About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Entire villa in gated community, 2 Bd, 2 & 1/2 bath, pool, sandy beach.

I hope this is your base for all kinds of fun activities or R&R. This is our home away from home and I hope you view it as such. It's not a show home. Meant to be lived in. Lay on the couch after a fun day surfing or exploring.

This is a stand alone house, not a condo. No long hallways, no elevators. A fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, 2 bedroom, 2-1/2 bath. In Costa Rica. We call it a Villa and that includes your own private parking stall just a few steps away. If you don't feel like driving, no problem as everything is within walking distance and really is a better way to enjoy Tamarindo and the friendly locals. The incredible beach is just 850 meters away. Over half mile of adventure in the heart of town.

Important Update - we have installed a back-up water cistern. VERY important especially during high season. You still need to be conscious of water use.

Here are our house features...
Main Floor
•Fully equipped kitchen including coffee maker, blender, granite countertops, raised eating bar and a separate eating area with a table and four chairs
•Comfortably appointed living room, with a large sectional, entertainment system, flat screen TV with built in DVD and free wifi phone to make free calls to the USA
•Washer Dryer and sink in Laundry room
•Two piece bathroom on main
•Coat closet
•Expanded lanai by the entrance. Perfect for reading or watching the kids in the pool.

Upper Floor
•Master bedroom, with a queen bed, an en-suite with a tub / shower, independent AC, ceiling fan, and a balcony that overlooks the pool
•Second bedroom, with a queen bed and a double bed plus a twin bunk bed above the double bed sleeping up to 5, a full en-suite, independant AC, ceiling fan
The air conditioning system has independent controls for each floor as well as for each bedroom.
Furnishings, appliances, and other details are included.

We love having the pool right outside your door.

Beautiful Villa
We loved everything about this Villa. The grounds were absolutely beautiful and the pool just outside our door was definitely a bonus! The Villa was lovely and very well equipped with everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable, from plenty of towels, well equipped kitchen and we loved the robes! Kathy was very quick to get back for any questions we had before our trip. Once we were at Villa, Sonia and Jorge, property managers, were so very friendly and helpful, from arranging airport transportation to recommendations of restaurants and answering any questions we had. The location of this Villa is a definite bonus as we did not need a vehicle. Tamarindo town and beach were about 10 minutes with grocery store half way! Everything about this Villa and its location was a definite 5 Star. We loved Costa Rica! Pura Vida!

Tamarindo Christmas
Great property, loved location, property managers were always available and helpful. We rented a golf cart for ease of getting to beach and restaurants but very walkable which we also did several times. My only suggestion would be to upgrade the mattresses and pillows.

We were a party with three teenagers and two adults and fit comfortably at this property! Having coffee and breakfast at our unit, out on the patio, was lovely. The grounds and pool were maintained daily but quietly and without the buzz of early morning equipment. I don't think you will sleep in, as the birds and other animals like to sing! Before arriving, I stressed about not being "on the beach," but I found this location perfect: within walking distance of the beach and restaurants. We didn't find a restaurant we didn't love. The grocery stores have everything you need, and several choices exist. The unit is well stocked with kitchen necessities, beach items, towels, and even extras like robes! Having laundry was useful. Sonia is delightful and informative! I highly recommend this rental! We typically like to explore new locations, but a week wasn't enough in Costa Rica, and we will stay here again!

Fabulous villa for a family of 5!
We loved our vacation and where we stayed. Having the pool steps away made it so simple and relaxing. The showers, air conditioning, and laundry facilities kept us clean and comfortable. I loved being able to buy groceries and cook for my family, especially with my daughter’s keto diet. Jorge, the property manager, was friendly, prompt, intuitive, knowledgeable, and kind. He helped us arrange a couple of amazing excursions to horse ride and view nesting sea turtles. He suggested Guaitil as a cultural activity; my kids met Andy and learned about indigenous pottery making. The property is private and just enough east of downtown to be quiet without being too far to walk if you don’t have a car. We can’t say enough good things about our stay. We hope to come again soon!

Perfect stay in Tamarindo!
Casa Colorado was the perfect place to spend our week in Tamarindo. The house was well equipped. We loved having the pool right out the front door. A/C units worked great. Extra comfy beds. Felt very safe, and love that Jorge the property manger was onsite. 10/10 would stay again!!

Casa Colorado
The villa was beautiful and had everything we needed down to the cozy robes. We enjoyed coffee on the porch every morning and a refreshing afternoon dip in the pool. The villa is conveniently located near a grocery store with a wonderful selection of fresh veggies, fruits, and prepared foods. There are so many restaurants to choose from and they are all wonderful. The beach is amazing and the water is the perfect temperature. Sonia and Jorge are readily available to assist. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Perfect tropical getaway
This villa was perfect for us. Sitting on the deck in the morning, drinking coffee and overlooking a beautiful pool and hearing the birds sing just was a great start to each day. Everything we needed was in the house, it was well stocked and very clean. The property manager, Jorge, was extremely gracious and very knowledgeable of the area. It is a bit of a walk to the beach, about half mile or so on dirt roads, so be prepared & don’t wear new shoes! Other than that everything was perfect.
