About this property

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 area 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, savour 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.

My husband and I had the most amazing stay at Casita Del Mar! From the moment we arrived, Roger and Pat made us feel so welcomed and right at home. The space was absolutely spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly cozy, and our favorite part was that it was right on the beach! We loved spending our time relaxing on the porch, watching all of the wildlife (including monkeys and squirrels!), and listening to the birds and ocean waves. It was truly the perfect place to slow down, relax, and enjoy the beauty of the area. Roger and Pat were so kind and helpful, giving us wonderful recommendations for places to eat and things to do nearby. We had a minor issue with the WiFi during our stay, and they were incredibly responsive and quick to get it resolved for us. We are so grateful for our stay and can’t wait to come back to Casita Del Mar again. Thank you, Roger and Pat, for making our trip so special!

The whole property was well maintained. The room and kitchen were spotless. The balcony provided an excellent hang out spot to watch monkeys and birds eat the fruit. The beach in the backyard was the chefs kiss to the whole experience. Would recommend.

Roger and Pat are awesome. The place is very clean. We liked the fluffy towels and we were able to get our laundry done. Its centrally located--close to beach, markets, restaurants. They had chairs, a cooler and boogie boards available. Pat and Roger thought of everything. They even let me use their printer. Very few places deserve a 10. They deserve a 10.

We loved our stay at Casita Del Mar. The location was fantastic, right on the quiet end of Tamarindo Beach. You could surf right outside our door. Casita had everything we needed and it was cleaned every three days by Kathy, who did an excellent job.

When I think back on my week in Tamarindo, my stay at Casita del Mar tops the list of memorable experiences. The property is beautifully maintained, and just a few steps from the beach. Pat and Roger have mastered the art of hospitality. They are genuinely warm and welcoming without ever being intrusive, always responsive when I had a question while giving me the space to simply enjoy my vacation.The casita was exactly as described and absolutely spotless. The king-size bed was incredibly comfortable, the Wi-Fi was reliable, and the hot water never failed. Everything simply worked, allowing me to relax completely.As an older solo Black woman traveler, safety and comfort are essential. Casita del Mar provided both effortlessly. I was completely at ease walking to the beach, grocery stores, restaurants, and shops, all just minutes away. Breakfast at Sofia's across the street is a must, and dinner up the street at Capitan Suizo is wonderful with amazing prices. Even the one evening celebration at Sofia's added to the neighborhood's charm, and the howler monkeys' enthusiastic introductions made for an unforgettable Costa Rican memory.For one wonderful week, Casita del Mar became home. I arrived needing rest and returned home restored, and ready to step back into my life.I wholeheartedly recommend Casita del Mar to anyone visiting Tamarindo and would happily stay there again. Thank you, Pat and Roger, for creating not just exceptional accommodations, but a true sense of home.
