Your Private Pool is waiting for you in Costa Rica!

Situated in the Ara del Mar community within the gated Los Delfines Golf Club, this fully equipped villa will provide you, your family and friends with the perfect getaway location in friendly Costa Rica! Bring home a Red Snapper and shrimp from the Pescadaria and have a feast that you will never forget! Or eat out every night at local restaurants or the Rancho at the beach.

Bedroom #3 (Double Bottom and Twin Top Bunk Bed) has rolling containers under the bed. All bedrooms and living room windows have vertical blinds. The modern kitchen with granite island and 3 stools boasts the latest appliances and cookware for the gourmet chef.

The Low (Green) Season (May to November) is just as good or better than the High Season due to the occasional (and usually short) rain events. Sunny and warm 30C every day but everything stays green due to the rain. If you are looking for less people, this is the time for you. September and October are the rainiest months but even then generally there are one or two showers a day that you can plan around because they are usually around the same time of day each day.

Once again we had a wonderful stay at this villa in Los Delphines. It has a very well equipped kitchen , comfortable patio furniture and table and chairs outside which we used for almost every meal. The bedrooms are comfortable and lots of sheets, towels and beach towels. The stunning, long beach is just a short walk and there are beach chairs at the villa. The area is a paradise for nature lovers and those who appreciate tranquility however there is lots to do, see and explore as well . Our family went fishing and saw whales, dolphins and turtles while catching our dinner . Horse back riding is a/v at the beach and through the surrounding farms and forests.We hope to return again soon.

Great Place to Stay

This the 3rd time we have stayed at this villa. The villa was excellent for our family who visited at different times over the 3 months. Great neighbors over this time and the Los Delfines area offers lots of great choices for activities. There is a lot of development occurring so construction activity is constant. On-site dining is limited to El Rancho which is good and very amenable for owners and guests. Property management is professional and timely with responsive to any questions or issues within their control.

Amazing stay in Tambor Beach

My mother and I had an incredible stay at this property located within the beautiful Los Delfines Golf & Country Club. We loved having our own private pool just steps from the patio. The pool was kept as clean as the rest of the villa and made for a relaxing time when we were not driving to the nearby beaches. The beach located inside the community was clean and nice as well as the Restaurant, making it very convenient when we did not feel like going far! Communication was easy and quick. Everyone inside the community was so pleasant and friendly and we felt so safe and content the entire stay!! Thank you so much for having us, we will be back :D

Return to our favorite vacation place

We returned to the Los Delfines Golf & Country Club after 2+ years absence due to COVID. I am a member of this excellent 9 hole golf course and played 18 holes 3x a week. This was our first stay in the Ara Del Mar villas after several stays in the older area. We were pleased with the lay-out and amenities in this villa and have a return booking for December. This villa had good kitchen facilities since on site dining is limited to the Rancho on the beach open Thursday - Sunday. The beach is excellent for "hanging out", walking and activities such as beach volleyball. We are familiar with this area and have friends that we visited in Los Delfines and the Tambor area. We booked for this time because it is when the weather turns from Summer "hot" to more rain and the area becomes "green".

Very nice and secure area to stay 10 minute walk to beach...

The Villa is well equipped with everything you need to cook and prepare meals, the bedrooms are nice and comfortable, the only issues we had was with the AC units freezing up but I just removed filters and cleaned them up and then they worked great there after also the locks on the patio doors are terrible so I just found some pieces of wood to secure the doors worked great then we did not have to deal with those patio locks...Pool was kept clean the only thing that would be nice is if there was patio stones leading to the pool so you don't track grass into the pool and into the Villa. Overall it was a great place to stay. Thank you.

Great house with lovely yard!

Our family of 4 adults really enjoyed our stay at this charming house in Delfines. The floor plan is wonderful with 3 bedroom upstairs and the main living down. The a/c functions well, the private yard has a cute pool, and the property manager is very responsive to any questions. Delfines is has a fantastic beach that is nearly deserted - wonderful for swimming or long strolls on the sand. The wildlife is awesome - make sure to take a stroll along the golf course at sunset to see the macaws returning to their homes for the night. Overall a great vacation. Thanks! :) Lisa

Our winter escape in Tambor

We had a wonderful experience at our recent VRBO in Tambor. The house was well maintained and more than adequate with a modern kitchen,appliances and lots of bedding and towels. It was an easy 10 min. walk to the beautiful, quiet beach. We could pick up groceries etc on sight and there is good shopping in Cobano a 20 min. drive way.Its a very quiet area which was perfect for us as we enjoyed the birds, monkeys, walking the beach etc. There is a wonderful fruit and vegetable market in Tambor every Sat where you can also buy fresh fish and a grocery store that is open every day.. Any little repairs or needs were handled immediately by Joseph, our contact at Los Delphines .He also met us with the key endgame us a tour when we arrived. We did hand a small clothes line outside so we weren't hanging wet towels, bathing suits in the house. All in all , we had a great holiday in Costa Rica.

Very nice villa, pool was great!

The villa was everything that we expected. It was beautiful inside, but we spent most of our time outside by the pool when not at the golf tournament. The kitchen was well stocked with everything that we needed. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. The AC in the bedrooms was perfect for a good night's sleep. Bathrooms are very modern and functional. The glossy porcelin tiles throughout the villa was very stylish and helped to keep it cooler inside. We would highly recommend this villa and will definitely stay next time we come back.
