Amazing Costa Rica getaway

We had a large group of 12 (combo of family & friends) stay for a week at Casa De Luz. The house was spacious and worked out great for our groups needs. Lorena and Liz were fantastic cooks for us all week and Rafa was very helpful scheduling excursions and golf cart rentals we wanted. Casa De Luz is a great location if you want to be on the beach in a safe neighborhood but close enough to drive the golf cart into Tamarindo to shop, grab dinner, or enjoy the nightlife.

Howley Family Vacation

We had a fabulous stay and our family of 8 adults and 4 teenage boys, had a wonderful time. The house was so well laid out, that we all had plenty of space and enjoyed the grounds and location immensely. The location was the cherry on top of the sundae. Golf carting to stores, restaurants, food trucks, grocery stores was so easy. Would highly recommend this home to others.

An amazing location but a walk to town

It was everything it needed to be for four families with kids ranging from age 7 to 13. The pool is amazing. The walk to town is about 3/4 of a mile so it takes bit, we loved using the golf cart. The private dinners were a huge plus! The service was nothing short of amazing.

Year two at Casa de Luz- feels like home!

We have stayed here two years in a row and have loved it both times. Just a perfect location and beautiful home. Aly is always quick to respond to questions or issues (minor, to say the least) and the staff on site take excellent care of the property. Hope to return many more times to Casa de Luz and the Tamarindo/Playa Langosta area. I consider it my home away from home.

Wonderful Family Visit to Tamarindo

Wow! What an incredible experience at Casa De Luz! My family of 12 adults and one adorable baby boy spent a week enjoying the sea and pool. The house had excellent gathering spaces and was very comfortable. Rafa provided spot on service both before and during our stay, attending to all of our needs in a timely and professional manner. Our daytime housekeeper prepared a great breakfast daily. Not to be overlooked was the fabulous evening meals prepared by Patricia. Truly a Costa Rican food extravaganza! Thank you to the Stay at Tamarindo staff for an outstanding experience!

We found the perfect property for all 17 of us, and the most interesting and enjoyable space to have fun, play board games, investigate new places and activities. Aly was so very helpful with scheduling all of our excursions - loved the ziplining and ATVs, catamaran sunset cruise and horseback riding. Patricia, our cook, was FANTASTIC!

We selected this property for our family gathering and to house everyone for our oldest daughter's wedding. The location and home were perfect with plenty of space for everyone and a great central gathering spot to have meals and quality time together. This home also provided a perfect location for our daughter and her family members to get ready for the wedding, we also took some great family photos down by the beach.

This is the spot!!!

Epic house. We took 14 friends to Costa Rica and all I can say is this house was the PERFECT venue to host the location!!! Beach front, beautiful and big. The host/concierge Rafa is the MAN!! From the point you book your stay he basically quarterbacks your entire trip!!! Want to make yourself look like the most well-organized travel planner your friends have ever met? You need Rafa to plan your stay in Tamarindo. The house staff was amazing, house was always clean and food and drinks during the day constantly coming out… whether it was breakfast, ceviche, fun drinks, immaculate dinners. Staying at this place truly allows you to just book your flights and forget the rest. Leave it to Rafa and his team at “Stay in Tamarindo” coordinate the trip of a lifetime.

Great location with gorgeous sunsets

We traveled with six adults and six kids and had a great time at Casa de Luz. The house has a beautiful pool with easy access and views of the beach and sunset. Our group had plenty of room to spread out over the property. The house location was perfectly placed in Playa Langosta with easy access to Tamarindo via golf cart. Rafa our concierge took care of EVERYTHING. Rafa was truly fantastic, and we would highly recommend this property and asking form him to help with your vacation. He made everything at the house seamless, including transportation to & from the airport, golf carts delivered to the house, grocery delivery, meals prepared at the house (including freshly caught mahi-mahi that he also helped book the offshore charter), coordinating with the pool and cleaning staff, zip line tours, etc. We look forward to returning soon!

Villa with beautiful sunsets

We celebrated my parent's 50th anniversary in this villa. There were 15 of us in the house for the week and the house mom's were incredible. It was very nice to have breakfast cooked and the villa cleaned every morning. We did have issues with the washing machine and Rafa and his crew repaired the issue next day. Then the washer broke again that night and they brought us a replacement. My family and I did not get our luggage so the washing machine was very important to us. The location is fantastic and a short walk along the beach or street to the main beach. I would recommend this villa and we plan to be back sometime in the future.

Family 60th Birthday trip

We took our children, grandchildren, best friends and extended family. With 17 people we needed a larger home. This home was almost perfect for our group. Only thing would have been better is if the bunk room wasn’t connected to two other rooms and we had one more Shower for the kids/ The house is well used and wasn’t as clean as it could have been for the price but the location was spectacular!! So I just bought some cleaning supplies, a veggie peeler, and spiffed things up a bit. Rafa was amazing and very responsive. House staff was very friendly but didn’t really cook breakfast like I was hoping to have it done so I just did it. Trips we booked were amazing we had a great time!

Aly did an outstanding job of managing every detail of our trip from airport transfers, to lunch/dinner reservations, to excursions, etc. Per her recommendation, we hired a private chef who made breakfast for us every morning and dinner most nights.

Amazing spring break stay!

We just had an incredible spring break with 3 families at Casa de Luz-3 older teens stayed in the Casita which was perfect for them and the adults and other children stayed in the main house. The pool set up is beautiful and shady by late afternoon. The beach is wonderful to watch sunsets. You need water shoes to get in the ocean at low tide and it is not advised to swim at high tide due to the rocks. The house is beautiful, the staff is fabulous and made as breakfast each morning, cleaned everything and did our laundry. We used the private chef service for two dinners and they were so good. They made us snacks, appetizers and drinks as well. Rafa is great-he organized all of our transportation and excursions. He also communicated when things did not go as planned-did have no water a couple of times due to water shortage and the main gate was not working, but he got on it as quickly as he could, especially during a holiday week. He made us dinner reservations as well and added a few people to an excursion last minute. He responded quickly and always ensured we were well taken care of. Playa Longosta is a quieter part of town with great places to eat and an easy golf cart ride into Tamarindo. We loved our week, it is paradise!

Wonderful Beachfront Home - great for kids!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We celebrated a bunch of 40 year old birthdays by renting this beautiful oceanfront home for five families. The home was wonderfully spacious, the pool was amazing and the rocky oceanfront provided hours of tide-pool viewing and snorkeling fun. We had a group of 10 adults and 10 kids, 4 of which were under 1 year old. The house worked perfectly for us. The bigger kids all enjoyed sleeping in the bunk room (which sleeps 6 kids comfortably). Aly, the house manager, was quick to respond to our questions and needs. She even lent us her DVD player as the one at the house was being replaced. The short drive to town was convenient for when we wanted to go get ice cream and swim at beautiful sandy beach. The walk to the sandy beach was about 20 min but was a very easy walk along the ocean. I highly recommend Casa de Luz. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
