Great spot that feels secluded but you walk across the street to the beach to surf It’s so easy. Walk to town in safe area. Hosts were great and very good communications. No surprises. House is bigger than looks, pool is perfect and clean. Cleaners and property managers were great. I will respect

The property is wonderful. Perfect location and it’s huge. Ingrid and Alex were awesome. Kerry is a great communicator as the host and was super attentive to all requests. Everything was as advertised or better. The house is beautiful. The only thing I’d say as some others did is if you’re there on a Sat or Fri night, loud music until 3am makes it hard to sleep. The doors are somewhat hard to close and a strong wind will blow one or two open which isn’t great if the alarm is set for the night. I would highly recommend casa osprey for families. Incredible spot.

Our family and friends just spent another week at Casa Osprey and it was just as wonderful as our stay there two years ago. The house is beautiful! It is decorated so tastefully, is incredibly well maintained, and has a perfect layout for two families with teens. The location can’t be beat. It’s right in the heart of town, directly across the street from the beach, yet when you enter the gates you are in your own private oasis. Ingrid the housekeeper and Alex the groundskeeper are lovely and keep everything immaculate. There are nice beach chairs to take to the beach and a beautiful pool to enjoy. Kerry is very responsive and helpful in arranging transport, surfing lessons etc. We hope to return again someday!

Absolutely amazing property with great communication with the hosts. Pictures do not do this home justice. I would highly recommend.

I highly recommend this property. There don’t appear to be any others like it in Tamarindo. You open the gate and it’s like a huge beautifully manicured compound you have for yourself. There aren’t any others like this right next to the main strip and beach and yet when the gate closes, you feel like you’re in your own mini national park. Lots of monkeys and iguanas here. The biggest iguana we’ve ever seen chills out here. Probably 6 feet head to tail. The pool is very big. House has everything you could ever need for a large group. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked. Maintenance and housekeeping were excellent. Kerry, who is the person we dealt with was awesome. Just a good guy who had good advice, was very responsive if you needed anything and made sure you had all you need. Good working AC, which is huge as it was really warm the week we were there. Comes with beach chairs and boogie boards too! Plus, all the mango you can eat with several huge mango trees on the property. The house and rooms are all very large and well decorated. The living room is enormous. We didn’t even use it but for people that like a nice place to sit and relax or have a nice sit down dinner, it would be perfect. I highly recommend this property. If and when I go back, I will 100% rent this home. It stands out in every way and no other property has such a perfect location. Love this place. My entire crew loved it.

This property is beautiful. The house is perfect, and the staff is exceptional. We love Casa Osprey because it is in the heart of Tamarindo and beach access is so easy, right across the street. Spring Break 2023 was our second stay at Casa Osprey. We will always stay here when we visit if it is available!

This property and house is outstanding! The house is a hacienda style with large living spaces. Each Bedroom is secluded. The house pool is quite large. The property is over 2 acres with well manicured with very large trees which the animals love. Wildlife includes iguanas, howler monkeys, parrots, squirrels, and many other birds. The complete site is surrounding by a 10 foot stucco wall which enhances the property security and seclusion. The house maid is excellent and hardly noticeable. This property is directly across from the main beach. Our group which has traveled all over Central America believes this is the best Casa we have had the pleasure to enjoy. We’ll be back!

Our group of six (3 couples) had to pinch ourselves upon entering the gate at Casa Osprey. The grounds are rich with beautiful foliage including a magnificent mango tree.
The beautiful pool and outdoor seating area with both sun and shade, provided ample space for our crew to relax. The house is AMAZING!! From the details of the architecture and craftsmanship, to the ample amenities. While our group shared this home, the layout and the large bedrooms made us feel we had our own private space. Alex and Ingrid (both sweet souls) came daily to care for Casa Osprey. Our group greatly appreciated the location of this property. We were steps away from the beach, shops and restaurants, yet enjoyed the tranquility of this quiet space. Midge and Kerry were wonderful hosts. They communicated in a timely manner and provided us with great referrals for transportation, restaurants and other activities. Thank you for sharing Casa Osprey.

Beautiful property immediately across the road from the beach. Daily visits from monkeys and iguanas all while sitting at the pool. As others have noted, Friday night music coming from neighboring bar/restaurant is loud. I suspect you can hear it anywhere in Tamarindo-

This house was perfect for our group. Located in the heart of town, the house and grounds felt like we were in our own world. Kerry met us for check in and walked us through all the amenities. Ingrid and Alex came everyday to clean the house and pool. The kitchen was stocked with absolutely everything you could need. The beds were very comfortable. Mornings were spent watching the howler monkeys swing from the trees above us, then walking the beach, literally across the street. The whole town is within walking distance from the gated house. We all felt very safe and would highly recommend this vacation house.

My husband and I shared this beautiful home with 3 other couples during peak season in Tamarindo between Christmas and New Year. We all had plenty of privacy in this spacious well-built house! It is perfectly located near restaurants, shops, and steps from the beach, yet the private grounds provided tranquility and peace away from the crowds. We were thrilled by the daily visits from iguanas, monkeys, squirrels, and birds. The kitchen was well appointed and the grill was like new. Alex and Ingrid take great care of the home and property, and are very friendly and knowledgeable. We all highly recommend a stay here and would certainly return!!

Extremely well built and furnished home. Beautiful and well maintained 2 acre property set back from road with feeling of privacy. Iguanas and howler monkeys onsite. The staff Ingrid and Alex were great. Owners very responsive. Right in town across the street from beach, 1/2 block from small grocery, many restaurants in walking distance. The only thing to know is you will get street noise on this property even though it is set back. You will sometimes hear music from the restaurant across the street. And you will hear thumpty bumpy from the nearby EDM disco one night a week till 2:30 (or so they advertise one night a week - we heard it one night). So if you are craving total silence this may not be your place. But the noise didn't bother us (except a tad on the EDM night) and the stay was totally fantastic.

Lovely, large house. A great place for a family Thanksgiving.. A Secret Garden hide-away steps from the the main strip of Tamarindo and beach. Everything was as billed, our only complaint was the weather.

Best vacation rental we have ever stayed in. The house is gorgeous, grounds expansive and our kids loved the pool. Very central location and home the grounds are home to what may be the biggest Iguana in Costa Rica. Highly recommend staying here.

There are no words to describe our recent vacation to Casa Osprey. The house is beyond beautiful and the location is perfect. One of the best vacations we've ever had.

Casa Osprey offered my family and friends the perfect escape. I spent a month here with friends and family. The location was ideal for my 21 year old daughter and her friend (nightlife, restaurants, surfing, etc.), my 29 year old son and his wife (beach, deep sea fishing) and those of us in our 60s (catamaran sunset tour, horseback riding, reading by the pool, dining at the beach cooking class at the house, spa day).
The house is absolutely beautiful with everything you need inside and out, for an active or relaxing stay. It is very private, gated and surrounded by trees yet immediately across from the beach. The house and gardens are immaculate and tended to daily. The pool and patio area are clean and provide a beautiful sanctuary. Midge and Kerry were perfect hosts assisting with all our needs and excursions from airport transportation to horseback riding, @casagua @paintedponyguestranch, restaurant recommendations (@Pangastamarindo, @sentidoNorterestaurant, @elchiringuito_tamarindo, etc), @sibou_costarica, Spa, sunset catamaran tour wth Kenn and Andrews at @velavcatamaran, deep sea fishing with Cap Willy @tamarindo_tours_discovery and cooking class and prep at Casa Osprey with @sunsetcateringtamarindo delicious!!
I highly recommend Casa Osprey for your next vacation, destination wedding or special occasion.

Casa Osprey was amazing for our family of five! The home, amenities and location were absolute perfection. The only difficulty we had was finding the place, as the gate is completely unmarked. Fortunately, the property managers were able to give us more detailed instructions. We loved every minute of our stay!

You cannot go wrong with Casa Osprey. Beautiful colonial mission style home sitting within its own secluded garden/jungle. The design of the house provides privacy for guests with great spaces for dining and gathering. The bedrooms are spacious and cool. The kitchen is well equipped, large and spacious and great for preparing meals for your group. The pool (well equipped with chairs, pool floats and beach equipment) and grounds are fabulous with daily visits from a troupe of howler monkeys and also iguanas, frogs, geckos, parrots and a wide array of birds and other wildlife. We also had a walkthrough from an anteater on one occasion. Ingrid the house keeper is wonderful and ghostlike (you hardly know she’s there) and everything is suddenly clean and tidy. Alex the groundskeeper keeps the property and pool immaculate. The location could not be better. Directly across the street from Tamarindo beach, which is a broad sandy beach and the sandy ocean bottom extends way out into the water and is great for swimming and surfing. The house is located on the main street of Tamarindo and easy walking to all the shops and restaurants. Midge and Kerry are responsive to every need with lots of advice and information on the town, transfers, tours, and restaurants. We are so grateful to you for sharing this beautiful home and wonderful property. Cannot wait to return!

Daniela, our host could not have been more accommodating. Anything we inquired about, she helped with or took care of. The property is BEAUTIFUL and location could not get any better. If I could give her more stars, it would be infinite.

The property was perfect for our family. Our 3 daughters each had their own room and bathroom. The pool was something everyone looked forward to coming back at the end of the day and using. Dani was an amazing help! She went above and beyond with recommendations and all sorts of help to ensure our stay was perfect. We had a family of monkeys on the property as well as lots of other fun wildlife. The location was great - pretty much walking distance to anything in town and easy to hop in the car and get out of town. We had a great stay in Costa Rica and partly because of the house and the help from Dani.

Our family of five spent two wonderful weeks at Casa Osprey. This beautiful home in the heart of Tamarindo was the perfect location -- a private sanctuary to lounge by the pool with the monkeys, as well as an in-town location right across from the best part of Playa Tamarindo. It was really easy to vacation with teenagers -- who wanted try surf lessons, explore the town, walk to great restaurants, check out crafts at the farmers market, play tennis at the nearby club, or find a tour to explore more beaches and new parts of the Guanacaste region. And the rainy season didn't slow us down a bit. Casa Osprey comes highly recommended and we can't wait to go back.

This was an amazing experience for our group.
Midge took care of everything from rides from the airport to restaurants recomendations.
You walk out the gate and you are right in the action of the beach culture and you walk behind the gates and you have your own privite sanctuary.
We had maid service and pool service daily the accomadations are beautiful and well kept.
Could not imagine a better stay in Costa Rica
