Great location right in front of Suizo's break which was great for our kids. We were still close enough to town to not feel isolated but far enough away to miss the crowds. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

Close proximity to town and all its amenities. On the beach at arguably th best surfing spot in Tamarindo. Pool was small but perfect. Grounds were well maintained and safety was never in question. Howler Monkeys every day through the treetops. Ant eater, iguanas, and Ramona, oh my. Note: 2 separate buildings with separate entrances. Fine for our teenage boys.

Right on the beach. My daughter is handicapped so this was perfect. Great location, close to town too. Nice set up for adult kids, everyone had their own space. Huge lot, lots of trees really pretty. Refreshing pool after a hot day. Jonathan was attentive and great, we didn’t need housekeeping every day, and they were very accommodating on leaving us be. Would rent again

Very nice property with a lot of space on fenced in compound. You are beach level unlike some properties in this area which are on a bluff. Beautiful view with easy access to beginner surfing break. The courtyard immediately outside the gate is a publicly used area - much of the time for a couple of massage tables which can be a nice perk! Very close to restaurants and shops though we found having a golf cart to be very helpful. Be aware there are two separate buildings on this property, which was great for us being a family with adult children. Daily housekeeping and groundskeeper did a very nice job. Be ready for some local wildlife to greet you, we saw iguanas, monkeys, lots of exotic birds and the apparently ubiquitous squirrels and raccoons. Jonathan the property manager was excellent in helping us plan our stay and deal with issues during our visit. He made a 4/5 star property into a 5/5 star experience. We love Tamarindo and will definitely be back.

Beautiful home in a great location!

Our family of six had a great stay at Casa Blue Lagoon. The house is beautiful and well appointed. Such a great location, too! The beach is beautiful! Close to everything Tamarindo! It was also a great base for us to take all the day trips to the rain forest, doing river cruises, and ATVs. Jonathan was great with directions, communication, and even made sure we had coffee, snacks and drinks upon our arrival. All the iguanas and Howler monkeys were such an added bonus! Beds were so comfortable!!! Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic Family Vacation

We had a wonderful time in Tamarindo. Casa Blue Lagoon is an ideal location right on the beach! Numerous restaurants within walking distance…especially nice to hit a Happy Hour right on the beach. Restaurants here do charge a 23% surcharge and be careful about exchange rates and not being overcharged on 2 for 1 drink specials. Beautiful location for rest relaxation and beach activities.

Beachfront fun

We were in Costa Rica to have fun time prior to the rush of Christmas. Blue Lagoon is a great spot with an ideal location between downtown Tamarindo and Langosta. Several of the better restaurants are very close and yet is still feels private and a little removed from the hustle of Tamarindo.
