so easy to get anywhere, it's centrally located. The condo is decked out with everything you will need and has a relaxing feel to it, so nice to come back too after the beach, dinner, pool, etc. The views are nice and the beds are comfortable. Plenty of room for a family. The comlex offers awesome amenities, we loved our stay here!

  This condo truly made our stay in Tamarindo extra special. We loved the location (close to everything) and we especially loved the privacy and comfort of a condominium vs. the hotel room. The furniture/decor is absolutely beautiful and obviously well thought out. Hotel amenities were appreciated for ambiance and convenience. The owner was very helpful from point of condo inquiry through our return. The free phone service is certainly appreciated and welcome to travelers like myself with family members back home. Thanks for offering such a wonderful amenity! Tamarindo has quite a few restaurants that would entice many palates. However, most are open air and most streets are not paved. Best to wear light clothing and comfortable shoes and when it rains, shoes that can be cleaned fairly easily (rain creates sticky red muddy streets). Overall, town is adorable and people are absolutely wonderful. Must do a few tours to see the sights. Loved the ziplining and natural spa!

  We had stayed at the Hotel Diria for 9 years before staying in this gorgeous condo! What fun to have more space, the option for cooking and access to all the Diria property! This is unlike any other condo option in Tamarindo. Others are condo only....this gets you a great condo and hotel amenities! Walk to amazing restaurants....walk to local supermarkets, exercise gym, yoga class and don't forget to walk the beach! You can loaf, take tours or make your own plans! Surfing is very big in Tamarindo...we are not surfers, but enjoy seeing all the acitivity. The condo is elegantly decorated....and the management company is helpful. What you see in the pictures is what you get! We plan to return!!!

  If you are looking for a high class place this is the one! The place is as described. The location is prime. You can walk into town an yet the place is set very privately. The pool for the condos is actually bigger and nicer that the one at the Diria's hotel. Nice resort and nice condominium.

  WOW!!!!!! What a wonderful two week vacation we had! I visited Costa Rica for the first time with my husband, son who is five and daughter who is two. I have been to many other tropical resorts but Costa Rica is absolutely incredible with that special feeling of no stress and total relaxation. The beach was beautiful with warm clear water. There was a little wave that was perfect my kids to boogie board or for my son to begin to learn to surf. The pools were gorgeous too!!!! The kids were in the water all day. The food was delicious at all the restaurants!!! There were a lot of other activities to do other than beach/pool- fishing, horseback riding, canopy tours, sunset sails etc. All of these wonderful things were just topped off by how gorgeous our condo was! Even though I didn't want the day to end, I was excited to get back to our beautiful condo. I MISS IT SO MUCH!!! I can't wait to go back next year. (I hope no one takes our weeks after reading this review!! ha ha) Also the condo owner, David Selden, was truly a pleasure to do business with. He was very honest, helpful and readily available if we needed him. What you see in his property description is exactly what you get. Overall my experience was a 10! It was simply AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!!!! Thank you David Selden!!!!

  We stayed at this condo for 10 nights and enjoyed every second. Beautiful condo, beautiful grounds, gorgeous pool. We actually went to look at some of the other condos(different buildings) around tamarindo we were considering and were 110% satisfied with our choice. We feel that having the hotel amenties available was definitely to our advantage. The pool was by far the nicest and largest that we saw. You also have the option of using the chairs at the hotel on the beach, which you wouldn't have with other condos. The condo is basically in the middle of town so everything is close. I would absolutely recommend this property to everyone going to Tamarindo. Some restaurants suggestion, El Coconut(went twice, our favorite), Seasons by Shalomy, La Baula, Wok and Roll. Their is no shortage of amazing restaurants in Tamarindo. While in Tamarindo we rented a car for 5 days. If you've never driven in Costa Rica this can be an adventure. We all felt we only really needed the car for about 2 days. The roads to the other beaches are not coastal highways but mostly gravel roads in the bush. We did find it worth driving to Playa Flamingo/Conchal and spent the day there. If you are doing any tours, do not try to drive there yourself. Their is no way we would have ever found the boat dock at Palo Verde or the Hotel Guachipelin(Rincon de la Vieja). And yes, it takes a long time to go a short distance in Costa Rica, the roads/signage are not like they are in North Amercia. We would definitely go back to Tamarindo and wouldn't consider staying anywhere else but this condo. Hope this helps. jenn and marc Hope this helps.

  Unbelievable place to stay! Very nice Kitchen, living room, and incredible rooms. Great location in Tamarindo, right next to the beach, grocery store, great restaurants, and great night life. Awesome patio to enjoy beautiful sunsets and great view of the ocean and coastline. Great pool with poolside bar. Very safe with 24/7 security, zero complaints!
