Beachfront, Private Pool, Jacuzzi & Beach Access - Houses for Rent in Tamarindo, Guanacaste, Costa Rica

The home is beautiful and the community it is in has everything you need. The host is extremely helpful, proactive and responsive. The staff are amazing and it felt like we were staying at a hotel. The bed are also the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in.

We had a group of 18 staying here. The house was perfect for our size and to accommodate all the families! We absolutely loved the house and the location. It’s a bit further from Tamarindo where there is stuff to do but it was such a beautiful house and location with the ocean view, we barely left! We did UTV tours one day and they came and picked us up and dropped us off at the front door. It was awesome! We had Chef Frender, Juan, and Jorge cook for us one night. They made fajitas with chicken, shrimp, fish, steak, and roast. IT WAS AMAZING! Their food was better than any food eating out. It was absolutely delicious. We ended up doing the premium package which we felt was somewhat worth our money. The ladies made the same exact thing for breakfast every morning so it got a little redundant but was still tasty. Other than that, our stay was perfect! We hated to leave!

Thank you for the lovely review, Brittany! We're so glad your family enjoyed the property, as well as the chef services and UTV activity. We'd love to host you again next time!

This home was such a great experience. It’s even more beautiful in person. My family and I were immediately stunned by the beauty of the home and location when we walked in. The staff were amazing and very friendly. We felt welcome the entire time. 10/10 I would recommend this home.

Elsa was great. The place is amazing and on the beach. Construction next door was a non issue. Elsa was very helpful booking activities and accommodations while we were in Costa Rica. The staff at the house great, breakfast was wonderful every morning, and they keep the place very clean everyday. Highly recommend

Thank you for your kind words, Rob! We're glad Elsa and the team made your stay enjoyable and helped with activities. It's great to hear you loved the beachside location and the daily breakfasts. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back soon!

The house was absolutely beautiful and the community the house is located in was awesome. Golf course was very fun to play and very well maintained. The beach access at the house was incredible, and the other beach that's better for surfing at the beach club was amazing as well. Unfortunate side is that the beach community of Tamarindo is a little far away, being over a half hour away depending on traffic. However, that's the only complaint, if you can even call it that, that I have about my stay. The housekeepers were very nice, helpful, and the meals they cooked for us were delicious. Elsa was a tremendous host, was very kind, responsive, and gave us great recommendations for activities to do during our stay. Will definitely recommend Stay in Tamarindo to friends and family.

Thank you for your amazing review, Nathan! We're really happy to hear that you had an amazing time at Casa Costa Blanca and enjoyed your vacation. We hope to see you again soon, Pura Vida!

Overall it was a good experience staying in this place. We liked the location and easy access to the beach. The beach was not good for swimming but great place to watch sunset. The house and some of the furnitures inside are pretty old and needs some upgrades. The pool and outdoor patio is pretty new and looks and works very well. The staff were amazing and we considered them as the highlight of this trip. House mom made great breakfast everyday and the cleaners did their best to make this a good overall experience for us.

What a great place to stay in Costa Rica! Right on the beach. Full service. Felt like a four seasons villa. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

The Villa was an incredible compound that had 6 rooms and an outdated Casita separate from the house. Bedding and furniture need to be upgraded soon (this I read in another review and it’s seems to be the same still) an incredible view of the ocean but a very rocky beach with a ton of corral so don’t expect to go for morning swims. However the amenities and views could not overcome the lack of effort and communication that the staff and its associates had put forth to blindside our trip with a number of extremely costly and serious health consequences. We had payed for chefs to cook and had politely requested that breakfast be ready by 7:30am to ensure we had an adequate amount of time to be ready for the any activity’s and excursions that we had made plans for, they said they would accommodate our request but each day they were 45 min to an hour late which interfered with plans We had ordered $600+ dollars in food in which we found out 1/4 of the food was expired but not until AFTER 7 people in our group got food poison and had severe reactions to eating expired eggs in which 2 family members needed medical treatment. It wasn’t till after our family suffered that the “chefs” brought moldy and outdated food to us, simply to show it was bad and that they were throwing it away. The chefs we had paid for was not in fact a chef but the maids who got right to cleaning our restrooms, rooms and entire Villa. We are appalled at how we were treated and accused of smoking INSIDE the faculty and had been pressured by management to pay for a fine the amount of our entire 5 day stay. I cannot begin to express the frustration that we had endured and overall the impact that it had of a trip that was supposed to be a nice family getaway. This was one of the most stressful vacations we’ve ever had to live through. With the beautiful house and amazing views I absolutely cannot recommend any of my friends or family’s or associates to reside and go through what we had went through. We will be seeking relief from malicious and exploitative fines.

Hi Michael,  We are very saddened to read your comments about your recent experience at Casa Costa Blanca and our service. We would like to address the most important aspects of your comments and provide more details and clarity to our audience and potential customers as it is fair to explain the real facts behind your feedback.  House mum Service: As described in our listing, Casa Costa Blanca "includes" staff that will pamper you with daily breakfast preparation and cleaning from 8 am -4 pm. We never promised you a chef and it is also very surprising to us that you claim you paid for this, as we never charge extra fees for this, it is included with the house. Regarding your request about breakfast needing to be served earlier during your time at the house, we accommodated by adjusting the staff's schedule, which we do with all of our guests. Our staff had breakfast ready by 7:30 am every day and unfortunately, the group chose not to eat until around 10 am daily. For this reason, we are confused by your acquisition that the breakfast wasn't ready at the time you requested, also all of your excursions, which we arranged for you were during the afternoon.   Property Location: The house is indeed located in front of a rocky beach, which can be enjoyed by most of our customers who value the views of the magical sunset from the home balconies and terraces, incredible snorkeling experiences thanks to the large coral formations you mentioned and furthermore the relaxing tide pools formed during the low tide. Hacienda Pinilla also offers 3 other beaches where you can relax, surf, and swim, which happen to be a 5 min drive from the house. We truly wish you had taken the time to explore more of these amazing beach locations.  Decor: Costa Blanca is a colonial yet luxury home. Many visitors love the house layout and colonial decor, however, we understand there are others who don't and look for a more contemporary look. With that in mind, we try to set the right expectations by providing you with updated photos of the property on the listing platform. The same photos you saw when you booked the house.  Regarding your accusation about being poisoned by our staff with expired food- We used our sister company to stock your fridge, we have records of the invoices and pictures of every item we delivered and we are happy to share them with you so you can reconfirm they were in great condition. Your statement of having 7 people positioned by the food prepared by our staff is beyond confusing since your entire group ate the same breakfast menu every day; omelets to be more precise. If food was indeed expired, the 14 of you would have been sick at the same time and from the first day of your stay. We also can't think of which other products would have been expired and moldy since you never brought this to our attention. If you have told us about this during your time there we would have immediately contacted our provider and asked for the immediate replacement of the items.  Last but not least, you did break the rules and smoked inside the rental. We have correspondence with you about this subject and our formal complaint to Airbnb in which they approached you to express that fines MIGHT apply if you continued with this behavior. We did not charge any fine for this incident as our goal was that you followed the rules you agreed on when booking the rental.   Again we are very saddened by our comments and we wish there would have been better communication. We invite you to come to stay with us again as we are very confident in our commitment to our guests and their overall experience.   All the best,  Stay in Tamarindo Team

Casa Costa Blanca is better in real life than the pictures portray (hard to believe).  From the beautiful, clean, large home to the resort-like palapa, pool, and private beach our stay was loaded with fun and memories.  What made our stay unbelievable was the attention the staff gave our families.  Everyday our home was cleaned and immaculate and our breakfast was prepared and delicious.  The ladies that took care of all of the daily home and food needs were so kind and willing to do everything and anything, so we could enjoy ourselves and not be preoccupied with chores and cooking!  If we could, we would be back next week!  Thank you for the awesome vacation-what a blessing! What a home!  Thank you Casa Costa Blanca and everyone associated with it!  Gracias. Gracias. Gracias.

Hi Joshua,   Thank you so much for your kind comments about Casa Costa Blanca and our staff.   We are so happy to read that you found the house better in real life than in the pictures and that you've enjoyed being pampered by our staff. It's true we have an amazing venue with a super accommodating team, who is willing to do everything to make sure you have an unbelievable time. As you described their food is delicious and yes, they put lots of passion into everything they do to please our guests.   Once again, we are grateful for your nice comments and THANK YOU so much for letting us be your hosts. See you next time.   Pura Vida  Stay in Tamarindo Team.

I had planned a retreat in the San Juan Del Sur area of Nicaragua for a group of 16 women. When we couldn’t get across the border, I had to re-create a retreat in less than a few hours. Finding this home, near Tamarindo, was serendipitous! Literally, I booked it the day of and we were so thankful that we could pivot and have an amazing week. Mariam, the concierge is incredible — she is a wealth of knowledge and so wonderful to work with. The views & the outdoor space are stunning. The interior of the house could use a bit of updating…but, we spent most of our time outside. We really appreciated the daily housekeeping and Gabi and Meredit who cooked us delicious breakfasts! Highly recommend a stay here if you’re traveling with a big group. Note - you will need to arrange a car or plan to take taxis when you want to go into town (it’s about a 20 min drive)

Thank you Mollie for your review! We're happy to know you had a great experience booked at the last minute! Thank you for highlighting Mariam, Gabi and Meredit services! We look forward to welcoming you again in Costa Rica! Pura Vida!

We had an amazing time at casa Costa Blanca. The house is amazing - exactly like it looks on the pictures. It was very clean and the on-site staff was very friendly and helpful. The communication with the host(s) was very easy and timely, we felt very welcomed. Overall 10/10 and we can’t wait to go back!

Hi Katja,   Thank you so much for your great comments about Casa Costa Blanca and our services. We are happy to know you found the house clean and that communication was timely and you felt welcomed.   We look forward to being your host once again sometime soon.   Pura Vida, Stay In Tamarindo

Pictures don’t do justice!! We came here with a group of friends and the home offered plenty of space and privacy for all. It’s located in a beautiful gated community. From recommendations to day trips and transportations, the leasing office was extremely helpful and responsive. During our stay the house staff went above and beyond- we couldn’t be more appreciative of their hospitality. If you want a front row seat to some of the best sunsets, we’d highly recommend this home. We’ll be back for sure!

Courtney, we are thrilled to hear you loved your stay and had an amazing vacation. So glad you enjoyed the house and the beautiful sunsets.  Hope to see you again next year!

The photos do not do this place justice. We were a group of 8 making our way through Costa Rica on a birthday celebration and this home was perfect.  We had ample space (the second floor is a direct duplication of the first!), amazing backyard space, and a wonderful pool to enjoy.  We played dominos, played music late into the night, grilled dinners and enjoyed the breakfast prepared by the lovely home keepers. Truly memorable!!!! Thank you to everyone who tended to us and made us feel so welcome!

Bree, Thank you so much for your positive review and comments! Nothing makes us happier than happy guests and you and your group were not exception.  So glad to hear you loved your stay at Casa Costa Blanca and you had the best experience. I'm so happy we made you feel well taken care of at a home away from home during your relaxing time off and hope you come back very soon!

Beautiful home, great for families. We would definitely come back again!

Thank you Adam, Glad to know you loved the house and it was great for your family. Hope to have you back soon!

Exceeded all my expectations!! This house is incredible in every way!! The pictures don’t do it justice! On top of that, the staff at Stay in Tamarindo were incredible! From the moment the planning began with our concierge, Mariam, no detail was left undone. We had a very busy itinerary planned and it went off flawlessly!!! From the grocery shopping ahead of time, perfectly planned dinners, shuttle pick ups for all the activities. The house is simply breathtaking. We didn’t want to leave and we will be back!!

Thank you so much Kelle for your glowing review! We are thrilled that Casa Costa Blanca was perfectly suited for your family and that your experience in the area and the house went over the top. We will certainly recognize Mariam for her great effort to make your stay memorable and happy she was able to help you in every way possible. Thank you again for staying with us and hope you will make Costa Rica and Casa Costa Blanca a repeat destination. Pura Vida
