Studio Azul is just minutes from the beach and located in a quiet neighborhood.
North American comfort describes Studio Azul, one of two rental units at Tranquilo, just minutes from the beach in the desirable Canada Hill neighborhood. Studio Azul sleeps up to 2 and the other unit, Studio Verde, sleeps up to 4 (see listing for Tranquilo Verde Studio). Both studios come equipped with a fully loaded kitchenette, quality queen size mattresses, fully screened, and AC, just to name a few. Tranquilo Studios will provide you with ease and comfort upon your return from fun filled days at the beach, numerous nature/adventure tours within driving distance, enjoying some ping pong, or just lounging at the main house’s pool with its ocean views. Maximum stay is 21 days. Original owners for the past 13 years from California, live on the property and are available to assist with your vacation needs.
Just minutes by foot to the beach and village of Esterillos Oeste, you will enjoy great year around surf, giant tide pools, and lush vegetation. Wildlife is abundant in the area with White Face Monkeys, Scarlet Macaws, Green Parrots, Coatimundis, Poison Dart Frogs, Morpho Butterflies, Iguanas, a Turtle Preserve, and much more. You can literally walk for miles in both directions on the beach and most days not run into a single soul and have this amazing nature all to yourself.
Located in the hills of this fishing village, where you can daily witness fishermen taking their boats from the sand through the surf, the village of Esterillos Oeste offers ‘typical’ restaurants, Trip Advisor’s highest rated Los Almendros restaurant, a few surf shops with board rentals and lessons, and two small grocery stores.
If you'd like to spice things up or in need of a little more action, Playa Jaco, just 20 minutes north of Tranquilo Studios, is known as the Las Vegas de Costa Rica, which offers casinos, fine dining, sushi restaurants, night clubs, and jazz bars. Spa treatments and souvenir shopping are also highly sought out activities in Playa Jaco as well. Or head south 45 minutes to Manual Antonio and the National Nature Preserve and more.
You can also enjoy the many activities and tours that Costa Rica and the area have to offer, such as: Canopy/Zipline Tours, Horseback Riding, Monkey Tours, Coffee Plantation Tours, Volcano Tours, Sportfishing, Kayaking, Golfing, Waterfall Tours, ATV Tours, White Water Rafting, and so much more!

About Kristy y Kurt
In 2003, we traveled to Costa Rica with our daughters who were then 12 and 9. We all fell in love with Costa Rica, especially Esterillos Oeste, so we boldly decided to take a life adventure and moved to CR in July of 2004. We purchased our property, built our house and two vacation studios, and lived there full time until 2009. In July 2009, we returned to California for our daughters' further educational needs. Seven years later in late October 2016 after our youngest graduated from university, we were finally able to return to living full time in this beautiful part of Costa Rica. We are always looking for beach volleyball players too!
Kristy y Kurt purchased this Studio in 2004
Why Kristy y Kurt chose Esterillos Oeste
One day while living in Costa Rica with our daughters, we were asking each other what we loved about living here. There were many great answers, but the one from our youngest, who was then 12, was the best. She said, 'I love that every day brings a new surprise from nature; you just never know what you are going to see!' So true were these wise words from our youngest; from a crocodile trying to cross the road during a nightly storm, or a tiny fingernail sized baby gecko being born, or the Scarlett Macaws flying overhead on their daily route from almond tree to almond tree. The nature here never stops amazing and thrilling us. It's always an adventure! And being beach people, who surf, boogie board, play beach volleyball, and shell hunt, we love the beach of Esterillos Oeste with its tree lined border that houses white faced monkeys, year around great surf, and so much more. Last, but not least, the locals (ticos and gringos) that call this place home and those passing through while on vacation make Esterillos Oeste a truly special place.
What makes this Studio unique
Besides the the comfort of each studio, the pool, the ease to the beach and town, the cool people (ticos and gringos), the great surf, and the abundant wildlife, you are going to love that this property houses a LARGE back up water tank with a pressure pump so that you will never go without water which is not always a given living in Costa Rica.
