About this house rental
Perched atop the lush Tamarindo hills, rich with flora and wildlife and only a 7 min walk to Tamarindo beach, is where you will find Casa Alegria. Prepare to be captivated by the dazzling views of the blue Pacific Ocean the moment you walk into the villa's open-concept living area. Beaming with natural sunlight, and furnished with superior comfort in mind, you and your guests can enjoy countless hours of lounging or taking in the magnificent sunsets, while sipping on cocktails.
Feel the warm embrace of the tropical air as you pull back the floor-to-ceiling glass doors, inviting nature inside, and providing access to the beautiful pool and balcony. Swim, relax, or take a delightful siesta out on the lovely terrace where you can choose from a hammock or plush outdoor couches. When lunchtime rolls around, light up the grill and cook up a mouthwatering BBQ amid the palm trees and garden. In the evening, prepare dinners in the modern kitchen, equipped with everything needed to create savory masterpieces. Gather around the beautiful, handcrafted, wooden ten-person table to reminisce upon the marvelous adventures had while partaking in your feast. At the end of a long, satisfying day, retreat to your very own master suite where you can unwind with a soothing warm bath, before sinking into a freshly made king-size bed. Fall asleep gazing out at the mesmerizing night sky through the extra large windows, then awaken every morning by taking in the fresh air from your private balcony. In addition to these wonderful features, an extra queen bed and living space can also be found in the loft of the master suite, perfect for families. Two other spacious king-size bedrooms, with lovely ocean-facing balconies, can be found next to the master suite, and a 4th king-size bedroom on the main level, with direct access to the tranquil garden and terrace. A 5th cozy bedroom provides a bunk bed with a queen bottom and single top mattress, great for children or children at heart. Daily cleaning is included so you can focus on relaxing.
When it's time to explore the town, enjoy a 10-minute stroll or choose the comfort and mobility of a golf cart, available for rent, to get you there. Park the cart at one of many parking lots around downtown and visit the local shops, assortment of international restaurants or relax on the silky sand of Playa Tamarindo. As the evening rolls around, grab a drink and enjoy the gorgeous sunset, while sharing laughs with your group. Spend the evening at the local open-air food court, trying all kinds of different foods, while enjoying live music, before heading back to your haven.
As part of your rental, our amazing concierge will contact you prior to your trip in order to find out your interests. There are a wide variety of excursions available, from water activities like surfing, diving, snorkeling, sunset boat trips, deep sea fishing as well as massages, spa, or chef services. In addition, there are a variety of land tours like canopy tours with zip lines, natural hot springs, white water rafting, and Rincón de la Vieja volcano.
Our concierge will meet you upon arrival, personally introduce you to your vacation home, and tell you more about the details of the home, the resort property, and any activities in which you might have already planned through her or that you might like to add to your stay.

We spent the holiday weekend at the most amazing house in Tamarindo. We had several generations including a 1 and 3 year old. It was a great house for the young kids, especially with the shallow end of the pool. Easy to walk into town and the beach for the twenty Somethings! Our concierge made the trip east by contacting us ahead of time and coordinating all our outings and dinner reservations. Look forward to coming back and staying longer!

We had a family group of 13 of us celebrating my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. Booked this property as we wanted to be close to town to walk or ride golf carts to the beach several times a day as well as have a gorgous infinity pool overlooking the beach in the distance and also plenty of room for us all. I can't say enough about how beautiful the rooms were and the grounds. Truly breathtaking! We even worked out having breakfast included each day and was so wonderful having Edgar and Betsy serve us a delicious buffet breakfast each morning so we could just enjoy our coffee and time together with no prep or cleanup! Our concierge, Romi, was also super quick to respond when we wanted to book last-minute tours or needed dinner recommendations. Highly recommend this place for your group of friends or big family!

We loved our stay. Our extended family of 8 all met here and had a wonderful week. We couldn’t complain about a thing. The house and the yard are immaculate and the view breath taking. Everything you could want. The concierge went above and beyond - ensuring our plans were in order and even helping with medical care when my young son was injured. We will be back!

This house although older, is perfect for a large group or a family getaway. Sunsets are amazing on the deck or sitting in the pool. The house has everything needed to live comfortably no matter how long your stay. Although it was just my wife and I this trip, we would bring our 3 adult children for the holidays and still have rooms to spare. It is centrally located to everything. Minutes from Tamarindo center & Flamingo is a short car ride. Romi was absolutely great to work with and did an amazing job helping us coordinate local activities. She's truly an asset to 5 Star.

From the property manager, the daily housecleaner, groundskeeper and security guard, to the ocean views, pool and indoor/outdoor living spaces, this was a 5 star experience the moment we walked in the door! Mario & Natalia's crew were amazing and made us feel right at home. The location is perfect, with unbelievable ocean and sunset views and just a short golf cart ride from the beach. They did a great job showcasing the home with pictures, videos and virtual tours. We can't wait to go back to that Pura Vida livin'!!

This place was great. The pool and entertainment space are magnificent, to say the least, as is the view. Proximity to town/the beach is also within 5 minutes walk. Loved our time here.

Beautiful property!
We had a wonderful stay at Casa Alegria! The property is beautiful and clean. The view is amazing! You're close enough to town you can walk, but we rented a golf cart and would highly recommend doing so. We would 100% stay here again.
My only complaint is that if you want to have any guest over you need to provide their names and passport # ahead of time or you'd be fined. They are also not allowed to use the amenities.

Relaxed in Tamarindo
The house was beautiful and a great location close to restaurants, shops and the beach. We had a car, but always walked into town. Beautiful views of the Pacific during the day and sunsets in the evening. Most of our time was split between the pool and the deck with both sun and shade options. Communication with the property manager was prompt before and during our stay. Initially we were unsure about having a housekeeper at the house all day, but having Karen there turned out to be a such a treat. Karen prepared breakfast each morning with fresh fruit, fresh squeezed juice and smoothies, Pina Coladas by the pool mid morning followed by lunch. We so enjoyed Karen and she made the vacation so relaxing for us. We loved the relaxed vibe of Tamarindo and tried a different restaurant every night. Typically after a week vacation I’m ready to go home. We spent 10 days at Casa Alegria and I didn’t want to leave. We will definitely return.

Paradise!
I can’t say enough good things about this property and the management. The house itself is stunning! Staff members came daily to help keep it clean and they were so friendly and responsive. I also love the location of the home because it’s so close to town and was very walkable. Our group of 8 adults had more than enough space in the home and we thoroughly enjoyed the pool and backyard lounge. I would highly recommend Casa Alegria!

I am in LOVE with Casa Alegria
The reviews did not lie! This house was absolutely impeccable and the team that they work with are literally 5 Star!! The property itself was beautiful between the amazing view from each of the rooms and the perfect infinity pool overlooking the sunset each night. Location was unbeatable. Walking distance to both town and the beach, while also making you feel safe and secure. Ana and team were amazing and helped us with everything from dinner reservations for our group of 11 to recommendations for surf lessons. We are SO grateful to them for making this stay stress free & PURA VIDA!!! But saving the best for last, Karen, the housekeeper / chef, is an absolute Saint. I cannot say enough wonderful things about her and her cooking and her drinks! She is just a genuinely amazing lady that we felt lucky to get to know and talk to! we miss her already! For reference, we were a co-Ed group of 11 people ranging in age from 27-32. Could not recommend this place more!!!

My family and my sister and her family just spent the Thanksgiving holiday at Casa Allegria. Everyone and everything was simply amazing! The staff was so attentive to all our needs- Ana and Natalie and of course, Mrs Karen. She is the best- fabulous Thanksgiving breakfast for us, smoothies, friendship and more. I would highly recommend this property! Thank you again for a fabulous week.

Great place!
We rented this house as a friends getaway. Perfect house. Wonderful amenities. The house keeper was amazing and the property manager was also great.
The walk to town is a bit hairy, especially after a few drinks but it can easily be done by most. We walked every time (takes about 5-10 minutes).

Exceeded expectations!
What a beautiful home! This was our first time in Tamarindo and we will definitely be returning! Home has everything you need to enhance your stay and will leave you wishing you spent more days there. They provided breakfast, lunch, and drinks at your request and communication with the host was always quick and easy. Ana (Host) always had the best recommendations for everything and anything we wanted and was also ready to make reservations for us at any moment. When it came to the actual place, there was not one detail in this property that was overlooked. We truly wished we could stay forever. The beauty, location, and service of the property cannot be beat! Will definitely be looking to stay here again for my next stay in Tamarindo.

Home away from home
We had an amazing vacation and a big part of it was because of this house. Very comfortable and short walk to the beach. Yes there is a bit of a hill, but the steep part is short and well worth it. Anything we needed there was always someone to help! I can’t say enough of how great Karen and Ana were. Truly a top notch operation!

Wonderful and Karen is the sweetest sweetheart that ever sweeted :)
The views are beautiful and the house is immaculate. Wonderful and quiet rooms with a master bedroom that has an amazing full wall of windows to aide in looking at the bay, sunrises, and sunsets.
Every rental can have a nice view or a nice estate, but NOBODY has Karen! Karen is the MVP here, she is just the sweetest! I can't emphasize enough how much she made our stay here feel like a home! It's like visiting grandma.
A++ Karen is one of a kind.

Great property
We loved our stay there. The road to the property is a little rough but it
Is close to town and the beach and you can easily walk to both. The rooms were comfortable and cool. We enjoyed the pool and the sunsets everyday. Karin, the housekeeper, cooked for us each day and that was so nice to not have to fight the restaurant crowds. The hosts were flexible, responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly ecommend.

Loved it!
We had a fantastic vacation in Costa Rica! The house was nice and big, with good sized rooms, nice view, and the pool was a lot bigger than we thought it would be. We had no issues at all. It is an awesome house that we would definitely return to. The best part was Karen, the maid, who was such a hard working and sweet lady! She made us a few meals/drinks, which were always great. And she makes the best guacamole! :)

This was a girls trip and amazing is how I would describe the home. We were met by the property manager, Natalia, upon arrival. I had corresponded with her prior to arrival and she had already answered many questions about the home. Natalia gave us a tour of the home and all the information needed to help us get acclimated to the home and the area. She had a book prepared with info on restaurants, grocery stores, etc. that we used throughout the week. She also helped with dinner reservations. Mario, the other property manager, checked in on us the next day and also answered some questions we had. They were most helpful and very professional. The home came with a staff of two: Karen and Santos. Karen came daily and took care of the home and us. She shopped for us and prepared meals and cleaned up giving us the opportunity to relax and truly be on vacation. Smoothies and drinks were her specialty. She did all this with a smile on her face. Santos made sure the pool and grounds were immaculate. Costa Rica is a beautiful country. The home overlooks the ocean in Tamarindo and is the ideal place for watching the sun set every evening over the Pacific. It is a 5 minute walk to town and the beach. Because of the view, the home sits high up so the road is a bit steep but is easily navigable in tennis shoes. The home was in great condition and very clean. I would highly recommend this home. It is what helped make the week memorable.

Fantastic house. Best part may have been the house keeper who made us breakfast every morning (get the breakfast burritos) and came over one afternoon to make us tropical cocktails and dinner. She's got a heavy hand and is a great chef.
