About this property

INTIMATE VILLA WITH POOL MINUTES TO 8 UNIQUELY AMAZING BEACHES UBER ACCESSIBLE.

Welcome to our Costa Rican Villa retreat. We are located approximately 10 minutes North of Tamarindo which is a bustling surf town, where you and your family can enjoy many beachfront Restaurants, Shops, Spa's and a fun night life. We are a short easy drive or UBER to more than 8 of the best beaches along the "Gold Coast" of Guanacaste. Great for Surfing, Snorkeling, Kayaking, Paddle boarding or just relaxing. We had the fortunate option to purchase anywhere around Tamarindo and chose this area because we love the town of Tamarindo and all of the hustle and bustle but we didn't want to live in the middle of it. We preferred living in a quiet central location with a short and easy drive to all of the amazing beaches and activities. When you stay at our Villa, you will also get Dominic, he can be your personal concierge while in Costa Rica. Dominic speaks several languages and has extensive local contacts for rental cars, Volcano adventures, fishing & Sailing boats, surfing lessons and virtually anything else you need or might want to do. Dominic has saved our guest hundreds of dollars when booking excursions. Our goal is to make this trip as memorable and as safe possible. Perfect for couples, small families or a few close friends. Dipping pool with Ranchetta for additional space to chill. Public transportation directly in front of our villa including UBER now, available should you decide not to rent a vehicle. Proud to be a Premier Partner Host. Our home is strictly non-smoking non-vaping.

Casa Castaway

We loved our stay. The house was amazing and we loved the pool with the resident iguana. Fonz took a lot of time to talk to us about local recommendations from things to do, to places to eat. I really appreciated his availability. Dominic and Maria were super helpful too! A great place to stay!!!

Great spot to stay in CR

Wow, we really felt like we were in the perfect spot—both isolated and connected! Just a quick 15-minute drive from the lively coast, our family had the chance to unwind and enjoy the sounds of monkeys nearby. The house was super cozy and had everything we could possibly need. We’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great getaway!

Amazing stay near Tamarindo

Casa Castaway was a fantastic place to stay in Costa Rica. The pool and patio were inviting. The vibe of the house is a so cool between the surfboard decor and local art. The house is well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. The location is close to many awesome beaches. We’d love to come back again.

Wonderful Vacation !!

We cannot say enough about Casa Castaway!!Alfons was very helpful with his recommendations from grocery shopping to restaurants and all the beautiful beaches that are in the area . The villa is amazing, comfortable and very clean , everything you can think of is there at your disposal. A home away from home .We enjoyed our daily breakfasts on the patio , relaxing by the pool or under the cabana and barbecuing an occasional dinner. The villas location is great, not right in the heart of Tamarindo but close enough and the grocery stores are not far. Domenic is a treat . He has many stories and it was a pleasure to meet him and Maria. Very special people . Pantera visited daily and we looked forward to her welcoming us back each day. Do not hesitate to book Casa Castaway. Our two weeks flew by and we look forward to visiting again some day soon .Thank you for sharing your amazing home . :)

It has it all!

Our stay at Casa Castaway was terrific! This house has everything you think you may have left at home and more. We used the kitchen and the grill and spent a lot of time in the pool. The dog who lives on the property was so friendly and we enjoyed seeing him every morning. This place is private but is also close to it all.

Family of 4

I don’t think we’ve stayed in a property that was better stocked. You don’t need to bring a thing. There’s markets very nearby, and the location is central to almost everything. The house is bigger than it looks in the pictures and comfortably slept our family with a whole different room to spare. Pool is beautiful.

Monkey Paradise

We loved our stay at Casa Castaway. Our favorite part was the space in the home for 3 adults and 3 BIG KIDS:):) We got to see the monkeys during the am and pm moving their families down the creek. This was a very peaceful location far enough away from Tamarindo beach to enjoy without the large crowd. We look forward to staying here again.

Loved this place! The mattresses were so comfortable - we fell asleep as soon as our head hit the pillow. We loved eating breakfast outside in the mornings before we started our day and dinner after we came off the beach. Would def recommend. Dominic was a great source of info on beaches and activities!

The Perfect Home Away From Home

We had a fantastic stay at this lovely property! The location is perfectly located and just a $10-$15 Uber ride to various towns and beautiful beaches. It’s also right next to Guanacaste Children's Community Center, which was a big plus for our young kids! The house itself was wonderful! We particularly enjoyed the outdoor shower and the nice lounge area by the pool, which was ideal for relaxing and catching up on naps. The daily pool service was a great touch, keeping everything clean and inviting. We were delighted by the abundance of wildlife around the property, which added a special charm to our stay. The fully stocked kitchen made it easy to cook meals at home. Multiple surfboards, snorkel sets, and beach necessities made our days at the beach feel like we were locals. The property literally comes with everything you could ever need for a home away from home. Dominic and Maria were such a delight and provided us with plenty of recommendations for local dining and activities. Their hospitality truly enhanced our experience. We felt well taken care of and would recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique, equipped, and convenient rental!

Why they chose this property

We had the option to purchase anywhere around Tamarindo and chose this area because we love the town of Tamarindo and all of the hustle and bustle but we didn't want to live in the middle of it. We preferred living in a central location with a short and easy drive to all of the amazing beaches and activities. We wanted to be close to the private schools and close to shopping in addition to being close to all of the amazing beaches.

What makes this property unique

A quiet and centralized location to many different beaches and activities. From our door step you can see monkeys, flocks of parrots and parakeets, iguanas and at night, fire flies.
