It was a great location with plenty of space for everyone. The view was amazing. We got to watch whales, thunderstorms and the waves roll in. Very relaxing.
One of the best beach residences we've ever had. The kitchen was incredible, the terraces and view stunning, and more room than our family of 5 could ever require.The Host, Jus, went above and beyond to help us and guide us throughout our stay...to have his concierge service was a highlight!
Great and spacious condo in Tamarindo with amazing views
This is a spacious condo in a great location right on the beach. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you might need. It was also super convenient having a washer/dryer on each floor. We had the pool to ourselves. Thereâs parking if you have a car. We even liked the outdoor property cat, which is probably the laziest cat weâve ever seen. We are a family with two adult children, their partners, and this place was perfect. Each room has its own bathroom so everyone had their own space. The walk into Tamarindo can be a bit long, especially if itâs hot so I recommend renting a golf cart and getting a car. The only snafu we had was the last night of our stay, there was a clicking noise coming from the ceiling that impacted our sleep and we couldnât figure out how to get it to stop. Great stay, though.Would recommend!
Absolutely amazing, exactly as pictured, but honestly, the photos do not do this beautiful property justice. Everything you could possibly want or need for our vacation. We appreciated having Justin available to answer any questions, book activities and provide initial grocery shopping service.
Incredible spot for a vacation. Amazing views and communication with host and employees was incredible. The double porches facing the ocean are unbelievable. The sunsets were top notch. Getting into town was easy. The entire complex was perfect. I hugely recommend this place.
We stayed as a family of 5. The place is immaculate, very clean, and huge. 10/10. Plenty of space to spread out. The view is absolutely stunning and the sunsets are breath taking. We loved eating meals on the large balcony. The place is fully equipped with everything you need. The beds are very comfortable. Easy communication with owner, and Justin, the local property manager, met us for checkin to show us everything and was available for questions and to help set up tours. The building is very secure and the security guards were all very friendly. Nice pool too. We would absolutely stay here again.
I have dreaded to write this review. I may not be of clear mind due to our visit to Tamarindo. This all started months ago when we booked the unit. The host provided tons of information about the unit and the local area. Could not have asked for more on the front end. The host was able to arrange for transportations to and from the airport, for groceries and drinks to be on hand for our arrival and a golf cart. I can not describe just how beautiful this place is and the pictures on line can not give you the sound of the waves and feel of the ocean breeze. If you are not happy with this unit you should probably not visit Tamarindo. We met with Justin on our arrival he showed us everything we needed to know about the unit and left us to enjoy the afternoon.The condo was stocked with everything we needed from laundry detergent to boogie boards to beach towels and chairs to cookware.We were able to arrange for two chef's to prepare meals for us at the unit and dined on the patio with the ocean view. No reservation, waiting or hurry. We did have two issues. First, being a group of six adults we used more ice than the ice maker could produce on a couple of occasions. A text to Justin and we had bags of ice with 15 minutes. Second, having to leave. No one wanted to leave. We all wanted to just stay. Since we could not stay we have already made plans for another visit to Crystal Sands.
The condo was perfect in every way for our family. Plenty of comfortable room for all of us. The view is breathtaking and the locarion is amazing. Walking distance to all the restaurant, shops and bars in Tamarindo. There is always something fun to do. Our hosts were fantastic! So helpful and so nice. Can't wair to xome back!
We were thrilled to be able to stay in Syd's penthouse unit with my family. There is a LOT of room for everyone and everything was clean, and comfy! Arranging the trip was easy to do, and communication was efficient. All of my family highly recommend the beautiful condo in the luxurious Crystal Sands!
I researched many properties before deciding and it met all of our needs for a family of 4 and more! It's safe -- security upon entering and departing, it's quiet -- an easy, interesting 10-15 minute walk into town where all the action is, and the penthouse itself is far better than the pictures can communicate. Everything was very clean, well-appointed and comfortable. We were able to do our own laundry when needed and cook our own meals when we decided to eat in. (My husband and son went deep sea fishing one day and came back with 4 large tuna so it was great to be able to prepare the fresh fish.) My boys enjoyed surfing most days while my husband and I loved walking along the beach. The top floor view of the ocean from the hot tub is breathtaking, and the sunset and clouds painted a new picture each evening. I personally appreciated hearing the ocean through the night; I truly felt more relaxed than I have in a long time. All services we used were excellent -- the transportation arrived early for our airport pick up and return. Our 8 day stay was more of a luxurious treat than I ever expected.:)
Our stay at this fantastic penthouse exceeded all expectations. The location is unbeatableâjust a short walk toTamarindo, allowing us easy access to all the shops, restaurants, and beaches while still enjoying the tranquility of the area.
The house itself is spacious and beautifully decorated, with all the modern amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The highlight of our visit was the breathtaking ocean views. Every morning, we enjoyed our coffee on the balcony, taking in the stunning scenery and listening to the sound of the waves. We spent each evening doing the same. The sunsets were spectacular.
I highly recommend this rental.
This property is amazing! Very clean and well appointed furnishings. It was more than enough room for our family group of 7 adults and 1 teenager. The views are priceless and it was very close to amazing restaurants and shopping. Willy (the property manager helped us arrange all of our activities as well as transportation to and from the airport which made our stay wonderful. Willy also helped us rent golf carts to get around Tamarindo which were waiting for us when we arrived at the property. We would definitely stay here again.
This huge, 2 story condo is truly spectacular. Great, safe area yet we still had gated 24 hour security and they even patrol the rooftop in the evening. We felt totally safe at every turn on this trip. Definitely rent a golf cart as it's much easier to get around town. Garage parking with elevator. Awesome pool, close to everything with a 5 minute golf cart ride...yet far enough away from the action that it was quiet when we returned to the condo. I would rent this place again if we come back.
This condo is the best rental my family and I have ever stayed in - it exceeded all of our expectations! The pictures of the view don't give it justice. We travelled with two teenage boys (who are hard to impress) and their jaws dropped when we walked on the porch! The inside of the condo was equally amazing with tons of space, comfy beds, and huge bathrooms. The view from the master shower was worth the price of our stay alone! We could've cooked a whole Thanksgiving meal in the kitchen with all of the equipment. The beach access was unbeatable - at low tide all of the fish and creatures get stuck in the clear tidal pools and we saw so many things. Iguanas walked by us every day! At high tide we sat on the porch and watched the surfers. The property management team including Willy, Justin, and Luis with Tamarindo Sunrise answered all of our questions, booked excursions and handled safe transportation for the entire trip - they were all awesome! The condo was spotlessly clean, so shout out to that team as well. The Playa Langosta location was perfect. We loved being close to Tamarindo, but out of the hustle and bustle of town. We rented a golf cart and zipped around to the restaurants, shops, the grocery store and for people watching. On our rides we saw howler monkeys and birds. I could go on and on - don't hesitate to book a stay in this condo!
Syd and Lynne are the most amazing hosts that I have experienced on any booking site. The property is beautiful and is everything you expect and more! The master balcony has a beautiful view of the ocean. I fell asleep out there almost every night. The security was attentive and very helpful. Justin the on-site property manager was very helpful and showed us around upon arrival. I can not understate how great this experience was, and anybody looking to travel to Tamarindo I would strongly recommend booking this property! Pura Vida
Wow! The property was beautiful! Willy was very helpful booking a golf cart and answering questions! If you are considering booking this property do not hesitate! I would highly recommend renting a golf cart to go into town! Our family had a great time! We cannot wait to go back!
This is easily the nicest rental property we have ever stayed in. The place could not have been cleaner or more beautiful and the location is just ideal. The views are stunning. Willy the property manager was super helpful and made the whole trip so incredibly easy. The security and quality level of everything down to the elevator was five stars plus. We have never felt so safe. I never saw a single ant or bug while we were in the condo and if you have ever visited Costa Rica, you know how amazing that is! The place was incredibly well stocked and appointed with all of the basics you don't want to have to buy when on vacation. If I had one minor request it would be for an extra set of towels for the bedrooms. The fact that this is the ONLY suggestion tells you how great our experience was! Thank you for letting us share your beautiful home. It made for a wonderful vacation for our family and friends.
The location of this condo is absolutely ideal, super close to all the activity and buzz in downtown Tamarindo, but also just far enough away to be super quiet.
Communication before, and during the stay was quick and easy, the site concierge staff responded almost immediately to any inquiries.
The condo itself is immaculately clean and has everything you could possibly need.
If I could live my whole entire life with just one view, it would be the one off of this balcony!
I will absolutely return!
This place is under the radar!! The location is suberb, the place is extremely clean and has everything you need (food, drinks, store in walking distance). The views are AMAZING. Quiet area with not a lot of traffic or tourists. If you are looking for the ideal place, look at the photoes and multiply by 10! Our family was in awe. Full time security at building, easy to get in and out and the property manager Willy was just a text message away. I wish I could give this place 6 stars.
