Awesome Vacation

Our stay at this VRBO was absolutely fantastic! We had two families with teens, and the house was exactly as advertised — no surprises, just perfection.We rented golf carts, which made it a quick two-minute drive to town. While the walk is easy and totally doable, the carts were a fun and convenient touch. The outdoor space by the pool was a favorite hangout, and the rooftop deck? Perfect for watching sunsets.The house was spotless, and the beds were insanely comfortable — seriously, some of the best sleep we've had!Cris was incredible, taking care of all our excursions and even helping us adjust plans when things changed. She was incredibly responsive — if you reached out, you'd get a reply in seconds!And then there’s Ani... she was AMAZING! Her breakfasts were delicious, and each morning came with a fresh new juice smoothie. Don’t miss out on her pico, guac, and salsa — we were tempted to pack some for the trip home!There was some construction nearby, but it didn’t take away from our experience at all.We’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone — friends, family, or anyone looking for a memorable stay. Can't wait to go back!

Pura Vida!

The house is as described. It was beautifully appointed and the set up was perfect. The house is two mirror image units- so if you were traveling with two families and wanted to lock the door between the units for privacy you could. Both units open on to a beautiful sun deck and built in infinity pool. There are double chaise lounges, cushioned chairs, umbrellas, dining tables, and sun awnings (MUCH needed) as well as a grill. The communication with Stay in Tamarindo (property management group) could be easier, but with that said it wasn't bad, just not as quick or as organized as past vacations to other destinations. Some communication coming via email and other through What's App. Despite this, Cris, our concierge, ultimately handled our questions and scheduled some of our activities (we planned some others directly). More affordable to book directly, but convenient if they book and arrange transportation should you not have a car at your disposal. Cris did arrange round trip airport transfers and provided name of grocery stocking services and private chef services prior to our arrival- all were excellent! One note: we did order groceries ahead and chose the breakfast packages as the house includes a House Mom who will prepare breakfast, snacks, and smoothies and drinks if the groceries are provided. We had a lot of extra fruits, cereals, OJ, Milks etc- so maybe order a little less (we were a group of 9). Viv's guac & pico de Gallo were favorites!
