Acerca de este alojamiento
¿Cómo sobre una casa privada de menos de un hotel o condominio? 100 yardas a la arena
¿Por qué pagar por un apartamento o una habitación de hotel cuando podría tener un hogar entero para vosotros solos por mucho menos? (En serio - Si no me cree, consulte las Notas '' justo antes de la sección de Servicios a continuación). Si sus sueños tropicales incluyen un deseo de privacidad, un entorno maravilloso jardín, un patio trasero privado, y una comodidad que ofrece un hogar lejos del hogar, Casa de las Olas (Casa de las Olas) podría ser lo que estás buscando . En la Casa de las Olas, al llegar nos gusta pensar que 'Drop In' a la vida !!!
Este 2 dormitorios, 2 baños casa privada es uno de los pocos, residencias unifamiliares personales a disposición del público en Tamarindo. Situado a medio camino entre Tamarindo y Langosta, Casa de las Olas está escondido del bullicio de la ciudad en una zona tranquila, en primera clase que está a sólo 100 yardas de la más segura playa de la piscina en la zona, y un corto de dos minutos a pie de uno de los mejores restaurantes en Tamarindo. 'Town' es un hermoso paseo de 10 minutos por la playa.
Su anfitrión reconoce que cuando usted está buscando un alquiler de vacaciones, usted tiene muchas opciones. Al compartir mi casa con usted, mi objetivo es proporcionarle una experiencia tropical memorable, a un costo que es menor que muchas de las habitaciones a un precio moderado de hoteles o complejos de apartamentos llenos de gente.
Si prefiere un ambiente privado, se puede empezar a entender por qué esta casa se ha convertido en uno de los más buscados después de propiedades en la zona de Tamarindo. Ya se trate de surf, pesca, buceo, snorkel, explorar, leer o simplemente vieja relajante en las hamacas, dejar que la Casa de las Olas ser su oasis tropical.
Notas del verdadero "valor" de la residencia: Después de regresar recientemente, realmente empecé a entender lo que es una gran ganga esta casa se compara con la mayoría de otras propiedades en la zona. Constantemente estoy para ser dicho que soy "bajo precio" y que "las fotografías no le hacen justicia. ' Puedo ofrecerle este "valor" porque compré esta propiedad hace 30 años (mucho antes de que se descubriera a Tamarindo). Aunque probablemente no funcione para todos ya que no tiene piscina, lo desafío a encontrar una mejor oferta, especialmente cuando se considera que la casa viene con 2 tablas de surf y 2 bicicletas de estilo 'Beach Cruiser'; Tablas de boogie; Enfriadores y otros "juguetes". Y, cuando estoy en la residencia (tengo un pequeño estudio 'casita' por encima del garaje que me quedo en ocasiones), que incluso tiene su propia casa en Costa Rica asesor - deseándole lo mejor en su planificación de vacaciones !!!
NOTA IMPORTANTE SOBRE LAS REVISIONES: Casa de las Olas ha sido incluida en VRBO desde 2006. Aunque VRBO ha cambiado drásticamente la forma en que permiten a los Propietarios e Invitados interactuar, recientemente, aproveché la oportunidad para volver a leer los Comentarios relacionados con mi Propiedad y todo nuestro Equipo. Como el Propietario y el responsable final de proporcionarle una propiedad de manera que esté representada con precisión en este sitio, me gustaría expresar lo siguiente: No puedo compartir adecuadamente con usted lo honrado y agradecido que es todo nuestro Equipo. es haber recibido tantas críticas maravillosas e increíbles. Como invitado, puede o no saber qué tan difícil puede ser recibir críticas sobresalientes debido a que, a veces, es muy fácil para ciertos tipos de personas encontrar elementos o problemas con los que fallar (hay muchas "partes móviles" al intentar para mantener una casa en los trópicos). Me doy cuenta de que podría haber algún momento en el futuro en el que no lleguemos a la marca con un Invitado en particular (con suerte, no), pero tenga en cuenta que nuestro Equipo es extremadamente agradecido y honrado por todos los Comentarios anteriores que han respaldado a esfuerzos Muchas gracias por creer y apoyarnos !!! Usted tiene mi compromiso y mi seguridad de luchar siempre por la Excelencia en todo lo que hacemos.
Nota: esta una propiedad muy popular - Estoy muy bendecido por tener muchos huéspedes que regresan y la casa es a menudo completamente lleno durante la temporada de primarias. Sin embargo, yo no mantienen EL CALENDARIO vrbo, así que por favor póngase en contacto conmigo para comprobar la disponibilidad. Gracias.

The perfect place to stay if you are looking for a quiet get away in Tamarindo.
Perfect place to stay in Tamarindo. Just takes a couple of minutes to walk to the beautiful beach of Tamarindo and a short walk to town with all of the amazing restaurants and shops. Casa de Las Olas was amazing. The quiet pool side oasis in the back yard was incredible. Perfect place to hear and see Howler Monkeys and Iguanas. Thank you Rik and Susan for your hospitality.

The Casita at Casa de Las Olas
We had the best time in Tamarindo and especially at Rik and Susan’s home. Couldn’t have been more happy with the hospitality and the property itself. The pool and tropical backyard was the icing on the cake plus only a 3-5 min walk across the street to the breathtaking beach. We look forward to coming back ASAP!

Absolutely amazing vacation
I cannot say enough good things about Casa de las Olas. It is in the perfect location, a one minute walk to a beautiful, uncrowded beach. It has everything you need, including a well stocked kitchen, bikes, and surfboards to use. And Rik is the perfect host - he has so many recommendations and is super responsive to any questions or issues you might have. We can’t wait to stay here again on our next visit!!

Perfect spot in Tamarindo!
We couldn’t have made a better selection for our vacation in Tamarindo, Costa Rica. The casita was lovely with everything we needed. The pool, gardens, and outdoor living area were ideal. The beach access was just across the street. The property is in the quieter area of Tamarindo which was nice. It’s an easy walk to restaurants. Rik and Susan were gracious hosts. It was just the property and vacation we were looking for!

Great location. Close to the beach…but peaceful as well!
We enjoyed our week at the house. Loved the outdoor showers! Air conditioning worked well. Housekeeping was an added plus. Loved the pool area and covered patio to escape the sun. The biggest drawback would be the locks required between the 2 units. Didn’t like that and really didn’t understand what it wouldBe like….and that is why I gave it a 4 star. Better suited for just adults I would say.

We miss Tim already
We had an absolute wonderful time at Rik's place, from walking along the beach for dinner in town to the Palo Verde national park, but the highlight of our vacation was coming across the Olive Ridley Turtles babies digging out of their nest while walking back from dinner , not 100 meters from Rik's place, and yes we made sure ALL the turtles made it to the ocean (100+)
Thanks Rik for the great hospitality and local knowledge

Personally, as I mentioned, I've only seen that a couple of times in my 32 years here so for you to witness it on your first trip is (I don't know what to say but, you were extremely fortunate !!).
Please come back and visit Casa de las Olas !

A Gem steps from the Beach
The details, furnishings and garden show a true labour of Love. Rik has created a real garden of Eden near the Beach with all the toys included. We enjoyed our walks along the Ocean, but there were bicycles and surfboards available, too. Birds, iguanas and monkeys gave us great entertainment as we enjoyed this property and the closeness to the Beach. Kitchen was very well equipped--but as we were on vacation we took advantage of several beachfront restaurants--very good!! Thanks, Rik

Quiet, comfortable oasis
I stayed at Casa de Las Olas over New Year's with my 2 teenage sons. It was quiet, clean and very comfortable. We did cook some using the well equipped kitchen rather than eat out all meals. The twin hammocks on the front porch got a lot of use and the beach was just steps away. Did not think it would be needed, but I did appreciate the air conditioning in the bedrooms at night. The gardener even changed a flat tire for me while my teenagers were snoozing!

Although I'm sorry you had a flat tire, you can be assured that I will be commending Jesus (the Gardner) for going beyond the "call of duty" by taking the initiative to change the tire for you.
Thank you again for your comments and for joining us at Casa de las Olas - hope to see you again.

Paradise in Costa Rica
Hard to describe this house because there's SO much to rave about. It's beautiful, extremely well maintained, reasonably priced, within walking distance to everything you need, includes all the equipment you need to enjoy the beach across the street, and the owner is incredibly helpful. We didn't bother renting a vehicle because we could walk for everything we needed (on that fabulous beach!) or take a quick cab ride to bring home a bunch of groceries. We are so glad that we chose this location and this house --- they are the definition of "hidden gems".
Thank you, Rik, for an unbelievable hoiday in paradise. We can't wait to come back!

An incredible and impressive home
This home exceeded any expectation we had. The pictures can't come close to the space and setting this home has to offer, seriously. We were just a short walking distance to what felt like a secluded beach, which was also close to an very nice boutique hotel that offered a quaint breakfast, dinner, and/or drinks. During our stay we also often found ourselves just as happy spending time on our front area lounging on hammocks, which was private and surrounded by a lush landscape. The owner Rik was extremely helpful during our stay, and we are appreciative for all his information he provided us. We are definitely coming back!

Costa Rica Relaxation
My wife and I recently stayed at Casa de las Olas for 2 weeks and had the most relaxing time at this wonderful house seconds away from Playa Tamarindo. Let the world spin on, but here you can just take it easy. The house is secluded, landscaped beautifully and immaculately maintained. Go surfing with the boards supplied with the house or snorkeling with the equipment that is there for you. The house is a short walk on the beach into town and near many restaurants. You can take a bike ride on the two beach cruiser bikes that stay at the house also. This was our 5th stay at Casa de las Olas and you can bet we will return again.

Perfect house in Paradise !!
The three of us just returned home from a 6 day stay at Casa De Las Olas and could not be any happier! The house was perfect for our needs, equipped with everything we needed and more. The housekeeper was there every other day along with the gardener, would of loved to brought them home with us !! We had many meals at home and the kitchen was very well equipped. The location is just steps away from the beach and we loved the peace and quiet of the neighborhood. Rik the owner was awesome to work with, answered our emails promptly and is very well respected and liked in Tamarindo. He has thought of everything to make his houseguests stay enjoyable and problem free. We highly recommend this property and plan on returning !!

Thank you so very much for the excellent review - it is appreciated much more than you know !!! As the owner of the property, I know that our Team works extremely hard to take good care of our Guests and I, and they appreciate it when that effort is acknowledged and recognized.
As one can only imagine, since Costa Rica is somewhat "off the beaten path" (which really adds to the exceptional experiences people sometimes have), the logistics of maintaining Casa de las Olas for our wonderful Guests is, on one end challenging, but on the other end well-worth the effort when we receive such kind words as yours.
Our Team (Brian, Irania, Jesus, and myself) are extremely happy that you had an enjoyable stay at Casa de las Olas and we look forward to your return.
Thank you again,

Beautiful studio on quiet side of Tamarindo
Lovely studio that is very well appointed and has everything you need. Rik and Susan are easy to work with and have done a beautiful job taking care of the property. They have a wealth of information regarding Tamarindo and the surrounding area. The beach (Tamarindo) is very accessible and just a few steps away. We love that we are close to Tamarindo beach to hit the waves and Langosta beach (a short walk) to find seashells and the tide pools are fun to explore. We loved the restaurant next door. The pool area is very lush and beautiful. The pool was so nice to take a quick dip to cool off. It was a bit hot for us, but Rik and Susan can’t control the weather sadly (LOL). Also, the sun comes into the windows very early so bring an eye mask if you need it to be dark to sleep. We hope to return soon!

Safe broke. A/C did not work properly. Three rolls of TP for four people for two weeks.
House was too hot to cook in. Lights burnt out and were never replaced. Wifi was slow and only worked in living room. Asked if we could use BBQ and was told he would get back to us and never did.

Thank you for your recent visit to Costa Rica staying at my Home. I was concerned to hear about your experience with the wifi, bbq, and other issues. We understand that one of the things you expect most when staying at a holiday property is great wifi even when you are in a foreign country that may not have the internet speeds you are used to in Canada – along those lines, the electrical grid in a 2nd world country is often not as reliable as well, which often times causes surges which will occasionally cause a light bulb to fail. The bbq instructions were in the House manual, but you may have missed this. Sadly, you must have also missed the spare toilet paper that was in the cabinet under the bathroom sinks as well. I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for these problems, although I know that does not change your experience. I hope that you can feel confident that we heard your concerns. Thank you for your feedback and review and we look forward to making it up to you in your next visit to the beautiful country that is Costa Rica.

Great house, great value, great owner!
My husband and I have stayed in Casa de las Olas several times in the last few years: just the two of us, the two of us along with our daughter and her baby, and also with another couple. We've stayed for as few as 6 days and as long as a month. The layout of each bedroom being adjacent to a bathroom makes sharing the house work out great.
The house is always immaculate. Irania, the housekeeper, comes 3 times a week which is just perfect.
Rik is a great neighbor/landlord - always helpful, always willing to make your stay as pleasant as possible.
I agree with all the other reviews so don't want to repeat the comments.. This is THE BEST BUY in Tamarindo. You can't go wrong choosing Casa de las Olas. (Love ya', Rik!)

Amazing experience!
This property is not to be overlooked. Exactly as described in the listing. Rik couldn’t have been a better host. Gave us clear check in instructions, then he showed up a few minutes later. We chatted and he offered us any advise or suggestions we needed. Just a real class guy, laid back loves what he does and is very proud of his Casa de Las Olas, as he should be.
We were two couples, my wife and I and my brother and his wife. They had never been to CR, and were greatly impressed. Literally out the door and to one of the most beautiful beaches in 100 yards. Then you can stroll along the wide beach and stop in at any number of restaurants and bars along the beach. If you’re there on a Friday, the hotel across the street has a beach barbecue in a beautiful setting, with food cooked grilled right there on the beach and Costa Rican entertainment following.
I could go on and on, but just know you can’t find it much better than Rik’s place.

Acerca de su propietario/a
Propietario/a: R. C. Grencik
NOTE: For the first time in almost 40 years, as the original Owner and Builder of Casa de las Olas, I (Rik) have sold the property (December 2025). That's the Bad News. The Good News is that I have sold the property to my Nephew, Jason and his Wife Chelsea. Over the years, the entire Team at Casa de las Olas has worked diligently to take care of our Guests so that they would truly enjoy their hard-earned vacation and have a Wonderful Stay at this incredible property. Based on the entire Teams efforts, we have consistently earned a 5-Star rating AND we have many Guests that have returned for multiple years.
In terms of your consideration of choosing Casa de las Olas, Jason and Chelsea are keeping every member of our long standing Staff in place. In doing so, with this change in Ownership, you can assured that nothing will affect your holiday in any way. Irania, our House Cleaner of 26 years will still take GREAT care of you as she always has and Victor, our Gardner will continue to maintain our Beautiful Gardens.
THANK YOU for your understanding and considering Casa de las Olas !!
Until Jason and Chelsea update their information, what follows is Rik's archive info: I'm an old California "Surf Rat" who has spent a vast majority of my time traveling the globe looking for waves. In 2009 I retired from the Fire Service. Like everyone, I've had some challenges, but I keep a smile on my face most of the time and laugh at myself fairly often. I still love surfing, chasing waves, traveling, spending time with friends and family, and sharing Casa de las Olas with old and new friends alike!
Por qué escogió este alojamiento
I purchased this property in 1987, which was long before Tamarindo was "discovered," and literally, there was nothing here!
I built the home between 1992 and 2000. Since I was intimately involved in all phases of the construction, and Tamarindo was quite primitive at the time, I had to bring down most of the materials i.e., plumbing, electrical, etc. in Rubbermaid plastic bins. Even though I have been active in my life, the construction and logistics of building this home was one of the most challenging things I've ever done.
Since I've spent a fair bit of my time chasing waves in the backyards of the world, I knew that one day I wanted to retire in the Tropics and Tamarindo seemed to be a good place. Although it's changed dramatically over the years, Tamarindo is still a great place to kick back and enjoy life.
In 2022, Susan and I took on the grand project of remodeling the backyard into a real tropical paradise that includes a pool, tropical garden, large rancho, and lounging spaces. We LOVE our backyard paradise and hope you and your family and friends will too!
Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial
Casa de las Olas is in one of the best locations and neighborhoods to stay in Tamarindo. It is a traditional Costa Rican style home that prioritizes the beauty of simplicity and incorporating outdoor spaces into living. We call it's style "Tico-Eclectic" because it is a combination of traditional local style and surfer style, which includes beautiful and comfortable amenities inside and out. Casa de las Olas is a very short walk to the a beautiful beach, with a private lounging pool and tropical paradise in the backyard. Which includes a rancho/BBQ-kitchenette and dining space, sun loungers, tropical gardens, hammock, WIFI, toilet, and outdoor tropical showers. For your beach adventures, guests have the use of two surfboards, two boogie boards, two bicycles, and a Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP). Casa de las Olas is well appointed with all of the modern indoor/outdoor conveniences and comforts. So no matter what you prefer, whether it's surfing, lounging in the pool, or laying in the hammock, Casa de las Olas is a special place people love and continue to return. 'Remember, work less, Surf more'
