Great, spacious condo. Loved the layout and 1st floor, poolside location. Equipped with everything you need (including beach towels and chairs), and hosts are very communicative and helpful.
Great location, pool was great for the kids and the surf beach was just across the street.

The property and location was perfect for our family of five (including 3 teenagers)! Plenty of space to stretch out but a great table for us to come together to play cards at night. The pool right outside our door was perfect (hello swim up bar!) and the resort was walkable to all our dinners. I’d highly recommend!

We had an amazing spring break in Tamarindo. The condo was beautiful and perfect for our family of five. We loved the swim up pool and the close proximity to town and the beach. We were able to walk everywhere. The resort was also a perfect location for a multi family vacation.

Seemcurity, staffing and especially the surf coaches were amazing. I would 100% come back to this condo. Soft beds, good pillows, well stocked kitchen.

We booked this home for two families, eight people total and it was not a letdown!! Beautiful home that was well stocked throughout, this place was a hit with everyone. You have full access to the massive pool with a swim up bar, and the beach is just across the street. Plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance as well! Highly recommend!!!

This was a great stay and we loved the location of the condo. We had a few challenges (our key cards weren’t activated, the battery on the safe died) and communication with property manager took about 24 hours, which is generally fine (but was frustrating when our wallets and cash were trapped in the safe). Condo itself was amazing: plenty of bathrooms, bedrooms, and great AC. Generally, great stay and would stay again.

This was an excellent property with access to everything. It was a comfortable condo that had access to the beachfront resort amenities. Kelly and Olber at Bluezone Properties were so responsive and attentive. We were only in country for a short time and they scheduled many of our excursions and transportation. Everything was top notch.

We really enjoyed the space and the proximity this condo was to everything we would need while visiting Tamarindo. The beach was close and it was really nice to have beach chairs and towels to use. The condo is walking distance to a grocery mart and many restaurants and shops. We were there with our 4 boys and an aunt. Plenty to do for everyone. We loved it!

We LOVED this property. The location and view is amazing. The condo is huge and the AC worked incredibly (important to us). The condo wasn’t the cleanest (mostly under the beds etc) but we got there early and may have rushed them a little. A little pricy but seemingly worth Jt!

Very clean and well appointed. Excellent location to the pool, beach, shops and restaurants. Check-in was a bit of a problem in that the link we got took us to a gate that was closed due to construction. We had directions to the office where they gave us an alternative entrance.
