About this property

Spacious Condo with pool, 7min walk to the beach & town, Center of Tamarindo, CR

Casa Creativa, a beautiful 2bdr, 2.5 bath, tropical paradise, located in the heart of Tamarindo, Costa Rica just a 7 minute walk to the beach! Enjoy our spacious condo with newly renovated kitchen that comes fully equipped, AC units downstairs & in both bedrooms, free in-unit washer/dryer, free on site parking, and a beautiful shared pool/lounge area. Whether you are looking to surf the famous Tamarindo waves, embark on excursions, or just chill out, this is the vacation spot for you!

Our beautiful Casa Creativa, tropical paradise condominium is located in "La Buena Vida Condominiums", a luxury condominium project located on one of the two main streets in Tamarindo. Just a short 7 minute walk to the beach past shops, restaurants, bars, markets, the skate park, and more!

We are unit 7, located in the rear of the complex set away from the street to ensure a peaceful stay. The unit abuts a public "greenway", wooded area. Forget your worries in this spacious and serene space.

Only a 7 minute walk to the beach and a 4 minute walk to downtown Tamarindo where you can find restaurants, shops, bars, a skatepark, surfing, and more!

Our condo is two floors. The first floor has a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, living space, and a half bathroom. Upstairs there are two bedrooms. The main bedroom has a king sized bed and an ensuite full bathroom. Bedroom #2 has one queen sized bed, two twin sized beds, and an ensuite full bathroom. The main floor has a large AC unit that is enough to cool the entire first floor. Each bedroom has their own AC unit as well.

As far as outdoor spaces, there is an upper outdoor balcony overlooking the pool and a first floor patio area off of the kitchen.

Casa Creativa is stocked with basic kitchen amenities, bath towels, beach towels, books and a few board games. We also provide a Guest Welcome Book that should answer any questions you may have about your stay at Casa Creativa and in Tamarindo, Costa Rica.

The condo is fully air-conditioned throughout. No need to pack linens, towels, or basic toiletries. All are provided. Both ensuite full bathrooms come equipped with hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body soap. The living room and kitchen offer plenty of room to hang out inside to chat, play cards, watch television, or work remotely.

With a well-stocked kitchen (cookware, bakeware, tableware for 8, microwave, blender, 4-burner electric stove, oven, coffee maker, toaster, range, and full-sized refrigerator) you may choose to make your meals in your home away from home.

Enjoy a croissant made by the French pastry chef at Utopia, or bring takeout up to the condo from the outdoor food court, El Mercadito, just down the street. Tamarindo offers many great dining choices—everything from street food to fine cuisine. A wide variety of choices can be found within walking distance or a short drive. Check the Guest Welcome Book in the condo as well as in my Guidebook on this site for recommendations.

Live music, night clubs, and excitement are all just steps away, or you can choose to retreat to your private oasis at Casa Creativa.

You are also welcome to use the pool which is in the fenced courtyard of this quaint 9 unit condominium complex.

Free parking is available right outside the locked gate of the community.

Don’t miss the chance to enjoy this spectacular location!
Guests have full access to the entire space. You will not be sharing this space with anyone except the people you bring with you! Pura Vida

Pure Vida

That describes our vacation perfectly. We enjoyed the condo which was well equipped. Having the pool so close was a bonus. The gated scenic entry kept us from realizing we were even in town. We also used Beard & Wild for four outings. They were all fantastic and Sydney was so sweet and attentive to our needs. Having a small group tour was awesome. She also made suggestions for local food and activities and we enjoyed those. We would highly recommend this condo and the tour company! Thanks Teresa and Sydney.

Tamarindo

The only fault we found is that the kitchen stove needs replacing. Only 2 burners work on the stove and one of the two only works on high so we set off the fire alarms often. Otherwise everything was really good. Nice neighborhood 10 minutes to the beautiful beach

Short stay in Tamarindo

Very comfortable stay, great central location. Clean and comfortable. As mentioned in other reviews, the pool is not heated but it is very refreshing on/after a hot day. Parking is tight but we were able to make it work.

Great place to stay

The property was clean and inviting. The whole family loved the accommodations and location. The owner did warn us about how directions in the area are a little tricky and they were, but we were able to get there with their guidance. It was a perfect little home away from home. Highly recommend.

Perfectly located townhouse

We are a family of 6 that very comfortably stayed at this property for 3 nights. It’s well equipped and very clean and communications with the manager was exceptional! The pool is a gift and the perfect size and still feels personal. It’s located very well and you’re close to everything in walking distance even the beach. The beach is not the best and swimming has to be between the rocks, but we still enjoyed our time.

Cute place, Great location

My family and I enjoyed Casa Creativa! Sydney is beyond helpful and attentive!! Loved that both bedrooms had bathrooms. The pool is nicely located right outside the unit. My favorite is that the condo is in the heart of town, making walking to dinner, shops, groceries extremely easy! Would go back in a heart beat!

Amazing location. Best family vacation ever

This condo is in the perfect location, within walking distance to everything and just far enough so that it’s quite at night. It’s clean, comfy and has everything you need. Sydney is an amazing property manager and easy to communicate with, she met us at the gates upon check in which we have never experienced before with other rentals which was so amazing. The pool was very refreshing after a full day of adventures. There is a grocery store a block away which was so convenient, the medical clinic across the street was wonderful because unfortunately we did have to visit it the doctor was very good, the artisan coffee shop across the street to the right has great cappuccino and cinnamon buns don’t miss out on it, the ATM by the Vindi will accept Canadian bank cards and you can actually get USD out of them. I can’t say enough good stuff about this condo, the property manager, the area and just the whole experience. Would definitely recommend and would stay again. Oh and don’t forget to book a tour with beard and wild tours you definitely won’t regret it.

Great location!

This condo was well located, well equipped and very clean. The shops were close by. It was an easy walk to the best beach front in town. Even saw the Pura Vida show with the Costa man. It taught the history of Costa Rica through song, dance, live music, incredible audio and video. And even through magic. Venue was top notch. Not to be missed. The restaurants on the beach were magical. Beautiful cool breeze, random shows and great food. The kids really enjoyed the pool. The kitchen was well equipped. Everything worked. We could not have enjoyed our stay more. Communication with Teresa the property manager was fantastic! Pura Vida. We will be back!

Good value. Great support

We really enjoyed our stay. The team was very responsive and helpful when we needed a bit of help. The walk with small kids was a bit long for us (4 year old, 3 year old, 2 year old). Yet, we loved being by a grocery store, amazing food (La Oveja was our favorite) and an active neighborhood. The pool was not heated, so a bit cold for us.

About the host

Hosted by Teresa Grant

Host profile image
We are a family of 5 from Long Island, New York, USA, near the Atlantic Ocean and the Long Island Sound. We have lived our entire lives here near the sun and salt water so it was no surprise how fast we fell in-love with Costa Rica! We are all very involved and supportive of our adventure of owning a rental property in Costa Rica. Our youngest daughter has lived in Costa Rica since January of 2020. We fell in love with Costa Rica from the very first time we visited her in the Fall of 2020, which is why we decided to invest here. She has since started her own Tour Agency and manages our sweet condo to ensure our guests have the best experience they can possibly have.

Some things about me, Teresa, your host! I am addicted to Iced coffee and audio books. I LOVE the beach and still try to spend as much time there as possible. I love to paint and I have shared some of my artwork in our rental condo for your enjoyment.

Thank you so much for sharing our love of Costa Rica with us and staying at our lovely home away from home, Casa Creativa, located in Tamarindo, Costa Rica.
