Excellent, 3 years ago

What an amazing location! We loved the spot, the outdoor kitchen was so cute. Super close to the beach and so close to many fun spots to eat and have drinks. We would stay here again for sure!

We absolutely loved Casa Smiling Dog. The location is excellent! Very close to everything, right across the street from the beach. The rental unit itself was also excellent! Super clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook. AC unit worked perfectly and the shower was great. Some other positives were the bed, and the beautiful garden view. Andy and Rowena are wonderful hosts and it was a real pleasure to meet them. Will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family!

Bill, thanks so much for your wonderful review. Thanks also for choosing to stay with us. You and Olivia were great guests and great fun. Your life stories were fantastic. Have a wonderful time in the East and a wonderful life! We hope we'll see you again, one day. Pura Vida from Ro and Andy.

Andy's place was awesome, it was very clean and spacious. The bathroom was quite big with a huge space in the shower. His place also has a front porch, though we didn't use it much because it was really hot out, but I would imagine it would be nice place to relax when it is not so hot. This place is very close to the beach and all the nearby shops yet very quiet and private. Andy gave us great recommendations about where to eat. I highly recommend his place.

Thanks so much for your review Syed - really glad you enjoyed staying with us and liked Tamarindo. It was great having you both stay with us. Should you come back to Tamarindo we'd be really happy to host you again! Have great travels!!

Book it! This place is located on the quiet side of town, which was perfect for us. We were across the street from the beach. And a short walk from the grocery store. There are many restaurants and bars just a two min walk away. We were able to see monkeys from the porch which was super cool. I would recommend to friends and family. Thanks again!

Hey guys thanks so much. It was a real pleasure to have you stay with us. If you are back in Tamarindo come and see us. Ro says to tell you that the photos of the "old road" are up on her FB page now if you want to see them (Cows included) - Rowena Whiteman will find her! Have a great life and excellent travels!!

Andy and Rowena are great hosts. Communication was very clear and they were very friendly and helpful. Their house is very close to the beach and some great restaurants. The room itself is clean and spacious and the bed is very comfortable. The outside kitchen/garden area was so peaceful and relaxing and it was nice to have that space away from the hustle and bustle of Tamarindo. We would definitely stay here again.

So nice to have you guys stay with us as part of your honeymoon! We really appreciate your positive feedback about our place. May you a long and happy life and great travels. We'd be delighted to have you stay again. Pura Vida from Ro and Andy.

Andy’s place is in an awesome location; walking distance to the main places in Tamarindo, yet away from all the noise for a quiet rest. The bed was comfy and the restroom was huge and nicely furnished. It felt like staying in a hotel room, but with a nice outdoor patio, kitchen and hammock :)

So glad you like our place. It was great to have you stay. We particularly appreciate your feedback about our apartments as this is what we have been aiming to achieve over the last several years. All the best to you both. Safe and happy travels & life! Pura Vida.

The place is everything you need; a fee steps from the beach,2 supermarkets less than a block away, town is 5 mins away and the hosts are great people. The kitchen is fully equipped and the room is very very clean. The bathroom is very well maintained as well. I'd definitely recommend this place and I'm looking forward to be back in Tamarindo and hopefully (of there's vacancy) staying in Smiling Dog again. It really is nice and close to everything. Thanks Andy & Rowena!
