This is a beautiful little house a short walk from a stunning beach in a very nice community suburb of Tamarindo. It’s like ‘where the grown ups and littles go to get away from the hustle of Tamarindo while the twenty somethings go a little wild.’
The house is nicely appointed with everything you could need to be comfortable and at home. You happily migrate throughout the home appreciating different parts at different times of the day. Happy breakfasts in the communal kitchen living room, break from the beach and sun in the little dipping pool, late afts and evenings soaking in the rooftop jacuzzi. There are 5 or 6 restaurants within a short easy walk that serve great food and delicious drinks. Can not complain about any of them. Even Tamarindo is walkable - just a little more of a jaunt so depends on fitness level and temperature outside.
Pluses - beautiful little house, well designed, fit 4 teens and 3 adults (2 close families) just fine. Hosts were very responsive. Community is quiet, clean and safe with lots of options for eating.
Things to consider - pool is small and in an enclosed courtyard - great for littles, but not really big enough for a group of adults. Beach is stunning to look at, but hard to swim. Lots of lava rock, so if you really want to spend time in the ocean, get the tide schedule and go to the estuary. It’s a bit of a walk to Tamarindo, so if you are after nightlife / action then plan on cabs, the bus or rent a golf cart or car well in advance.
