On the Beach. Casita Del Mar is a Studio - Sleeps 2. Great Reviews. Private.

AN IDEAL SPOT ON AN IDEAL BEACH. The Casita is located directly on the sands of Tamarindo Beach. It is a studio with 1 king bed or 2 twins, 1 bath and sleeps 2.

Casita Del Mar is a separate private unit built up in the trees in order to enjoy the ocean view and the cool ocean breezes and gives maximum privacy. Located on the southern end of Tamarindo Beach, midway between Tamarindo and Langosta, the Casita is an ideal hideaway. The Casita is situated in a tropical garden in a quiet, secluded neighborhood across from Isla del Capitan and three doors north of Hotel Capitan Suizo, one of the premier hotels in Costa Rica.

Yet just a few steps to the white sands of Tamarindo Beach puts you in the best location for sunning, surfing, swimming, kayaking to Isla del Capitan or a moonlight stroll after dinner. Walk two minutes to Hotel Capitan Suizo and its world-class restaurant or walk ten minutes to the heart of Tamarindo for shops, restaurants and night life. Best of all, you can look out at the Tamarindo Bay to check out the waves, watch the fishing fleet go out and return each day or simply read, relax and monitor the daily activity of the beach.

The Casita is a spacious studio apartment up high in the mango tree and coconut palms, many of our guests refer to it as "The Treehouse".

Casita Del Mar has a bath with an open shower, a full kitchen, air-conditioning, and an outside terrace in the trees. There is cable TV, Wi-Fi and maid service. Off-street secured parking is available on the property.

Enjoy days of swimming or surfing, horseback ride through the surrounding rivers and hills, savor the local fiesta scene, and then relax with a private massage on the terrace overlooking the garden or have a special beachside massage. All these things and much more are available to guests of Casita Del Mar.

Spacious on beach

The studio is spacious with nice kitchen area and bathroom. And there’s hot water for shower. There’s also a large deck; there was maid service she did the laundry for me. They have boogie boards, chairs, fins coolers for beach. You walk out of property and you’re on the beach. Was not crazy about beach, no sand and very crowded but that has nothing to do with rental. And I did not find restaurants and bars within walking distance. There was lovely and pricey restaurant, Sophia’s across street. Overall nice stay would rent again.

Great place to stay on Tamarindo Beach

Roger and Pat are the best hosts. They met us at the gate after a shaky drive from LIR, and all was wonderful for the time we stayed there. Nicely stocked kitchen, wonderful restaurant right across the road, and many many beach bars/restaurants along the beach. Our fave quickly became El Be. Great food and one of the best beach bands we've ever heard called Brother Brutus play on Saturday. Can walk into towne easily and get anything you want. Howler monkeys free of charge. This casa was the best!

Great location on the beach, perfect for short stay

The location is perfect .. on the beach .. steps away but .. behind the main house so no view. There is a fresh water shower for when you come off the beach which is nice and beach chairs (which are in need of an update) and boogie boards .. nice bonus!The Casita has everything for a shorter stay .. but not really suitable for cooking (or longer stay); the kitchen only has an induction 2 ring cook top and the BBQ is below the Casita by a pile of rubble (not inviting). There is also no storage for any food ... but you'll need to keep everything in the refrigerator due to sugar ants that will find any fruit left out! We ate out every night.Overall, It's clean and comfortable ... The patio furniture is not the most comfortable ... but we spent all our time at the beach.

All too short...

It was with a sigh of relief when we arrived at the Casita and a proper welcome/refuge for the 5 days we stayed there.We'd just had a two-week tour of Costa Rica and were very much in need of a few days' relaxation before returning home.The accommodation was beautifully clean and well-equipped. Clear instructions are provided to keep guests in line with the ecological functioning and responsibilities of households in the area. Just to reassure people, there is ample space for 2 in the apartment so as not to feel cramped at all!We wished we could have stayed longer.

Fabulous

An amazing quiet space right on the edge of everything! Roger emailed us early on and continued to provide us information about our stay right up until check in. I felt prepared for our visit and had everything we needed to make us feel right at home. Steps from the beach and walking distance to town with the benefit of a quiet retreat away from it all! Can’t wait to come back!!

6 days on the beach

We stayed here for 6 nights and had a great stay. The place is a studio sitting on the same property as a larger house and shares a walkway to the beach. Great location as it is only a few steps to the beach and then easy to walk in to town as well. It also felt very secure and was clean.

Very well equipped

We had everything we needed during our recent 4 night stay. The casita is extremely comfortable with good wifi, plus extra's like foil, saran wrap, sunscreen, bug juice, coffee, salft and pepper, etc. The bed was perfect, as were all the household linens. It's away from the noisiest part of Tamarindo which is very nice. New restaurant across the street Sofia's was wonderful. Highly recommend Casita del Mar.

Good beachside property!

This property is right on the beach! It is outdated & needed updating. The shower head & tap were leaking badly & should've been replaced before we got there! The photos taken for the website were taking with a wide angled lense, so it leads you to believe the property is bigger than it actuqlly is!!

Casita Del Mar was a wonderful place to stay. I can not say enough good things about my stay. This condo is perfect for one person or a couple. Perfect location for a ten minute walk to town on the street or from the beach directly in front of the condo.

Beautiful Casita, great property on the beach!

My wife and I were celebrating 25 years together and we could not have picked a better place! The property is beautifully maintained with lush, tropical gardens, and gated security. That makes you feel extremely safe and secure. The property opens up directly on the beach with amazing views, The Great location just off the hustle and bustle but not too far to walk to a really nice restaurant of your choice or walk down the beach to a bar or coffee shop. The shower was hot and the bed was comfortable. The owner offer also provides amenities such as beach chairs, and boogie boards That make it convenient When enjoying beach activities. There’s a large mango tree in the courtyard that happened to drop a couple mangoes that we really enjoyed eating. I highly recommend this place and look forward to visiting with the whole family in the near future!
