Perfect Family Retreat with the best Sunset views: Luxury Beachfront house w/ Pool & Heated Jacuzzi

Our host, Elsa, worked with us for months in advance to book an amazing string of activities over our 10 days. We were three generations with 16 people and everything worked flawlessly. One of our best family vacations ever. The kitchen staff was skilled, friendly and responsive to all our varied needs. The home and beach setting was paradise for us all.

It was everything we had dreamed of! Lots of smiles on our family’s faces.

Casa Costa Blanca is a spectacular property in a fantastic and convenient location - the pictures are accurate and say it all - perfect for our large family group (adults, teens and children). The staff were friendly, professional and efficient.Then there was our property manager / concierge - Elsa Verges. She is without a doubt the finest concierge with which we have ever worked. Whether it was planning an activity six months in advance or last minute - large or small - she was able to accommodate every request. If you are planning a trip to Tamarindo, selecting a property managed by Elsa will likely guarantee a great vacation.

I can’t express enough how unbelievably incredible this stay was. The house is insanely gorgeous and looks just like the pictures. The details (concrete steps, built-in speakers, color-changing light up hot tub) made it that much more special. The house staff was incredible. One of our door hinges broke and they fixed it quickly. The house moms took all of our requests for laundry, snacks, drinks, etc. Elsa, the concierge, was able to make great accommodations including getting us house call massages and even recommended a tattoo artist. The beach was beautiful as well. The only thing I would make note of is the beach had larger pebbles in some areas and has large rock formations; still beautiful, but not the kinda place you can just walk up the shoreline. There were cool creatures like hermit crabs, regular little crabs, raccoons, lizards, and some gnats; if seeing these and having them occasionally make it inside (minus the raccoons) is too much for you, perhaps this isn’t the place for you. I loved seeing the wildlife and it made the trip that much more memorable. I would 100% recommend this stay for anyone.

We stayed at this property with my entire family. It was an amazing place with space for everyone. The photo’s on the website are good but honestly don’t do the place justice. The pool and covered area in the back are hard to get the scale from the photos. The covered patio is huge and offers a lot of shade during the day and the pool is bigger than we expected with a deep end and a lap area that was great. The property’s access to a beach that doesn’t see much activity from other people is great. The high tide comes up to the tree’s at the back of the property making it easy to enjoy the coast from the house. Elsa was great with helping us plan activities for our trip and connecting us with different vendors and chef’s. The other thing of value that we didn’t consider originally when booking was having the house moms who prepared huge breakfasts, drinks and kept the place clean and tidy. With activities planned in the mornings it was great working with them to have a later breakfast/lunch and being able to come back to the home and have a meal ready for us. We would recommend the property and would consider coming back. Additional notes below, I have more good things to say but am running out of characters.- The touch screen espresso machine was very convenient for kids and adults.- AC's work great, thermostats in each room.- Recommend bringing in a chef. We had a Chef Israel and his team prepare some meals and I would request him again if we returned.

The property has it all. We elected the premium package and the ladies prepared a full breakfasts for 16. I'm referring to bacon, eggs, pancakes toast, fruit and juice drinks. The daily housekeeping was impeccable and having our laundry done was wonderful. The rest of the family did their own.We hired chef Loiuis to prepare outstanding dinners for the evening we arrived and a cookout on the evening before we departed. The beef cut like butter and chicken was beyond tender and tasty.Elsa, the concierge, was helpful to the maximum. She knew what was going on and was able to answer any questions we had. Elsa was friendly, professional and most pleasant.Having the Pacific about 250 feet from our back door certainly helped!This was likely our favorite family vacation to date and we've had many!

We booked this house for 16 family members ranging from ages 10-74 and it was perfect for everyone! The pool area was stunning and the kids played for hours in the pool and we spent most of our time hanging out outside. The house staff and Elsa were great to work with.

This property is outstanding! Excellent staff & service, spotless, well-located, and steps from the water. The two kitchens make entertaining a breeze — perfect for splitting social time and quiet time between floors. Highly recommend!

Perfect for a family of eight

This setting makes for a dream vacation. So much so that I almost don't want to write a review and have more people want to use it and make it unavailable. The house is comfortable and beautiful. The outside grounds, pool, hot tub, kitchen, sand and setup are perfect. And, the beach is right there too.The staff and management company are all top drawer.We look forward to another magical vacation right there again.

Our large family group (15 in total) had an absolutely fantastic time at this beautiful property. The location is ideal, on the beach and within a well-run, well-maintained private community. The concierge, Elsa, was a tremendous help in planning all our activities (all of which exceeded our expectations) and the house moms and staff couldn't have been more accommodating. Ours was a dream vacation come true.

We had 10 adults and 9 kids and the house was perfect! Plenty of room, adults slept soundly and I disturbed. We spent so much time in the pool and back yard. Kids played wiffle ball in the sand below the pool. Concierge took care of everything! Great stay!

This was a family vacation for our children and grandchildren to celebrate many accomplishments and to gather together. This property was excellent in every way in affording a beautiful and comfortable setting with the best location and amenities one could want. It was truly a dream vacation for us all.Exceeded our expectations.

House was great. Staff was great. Weather was iffy, but OK. concierge service was top notch. the only real issue was that there was a house under construction right next door. However, it proved not to be as big a bother as it might have been.

Everything was as represented. Elsa did an amazing job coordinating our activities. The beach was fun no matter high or low tide. The children loved the coffee station all day long! Johnnie and Anika were excellent House Staff. For a week of rain we had a great time
