Beautiful location. Outstanding condo. Much more then expected. Can't wait to return
It’s was a wonderful place with stunning views every day, each family member had their own bedroom & bathroom which made it very comfortable, the location is perfect and we walked to most things every night.

Matapalo is one of the best condo buildings. Located in the heart of town, it is also not right in the center so you do not have the bad traffic and noise around you. Everything is within walking distance. No need to rent a car.
24 security on site, a gated community, beautiful scenic pool, you will love being close to the beach and the shops.
Unit 606 is an elegant 3 BDR penthouse on the 6th floor to enjoy an amazing view of the ocean. Fully equipped it is perfect for 3 couples or a family. The unit includes 3 kingsize beds.
The condo was lovely, updated, clean and very spacious. Located right in center of town, we were able to walk to everything for shopping and eating. The property nanager was very quick in responding to questions, etc. I would highly recommend

Thank you for choosing Matapalo 606 for your vacation stay. It was a pleasure to host you. The Matapalo condos have an idea location in the heart of town, within walking distance to the stores and restaurants that you do not even need a car if you choose to stay your entire time in Tamarindo.
We are sorry the master shower gave you a hard time. We have already worked on sealing the glass to prevent further issues.
Thanks, again and we look forward to hosting you again in a near future!
If I could move into this condo I would in a heart beat. Our family of 5 had the most amazing trip even in light of the COVID19 scare.

Awesome location! Amazing views. The Google maps link was wrong so had a hard time finding the unit. Great communication from owners. My three teenage girls loved being in the center of town and across from surfing! Would definitely come back!

Stayed with our 7 and 11 year old daughters. This condo was perfect for our family. Parking was easy, property felt secure, unit was spotless and well stocked. Pictures are accurate. Waking up to ocean views daily was an important criteria for us. Traveling with two young ones we made much use of the washer/dryer. I call this our home base because we also did an overnight near Mt Areal. It was great to not have to pack everything and come back to what felt like home. Five stars! I’d stay again without hesitation

The entire experience was excellent. From the access/checkin to the rental to the checkout. RPM was available for all my questions. The rental was in excellent condition. This is our second time working with RPM at this facility and this is the only place I will stay in Tamarindo.
This has to be the best accommodations in all of Tamarindo. I can’t imagine anything being better. We had way more space than we needed but better than having less than needed. Everything you could need is provided. With washer and dryer, I don’t have to worry about laundry when I get back home. I can only hope that this condo is available next time I come. Thank you to the owners for the gifts throughout our stay. Much appreciated. Pura vida!

You don't need a car
This review is late, but much deserved. Tamarindo is great because you don’t need a car. Our family of 6 spent Thanksgiving at this condo and walked everywhere. The view is to die for and we spent a great deal of time on the patio relaxing and having our meals there. The kitchen is nicely equipped and stores are nearby. There is a large lagoon pool below with a swim up bar and just across the street is the beach. It is not as far as it appears in the photo. We would definitely stay here again.

The Condo was great and all fit very comfortably. the condo has everything you needed and was great. the Pool and a short walk to the beach was great. Tamarindo the town is awesome beach town right on the ocean and tons of places to each. The 6th floor was great and had views of the sunset which is an important part of the day. Sunsets in CR are awesome. i would stay there again.

Thank you so much for the review. We are so glad you had a great time and enjoyed this beautiful unit. We are looking forward to hosting you again.
This property is very well laid out with a king bed and bathroom in each bedroom and an extra powder room in the living area. The kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook or grill while watching the sunset from your balcony. The space feels very big and would be perfect for a family or up to 3 couples. Leave your car keys at home because you can walk anywhere from this property. The biggest decision you will have to make is whether to relax at the pool or the beach…don’t stress too much as there is no wrong choice. The property manager was very responsive at all times. Highly recommend this property.

If your looking for a great place to stay look no further! This condo has everything you need and more. First the views are amazing and can be seen on any one of the three balcony’s. We enjoyed the sunsets but also enjoyed watching the monkeys our big decision of the day was do we watch the sunset or the monkeys playing in the trees?The location not only gives you amazing views but is also close to everything including a short walk to the beach, shops and restaurants.
This condo is spacious and well laid out. All three bedrooms have king beds and private bathrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed the treats the owner/property management left for us.
The next time we are in Tamerindo this is the only place we would stay!

This condo in Tamarindo Diria Resort was amazing. My husband and I stayed with our two sons, their wives, and our baby granddaughter, and there was always room for everyone. It is huge, luxurious, clean, and the views cannot be beat anywhere in the world. We felt safe and very well taken care of. The staff were incredible and answered all of our needs. Our sons surf (one is a serious surfer) and they loved the wave action in the pacific, while the rest of us had a blast in the tremendous pool with a swim-up bar. The town of Tamarindo is fun with friendly people everywhere and GREAT food. You can't go wrong here.

We had a wonderful stay at this condo! It was our third trip to this condo complex, and this condo was by far the nicest... The views were incredible, as was the amazing art work in the condo. We were pleased with how well the kitchen was appointed and the TV/Internet set up was very easy to use. The management company communicated early and often and were very professional to work with. The only feedback I would give is that the condo could probably use a few more beach towels. Other than that very small matter, a perfect stay!

Beautiful condo within walking distance of everything
Really happy with our stay at Matapalo #606. The condo is very spacious with 3 large bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen, nice dining area, laundry room (which we used frequently), large covered deck with outdoor dining, and multiple balconies. We had a beautiful ocean view and overlooked the well-maintained pool area. Wi-fi worked well and TV comes with Netflix, which made the kids happy, too.
The property is very safe and located within easy walking distance to numerous restaurants, the beach, shopping, etc. RPM was easy to work with and we didn't have any issues with the rental process. We would definitely stay there again. Our only nit, and it's a small one, is they need to put some plastic stripping or something around the master shower door so that the floor doesn't get soaked after every shower. Other than that, this is a fantastic rental and we're looking forward to staying here again in the future!
