We had a good time in the IBIS condo. The bunk beds for the kids were great and the place was very roomy. Some things to note that could use improvement:
1) Cleanliness was ok but not great. We did notice our feet were getting dirty walking around the condo. The cupboards could use a good wipe down. We stayed for 11 days and had 1 cleaning near the end of the stay.
2) Some of the appliances and furnishings could use some attention. The blender is quite old and not working the greatest
3) the outdoor patio pool isn’t the greatest. It was filled with leaves and didn’t get cleaned at all while we were there. We thought it would be great for the kids to sit in for a bit here and there… but it never got used once
4) the elevator in the condo is sketchy. It broke down while someone was in it which was quite scary for that person. Stuck in there for over an hour
Some of the things we enjoyed:
1) The Langosta Beach Club was great to have right across the street. The beach there is the best spot and out of the chaos. Pool not super clean.
2) Seen monkeys right off the patio a few mornings!
3) The Staff (Cal Matcho specifically) was awesome
4) Golf cart not needed but very helpful to go for dinner and get food. The staff kept a close eye on it for us and it was super fun for us to cruise around in!
Overall, we had a good stay and I think this place would be suitable for a family. Maybe we are very picky but we also paid over $11k for 11 days and had high expectations.

Great combination of surf, sun, relaxation and activities. The condo was beyond our expectations. Tamarindo itself is very busy and touristy but we had an outstanding experience, Pura Vida Costa Rica !!!!

We had an amazing stay at Ibis. Close to the perfect beach. Access to Langosta beach club was a huge, terrific perk. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Rafa helped us arrange transportation and anything else we needed. Highly recommend.

Beautiful renovated and newly furnished three-bedroom, four bath condo in ideal location with a membership at the Langosta Beach club across the street. Access to this club is key as it is on one of the nicest beaches in the area with resort services. Spacious living area with spacious terraces. New stone kitchen. There are no negatives with this condo. We had a problem with one of the two central air-conditioning units that serviced the bedrooms. The managing agent was very responsive and sent people over in the evening to fix. They did improve it but it was still not working optimally at the time that we left as we were not able to get the bedroom temperature below 74°. Since along with the condo renovation these units were recently replaced I assume they will correct the problem in the near future. Located just beyond the busy area of Tamarindo it is quiet yet convenient to all the of the town. We had rented a golf cart for our stay but you can easily get by without. No need for alarm clock as the howler monkeys in the preserve the building abuts in the back may awaken you. Highly recommend

My family and I stayed in late Feb. 2022 and really enjoyed Ibis#10. The fridge broke the morning of our check-in date and the issue was remedied soon after we arrived at the condo. The team was very easy to work with and answered our questions all during the week. My kids loved being across the street from the Langosta beach club. Plan to stay again in March 2023!

Our impression, based on our friends experience, was great. They were looked after and loved the property, the friendly people and Costa Rica itself. They said they would return. We hope to be able to visit ourselves in the future.

What a vacation home
This was our first time in Costa Rica and tamarindo. Let’s start with the condo, it is 100 percent what the listing states. Inside was just gorgeous, we are a family of 6 (4 teens) we had plenty of room! The grounds men are just wonderful and are very appreciative of speaking with you/ helping out. We gave them tips and the smiles showed appreciation. The beach club, great vibe, rent a cabana (they are free for 1/2 day, either mornings or afternoons). Beach, we were there in July and not crowded at all..perfection. Water temp was around 82 degrees. We booked Rosanna to cook for us on the last night..homemade ceviche/guacamole/steak/ fish all of delicious. If we had another day we would have booked breakfast as well! Location, about 5-10 minute walk to town (yes, very safe). Simply said Pura Vida!

Amazing place!!
This condo far exceeded our expectations! Perfect location (tucked right outside of town but still walkable) and right across from a gorgeous beach club we used daily. The concierge and staff were so helpful and nice. We loved the town, the views and the whole experience of Tamarindo Costa Rica!!

Tamarindo Penthouse
Overall, the condo was great. It's large and nicely furnished. The location is within walking distance of everything you need, and the golf cart rental came in handy. There were a few hiccups though. The AC didn't work in the living area for the first couple of days. The oven didn't work and 2 of 4 burners wouldn't light initially. Rafa was able to get everything fixed quickly, except the oven.

Overall everything was perfect. We did not have a car and never felt like we needed one. The tub on the patio is not heated. Not a big deal but don’t assume it is a hot tub

Amazing stay!
The property is lovely - beautiful, comfortable, fantastic location across the street from Langosta Beach Club. Having access to the Beach Club with a membership makes this rental fantastic! We spent most of our time at the Beach Club - pools, cabanas & food were perfect!

Very Pleased
Hi, we were very pleased with our stay. We had a party of five including two young adults and my active 80 year old mother. We loved the penthouse condo, access to the club pool/restaurant and proximity to the beach & town. The desk attendants were also very helpful and ensured we had a very nice stay. The reasons for rating the unit 4 stars vs. 5 are: 1) The water pressure in the master bedroom shower was weak and we elected to use the other showers instead, and 2) The elevator did not work well. Luckily my mom could walk the three flights of stairs. Otherwise everything else was perfect!

We spent a week at Ibis on the Beach in penthouse #10 on the top floor. The condo was beautiful inside. The a/c worked great in both the main room and in the bedrooms. The large outdoor patio looking towards the beach (although you can't see the beach) was lovely but can be a little noisy with traffic. We loved sitting on the balconies overlooking the nature preserve in back. Across the street is the Langosta Beach Club which is included with the condo so very convenient. It has a restaurant, bar, pool, chairs on beach, and towels. Beach is very nice. Condo is only a 10 min walk to town where you'll find shops, restaurants, and small supermarkets. No need for a car. We took a shuttle from LIR airport (1 hr drive) thru 506 Transfers (family owned..awesome people). No need for taxi. Condo location is perfect...away from all the chaos but within a short walk of town. We booked a number of excusions thru Stefano. Used 506 Transfers for awesome trip to Arenal to zipline, hot springs and La Fortuna waterfall. 506 Transfers also took us to Tenorio Adventures where we went white water rafting which was a blast. Can't say enough good things about 506...Sebastian and Guido! We took a kayak trip on estuary in Tamarindo which was fun. Another highlight was hiring Chef Frank with BellyFedBetter who came to the condo and cooked dinner one night. Highly recommend him! Food was delicious!! We had hired the chicas to cook a traditional meal the night we arrived but unfortunately they never showed up. We also booked surf lessons for the five of us. The lessons were a lot of fun. Unfortunately, only one of two instructors showed up. All that being said, we would do it all again. The trips were easy to set up through Stefano, and he answered all of my many questions. Our stay was a nice mix of excursions and time on the beach.Our favorite restaurants: Seasons (cash only) and Dragonfly Bar and Grill. Will want reservations for both. Heard Panga's was also very good but didn't make it there (need reservations). Had good pizza at Pizzeria La Baula. Surf Shack is a great spot for lunch. Volcano Brewing had great beer. Good breakfast spots: La Bodega, Cafe Tico, and Nogui's. Heard Nordico Coffee House was good too but never made it. Most restaurants and supermarkets took credit cards but smaller places only took cash. Every place took dollars. All of our excursions were cash only.Bottom line: Highly recommend this condo! Enjoy!

Perfect Space and Location!
The penthouse FAR exceeded our expectations! The photos online must be a bit dated because all of the furniture was different from what was shown - for the better in my opinion with a more modern feel. It truly felt like home away versus a vacation rental. It came fully stocked with quality pots/pans/serving dishes for all of your entertainment and daily living needs. This rental comes with access to a gorgeous beach club literally right across the street so it was nice to run up whenever we needed something without losing precious beach time. It also had wi-fi so we could keep our phones on airplane mode and still receive and send text messages when connected without occurring additional charges. It was located on the edge of town so just a quick 5 minute walk up the beach to dinner every night. Tamarindo is a very casual town where you can "come as you are" to nearly any store or restaurant. We felt safe and relaxed at all times! We were glad we decided not to rent a car as you really don't need one at all. A cab ride is only $4 if you needed it to carry groceries back or were going to venture further out for dinner. Gil and his son Sabastian were our drivers to and from the airport and on our Adrenaline Day Excursion. They were WONDERFUL! They greeted us with beer and water for the 1.5 hour drive to the condo and even made a stop at the grocery store so we could pick up a few things for the week. Sabastian spoke great English so he accompanied us into the grocery store helping us make recommendations and pay with the correct currency. He shared lots of knowledge with us about the culture and island every time we rode with them. When Gill picked us up to take us back to the airport he even remembered to bring us sugar cane to sample as we had been talking about wanting to try it. I think they are the designated drivers for this property but I would make sure to request them again should we return just in case! Overall our week in Costa Rica was amazing and we would definitely stay here again next time - it's hard to top!

Just sadly returned from our Costa Rica trip! The photos do not do the place justice! No expense spared with the property! The staff at Ibis on the Beach were all so warm and helpful.From answering simple questions to arranging wonderful adventures! The beach club across the street was fantastic also. Will certainly be back! Pura Vida for life!

We loved our stay
Our family rented this unit and my sister-in-law's family rented the other unit. We wanted to be close to each other but each have our own space. It was perfect. Unit 9 and 10 are almost identical and they are both on the 3rd level right next to each other. The staff were awesome and they were so helpful with planning everything from drivers to activities. We did zip-lining, quad tours, river tours, and rented a golf cart for exploring. We also hired the local ladies to cook for us for breakfast and Chef Frank for dinners. I recommend hiring them to cook for you. It was awesome. These units were great because you have access to a pool/club right across the street and also have beach access as well. The bartender at the club was outstanding and totally took care of us. We would do activities in the morning and then play at the pool/beach in the afternoon. I highly recommend the pura vida cocktail. Yum. Also, the beach is VERY kid friendly with hermit crabs, sand dollars and warm water. Make sure you visit the beach during low tide because it's truly magical. Our kids loved this vacation.

Amazing property!!
We recently stayed here with my sister and brother in law and my parent-in-laws, who were celebrating their 70th birthdays. Honestly, the whole experience was fantastic. We are pretty seasoned "homeaway-ers", having stayed in properties all over the US and Europe, and I have to say, this was way up there in terms of the quality of the property, the professionalism of the staff and the amenities. The house is extremely well stocked (crate and barrel / williams sonoma, etc.) and has nearly everything you need including a decent blender if you like to make smoothies or margaritas! The beds are pretty comfy (pillows are a little wonky), but the bonus of having a bathroom en suite in each bedroom makes traveling with a group so much more comfortable, not to mention the beautiful balcony's two of the bedrooms have - perfect for enjoying your morning coffee and looking at the sunrise over the preserve behind the property. Access to the beach club across the street was included and it was key to our experience - we reserved a cabana for at least half of the day, each day we were there and it was perfect for us to be able to sit by the pool, yet be on the beach and just relax... The walk into town on the beach is 5-7 minutes and if you take the road it's about 10 minutes. There is an excellent farmers market just down the way on Saturdays (highly recommend) and a surprisingly well stocked grocery store that the property staff will drive you to for a nominal fee (alternatively, we rented bikes from them for $10 a day that had baskets and just rode down and shopped, it was less than 3 miles). I would caution anyone that is used to "resort-town food" that this area offers more standard fare. Most of our experiences with "nicer" restaurants were pretty average, but Season's by Shlomy was the most standout... We absolutely loved the area - the people are insanely friendly, including the staff at the condo, who were absolutely LOVELY. Totally recommend this property if you are considering the area - with the inclusion of the huge balcony that has a private hot tub, the beach club and the perfect proximity to the beach and town, I'd be hard pressed to imagine a better choice.

Beautiful! Everything we needed right there
Everything about this unit was nice. It was well managed with assistance available in everything from parking to luggage to restaurant reservations and recommendations. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. This condo was equipped with everything we needed and it was all high quality. Couldn't. Have asked for a better place to stay. Cannot wait to go back.

Beautiful Condo
The pictures of the condo are very accurate. It is just as nice (or nicer) than what the photos show. Right across the street from the beach club. The staff there is great and friendly. Bob was helpful and even took us to the grocery store. Stefano arranged some great excursions for us. I would definitely stay there again. The only recommendation I would have is to provide a full sized trash can with trash bags, dishwasher detergent, and some kind of cleaner to wipe down the counters. With 8 of us staying there and cooking a lot, we didn't have much to help us keep the place clean. Wonderful place, though. Recommended by all 8 of us!

Incredible vacation rental with high end features, expansive patio, and hotel-like amenities
We stayed with two families at the penthouse and could not have been more pleased. The onsite staff was amazing. We had 5 children who were greeted by Camacho every morning with a high five. We needed roll-away beds and a babysitter and the staff made all of that easy to get and organize. The actual condo was top notch. The rooms were big, the bathrooms were all high end, and the patio was huge. The photos do justice to the condo itself --- all the descriptions are accurate. Across the street, the beach club was incredible as well. We had a cabana every day and the staff at the beach club were awesome too. We could cook at the rental or eat at the beach club so the convenience made the vacation easy. When it comes to Tamarindo, we were surprised the grocery store was soo expensive so eating out cost about the same as shopping at the grocery store. We have traveled quite a bit with our children and have agreed this stay was one of the best we've ever had. We are hoping to be able to come back again!

Amazing family vacation in a beautiful location
We can not say enough about the wonderful stay we had at IBIS. Stephano and Juan worked non stop to make sure we had everything we needed. We changed our trips at the last minute, and it was never a problem. The beach club was great. We even utilized the spa and workout classes which were really challenging. We will certainly be back with our family of 5.

Great Penthouse at Playa Langosta in Tamarindo
The Penthouse was great and worked out great for the four of us. The place is very specious and has everything that you need, and it feels like home. The description was accurate according to the layout, and was very clean and well maintained.
We were late coming in and we thank the staff that was there when we arrived to let us in. We found everyone very friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this property to everyone.
Also, thanks to Concierge, Luis that assisted us with all our daily activities and driving directions to and from the San Jose airport. We goofed; we should have used the closest airport instead of the one in San Jose. The rental of the car was a good ideal for us, since we were planning to do same sight seen. However, be aware that the cost of the car insurance is very expensive. Also, food is also very expensive as well.
The only thing that I was not happy about was the fact that we were not able to use the elevator. I have problems with my knees and going up and down from the third floor presented a big problem for me, and I am still suffering from it.
Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay, and the many activities that we were able to do while in Tamarindo. We hope to be able to return soon.
Again, thank you,
The Bishop’s

Best of the Best in Costa Rica
We were totally "WOWED" by the penthouse with it's views, access to the beach, the most fabulous French Restaurant, the staff, and Tamorindo itself. We spent 10 glorious days experiencing the ambiance of this destination. Walking the beach into the main part of town takes about 5 minutes with the great ocean, surfers, boats etc. to attract you. The condo was so convenient to everything and offers many sightseeing adventures too. We never felt we needed a car. Monkeys were in the trees outside our balcony and many birds to watch from our patio. We'd recommend the River Cruise (Mangrove & Estuary Tour) plus we did the Pinilla Canopy Tour. Very Fun! We can recommend the restaurant highly as well - the food was top notch!! Loved our trip and would love to come back as it was more than we expected!! Kay and Dave S.

Excellent vacation spot
Just got back from a 2 week vacation in this 3 bedroom penthouse. Bob was great to work with and so are the concierges. Had a great time exploring the area. You don't need a car but we rented one the last 2 days to do some sightseeing on our own. They have wonderful tours that pick you up right from the condo. They have so many to choose from its hard to decide. The only thing is its not cheap so be prepared for spending some money. Food is expensive and so are the restaurants.
The best part about this condo is the beach club across the street. This is where we spent most of our time. There are free boogie boards and surf boards for rent. This is a huge plus. Many tourist come to spend the day at the beach club because its so nice to have a restaurant , the pool with the beach all right there. The people who work at the beach club are so nice and helpful. Nickalaus will teach you to surf if you don't know how they also have paddlboarding and kayaks for rent. I already miss happy hour on the beach watching the sunset.

Paradise in Costa Rica!
My wife and I and 2 other couples recently rented Ibis 10 in Tamarindo Costa Rica. The 3 bedroom condo was spacious, clean, and professionally maintained. The added bonus of free membership at the beautiful Langosta Beach Club put our vacation over the top. We had superb meals prepared by Amanda and Jennifer. Sebastian, our concierge, provided us with everything we ever needed. Bob Wilson the manager organized our payments and made sure our week ran smoothly. The beaches and restaurants of Tamarindo, as well as the hospitality of our staff made us sad to leave indeed!! We would not hesitate to recommend this condo to others looking for adventure and relaxation in Costa Rica..."Pura Vida"!!

Condo review
My wife and I along with 2 daughters and their husbands stayed in the penthouse. Beautiful, luxurious condo with ample space. Patio space and views were exceptional. On 2nd day the howling monkey group arrived at our back windows. Went fishing on the second day and saw humpback whales. Very convenient location to beach and restaurants. Loved the condo and Costa Rica.

Great Family Vacation
The photos are exactly what you get. This is a beautiful spacious condo with a high end kitchen. The location is the best. The beach club is across the street and a short walk into town, no need for a car. We all had a wonderful time surfing, fishing and zip lining. I would highly recommend the traditional meal prepared in the condo, they prepare so much food we had enough to enjoy for lunch.

Our Second Stay at this Wonderful Property!
This small condo complex (I think 10 units total) has only three floors. The top level houses the two largest units which are called penthouses. We stayed in one in January 2014, and this year we stayed in the other. The three bedrooms are large, each has its own full bathroom, and there is a half bath in the common area. There is plenty of open living space, with decks galore. Although we don't do much cooking, everything you need is there, including a large gas grill.
If you find something is wrong (ex. not working properly) when you get to the condo, or if something happens while you are there, let Bob know right away. (He is the property manager and lives on the first floor.) As mentioned in another review, he is extremely responsive if needed for anything. Cleaning service is good. Understandably, it is difficult for them to move all the bedding through the washer and dryer quickly when they do mid-week cleaning, but they are efficient as possible. Mopping and dusting is thorough. Regarding inquiries, Bob responds very quickly, and answers any questions you may have.
Finally, the location is fantastic if you plan on lazing on the beach and walking into town or in the other direction to dine or see what another beach has to offer. Unless you plan on venturing out further, a car is not needed. But remember you can arrange activities through the concierge downstairs. It is a great service, and Sebastian is extremely helpful in arranging day trips, dinner reservations, whatever! Pick up at condo is available with many excursions.
And the beach... Langosta Beach Club is just a walk across the road. There are chairs and lounges at the pool and on the beach. The beach is clean and not crowded, and the water is warm and clear most of the time.(Warm, windy days may shake up the water a little). And the beach bar is a nice place to gather for a couple of drinks or for happy hour.
If and when we make a third trip back to Tamarindo, we will definitely be staying with Bob and his crew!

Wonderful Facility and Hospitality
We found this to be a wonderful facility for our group of adults. In addition to a wonderful facility we have strong memories of warm and outstanding hospitality of the staff that warmly welcomed and cared for us. They gave us tips on what to do and made reservations for us and in doing so made us feel that we were special and that they wanted the very best for us.
The facility was inviting, spacious and provided a setting for relaxation and community building among our group. The location was good and we enjoyed the beach club across the street that was connected with the condo and here we also experienced some of the best hospitality possible. In short, this is a wonderful place to vacation that from our experience deserves an A+.

A group of about 50 of us rented all the available condominiums at Ibis Condos in Tamarindo, Costa Rica for a destination wedding. Overall, we really had a wonderful time staying here. The location was walking distance from town and the condo itself was clean, comfortable and welcoming. You should expect to get bugs in the condo (especially when it rains) as much of the space is open area, but that is expected with most tropical countries. We had access to the Langosta Beach Club which was a great bonus as it had the pool and cabanas to use for our entire group staying there!
Although the stay was really great and most of the staff working at the ibis condos were extraordinary, I would caution guests about Bob, the property owner, who unfairly withheld a significant amount of our security deposit. He claimed that most of the glassware in 3 of the units were missing. Finally, after weeks of no response from Bob and involving our wedding coordination company, the money withheld was returned in full with an explanation that security in the complex must have been lacking and the items were "stolen". If you are renting this condo or any of the condos at ibis or any other houses Bob manages in the area, make sure you ask for an inventory of the items in the condo, otherwise you may find yourself with your security deposit withheld unfairly.

Our stay at Ibis 10 was a wonderful experience. From the top-notch condo to the convenient beach club and easy access to the beach, we loved every aspect of our stay. My husband and I have been to Tamarindo before and specifically chose this condo because of the amenities including the beach club and stellar location between Tamarindo Beach and Langosta Beach - easy walking distance to town and surf breaks, and just a few steps to the best beach for kids. We brought our 1 year old and traveled with two other couples, one of which had a 7 month old. This property was unbelievably great for our little ones. The open concept and layout of the condo are very helpful when you are trying to prepare a meal and keep an eye on the kids. In addition, having access to the beach club was one of the highlights of our trip, since we used the pool everyday and enjoyed the wonderful service from the bar/restaurant. Our son enjoyed the howler monkeys right outside our bedroom balcony, which has a beautiful view of the Tamarindo Preserve.
The icing on the cake for us was the wonderful service Bob, the property manager, provided. From the very first email, he was extremely prompt and helpful in answering my slew of questions. He arranged transportation for us to and from the airport and was easily accessible during our entire stay. We will definitely be back!

We recently stayed in the Ibis penthouse for a 2 week family vacation. We loved the penthouse, it was just perfect for our extended family. The staff on the property grounds and Bob and Veronica were excellent hosts and very helpful. Bob recommended the best tours, restaurants and activities and we were very pleased with each...reasonable prices and family oriented. Also, Bob scheduled the airport shuttles which were reliable and reasonably priced. Bob took us to the supermarket a few times, which we really appreciated since we did not have a rental car.
We just loved the Langosta Beach Club and spent most of our time there when we weren't doing some activity. It's very casual and relaxing, but also elegant...way above the other beach clubs in the area. And the food was some of the best I've ever had. My favorites were the champagne filet of sole and the filet mignon with portabello sauce. The food leans towards French cuisine, but they also have outstanding burgers and fries. The staff is a mix of French ex-pats and local Costa Ricans and we found them very warm and accomodating.
All in all, a great vacation for us and we highly recommend the Ibis condos, and especially Bob and Veronica.

We came in for a destination wedding for the last week of the rainy season/first week of the summer season. We luckily had fabulous weather. This condo was absolutely perfect for 3 couples. The nature reserve behind the condo is breathtaking and you can hear howler monkeys regularly. The condo is across the street from the Langosta Beach club, which was so easy to access and use all of their services: the pool, cabanas, bar, restaurant, beach front area, lounge chairs, fitness room, etc as a part of staying at the Ibis. Our friend's was wedding right there on the beach and the people at the Langosta Beach Club worked with the wedding planner to make it perfect. The condo itself was gorgeous, the housekeeping and bellmen were very responsive to our needs (including keeping an eye on our rental car), and Bob went far above and beyond to ensure we had a fabulous experience. He took us grocery shopping the first day, booked all of our tours with reputable companies, gave us good restaurant recommendations, and helped with the last minute details of the wedding (including securing our wedding officiant with 48 hours notice!). He had great knowledge about who we should use for a in-home personal chef (Bathsheba) one night and for the wedding planner (Martina). We found the concierge and the other staff at the Langosta Beach Club (Maggie and Olivier) to be welcoming and eager to make this a trip of a lifetime. This condo itself is beautiful and comfortable, but what made it truly worthwhile is the access to the Langosta Beach Club and everything that Bob provided to us throughout the week. The road is bumpy in front of the condo, but as we found out that is part of being in Costa Rica. It was easy to walk to town either via the road or the beach. It was truly a phenomenal location and experience, and in no small part due to the people who helped make it happen during the week.
In order to help others with setting expectations when booking this condo, we do have a few things that should be mentioned. We did have some plumbing issues with one of the showers, but Bob got a plumber there within a couple of hours to fix it. The street can be a bit noisy in front of the condo when trucks roll down the road. Our shuttle driver from the Liberia airport wasn't aware of the Ibis condos location (there are no addresses to give), but luckily we could direct him to the Langosta Beach Club and easily find it across the street. The dishwasher sometimes didn't dispense all the
