This home was beautiful and in a great location. Far enough away from the busy, but close enough to enjoy all that Tamarindo has to offer. In walking distance, you have an amazing beach with the most beautiful sunsets. You also have a little market for shopping as well as a fun sports bar and grill with pool table, ping pong, corn hole, etc. You also have a nicer restaurant that offers breakfast lunch and dinner, and a little place with shaved ice, acai bowls and all types of smoothies. The downside for us was the check-in, guest duties, and running out of water for over a day. The check-in process is NOT self check-in, which we did not know. It HAS to be a personal check-in where the host has to walk you through everything vs a binder or sheet that explains everything. We got in late, out of our control, and she was not happy about that. We finally arranged the check-in but it was kind of a hassle and dug into our vacation time and we missed out on some family time due to having to meet up with the host. The things that your responsible for: 1 - is taking care of the pool and ensuring that you turn the pump on every day and the water level is good. This was kind of weird to us, but since we have a pool, it wasn't foreign. 2 - is checking the water container to ensure you have water. You have to walk behind the other 2 villas and pound on the tank to see where the level is. Again, sort of strange. And the last bummer was running out of water for over a day.

This was a nice property. Comfortable beds. Nice bathrooms. Very clean and secure. Great couch to gather together and watch movies in the living room. Away from the busy Tamarindo beach traffic for Easter weekend but easily walkable. There are also motorized scooters on the walk over that you can rent. There is a small market just down the street to buy groceries for the house.

Tara was an exceptional host and I can’t recommend her enough. She was always available and her property was just as described. Location was ideal for our group as we were just close enough to the live atmosphere of Tamarindo but far enough to enjoy the tranquillity of Langosta. Playa Langosta Beach was a few short blocks away from the property and it’s a must visit to see one of the best sunsets in Guanacaste. If you have a big enough group I’d recommend renting out all 3 villas so you have the entire property to yourselves. That said we had some awesome neighbors during our trip. I can’t recommend the place or the host enough!
