About this property

Private,Secluded Tamarindo Beach House -DIRECT BEACH ACCESS Perfect for families

**At Hacienda del Pacifico, we are very conscientious of the necessity to keep our guests as safe as possible for your stay with us. By design, our open air floor plan circulates air constantly. All rooms open to our private garden with pool. Our staff, a housekeeper and gardener, are fully briefed with the current health procedures to keep them and our guests safe. Tamarindo has had very few coronavirus cases. There is no need to travel anywhere outside of town, as the best beach in the area is directly in front of the Hacienda. Your safety is our primary concern, we will be happy to help you with any necessities.

Our high speed fiber optic internet is ideal for guests working remotely, as well as students doing virtual learning**

Hacienda del Pacifico is a newly renovated house, designed by a well known California architect.

Using inspiration from traditional hacienda style, the house opens on to a very private secluded garden with a lagoon shaped swimming pool. Hacienda style is all about open air walkways that connect parts of the house. The authentic indoor/outdoor living.

Unlike many of the more recently built houses and condos in the area, the Hacienda delivers a very unique Costa Rican experience. As one client expressed so well, 'you have your own tropical paradise'.

We have recently installed MistAway system that protects this property from mosquitoes & other pests. The botanical, all-natural insecticide allows you to enjoy the comforts of the outdoors without the worry of bugs.

Located at the south end of Tamarindo Bay, the Hacienda is one of the very few large houses in Tamarindo that has direct beach access from the front door. (see YouTube video) Our beach area has excellent swimming and surfing along with low tide rock pools ready to explore. A short walk around the point will give you the best sunset view in Tamarindo. If you go to the beach and forget something, or you want to have one last swim as the sun issetting - your bedroom is just a minute away.

The main focus of the house is the large 'walk gallery' connecting all the areas together around a central terrace area with swimming pool, patio and garden. The pool is more a free form lagoon with waterfall, which makes the garden look very tropical. All during the day, this area is frequented by a large variety of birds. Our kitchen is fully equipped and open to the patio and dining area, allowing guests to come and go as they please.

The house has 4 bedrooms, all with their own bathroom. The master suite is a separate 'casita' with a livingroom area, full bathroom and outside shower area. If you have never experienced an outside shower, it is a treat to be enjoyed!

We have a surfboard room and shower area so surfers and children with sandy feet can enter by a side gate and wash before entering the house area.

There is parking for two cars in front of the house. All bedrooms have a small safe for valuables.

Walk to town on the beach is 2 minutes. The finest hotel in Tamarindo, Capitan Suizo, is our neighbor. They serve delicious food and have music and barbeque evenings on the beach twice a week. Morning breakfast with howler monkeys in the trees is something they are famous for. Many of these howlers can be heard in the early morning from the Hacienda. Of course, making a fresh cup of coffee early in the morning in the Hacienda and then watching the sunrise on the beach is a great way to start a Costa Rican day.

What is unique is our location - which has become the best residential area of Tamarindo as we are off the main area of beach traffic and noise. We have access to everything you need with or without a car.

Complimentary fresh fruit, coffee, and beverages will be in the house upon your arrival.

We follow the CDC recommended enhanced cleaning protocol to keep our property clean and disinfected.

This house is so beautiful! Lexie was always available and so wonderful to work with. The beach was basically across the street which made it really easy to go back and forth. You are close enough to town to walk to all the restaurants or take a 2 min uber. We saw lots of wildlife.. and lots of bugs since the house is open air, but it was a fun experience and the house makes you feel like you are in the jungle. Loved it!

Absolutely loved our stay - a group of 6 plus a baby (my wife, kids, son-in-law, grandson). The property is amazingly beautiful and in a great location. Lexi was always responsive to our needs, and the property is updated and clean. We would jog each morning on the beach (just across the street) then jump in the pool to cool off. When not doing planned activities, we spent plenty of time at the beach, and my daughter and I even learned to surf board! If we come to Tamarindo again, there's no question - we will want to stay here again!

Great stay in Tamarindo

Beautiful residence. Hacienda layout with open setting to kitchen and rooms. Staff great. Lexie responsive to messages The road to it is a classic CR poor surface, but not far off main road. Need to fix washer lid as difficult to start wash. About a 5-10 minute walk to south end of main area of Tamarindo. Just a couple minute walk down lane to beach.

Family trip to Tamarindo

Pictures don’t quite do it justice, the home is amazing. Staff does a great job of keeping property tidy. Would highly recommend! Short walk to a quieter part of the beach, but still close to town. Also fun to walk around the point to Playa Longosta; lots of tide pools. Snorkeling is decent on the left side of the beach.

Perfect for an extended family. A beautiful setting - even better than the photos. The best location - away from the tumult yet easily walkable to town along a gorgeous beach. Anester, the housekeeper was a godsend and Leo, the gardener was also eager to be helpful. We loved the open Air layout, pool, comfortable beds and made full use of the well equipped kitchen.

Best house ever!

Hacienda del Pacifico was everything and more as described in the listing! Rooms were very comfortable and though it did come with specific instructions that were out of the ordinary for us tourists, everything was easy to manage And comply with. The daily maid services was excellent and the Gardner was there every day to attend to the pool. My family enjoyed this much more than a resort. We had all the amenities plus privacy. Though we ate most meals out, there is a great grocery about a mile away that had everything you might need or want. We’re def returning!

Perfect House and Location

We came to Tamarindo for a wedding, but didn’t want to stay at the hotel. There were 7 adults in our group who wanted something more private so we chose Hacienda del Pacifico. Pros: Each bedroom had its own bathroom. Courtyard area with pool and outdoor kitchen was AMAZING. Cleaning service came on certain days. Property felt safe and secure. Check in/out was very easy. Host was very responsive and helpful. Access to the beach was VERY convenient. House provided beach chairs, towels, ice chests. Cons: Our group had no complaints. Everyone enjoyed the home.

We absolutely loved our stay in this home!! From the moment I booked, the owner, Lexie, kept me updated and answered all my questions. When we arrived, we were greeted by the groundskeeper who went over all the important details about the house. They had even stocked the fridge with fresh fruit, milk, juice, and coffee. The housekeeper kept it clean and washed our clothes and towels daily. The pool was very relaxing after a day of hiking and surfing. And, the bedrooms were cool with comfy beds to dream of your next day’s adventures!! The house sits across the street from the access to the beach. It’s an easy walk to town for restaurants and shops! I definitely recommend this home!!

Beautiful house!

This was such a great house for our group of 6 - mom, dad, three teen/young adults sons and one friend. Everyone had plenty of space and we all enjoyed the pool and outdoor kitchen so much! The walk down to the beach is so easy and allowed our fishermen to head over to the rocks near Playa Langosta to fish and our surfers to go the other way to surf Tamarindo. The groundskeeper and housekeeper were just amazing and kept the house so neat and clean. We did have an issue with the master bedroom AC not cooling properly — it was resolved with a new AC unit for the room that works great. Thanks for a great week with wonderful family memories!

Perfect House For Our Family Vacation

First and foremost, many thanks to Lexie for her incredible communication and helping coordinate transportation to and from the airport. Additionally, her recommendations for activities and meals were spot on. The house is amazing; our extended family of eight had no problems finding comfort, space, and enjoyment in all that it had to offer. The rooms and beds were comfortable, the pool was inviting, the kitchen was ideal, and the location to the beach - just steps away - was perfect. Walking to shops and restaurants in and around town was also quite easy. Both Leo and Anestor were extremely helpful and made us feel welcomed as soon as we arrived. They take exceptional care of the property and its guests. Hacienda del Pacifico was the perfect house for our Costa Rican vacation, and there's no doubt it will be the same for yours. Pura Vida!

Literally 2 minutes to the beach, and a few minutes walk to town on the beach or street. Very safe area. Great bedroom setup for each couple. The open air concept , the pool , and the landscaping at the house are awesome. The housekeeper and the groundskeeper are very helpful , and kept the house spotless throughout our stay. The two issues that were really minor annoyances , but worth mentioning , were the alarm, that went off everyday , and usually at 5:30 am… probably caused by the raccoons or cat next door( very cute and friendly white cat with tabby tail) The other issue is the toilet paper which must be placed in a waste paper basket rather than flushed down the toilet. It wasn’t mentioned before hand, and was a bit off putting at first, but we all got used to it. We just bought some Huggies wipes, and Lysol

About the host

After coming to the Tamarindo area in 1995 to surf some of the best waves in Costa Rica, we were fortunate to find land to buy so we could surf directly in front of our house. We built the Hacienda with a little bit of nostalgia for old Spanish style California.

Why they chose this property

We chose to build our dream Hacienda in beautiful Playa Tamarindo, after coming here to surf some of the best breaks in Costa Rica.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful private courtyard, home is completely walled in and private, excellent location, less than a minute's walk to the beach, surfing, beach walks, swimming in the pool
