Welcome to Casa Zen! We hope you enjoy our condo but are also mindful of keeping it beautiful for your stay as well as future guests. Please no smoking on the property. Our condos are quiet and peaceful so keep the parties in town and be mindful of those who may be sleeping after 10pm.

We are in a climate that attracts lots of creepy crawly friends so please keep food in the kitchen and be mindful of keeping the counters free of standing food and excess crumbs.

Finally, this lovely country is all about conservation and as such, their septic systems are incredibly delicate. Please remember no paper (including toilet paper) in the toilets. That`s right, toilet paper goes in the trashcans only. We have provided receptacles with bags and lids for your convenience.

The location is unbearable!

The condo is conveniently located in the heart of the town— 2 mins walk to the beach and right behind an upscale food court. The property is well maintained and the communications with the property manager is super smooth. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Tamarindo,

Modern and convenient

This nice, subtle and modern condo, located a couple of blocks from the beach and the main strip is a great place to stay if you're coming for a quick getaway and want to have everything within a short walking distance. The property was nicely kept, clean, secure and very spacious. Thanks for hosting us!!

This condo is great. The location is very central to everything in Tamarindo. We were able to park the car and walk to everything we did. We had a glitch with check-in, due to the cleaning service, which delayed our check in for two hours. This was out of Michele‘s control and she did offer a 100 refund. We appreciated her quick response as it was Christmas Eve. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Location and Very Safe!

The condo is located within walking distance to the beach and Tamarindo's attractions. As a woman traveling alone, I loved that I drove into the underground garage, and was able to use the elevator to reach my floor. Security measures have been taken with door code, garage door code and security guard. The elevator was so helpful in transporting luggage and groceries and my 82-year old aunt. Beyond my expectations.

Cute spacious Tamarindo Condo

Great location in the core of Tamarindo. Easy to get around, walking distance. If you prefer or like an area livelier, as the little food market is right down the block about 3-minute walk down. You can hear the music during night coming from there. Different atmosphere compared to previous location I've stayed at. Pictures are accurate and this unit is quite spacious as each bedroom has its own separate washroom. Although the water pressure for the shower and water from fridge to drink was quite low. Due to calcium built up. The unit was well equipped. Overall, it's a nice place to stay. Thank you for hosting!

Lovely condo in a great location

We loved our stay at Bocaraca condos. The location is great. Just steps down the road to the beach. Monites to all our favourite restaurants in town. Michelle was very responsive when we had questions. The condo is lovely - very well maintained and a pleasure to stay in. Highly recommend it. We are hoping to be back next winter.
