Tamarindo Oasis | 3BR Villa & Private Pool - Villas for Rent in Tamarindo, Provincia de Guanacaste, Costa Rica

Book it without hesitation. Suitable for groups and family as well. Very responsive and proactive host. Stefano had everything set up from our arrival till departure between the drivers golf carts and local recommendations. The pool was very refreshing I was in it every day. The place is clean close to the action and quite enough for some good sleep as well. WiFi super fast and AC and all other amenities in tact. Can’t wait to come back thank you for hosting us.

We are glad you had a great time with us! Olga

Everything is good. Good communication with the manager. No complaints.

Todo bien. Buena comunicación con la encargada. Sin quejas.

Amazing place to stay. Booked a 5 night stay here and had an amazing time. Highly recommend.

A tidy and quiet place; the instructions were always clear, and the house was fully equipped.

un lugar ordenado y tranquilo, siempre estuvieron claras las instrucciones, la casa se encontraba completamente equipada

Stefani was great.  Would recommend and would stay again.

Excellent place! Highly recommended, great location, close to downtown Tamarindo.

Excelente lugar! Recomiendo bastante, gran localización, cerca de tamarindo centro.

The good - the outdoor space is lovely and the pool was very clean and well maintained. As others have mentioned, it’s located up a very steep hill, but we rented a golf cart and had no issues. The inside of the home could use a good clean and some maintenance as it’s showing a lot of wear. The beds are VERY firm. Stains on the bath towels with no extras, missing hand towels in a few bathrooms and we found a previous guests’ toothbrush beside the bathroom sink.  The kitchen sink/counters were also dirty when we arrived. We did not bother asking for a clean as we felt better just cleaning it ourselves, so I can’t comment on the management of it, but Olga was helpful with other questions we had and helping us with the golf cart rental.

Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us for 8 nights. We’re very happy to hear you enjoyed the outdoor space, the pool, and that we could assist you with the golf cart rental and other questions during your stay. We are sorry to hear about the cleanliness and maintenance concerns you mentioned in your review. During your stay, we were always available and happy to help, and since these issues were never reported to us at the time, we unfortunately did not have the opportunity to send our team to address them right away. Had we known, we would have gladly arranged an additional cleaning and checked everything immediately. We truly appreciate your comments, as they help us improve the guest experience, and we will review these details with our housekeeping and maintenance teams. Thank you again for staying with us, and we wish you all the best in your future travels. Pura Vida!

Really enjoyed our stay! Ran into a plumbing issue but the host was super responsive and helped us within the hour. Would definitely stay here again! Great location!

Great spot with really nice pool area. Would definitely go back.

This place was incredible. My friends found it and booked the one half and then we booked the attached one. All in one compound. We were 8 adults and were very comfortable in the 2 houses (total 6 bed 6 bath). Olga was an amazing contact giving us great recommendations. Definitely book a golf cart. The house is on a large hill and when you’re 50 and a lazy guy it’s great to have the cart to run to the store or restaurant or beach or bar. The pool was incredible. We spent so many hours in the sunny yard. Really a beautiful complex. Highly recommend.

We liked the house very much. Its distraction, social area, equipped kitchen, outdoor area, garden and pool It feels like a very cozy space It is relatively close to the beach and the tourist and shopping area We received everything clean and the pool is cleaned every day. We would stay there again The price is very affordable considering that Tamarindo is an expensive place. Very happy. Thank you

Nos gustó mucho la casa. Su distracción, área social, cocina equipada, área exterior, jardín y alberca Se siente un espacio muy acogedor Está relativamente cerca de la playa y del área turística y comercial Todo lo recibimos limpio y además la alberca la limpian todos los días. Nos volveríamos a quedar ahí El precio muy accesible considerando que tamarindo es un lugar caro. Muy contentos. Muchas gracias.

This was one of my most favorite stays! My friends and I had a great time in Tamarindo and the Airbnb was just the icing on the cake! Very clean and spacious house. The back yard was amazing and we definitely enjoyed the pool with the great weather we had. The sliding glass doors were very nice to have an inside outside feel! Olga was very nice and responsive. She helped up plan basically our whole trip from getting us a ride to and from the airport to getting us an ATV tour as well! I highly recommend this stay, it’s not to close or to far from the chaos of the city which was perfect for us! I will definitely be back, thank you!

Hi Perrie. Thank you! Pura vida! Olga

Olga and Stefano were excellent, the guide they leave in the house is excellent. We will definitely come back!

Olga y Stefano se comportaron excelente, la guía que dejan en la casa es excelente. Volveremos sin duda alguna!

The place is beautiful, just as described in the photos. The pool was excellent. Friendly and always responsive hosts.

El lugar es precioso, tal cual lo describen las  fotos. La piscina estuvo excelente. Los anfitriones amables y siempre atentos.

Stefano and his entire team were fantastic to work with — always responsive, accommodating, and easy to communicate with from the moment we booked. They made the whole process simple and straightforward, ensuring we felt supported throughout our stay. The house was exactly as advertised and matched the photos perfectly, which was a huge relief and made us feel instantly comfortable upon arrival. Overall, a great experience.

Absolutely beautiful villa. It is as advertised and close to the heart of the city. I would recommend it to anyone!

We loved everything about this Airbnb and it was perfect for a quick trip for our family. We had a fun filled day at the pool and were able to make some quick trips into town for food and to go to the beach. They helped us arrange airport pickups and golf carts… everything was perfect from beginning to end!!

My experience at this place was 10/10. The place was spotless, comfortable and exactly as shown in the photos (or better!). The communication with the host was quick, friendly, and always willing to help. The location is excellent and everything worked perfectly during my stay. I would definitely come back and recommend it 100%.

Mi experiencia en este hospedaje fue 10/10. El lugar estaba impecable, cómodo y exactamente como en las fotos (o mejor!). La comunicación con el anfitrión fue rápida, amable y siempre dispuesto a ayudar. La ubicación es excelente y todo funcionó perfectamente durante mi estadía. Definitivamente volvería y lo recomiendo al 100%.

My second time attending this accommodation and it doesn’t cease to amaze. Hosts are great and easy to deal with. Great bang for your buck. The cleaning staff were amazing aswell. All around excellent experience can’t wait to return.

location is a little hard, its up a little hill we came a group of 6 in a van and probably half of mile is dirt on the little hill. other than that I loved the big mirror on the living room, not much to do in Tamarindo 90% of things close early. As fsr as the pool it was perfect but I think a social bathroom by the pool will be nice, instead of walking wet inside the house. It's a plus that every room has a bathroom. The house overall was spotless clean, we came around 130 or 2pm and met the concierge (can't remember his name) but he was very nice polite and friendly. In the kitchen there is everything you can possibly need, a/c is a plus because it's hot and it worked well. Having that said I will book the house again.

Hi Alba! Thank you so much for your review. Tamarindo is a charming rural area on Costa Rica’s North Pacific Coast, where it’s still common to find some unpaved roads throughout town. The house is located up a small 25-meter hill, which is very typical in the area:  even many beachfront homes have gravel roads. It’s all part of the authentic coastal experience that makes Tamarindo so special.

We loved the House!!! It’s just like the pictures. The open space to the pool area is great, spacious bedrooms, very quiet and peaceful and it has 2 locked gates so it feels very secure. The wifi works great, kitchen is well equipped and linens are nice. There are 2 mirrored houses that if you have a large group you can rent both and stay connected. I think is a great choice. But what I loved the most was my communication with Olga, she Rocks!! Always responsive and very nice and polite. We will definitely stay again. Thank you Olga and Stefano for a Great Weekend!!!

Excellent location and the house is too beautiful 10/10 👌🏾

Excelente ubicación y demasiado hermosa la casa 10/10 👌🏾

Truly a hidden gem. My friends and I loved this place. It’s beautiful and peaceful and very cool. The host is very thoughtful and helpful. I would repeat!

The house is very high luxury. I thought the price to value was very high. Would definitely bring a larger group

Very good house and very comfortable, everything works 100%

Muy buena casa y muy cómoda, todo sirve al 100%

We had a great experience staying in this beautiful house.

Everything you expect. Great home, great host. Very clean, nice pool. Excellent communication. Only the surf teacher that was recomended wasn’t that good but that’s not on the host in my opinion.

Thank you so much for your kind words: we’re really happy you enjoyed the house, the pool, and the overall experience! Regarding the surf lesson, I truly appreciate your honest feedback. I spoke with the instructor and shared your comments with him. He was sorry to hear it didn’t fully meet your expectations. The swell was particularly strong during those days, which might have made conditions more challenging than usual. He also mentioned he tried to make your stay even more enjoyable by sharing local tips and inviting you out to a concert. We hope this didn’t take away from your overall experience, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Perfect stay and very nice house. A little more garden furniture would be nice.

Séjour parfait et maison très agréable. Un peu plus de mobilier de jardin serait appréciable.

We enjoyed our stay! The bnb is as pictured. There were just small things but small things can add up. Overall great location! Olga and Stefano were very responsive and helped out right away with issues.

The place if it is comfortable more however I think it is lacking better in the beds specifically mattress and I and 2 more friends would come full of hives like having mites on the bed or something that every day we were chopped by that the truth I prefer not to go back there!

La verdad el lugar si está cómodo más sin embargo creo que le falta mejor en las camas específicamente colchón y yo y 2 amigos más veníamos llenos de ronchas como que tiene ácaros la cama o algo que cada día amanecíamos  más picados por eso la verdad prefiero no volver ahí!

Gracias por compartir su retroalimentación! Lamentamos sinceramente que tu experiencia no haya sido la que esperaba. Nos hubiera encantado saber sobre cualquier inconveniente durante su estadía para que nuestro equipo de mantenimiento pudiera actuar de inmediato y resolverlo. La casa esta ubicada en una zona rural, un entorno natural donde, ocasionalmente, pueden aparecer insectos, especialmente si se pasa tiempo en el jardín o en la playa. Siempre recomendamos a nuestros huéspedes tomar precauciones básicas, como el uso de repelente, para mayor comodidad. Su satisfacción es muy importante para nosotros, y nos entristece no haber tenido la oportunidad de mejorar su estancia en el momento.

The house is really comfortable and nice to be. The social area is very well built as well as the location of the rooms. It's very well-equipped and everything works very well. The ease to enter we loved it, the excellent service! We will be back!

La casa es realmente cómoda y agradable para estar. El área social está muy bien construida al igual que la ubicación de los cuartos. Está muy bien equipada y todo funciona muy bien. La facilidad para ingresar nos encantó, la atención excelente! Volveremos

We loved staying at this Airbnb!! The place was very clean and nice, with an amazing pool. The beds were very comfortable and showers had really hot water. Olga provided so many incredible recommendations (ATV tour, private cooking class) and was incredibly helpful and responsive!! For us, it took about 20 minutes to walk to the beach (but very doable and safe). Would recommend a golf cart if you’re trying to avoid walking up a big hill. You’ll have an amazing time if you stay here!!!

Stefano was a great host. Definitely recommend his place.

The house is very beautiful and spacious…. However, I had a horrible and painful experience... something in the pool, I don't know if it was a chemical or a plant, caused me a terribly painful skin allergy that ruined my stay... when I told the Host, he simply didn't care and downplayed my situation!!!  It's been a week and the skin is still healing. The host simply said she would ask maintenance to check the pool area

La casas es muy bella y espaciosa…. Sin embargo viví una horrible y dolorosa experiencia … algo en la piscina no se si un químico o planta me causo una alergia en la piel terriblemente dolorosa arruinado mi estadía… al comunicárselo a él Host simplemente no le importo y minimizo mi situación!!!  A pasado una semana y aún está sanando la piel. La host simplemente dijo que le pediría al de mantenimiento que revise los alrededores de la piscina

Lamentamos sinceramente que hayas experimentado una reacción alérgica durante tu estancia. Su bienestar es nuestra prioridad, y por ello, tan pronto como nos informo del incidente, nuestro equipo de mantenimiento realizó una inspección exhaustiva en el área. Tras la revisión, no encontramos ningún agente externo que pudiera causar dicha reacción, ya que el jardín cuenta únicamente con cactus y zacate natural, elementos que no suelen generar alergias o por lo menos nunca le ha provocado una alergia a ningun cliente. Nuestras instalaciones cumplen con todos los protocolos de limpieza y mantenimiento, y hasta la fecha, ningún otro huésped había reportado una situación similar. Sin embargo, entendemos que cada persona puede tener sensibilidades distintas, y por eso, en el momento te ofrecimos información sobre servicios médicos en el libro de instrucciones de la casa habian varios telefonos locales por si consideraba necesario atenderse. Agradecemos su feedback, pues nos permite seguir brindando un servicio de excelencia.

This modernistic styled home was beautiful with its large glass windows and sliding doors.

Great place to stay, near the center of tamarindo and the beach

Beautiful home. The house was in a great location. Walking distance to downtown and beach. Clean with lots of amenities. The host helped us get a golf cart which was super fun. Would stay again

This place was incredible, super clean, modern, and had a really luxurious feel. The hosts were amazing, always responsive and making sure everything was perfect. Their customer service was top-notch. I’d definitely recommend it 100%!

Excellent accommodation. Impeccable. Comfortable and nicely located

Excelente alojamiento. Impecable. Cómodo y muy bien ubicado

Great space poorly managed The house has good spaces, furniture in the living room is nice as the rooms are nice, kitchen is well stocked. The concept of the house is nice. But not well maintained the mattresses were horrible in all beds. Never slept in more squeaky beds (not trying to offend). Bathroom rugs were old and ragged. Everything inside kitchen cabinets needed a wash before using. Cleanliness has 0 stars, the upstairs bathroom shower had a tangled bunch of hair thrown at the mini side patio. One of the downstairs bedroom had a spill of something sticky with hairs on it between the side table and the back of the bed. Bathroom in the bottom downstairs bedroom, the shampoos were empty. The kitchen stove kept failing, forcing outings that weren’t planned. All of those things were pointed out to the owner that came to show us how to use the stove, it also took him a minute by the way, and he didn’t seem to bother by the lack of detail. Not a 2000+ US dollars experience or place.

Gracias por tu retroalimentación. Lamentamos mucho que no nos hayan informado sobre los temas de limpieza durante su estadía, ya que hubiéramos enviado a alguien de inmediato para solucionarlo. Respecto a la cocina, fuimos a revisar y resultó que estaba bloqueada porque no supieron cómo usar la cocina de inducción. Les enviamos un video explicativo, pero insistieron en que no funcionaba, cuando en realidad era un tema de manejo, era solo de apretar un botón para desbloqueo como se indicaba en el video. Además, su mamá tuvo un tono bastante despectivo de la casa empezó a decir que las cosas eran de X tienda como si le afectara a ella si se compra en la tienda X o Y, ya que en ningún momento durante su estadía, ni por teléfono ni en persona, nos hicieron saber estas quejas. También aclaramos que el monto que mencionan ($2000) no es el que recibimos, ya que Airbnb incluye cargos adicionales en su tarifa. Es una pena que no hayan compartido estos comentarios directamente con nosotros durante su estancia, ya que hubiéramos hecho todo lo posible para resolver cualquier inconveniente. Agradecemos su honestidad y tomaremos en cuenta sus observaciones para mejorar.

Stefano’s place was a perfect private villa in the craziness of Tamarindo. It is not a far walk to restaurants, shopping, & the beach which is what our group did but there is a pretty good hill so beware of that. We did surfing lessons while staying in Tamarindo which was a lot of fun! Stefano’s place was perfect to come back and relax around the pool after a busy day at the ocean.

A wonderful place with great communication and flexibility. We were offered everything we needed, including a 220V charger for our electric car, which was very convenient. We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for comfort and attention to detail.

Un lugar maravilloso con excelente comunicación y flexibilidad. Nos ofrecieron todo lo que necesitábamos, incluyendo un cargador de 220V para nuestro auto eléctrico, lo cual fue muy conveniente. Definitivamente lo recomendaríamos a cualquiera que busque comodidad y atención a los detalles.

The town is chaos and filled with excitement , but the home was a quiet retreat high recommend for a family to stay, it was perfect

Wonderful place! Very close to town, and Olga is so amazing and prepared to help you plan to perfect trip. We loved this space so much!

The facilities of the place are incredible, it has a really beautiful design and its pool is spacious and comfortable. However, we ran into several things that were not to our liking: The beds are unbearably sonic, that is, you can't turn without the tables, we found underwear from previous guests and the only response we received was "the cleaning lady surely forgot to pick it up", it was totally unpleasant. Chek-out is absurdly early (10am). We were broke by the internet, however, they did come to resolve it. The place has parking but it is not closed, we were concerned about the safety of our vehicles (which were motorcycles) but no events occurred. When we left the place, we had trouble entering the access code, but we finally managed to get in. I suggest having some other type of amenities like games, or pisicina implements The house is very beautiful and spacious, but I wouldn't come back. Clothing was totally unpleasant

Las instalaciones del lugar son increibles, tiene un diseño realmente bello y su piscina es amplia y cómoda. No obstante nos topamos con varias cosas que no fueron de nuestro agrado: Las camas son insoportablemente sonoras, es decir no puedes dar vuelta sin que truenen las tablas, encontramos ropa interior de anteriores huespedes y la única respuesta que recibimos fue "la señora de limpieza seguro olvidó recogerlo", fue totalmente desagradable. El chek-out es absurdamente temprano (10am). Nos falló el internet, sin embargo, sí llegaron a resolverlo. El lugar cuenta con parqueo pero no es cerrado, nos preocupó la seguridad de nuestros vehículos (que eran motocicletas) pero no ocurrió ningún tipo de evento. Cuando salimos del lugar, teníamos problemas para ingresar el código de acceso, pero finalmente logramos entrar. Les sugiero tener algún otro tipo de amenidades como juegos, o implementos de pisicina La casa es muy bella y amplia, pero no volvería. Fue totalmente desagradable la ropa

Hola Susana! Gracias por su retroalimentación. Nos gustaría aclarar algunos puntos importantes respecto a su estadía. En primer lugar, el inconveniente con la gaveta fue un error por parte del personal de limpieza, quien olvidó abrirla antes de su llegada. Sin embargo, todas las prendas estaban limpias, y la casa contaba con 3 habitaciones y armarios equipadas con closets y gavetas disponibles para su uso. Lamentamos si esto causó algún inconveniente, pero creemos que 1 sola gaveta de toda la casa no impactó significativamente la experiencia. Respecto al horario de check-out, en nuestro listing se especifica claramente que la salida es a las 10:00 a. m. y la entrada a las 3:00 p. m. Desde el momento en que hizo la reserva se le envio esta informacion que se especifica en el listing antes de que reservara. Usted aceptó estos términos al realizar la reserva. Además, debido a que teníamos una entrada programada ese mismo día, fue indispensable realizar la limpieza inmediatamente después de su salida. Se le explicó esta situación, y entendemos que el disgusto podría provenir de no poder ofrecerle una salida más tarde dado que ud afirmo que le pareceia que debiamos permitirle una salida mas tarde por el incoveniente de 1 gaveta. En cuanto al Internet, entendemos que puede ser frustrante cuando hay interrupciones. Sin embargo, esto fue un problema general de la zona y no específico de la propiedad. Afortunadamente, el servicio fue restablecido rápidamente gracias a la respuesta eficiente de la compañía. Nos gustaría recordarle que la casa se encuentra en una zona rural de Guanacaste, donde las condiciones del servicio pueden diferir de las de la Gran Área Metropolitana. Apreciamos sus comentarios y siempre estamos dispuestos a mejorar para ofrecer la mejor experiencia a nuestros huéspedes.

Location is great. We initially thought it might be too far but it’s not bad. Walkable or driving to town is not an issue. We like the style of house. The pool is fantastic. Host is very friendly and responsive.

Great place to stay with family or friends. Very clean and spacious. The pool is perfect. I would certainly stay at the place again!

Gran lugar para hospedarse con familia o amigos. Muy limpio y espacioso. La piscina es perfecta. Sin duda volvería a hospedarme en el lugar!

Casa Shibui was an awesome place to stay near the downtown but just far enough away to feel the peace and quite. The house and pool were perfect for my family.

Responsive host, clear instruction and easy to get into this beautiful place! Love the private pool and home space :)

Stefano was friendly and very responsive to any questions we had, pool was well kept and cleaned daily. Security was good and all within walking distance to downtown tamarindo

great place to stay. would definately stay again if i came back

Excellent and beautiful house with privacy and everything you are looking for

Excelente y bella casa con privacidad y todo lo que buscas

The place is great! A little bigger than needed for 3 people, but we did like having separate bathrooms for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked with a variety of cooking and dining utensils. Bathrooms had plenty of towels, including beach towels for the pool. The house is on a pretty steep hill, so walking was doable just not the easiest. There are two villas on the property, but they're well designed and we couldn't hear them at all even. Overall, a great property.

We had a great stay! The place was clean and the pool was so fun!

Great location. Close to the action and in a quiet area

had a lovely time at casa shi bui. we traveled with an 18 month old, which is a lot in itself, but the place was excellent to keep an eye on him while enjoying the pool and living room. had everything we needed. easy walk to the downtown, the hill was easily traversed by the grandparents and us with our little man. loved our time in tamarindo and wish we could have had more days!

Excellent stay. It was really really nice. The villa is stunning and well located. Olga is so helpful, it was wonderful I can’t recommend it enough🤩

We had a perfect stay. The villa lived up to our expectations and the communication with Olga was superb. Hyper available and always responsive. Feel free to rent this villa!

Nous avons eu un sejour parfait. La villa était à la hauteur de nos attentes et les communications avec Olga étaient superbes. Hyper disponible et toujours reactive. N’hesitez pas à louer cette villa !

Great location, very clean, and great communication! Would stay here again.

Had a great time staying here with friends for a week!

Great place great location. Spacious and beautiful home.

Close to the beach. Will need to rent a golf cart. It’s impossible to walk.

Thank you for your feedback! While there is a small hill leading to the house, many guests find it walkable and enjoy the short stroll. However, we understand that everyone’s preferences are different, and we’re glad you made the most of your stay by renting a golf cart. We hope to welcome you back soon!

We had a wonderful stay here - property was perfect for our family.  Well equipped, great location with a  beautiful pool.  Really conducive to a relaxing few days.  Great advice on what to do and recommendations for restaurants. Many thanks Justin and Helen

Great place to stay. Olga was so helpful arranging transportation to and from the airport as well as golf cart rental while we were in town. The house had everything we needed including a washer and dryer.

Beautiful home with everything you could need. So close to restaurants and the beach. Would definitely stay here again.

The living area and each of the bedrooms were very spacious. Perfect distance from the main downtown attractions although a bit of a hill so an atv/Utv may be recommended. We had no problem finding the place and if we had any questions Olga and Stefano were very responsive.

We were a group of 6 (3 couples). Everyone was super happy with their rooms which were clean and well-proportioned. All the ACs worked well. We enjoyed the open-plan kitchen for cooking and socialising. On our first day, there was a leak in the kitchen due to the rain storm the night before but within 5 minutes of communicating this to our host, someone was around to fix it. Excellent service. The drive up to the house is a little difficult. It is a single track with potholes plus with the rain was muddy. We had one 4x4 and one 2-wheel drive, and both cars managed. We choose to drive into town most days instead of walking. It would have taken maybe 15/20mins if we didn't but we didn't want to carry all our beach stuff there and back.  Overall an absolutely wonderful host and home.

Great place! Pool is awesome. Walking distance from the beach. Really comfortable beds. Fully furnished kitchen

Overall loved this house. The pool and the house was great!

Hi. If you’re reading this, BOOK THIS CRIB. ITS TOO FIRE 🔥🔥. The pictures don’t do it any justice. The views are amazing from poolside, also from the second floor balcony. You literally see the mountains from the second floor. Olga and Steph were great. They were very helpful and quick to respond. Please be mindful if you plan to go during the American Summer months, it will consistently rain. However if you are a nature lover , you will cherish the views of the beautiful Mother Earth 🌎. Everything is in walking distance from the house. The house is on a hill so bring ur walking shoes, but the views are amazing so it will take your mind off the incline/decline. Please feel safe and confident in Olga’s suggestions. She will get you good deals on excursions and grocery’s. Pure Vida, Gone 🤙🏾

Great place! We had a few issues but Stefano and Olga were there to help as soon as possible. Area is nice and close to town!

Great place to stay if you’re looking to relax away from the center of town while still being minutes away .

This place was absolutely amazing and exactly what we all needed to end our trip to Costa Rica. Olga was amazing and helped us with so much (adding an additional night, booking a boat trip, booking massages at the house). We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. If you have the chance to do the in home massages, DO IT. Thank you so much Olga! Only bit of advice is turn on the A/C units, close bedroom blinds and go into town as early as you can as it was VERY hot in the house.

Very nice place. Pictures were very accurate. Whenever we had a question the host responded promptly. Love the place.

Place was great and exactly like the pics. We did need to communicate with Stefano about a couple things during our stay, and everything was addressed promptly.

We had an amazing stay at Stefano's. The airbnb is perfectly located, close to town but quiet at night. The concierge, Olga made our trip go incredibly smoothly. She helped organize a boat day, ATV/zipline tour, groceries to our Airbnb prior to arrival, chef and cocktail making class. We loved all of our activities especially the cocktail making class with Mauricio. We highly recommend him if you are in Tamarindo! It is fun and you plently to drink, it is Agua Dulce bartending. We cant wait to come back and stay here! Stefano was also very responsive during our stay and helped with anything we needed.

Great home, walking distance to town. Stefano went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. Gas powered golf cart is required due to a large hill the home is located on - most places in town won’t rent to you because of this. It would have been very helpful to have known this in advance. Book a golf cart in advance with Stefano if you want to avoid this situation.

Hello The host was very proactive and sent clear instructions. The listing is located in a more diverse environment, new constructions, homes in need of maintenance and in a more mountainside location where cart rental is not allowed due to its location. The accommodation is located 15 minutes walk from the main of Tamarindo. The space needs maintenance; the walls are stained, the plumbing fixtures are damaged and need to be heavily washed with cleaning product. The outdoor shower is partially functional and will need maintenance as well. The pool is beautiful, a pool exposed to the sun for most of the day. The space is interesting for a large family with 3 full bathrooms, but we were disappointed with the cleaning as soon as we arrived with dirty towels still on the floor, uncleaned showers and a non-functional safe code.

Bonjour L’hôte a été très proactif et avait fait parvenir des instructions claires. Le logement est situé dans un environnement plus hétéroclite, de nouvelles constructions, des logements en besoin d’entretien et dans un emplacement plus à flanc de montagne ou la location de cart n’est pas permise du à son emplacement. Le logement est situé à 15 minutes à pied de la principale de Tamarindo. Le logement a besoin d’entretien; les murs sont tachées, les robinetterie de plomberie sont abîmées et ont besoin d’être fortement lavées avec produit nettoyant. La douche extérieure est partiellement fonctionnelle et aura besoin d’un entretien également. La piscine est magnifique, un bassin exposé au soleil la grande partie de la journée. La superficie du logement est intéressante pour une large famille avec 3 salles de bains complète, mais nous avons été déçu du ménage dès notre arrivée avec des serviettes sales encore au sol, des douches non nettoyées et un code du safe non fonctionnel.

Hi Samuel! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve our accommodations for future guests. We're glad to hear that you found our communication proactive and our location appealing. However, we're truly sorry to hear about the maintenance and cleanliness issues you encountered during your stay. This falls short of the high standards we aim to provide for all our guests. We were never told that there was a cleaning issue if not we would have sent the cleaning team immediately. Also, the water in CR is drinkable however this rural area of the country the water contains a high mineral content, primarily calcium and magnesium, which can leave some stains on surfaces like walls, and showers. Regarding the golf cart what you said is not true since we have had clients renting golf carts many times. I work as a concierge and I know the places that a golf cart company WONT rent which is just a couple of them and this is not the case. If you had communicated your concerns to us, we could have addressed them immediately. Regrettably, you did not reach out to us while you were at the villa.

Great unit and Stefano was super responsive!

Olga the host made our stay better than anticipated. She was prompt responding to questions and addressing anything we needed it. She set up all the activities and even can get you food before your arriving. Nice modern house with perfect size pool. Rent a car or golf carts to go to town. Steep hill and road is not paved. Thanks

Absolutely stunning place exactly as described. Both Stefano and Olga were extremely nice and helpful and couldn’t have asked for more!!

My stay at Stefano’s place was amazing! The place looks just as the pictures. I love the layout, and the modern feel. Especially the floor to ceiling windows/doors everywhere! Olga, the co-host was absolutely incredible! She made my stay a trip to remember. She was so accomodating, and helped me get my itinerary for the entire trip. This was a last min trip, and I could not have had the experience I had without Olga’s help. She really made the difference! I highly recommend that you open up the multiple doors in the rooms to let some air in. It can get really hot. There is AC, but I found opening the doors, and of course enjoying the pool was the best way to stay cool. There is construction going on in the area, and the road to the Airbnb is not smooth. I had a car, so it wasn’t a big issue. It’s a safe area, and very quiet. I would love to stay here again and bring some friends with me to enjoy the stay. I can really envision some great memories being had here. Thank you!

Stefano’s place was incredible and was the perfect home base for a magical trip. One thing to note, it is up a dirt road that is walkable into town and the beach but highly recommend renting a golf cart as it will make the time much more enjoyable. All and all I’d come back to Stefano’s place in a heart beat and really enjoyed the experience.

We loved the house and private pool.  The home had everything we needed.  Easy walk to town. Stephan and the Concierge Olga were fantastic.   We had a late flight, she was able to stock us with groceries and also got a catering company to leave us some dinner.  She helped us arrange trips, rental car, and ride to airport.   We’d choose this again         Thank you both.

My friends and I stayed here for 5 days and had a fantastic experience. Responsive host, great value, amazing property, and the pool was fantastic.

Absolutely one of the nicest places I’ve stayed and I’ve been coming to Costa Rica for 10 years

Stefano’s place was absolutely beautiful, we loved everything about it. The pool was lovely as well as the layout of the home. Thankfully we kept our car because the roads aren’t done around the area but that’s not the hosts fault by any means. Olga was amazing as well! Very responsive and had tons of food and excursion recommendations. 10/10 I will definitely book again!

The house is very comfortable. Worth the price.  The suggestions we have are that it does not currently have a closed parking lot, while we were in the house, some people came to clean the pool and make the garden while we were there. It would be nice to let people know that the house is occupied as privacy is lost.

La casa es muycómoda. Vale el precio.  Las sugerencias que tenemos son que actualmente no cuenta con  parqueo cerrado, mientras estuvimos en la casa llegaron unas personas a limpiar la piscina y a hacer el jardín mientras nosotros estábamos ahí. Sería bueno que les informen a las personas que la casa está ocupada ya que se pierde la privacidad.
