The check in instructions were clear and easy which is appreciated after having had many other rentals that seem to be a hassle to get into. The condo was clean and had a perfect setup for our family with a king bed and 2 singles plus 2 baths.

Apt was comfortable enough for up to 4 adults, well appointed with extra towels and even beach towels and beach umbrella! A very nice touch. Communication with hosts was quick. Would definitely consider again next time we're in Tamarindo. ##### Evie M.

The location is central to shops, restaurants and most importantly the beach! Despite its proximity to all that Tamarindo has to offer it was very quiet to sleep. The apartment is spacious and well equipped so we could cook some meals. A bonus is the king bed in the master bedroom and a second bathroom to not have to share with the kids. We made great use of the pool as well. ##### cynara c.

Centrally located in the heart of the town, you can walk everywhere! Surrounded by shops and restaurants but quiet at the building. Well maintained pool and grounds. Three air conditioners so you can adjust the temperature in each room which was fantastic. Had everything you need for your stay - well equipped kitchen, beach towels and chairs. Very clean! Stayed here at the start of our trip and liked it so much returned again to stay for a second time. I would stay here again if I return to Tamarindo. Excellent response time from owner who offered advice about the area and things to do. ##### Barbara F.

When we arrived, there was a strange stain on one of the beds that soaked through to the mattress. They sent someone to wash the sheets. ##### Jason Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oscar G. 4 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Recomendado Excelente ubicación, cerca de todos los restaurantes y comercios.
