Lawrence

This location is unmatched!! Your own private home with a beautiful pool, yet it is right on the beach. This house is away from all of the high volume touristy areas, yet close enough you can drive (or water taxi) to them if you are looking for that. We basically had our own private beach. We rented surf boards from the local surf shop and used them at our leisure. The surf is great for both beginners are experts. Make sure you have an SUV, as it is an unpaved road to get back to the house. The host is super responsive and will provide so many great recommendations. The best dinner of our entire week was the small local restaurant we walked on the beach to get to.

I have stayed at many AirBNB locations throughout the years and have never written a review. I wanted to now, because Larry, the owner of this house, and his amazing property, made for the vacation of a lifetime. The house was clean, spacious and had all the amenities a larger family would need. Larry greeted us upon arrival, showed us the property and from there we were settled in. We have been a "pool" on vacation family, but with this property, the beach is too close (less than 20 steps) and too warm and fun, to not be there. The sunsets were incredible and the location made us feel like we had the beach all to ourselves, with the busier city of Tamarindo less than a 10 minute walk/boat ride away. The restaurants in the area are fantastic with a variety of food options, markets with fresh fruit/veggies and a number of local coffee shops. The area (and gated community) made us feel safe and comfortable. And the monkeys in the yard was icing on the top. Best vacay ever!!!
