About the host
Hosted by Russ Gibson, Duncan Calhoun
We've lived in Upstate New York for more than 20 years. We have owned a top-rated Bed and Breakfast and boutique hotel. As travelers ourselves we know what is important for us when booking a vacation and have instilled that into all aspects of booking a stay at Villa Encantada. We love the local experience. We love discovering the local culture. Most importantly, as hosts, we love seeing how those unfamiliar with Costa Rica immediately fall in love with the Pura Vida lifestyle. It hooked us. It'll hook you too!
Why they chose this property
Having visited a few areas in Costa Rica both on the Caribbean and Pacific coasts we were amazed each time at the friendliness and welcoming nature of the Tico's (how people from Costa Rica refer to themselves). The Tamarindo/Playa Langosta has it all - fun shopping, top-notch restaurants, energetic nightlife and - most importantly - phenomenal beaches yet still holding on to it the charm that captivates visitors to Costa Rica: no Starbucks, McDonalds or shopping mall for miles.
The beach, Playa Langosta, is just across the street from the Villa. The calm and tranquility of the area was perfect (being able to hear the ocean from the Villa was a major selling point).l Being so close to the "action" in Tamarindo gave us the best of both worlds.
And Costa Rica is so EASY to get to from almost everywhere. The Liberia International Airport (LIR) was opened in 2012 and almost all U.S. airlines fly direct from their major hubs. Great weather. Friendly people. Easy to get to. Fantastic food. Easy on the wallet. Lots to do. Costa Rica has it all, and Playa Langosta was the ideal location.

What makes this property unique
There are SO many amazing places to rent in the area. We know that. Why do we think Villa Encantada is a fantastic choice?
The location is exceptional; close enough to the activity in Tamarindo, but far enough away to enjoy the peace of Playa Langosta. The Villa has almost all of the amenities guests enjoy at home and expect on vacation. Your own private pool (no sharing with others); private bedrooms (no other guests making noise at all hours). Eat what you want. Drink what you want, listen to the music you want - and it's all included! Most importantly, we think, is our service. From the moment you book to the moment you check, our goal is to ensure you have the most amazing vacation. We pride ourselves on responding to all of our guests' questions quickly. Our property management team speedily responds to any unforeseen issues. We are available to our guests 24/7. Location. Amenities. Privacy. Service.
