Family Fun

A perfect location for a family vacation! We were a family if 9 adults and 9 children ages 3 to 13. We all loved the beach enjoying the shell hunting and playing in the waves. The sunsets were spectacular! The pool is large with plenty of room to play. We had breakfast and dinner prepared by Alcira and team. The food was great and so graciously prepared.

Quiet Spot on the Beach

Nice quiet area close to Tamarindo via water taxi. The house is large and well spaced out for a large group. Some small repairs and paint is needed in some rooms as well as some new sheets for beds. Blankets would have been nice as several of us got cold at night but we just learned to adjust the AC when we went to bed. Owner provides hand soap at sinks and a bar soap for showers so bring shampoo and conditioner. There is no iron or hairdryers. Stand alone fans would have been nice in the common areas as it does get hot inside. There is a TV that our teens used to hookup their video games. Onsite staff is wonderful and very accomodating. Brought us clean towels, washed our laundry for a small fee and were even willing to go grocery shopping for us. Cook was amazing. We had breakfast every morning, a few dinners and she even cooked the fish we caught while sports fishing. Owner was very responsive when we had questions. There are 4 restaurant/bars in Playa Grande that are 15-20min walking distance from house. All were great. In addition, there were also inexpensive surf lessons and yoga classes in this same area. Ask about them at the hostel. A 40min walk along the beach will take you to the heart of Playa Grande where there's more bars/restaurants and breweries. Do take advantage of the shuttle/tour company the owner recommends. We used them a lot and the vans, drivers, and tours were all fantastic -always arriving on time with a cooler full of beer, water and other drinks.

An Amazing Week At The Beach

We spent a week here with our family and one other, a total of ten people (six kids) but the property could easily have accommodated double. Here are the pros and cons you should know: Pros: Great location right on a basically private beach that’s walking distance to Tamarindo The team is extraordinary and so responsive and will take care of all your needs. We signed up for full-day chef and kitchen services with Alcira which I highly recommend When we had issues they were resolved quickly Playa grande is a quaint little town with some sweet restaurants and shops Cons: Common areas don’t have AC in this house which essentially rendered them unusable for us The fridge was broken the first two days and while it was replaced this was not fun The water was turned off on the last day for 3 hours — apparently this is something that happens but it caught us off guard The pool is in front of the house and somewhat separate from the common areas and had a beehive in the portico which made it tough for us to use There are raccoons at night so it was challenging for our kids to get upstairs to their rooms since the staircase is on the outside of the house Getting to playa grande shops is a 15 min drive and to Tamarindo is 45 min (even though it’s a 10 min walk). Despite the cons, the house and staff are lovely and the beach is stellar. If they put AC in the common areas that alone would have made it a 5 star house despite the other challenges we had.

Wonderful paradise

We have stayed in Palm beach for years we love that neighborhood. This home was everything we needed. It fit 3 families perfectly and private for everyone. The pool and outdoor area is perfect. The pool is huge and the landscape around it is gorgeous. The nice big table outdoors was perfect for big gatherings. We had a chef come and cook for us all and it was perfect. The whole compound would be fun to rent with all our friends. We will be back.

Amazing location on fantastic beach

We brought 28 people to stay for fun and play and boy did this property not disappoint! We rented out both parts of the property- double the fun. The property was well kept, communication on WhatsApp with house manager and staff was seamless. The beach is private with little traffic, the softest sand and great waves to catch. The pools were fantastic and the houses and bungalows were perfect for our guests. Would stay at this location again.
