About Tamarindo

Tamarindo has evolved from a small fishing village into Costa Rica's premier Pacific beach town — without losing its character. World-class surfing, a thriving dining scene with 70+ restaurants, vibrant nightlife, and easy access to national parks, volcanoes, and wildlife make it the ideal base for exploring Guanacaste.

From the villa, you're a seven-minute walk to the beach and close to restaurants, shops, and surf schools. Yet you return each evening to the privacy and luxury of your own estate — where Howler monkeys may greet you from the professionally manicured gardens.
