Blue Iguana, steps from the beach / Playa Langosta - Houses for Rent in Playa Langosta, Provincia de Guanacaste, Costa Rica

The listing promises a peaceful escape. What you actually get is front-row seating to the road, where traffic provides the soundtrack to your vacation. The photos are a masterclass in creative framing because they somehow forgot to mention the missing door and window seals that invite geckos, ants, and every bug within a five-mile radius directly into the bedrooms. You’re not renting the house alone—you’re simply the largest species staying there. The kitchen doubles as a mouse thoroughfare. Nothing quite says “vacation” like watching rodents make their evening commute while you’re making dinner.  The ant infestation is relentless, insects are everywhere, and the stained, broken blinds are a reminder that maintenance appears to have checked out long before the guests arrived. Then there’s the air conditioning, which decided the middle of the night was the perfect time to quit.  House is for sale, maintenance isn’t happening.  Skip this house, go elsewhere if you want a good vacation!

We’re sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations. We respectfully disagree with many of the statements in this review, which we believe greatly exaggerate minor issues. Our home has welcomed more than 200 groups of guests over the past 10 years, and many have specifically commented on its charm, peaceful atmosphere, and excellent location. As is common in Costa Rica, you may occasionally see geckos or insects despite regular pest control, and these are part of the tropical environment. We take maintenance seriously and address any legitimate issues promptly. We encourage future guests to read our many other reviews to get a balanced picture of the experience we provide.

We enjoyed our stay in this private paradise. The beds were comfortable, the pool was warm, and it was close to restaurants and the beach. We used our car only a few times, as the location allowed us to walk along the beach to restaurants. We recommend this place!

I enjoyed my stay, beautiful house, great host. I’ll be back !

Wonderful accommodations for two families with one boy each. We enjoyed walking to town (about 10-15 minutes), all of the food options & beaches! The house was ideal for the Costa Rican outdoor living experience and the pool perfect for an afternoon cool-off. We felt very secure and enjoyed watching the birds while we drank coffee every morning. We have loved our first trip to Costa Rica!

We loved our time at the Blue Iguana! We had an issue with one of the AC units and Didier was so quick to respond! The pool was amazing, beds so comfy, and a wonderful private setting.

Gem in Playa Langosta.  The couple of critiques we had (mattresses were hard) are overshadowed by how beautiful this home is and the amazing location.  It was perfect for us with separate groups of older adults.  We would absolutely stay here again.

Very warm, pleasant and quiet accommodation. Matches the images and features mentioned in the description.

Logement très chaleureux, agréable et calme. Correspond aux images et caractéristiques mentionnées dans la description.

A very nice and pleasant house to share as a family Very good experience

Una casa muy linda y agradable para compartir en familia Muy buena experiencia

We had a wonderful time in this very nice villa with a host who is always available

Nous avons passé un moment magnifique dans cette très jolie villa avec un hôte toujours disponible

Very well located house near beaches. Nice pool.  Great for three couples. Had some ants in our unit and the AC in the master bedroom didn't work correctly. Didier was good in responding quickly, but AC issue couldn't be fixed until we left.

I sent twice  some technicians, who did not find any issues with the AC, and the next guests did not experience this problem, so it's kind of a mystery,

Great home in a wonderful location.  House was nice and we had great communication with the owner.  We didn’t need much communication since the house was so nice.

Travis was a great guest—quiet, clean, and considerate. We would be happy to host him again!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Perfect Tamarindo Stay! We had an amazing stay! The location couldn’t be better — just a few minutes’ walk to the beach, Tamarindo nightlife, markets, and grocery stores. The property is in a secure, peaceful compound with three private villas and a common house, which made it perfect for our group of couples. The pool was beautiful and such a great place to relax after a day out. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking, though the coffee maker could use an update (it took over an hour to brew a pot). A few boards on the deck were a little loose, but the host had a handyman there the next day — super responsive! A/C in every room kept us cool and comfortable, and having laundry on-site was a huge bonus. Overall, an excellent stay — we highly recommend this place!

This was an absolutely beautiful place to stay, we had a last minute change and Didier was able to accommodate us quickly. The house is beautiful. I loved the outdoor living spaces. The outdoor showers were such a nice touch after getting back from the beach and we loved how they connected to the bathrooms in each suite. The AC was nice and cold and each suite also has its own AC and bathroom. The location is beautiful and very close to everything you need. We just loved it and were so sad we didn't find this place earlier. Regarding some reviews about the bugs, just remember you're in the Jungle. There's no escaping bugs, you are in THEIR territory not the other way around. Luckily all we saw at the house was the ocasional ant. That was a very pleasant surprise, I don't even want to tell you what we've seen at other places.

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful, spacious home in Langosta. We loved the layout of the villas surrounding the pristine pool. The outdoor space was very relaxing and lush. Didier was an excellent host who always communicated in a timely manner. We would highly recommend staying at the Blue Iguana.

Amazing, great location, great hangout spot at the house

We had an excellent time at Didier's awesome home. The kids loved the pool and the morning monkeys. There are 3 separate rooms with full baths. It was great for our family or could be 3 couples with privacy. Safe, clean and very close to the beach. We will return. Thank you Didier.

Everything was perfect, the pool is special, and the house was very clean. They always had excellent communication, Didier was very nice to us. Perfect location We will be back!

Todo perfecto la piscina es especial, la casa estaba muy limpia. Siempre tuvieron excelente comunicación, Didier fue muy amable con nosotros. Ubicación perfecta. Volveremos.

Very nice accommodation. It feels a little unsafe at night due to the concept and design of the house. Nothing happened regarding this issue. But everything was very good.

Muy bonito alojamiento. Se siente un poco inseguro en las noches debido al concepto y diseño de la casa. No paso nada con respecto a este tema. Pero todo muy bien.

We're surprised by your feeling of insecurity, as this is the first time in our five years of renting a property that one of our guests has expressed this type of feeling. Typically, our guests feel perfectly safe, as if in a veritable fortress, thanks to the high walls surrounding the property. In fact, we've never had any thefts or break-ins. Please read the other reviews; they all reflect a sense of peacefulness.

Pros: Location is the best, 5 mins from Tamarindo, lots to do. The pool is amazing, the outside space is beautiful Cons: The level of insects invading the home was over whelming! It made it impossible to really relax, the amount of spiders was a lot to deal with. It was my family's first visit so I was unsure if this was normal for the country. The master is the only bathroom with hot water. Beds I personally had no issue, however my family felt they were a lil uncomfortable. There were limited wash clothes /towels, however the ones there should be replaced. Lastly there is no instructions concerning how to work lights, ceiling fans. The home is showing signs of being dated

Hi Tilya, Your review comes as a real surprise, especially since we never heard from you during your stay. If things were as bad as you now claim, it would’ve been expected—and appreciated—that you reach out. We are always available to resolve any concerns in real time. Instead, we only found out afterward—when your group left the house in unacceptable condition. The kitchen was left filthy, there were makeup stains on the bedding and towels, and hair extensions were left in the backyard. We also found hair extensions in the shower, and we had never seen the bedrooms left in such a dirty state. This level of disregard for the property is extremely disrespectful and not something we take lightly. We take great care of this home with regular maintenance and cleaning, and guest feedback has consistently reflected that. Your experience simply does not match the reality expressed by the vast majority of our visitors. We hope you take greater care and responsibility in future stays elsewhere.

Very happy with our stay. It’s a beautifully laid out place. The pool is great. It’s very comfortable. It’s close to town. It’s very private. The host is nice.

Very beautiful home! Loved the main house then rooms individually placed around the pool! Pool was amazing! Just needs to be maintained more regularly to keep the place beautiful. Things like stains on the shower curtains , doors off track and seat covers that could have easily been washed/replaced after each guest. And the main room had an odd smell we had to air out for a couple hours. No other complaints other than maintaining it more regularly between guests. Worth the price, very walkable and relaxing.

Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you loved the home, the layout, and the pool. However, we want to clarify that our property is consistently well-maintained by our dedicated housekeeper, handyman, and manager after each stay. Regarding the odor you mentioned, it was certainly from the cleaning products used to ensure the house is spotless for each guest. Additionally, our manager conducted a FaceTime video call with me to verify the condition of the property, and there were no stains—only some cushions that had been naturally discolored by the sun. If there had been any issue during your visit, we would have been happy to address it immediately—unfortunately, we were not made aware of any concerns at the time. In the future, please don’t hesitate to reach out so we can ensure everything meets your expectations. We appreciate your stay and hope to welcome you again!

We loved the setup of 3 villas with their own king beds and private bath areas. There was ample garage room for vehicles and the area was extremely safe.

Wonderful stay. You won’t be disappointed

Even better than the photos. True indoor outdoor living.  Private secure location.  Walkable to great attractions.

I'm glad you liked the property and enjoyed your stay!

Our family stay was excellent. Perfect accomodations for our group of 6 with 3 separate rooms with king sized beds 3 brothers and 3 sister in laws from the Kansas City area and central mountains south of Denver. Their first trip to Costa Rica and our 3rd trip. Such a cool vibe here...Kept busy for our 5 day stay. A canopy tour, mangrove boat tour, sunset cruise not to mention beach time :-) This was a great location as very walkable and we all were so comfortable and safe. The restaurants are exceptional and language was not a barrier for us. Our host was incredibily responsive...would book another time for certain.

I'm glad that you had a great time with your family. We always strive to accommodate our guests as best as possible and yes Costa Rica has a lot offer.

Beautiful home with the needed amenities to make our short stay as two families comfortable.  Very close to great dining options and a short walk to the beach.

The house was exactly as described and Didier was immediate with answers (when I had questions).  The house is within walking distance to downtown Tamarindo and the beach.  Great place!

Beautiful home, great location, overall, awesome stay. We were a little lost, but Didier was quick to respond and very helpful, despite being on vacation himself. I loved everything about the house and my time there. I highly recommend renting this unit!

I’m glad that you enjoyed your stay at the house, feel free to come back at any time.

We had a wonderful time at Didier's Blue Iguana. The location provided quiet, being a short golf cart ride from town but walkable if preferred. It was a quick walk to the nearest beach. The house was great for five of us, with three bed/bath detached units surrounding the pool, so private but communal, with a common kitchen/living room. The rooms all had air conditioning so could sleep or relax in comfort from the hot tropical temperatures. Didier was responsive when we had issues with the dryer (easy circuit breaker fix) and hot water in the master bathroom. Overall, would highly recommend the Blue Iguana if you are inTamarindo.

The house was great, well located in a quiet area just a few minutes walking from downtown Tamarindo. The beach was close by, as well a small supermarket, plenty restaurants and the shops in Tamarindo. The swimming pool provided much cooling during a very hot week while we were there. Didier was a very responsive host! In addition he provided a high chair and crib for our 1 year old grandson, which was much appreciated. Overall our experience was good. The watchout is that directly adjacent to the property there is new construction ongoing, resulting in a lot of noise and dust.

The Blue Iguana is fantastic.  The property is so unique in the best ways.  The photos do not do the place justice.  It's even better than advertised.  The host was incredibly responsive when I had questions.  The place was immaculate when we arrived.  Our only regret is that we weren't able to stay in it longer.  It was the perfect answer to what we needed during our trip to Costa Rica.

Beautiful home & well set up with three separate bungalows of sorts for privacy & comfort.

Didier is a fantastic host. He was very accessible during our stay and also included a comprehensive insurrection sheet that was so helpful for navigating the house. The pool is a fantastic addition to the house for the heat in Tamarindo.

The house looks just like the pictures and it's beautiful! Good location within walking distance to town, the beach and some small restaurants that are in the neighborhood. The house is private with high gates. The layout of the house is great, with each room having their bathroom and separated from each other. The downfall of the rooms is that the doors are made of wood and glass and most don't close right. This means that mosquitoes get through the cracks at night while you're sleeping, and you wake upon with lots of bites. This also means that some bedroom doors don't lock, which made us feel unsafe. The neighborhood feels safe, but I would still prefer to lock my bedroom doors at night. There was also construction on the properties next door, which generated a lot of dust. I know that this wasn't the owners fault, but living in dust for days made it hard to fully enjoy the property. Also, the water was shut off at 7 pm almost every day. Also, that's not the owners fault.

Didier’s Airbnb is actually better than the photos - it’s spacious and large - tree & plant covered grounds and a high ceiling in the modern kitchen/livingroom area. The 3 bedrooms are each in a separate cottage - this is perfect for us since we were traveling with adult children. The most luxurious feature was the swimming pool - very much appreciated given the heat & sun. Didier keeps in touch as well - very responsive. Another perk: a 5 minute walk to a spectacular beach! ￼

Beautiful private home, well located in nice neighborhood with easy walk to busy town. Nice clean pool. Tvs in every bedroom with ability for outside viewing as well. Clean well equipped kitchen and laundry room. Host is extremely responsive and helpful. We loved our stay.

Beautiful home within walking distance to the restaurants and everything else. Host was always responsive, beds are confortable and clean, love the setup of the home, kitchen has all you need. Must bring your on soap and shampoo.

We stayed at the Blue Iguana for a month over Christmas. Location was perfect walking distance from Tamarindo and in a normally quieter neighbourhood. Unfortunately for us we were surrounded by two new builds on either side of us so it was often difficult to find quiet during the daytime. It is definitely designed for everyone to have a common area and also offering a personal space for everyone who needed it. The pictures shown are accurate in layout and furniture, though they are not recent pictures. We loved having the pool as a central point and spent most of our time in the outdoor living space. Didier was very quick to respond to any issues that arose. The weekly cleaning service was greatly appreciated and perfectly timed.

Gorgeous Airbnb and great host! The place is spacious and the pool is clean and well cared for.

Feels like being in your own private resort! Great amenities, instant communication, king size very comfortable beds, full size kitchen with everything you need. We had a great time relaxing at the beautiful property.. Walking distance to a great restaurant, Cala Luna, the beach and town. Highly recommend! Thanks Didier.

This property is just amazing! My expectations were exceeded and we truly had a great time. Easy to find, clear instructions, quiet street, just like the photos, and so on... To top it off, the host, Didier, had excellent communication both before and during my stay. He was extremely helpful, accommodating, and reliable. Two thumbs up for sure!!

Great location . Great Host . House was absolutely beautiful. It was the perfect house .

5 stars all the way. Extremely satisfied with our stay. The place is a bit unassuming from the outside which is actually really cool. You walk through some large doors into a beautiful space that feels very private. It’s even nicer than it looks in the pictures. The layout is unique, decor is simple and elegant. Everything was clean and all the furniture and bedding were very comfortable.  We only had a few days in Tamarindo but we ended up spending a significant portion of it at the place (mostly lounging in the pool) because we enjoyed it so much. There is a very convenient market close by, a bunch of restaurants, and the beach is super close. We absolutely loved the Playa Langosta area Vs staying in Tamarindo. Much quieter. Also communication with Didier was fantastic. Overall I can’t imagine anyone not loving a stay at this beautiful place.

Beautiful house and great location close enough to Tamarindo while being in a more peaceful and quiet location. About a 10-15 min walk to town but a local supermarket, restaurants, and beach within 5 minute walk. Howler monkeys and beautiful birds every day were a bonus. Didier was very responsive and helpful leading up to our stay and while we were there. He provided a list of recommendations for transportation, restaurants, and excursions- great experience from all that we used. Would definitely book again and can’t wait to return. Pura Vida!

Thank you Faith, I'm glad that you enjoyed your stay at Blue Iguana,

The house is very spacious and well designed, just like in the photos. I highlight the kitchen that is big and wonderful! Didier is a friendly and considerate Host. Luckily the house is in a quiet area a 15-minute walk from the center of Tamarindo that we didn't like because it's a very touristy area full of especially American people. We tried some of Didier's suggestions and especially like Pico Bistrot and the Wholefoods-style Auto Market supermarket with plenty of variety and quality. As a negative point, I refer only to the blinds of the main suite damaged, which did not go up or down that removed privacy from night and brightness from day to day. We were told they were ordered new. Tamarindo is definitely not the kind of holiday area we like but 20/30 min by car there are fantastic beaches like Avellanas and Playa Negra. I recommend Didier's house for those who like very touristy areas because the house and the pool are good!

A casa é muito espaçosa e bem concebida, exactamente como nas fotografias. Realço a cozinha que é grande e maravilhosa! Didier é um Anfitrião simpático e atencioso. Felizmente a casa fica numa zona calma a 15 minutos a pé do centro de Tamarindo que não gostámos pois é uma zona muito turística, cheia de pessoas especialmente americanos. Experimentamos algumas das sugestões do Didier e gostamos especialmente do Pico Bistrot e do supermercado Auto Mercado ao estilo Wholefoods com bastante variedade e qualidade. Como ponto negativo refiro apenas os estores da suite principal estragados, que não subiam nem desciam que retiraram privacidade de noite e luminosidade de dia ao quarto. Foi nos dito que estavam encomendados novos. Tamarindo não é definitivamente o tipo de zona de férias que gostamos mas a 20/30 minutos de carro há praias fantásticas como a Avellanas e a Playa Negra. Recomendo a casa de Didier para quem goste de zonas bastante turísticas pois a casa e a piscina boas!

Didier was incredibly responsive and flexible with our check in and out and even helped us with transport recommendations from Arenal to Tamarindo. His home looked like it came out of the pages of Architectural Digest - incredible interior design yet very comfortable . My college age son appreciated having his own private cabana space and the pool was very clean and a welcome retreat. Highly recommend and would come back with friends next time!

We loved our stay here. Close to everything and we could walk to the beach.

We had a great family vacation in Playa Langosta! The home is beautiful & stylish-we honestly felt like we had our own resort! We were traveling with our grown up kids, so the layout with separate casitas surrounding the pool was perfect.  We were all close by each other, but could still have privacy as well.  The location is perfect- you can walk to the beach, to a small grocery store, and to some delicious restaurants. We rented a golf cart so we could zip into town for shopping, many more restaurant options, and of course, sunset happy hours! The pool and outdoor patio were perfect- we used them every day. The kitchen was well stocked for the few meals that we made at home.  And Didier was so quick to respond if we had any issues or questions- he was a fantastic host!  We'll be back for sure. Some of our personal faves to share with other travelers- Pangas and Fish & Cheeses for dinners, La Oveja for breakfast, and Langosta Beach Club for the $5 sunset happy hours! Pura Vida!

Blue Iguana was absolutely amazing. We loved this getaway. It looks exactly like the photos ad it felt like we were in a paradise. It is in a great location and easy to get to everything. If we had any questions Didier always responded right away and it was a fantastic experience. We will definitely be staying here again. Juan & Kelly

Beautiful property, close to town and beautiful surroundings.

Beautiful accommodations in an area just outside of the busy hustle of Tamarindo.  We loved this place!  Our son kept asking to go back so he could go swimming in the pool :)

Wonderful stay! Didier’s place was the perfect spot. The house is stunning - very relaxing laying by the pool. It is spacious and very clean. You are close to the restaurants/stores/beach there was no vehicle needed & the host is quick to respond. Definitely recommend:)

Great pool and sitting area, the 3 separate king bedrooms with onsuite gives everyone there own space. Close location to the beach and town.

Didier and his wife are INCREDIBLE hosts. They are serious about making you feel comfortable in their home and it is truly a paradise. Their communication and responsiveness was unmatched to many other hosts I have dealt with around the world. If you had any questions, concerns or recommendations, Didier was helpful in all regards and would respond very timely. The home: it is paradise away from the hustle and bustle of Tamarindo. Three little villas are beautiful and offer privacy in a group setting. Plenty of wildlife around the property gives you that unique rainforest vibe, from monkeys to iguanas to ant eaters to toucans, we saw it all. It is reasonably about a 15/20 min walk into town. There are a few restaurants even closer if you head the opposite direction of the “town”. Truly a golf cart for even a few days is a game changer to explore all the different sides of town left and right of the home. There are plenty of restaurants nearby that don’t appear on the map. 10/10 !!

Thank you for your private input, I’m definitely going to take care of those points.

Iguana Blue was great! The house is perfect!

There aren’t enough stars! Didier’s home is better than the photos. It was the perfect set up for traveling with our two 20-something kids. Everyone had their own space but we were still connected. The outdoor space and pool was so beautiful and comfortable. We made breakfast the last morning in the kitchen and it made us wish we had eaten more meals at the house because it was just so well appointed and comfortable. The immediate neighborhood has restaurants and a small (well-stocked) market, which are very convenient and the main busy area of Tamarindo is only a short walk away. We definitely did not need a car. We had fun renting a golf cart for a few days but it’s an easy walk to the beach or to any restaurant we would want to go to in Tamarindo. The design of the house is really beautiful and everything was of great quality, e.g. nice linens and comfortable beds! I had a few minor questions throughout the stay and Didier was super responsive, friendly and helpful.

Blue Iguana is very private, an oasis from the hubbub of Tamarindo. The patio has a small and very well maintained pool (more for playing and lounging than for laps). Style is contemporary. Blue Iguana is not on the beachfront and doesn’t have views, but you can access the coastline with just a 5 minute walk. Didier was super responsive as a host, offered us a free cleaning service midweek, and fixed a minor issue with one of the AC units the same day. Just a 2 minute walk away is “Fish and Cheeses,” a delightful Italian restaurant run by actual Italians, they make their own burrata and pasta, and have a friend who smokes the trout. Highly recommended!

My family came over to Tamarindo from La Fortuna during our stay. I have been the Tamarindo 14yrs prior and I knew it was a busy beach town. When we got there I found a hugely bigger and busier town. I was a little shocked,  but when we pulled up to the property just 3 min from down town and walked in, it was like our private, beautiful escape. When you open the massive wood door to the main room you feel the quality of the house. The kitchen was modern and well laid out. The accordion doors going out back were so nice and the private pool area and patio were stunning. Our boys had there own separate bungalows and the master was wonderful.  As my wife said, anytime we got back to the house after spending time in town.. "This feels like our own private resort ". Great location, walk to the beach and downtown.  Great restaurants as well.

Location was perfect accommodations were very nice.

Blue Iguana is a great option for groups or families with older kids. The three bedrooms offer privacy while the courtyard, pool, and main house give you plenty of space to be together. It is close enough to the beach and the town but very quiet at night. We had a great time there. Didier is incredibly responsive and makes the entire process a breeze.

Blue Iguana was an incredible house with 3 fantastic bedrooms! From indoor & outdoor showers, fully stocked kitchen, pool, covered parking and powerful AC. There’s nothing missing for a short or extended stay at this house. The location is about a 8 min ride in a golf cart from the center of Tamarindo. Didier was an extremely responsive host and always available to answer any questions within the hour most times. I will most certainly be back!

We had an amazing experience at this Airbnb! The set up of it was perfect for our girls trip where everyone had their own small bungalow with shower & bathroom and then there is a common area with living room and kitchen. It is about 10 min walking distance from the beach and 15 min walking distance from town . We had a golf cart so it was super easy and fast to get to places we wanted to go. Didier was great with communication and helped us out right away when we needed. The neighbors are also very nice and look out for each other. We definitely felt very safe at this Airbnb! Would definitely book again!

Amazing spot on the more private end of Tamarindo. This was my second trip to Costa Rica and Tamarindo is a place I will come back to in the future! The house location is PERFECT: 5-7 min walk to a couple beaches that are beautiful and pretty private. 10-12 minute walk to the more crowded (but fun) beach stretch with bars, massages, and surf lessons. About a mile walk to the heart of the town with all the shops, cafes, restaurants, and beach bars. The house itself is awesome: Really amazing and private indoor/outdoor living concept, with separate structures surrounding the beautiful yard and pool. Structures include the main living room and kitchen area, and then 3 separate king bed suites, each with desks, walk in closets, and a bathroom with indoor AND outdoor showers. The refreshing salt water pool is really perfect, as is the well-maintained lawn and landscaping. Some days it was hard to leave for the beach with such a great living space out your bedroom door. All in all we had a fantastic time. Didier was super responsive whenever we had questions, and sent us beach suggestions. I appreciated that he genuinely wanted us to have a great stay - and we hope to be back soon.

Didier's home is a wonderful retreat. It's location is quiet. It is near enough to town to walk but not too close for the noise and bustle. The 3 separate suites are perfect for 3 couples. There is plenty of space to gather together as well as plenty of space for privacy. The kitchen is well equipped and roomy enough for many people to prepare food together. The true star of the property is the central courtyard and pool. A real luxury! Didier was also very responsive and helpful when we would reach out to him.

The AirBnB is even better in person than it is in photos, and it is in a fantastic location close to town, restaurants, and the beach.  Didier was communicative and friendly.

Wouldn’t change a thing. The pictures don’t even give it the justice it deserves! Perfect for three couples. Do not look any further. Oh and, langosta beach sunsets are the most epic!

Place was super great clean and great set up with the kitchen separate and rooms all private and pool in center! Great location walking distance to all fun restaurants bars grocery store and shopping! I would recommend getting a golf cart super fun Can’t wait to come back!!

This oasis about 4 minutes drive from the center of Tamarindo has all you need to have a wonderful stay.  Entering the seemingly unassuming compound turns into plenty of "wow" moments as you walk through the kitchen, the pool, and then three private villas, each with its own bathroom and outdoor shower.  The pool is a delight as well as the outdoor living/dining area.  You can even see a band of howler monkeys living in the nearby forests.  The property is a quick drive to all the activities on the beach...highly recommended to grab a meal to go after watching the sunset on the beach and enjoying the meal at home.  Stay here!

It is a beautiful place, modern and very well-equipped. Count on everything you need for a perfect holiday. 100% recommended.

Es un lugar precioso, moderno y muy bien equipado. Cuenta con todo lo necesario para unas vacaciones perfectas. 100% recomendado.

The set up of this place was perfect for our group. I came with a three month old and having each room as a separate unit meant that no one else was disturbed when the baby was up at night. The location also worked perfectly since our group all had different interests. The little waves of Tamarindo are good for the kids, the bigger waves at Langosta good for my brother in law who wanted to shortboard and plenty of eating options within 5-15 minute walk. Additionally, two in our group were remote working and the wifi was strong enough for both to have zero issues with video meetings all day. The kitchen is also very well stocked. The only item we missed was a bbq, but no big deal. Thanks again Didier!

Beautiful villa- close to beach and restaurants!

Overall very good nice, modern and clean place. Good location from the beach. Walkable. Far enough from the touristy area. Also, very quiet.

This place is awesome and had all we needed. Very close to Tamarindo but far enough to have a quite relaxing stay. Really recommend  Didier's place
