Karina

Outstanding luxury home with a great host. We would definitely stay there again.

WOW! Morabeza was incredible! Karina, the host was amazing. She checked in throughout the week making sure we had everything we needed. She was extremely helpful and thoughtful. The house staff were polite and worked so quickly and quietly we hardly saw them. The staff made us breakfast everyday - for sure something to add on! With so many adults and kids in the house it started off each day smoothly and without any stress. The staff brought the kids pool toys and they did our laundry! The property was beautiful with direct access to the beach. The house is perfect for big families. It's laid out in a way that gives everyone plenty to do as well as plenty of space to take a break from each other. It's proximity to the town is another plus. This once in a lifetime trip for our family went beyond all of our expectations!

I’ve been to Costa Rica several times and Karine’s place has been the best experience by far! Wonderful location! Jami is such an amazing chef for breakfast and such a joy to be around. The housekeeping is top notch! Karina was on top of everything we needed! We definitely recommend this home for a stay in Tamarindo. Having a golf cart the whole time was clutch too.

This place is absolutely the most beautiful place I’ve ever stayed at! The pictures don’t do it justice. It is conveniently located right outside of downtown Tamarindo and the beach. The views are out of this world! I can seriously go on and on about it!

We had a family reunion here and had an amazing stay. We would highly recommend this property! The location is great, private with easy access to everything we wanted (rent golf carts!) while still being within 5 minutes of anything. The home had a great layout with plenty of space, including separate rooms for parents and rooms for kids that allowed everyone to have their own privacy while still enjoying time together as a family. The bedrooms are clean, all similar layouts and have frigid AC. Having breakfast, dishes, cleaning and laundry done for us made us really feel like we could completely relax. The kitchen is incredibly well equipped, and staff is friendly and helpful. The main living area is larger than the pictures show you. As Americans, we were a little concerned the main living area does not have AC, but there are fans and the afternoon/evening breezes are really nice. We were totally comfortable. The pool was also a huge highlight. We loved our time here!

We had 15 in our party and stayed a week ending with a wedding!!!!!!! The place, the people, everything was amazing. We have stayed in a lot of places all over the world and everyone agreed best trip BY FAR!!!!

We had the most fabulous time at Karina’s place. There were 13 of us in our family ranging from age 8-70 and everyone had a great time with so much to do in Tamarindo. The place is beautiful. The setting is stunning. The staff was so attentive without being intrusive. Karina was one of the very best hosts we have had throughout many years of travel. I highly recommend this place. It is amazing.

This place made the trip. We went on my bachelor party with the intention of having activities (surfing, ATVs, catamaran, swimming, etc), along with enough of a town to have great dinners and some fun nightlife options nearby. It had everything and more, we had the best weekend I could have imagined. Highly highly recommend setting up golf carts for the time there, was a huge help for quickly buzzing around town. Way more to do around there than anticipated! Ten stars.

Casa Alang Alang was the highlight of the trip. An incredible gem of Tamarindo.

I had an absolutely incredible stay at Villa Morabeza in Tamarindo—truly a five-star experience from start to finish. The property itself is stunning, blending luxury with a relaxed, tropical vibe that immediately puts you at ease. Every detail felt thoughtfully designed, from the beautifully maintained spaces to the comfortable, stylish accommodations. The location couldn’t have been better—close to everything Tamarindo has to offer, yet still private and peaceful. Waking up to the sounds of nature and enjoying the warm breeze each morning was unforgettable. The amenities were top-notch, and everything was spotless and well cared for. Karina and the Villa staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, always friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. It felt less like a rental and more like a personalized retreat. If you’re looking for a place that combines comfort, beauty, and outstanding hospitality, Villa Morabeza is it!

We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed our stay at Villa Morabeza. Karina was an incredible host. From the moment we booked the property and throughout our stay, she was responsive, helpful, and full of local suggestions that made our trip special. The property itself is stunning, but the staff truly made the experience luxury. Having a delicious breakfast prepared for us each morning and returning to a spotless house (with our laundry done!) was such a treat. It allowed us to truly relax and focus on time with our family and friends (4 families with a total of 7 kids all under 8). The grounds are a paradise for kids and nature lovers alike. We were blown away by the wildlife right on the property. We saw a Northern Tamandua anteater, howler monkeys, parrots, and iguanas without even leaving the villa! Plus, the location is unbeatable. We loved being on the beach and able to walk to all the best restaurants and shops in Tamarindo.

We absolutely loved staying at Casa Alang Alang. It was the perfect place to celebrate our milestone birthdays with a large group of friends. The communication was also top notch. They were fantastic in helping us arrange airport transfers, chefs, golf cart rentals, and any excursions. No question was too small!

Wow! Best rental home my family has ever experienced. Karina and the entire staff were absolutely amazing. The house was clean, beautiful, and had every item you could ever imagine needing. Everyone went above and beyond to make it a memorable experience for us. Highly recommend!

Karina is an amazing host. She went above and beyond to take care of us. She accommodated our last minute requests. Will definitely be back soon

The house was amazing, beach access, amazing staff. Karina was super helpful leading up to the trip and throughout our stay. Highly recommend
