El Diria 301- Ocean View 3 Bedroom Condo

Great quick communication with host. Condo was perfect size for our family and excellent location right in the heart of downtown. Kids loved the pool, learned to surf with Joshua booked right at El Diria, which was also the perfect spot to grab cocktails and watch sunsets. We walked everywhere, didn’t need to touch the car our entire stay. Still, our favorite part was the tree right outside the balcony which was filled with howler monkeys, iguanas, various birds and dragon flies. The balcony was perfectly private, tucked away at the end of the building and an incredibly peaceful way to have your morning coffee while enjoying the pura vida!

We had a great vacation in Costa Rica. It was our third visit to Tamarindo and second to El Diria. The property is excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed the giant pool, wildlife and walks on the beach. Our unit was in the older building. It was vey clean and well-kept. The back bathroom had a lack of hot water and the washer & dryer were unreliable. There also was no closets in the back bedroom and loft.

We loved staying in this condo! beautiful grounds. The host was very welcoming, gave us all the information we needed. We had a very small issue with one of the shower heads and they rectified it the same day. We would definitely stay here again!

View was wonderful. Pool was gorgeous and perfect temp. Loved the balcony!

Great communication by our host! Lovely condo and great community.

The reason we rated this 3 stars, is because it is part of Diria Resort, a very nice and well kept resort. The huge lagoon pool that you are able to use is perfect, and the resort location is right in town, and across the street from the beach. The unit itself needs work, two of the three showers were a nightmare. The master bathroom shower handle fell off every time we tried to turn it on. The Bule Zone company was responsive, but the men who came to fix it did nothing to help. The second shower head didn't put out any water. The unit is musty smelling, and the AC works well in the main section, but the bedroom doors had to stay open, or you couldn't deal with the warm temps in the rooms. The sliding doors to the balcony are not well maintained, and the screen doors are not worth trying to use them. The worst part of all, is that the workers tell you that this is a three story walk up. NOT from the ground level where the pool, and the road is, it's 92 steps, or 7 stories up. Once you come out of the condo for the day, you aren't walking all the way back up there without good reason. Blue Zone was good at setting up airport shuttle, and seemed to offer a lot of different tours. Tamarindo is lovely, very safe, but more expensive due to so many tourists now invading the area. The people of Costa Rica are a pure delight.

Property was just as expected. Clean, comfortable and convenient. The people working on the grounds were also very friendly and helpful. Great stay!

Everything we needed and expected! The monkeys outside the patio was a plus!

The stay would have been perfect if it wasn’t for the inconvenience caused. There was construction work being done on the property with workers starting at 7:30 am throughout the day. Workers were banging, drilling and hammering loudly. The work was directly outside the balcony with workers walking, looking in and talking to one another. There was no privacy and no relaxation. Highly disappointed as this was supposed to be a recharging weekend for me and my family.

We love Costa Rica but this experience was top notch - the host emailed all of the check in instructions days prior to arrival which I really appreciated. Upon arrival I was confused and emailed them (on a Sunday) and was surprised by the extremely prompt reply. I realized hten that I had misread the instructions but that set the tone for a high touch experience. From arrival to departure we felt the high level of service and it really made our vacation. We can't wait to book again! This unit comes complete with an animal show lol. The howler monkeys were right outside our balcony every morning and it was a real treat. Thank you for everything!

Everything was fantastic

We absolutely loved this place. The condo is very nice, clean. The view is spectacular.

Property is set back from the noise and activity on the beach but just a quick walk to it. Nice pool and patio near the condo and wonderful beachfront lawn and restaurant, ideal for watching the sunset.Denisse was very responsive and helpful. We also scheduled the day trip to Arenal Volcano and the hanging bridges and hot springs and that was great as well.

Great stay at Diria. The balaciny provides awesome views of the ocean, the sunset and the main pool which is lit beautifully at night. The monkeys were in the trees right next to our balcony which were fun to watch as well. The condo had everything we needed for the 5 of us. Nice to have 3 bathrooms. Great stay!

Great spot. Great service.

Great property, location and management
