Great, spacious condo. Loved the layout and 1st floor, poolside location. Equipped with everything you need (including beach towels and chairs), and hosts are very communicative and helpful.
We absolutely loved the condo and pool was huge and really nice. The grounds were well landscaped and maintained. We loved being able to walk to restaurants, shopping, excursions and the beach. No need for a car. I highly recomnend this location.
The property, location, and staff were exceptional! We traveled with 5 adults and 2 small children and never felt crowded. The condo was well stocked and very spacious. The ground floor was convenient and provided easy access to the pool area. We would definitely stay here again.
The property and location was perfect for our family of five (including 3 teenagers)! Plenty of space to stretch out but a great table for us to come together to play cards at night. The pool right outside our door was perfect (hello swim up bar!) and the resort was walkable to all our dinners. I’d highly recommend!
We had an amazing spring break in Tamarindo. The condo was beautiful and perfect for our family of five. We loved the swim up pool and the close proximity to town and the beach. We were able to walk everywhere. The resort was also a perfect location for a multi family vacation.
Family pool right outside. All of Tamarindo right in walking distance! Best access to the Diría hotel and amazing beach in front of hotel just minutes away. Seemcurity, staffing and especially the surf coaches were amazing. I would 100% come back to this condo. Soft beds, good pillows, well stocked kitchen.
We booked this home for two families, eight people total and it was not a letdown!! Beautiful home that was well stocked throughout, this place was a hit with everyone. You have full access to the massive pool with a swim up bar, and the beach is just across the street. Plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance as well! Highly recommend!!!
Very clean and well appointed. Excellent location to the pool, beach, shops and restaurants. Check-in was a bit of a problem in that the link we got took us to a gate that was closed due to construction. We had directions to the office where they gave us an alternative entrance.

Wonderful property. Check in was a little difficult we booked transportation to the Dira resort months in advance then got a link a couple of days before the trip with coordinates to the condo. Our driver had a hard time finding the condo entrance. We only know a small amount of Spanish so I ended up just having to give the driver my phone to find the place. There isn’t a sign outside of the condo gate or anything so that was also confusing on if we were at the right place. Besides that everything was great. Clean, spacious, right by the pool and within walking distance of everything. Well stocked with things we needed. The kids loved it.
Loved the condo . It was only steps to the pool, and a couple min walk to beach. Just Steps to tons of restaurants, bars and shops!! Condo had everything we needed for cooking. Enough bath and beach towels for our party of 8! Whenever we were at the condo, we spent our time on the porch over looking the beautiful pool! We did have a problem with ants, but someone was out the next day to spray. They were gone for about a day and came back. We are in the jungle!! Only difference from website is they say 2 queen beds and they are full. No big deal. Would DEFINITELY go back to this unit. Security was very nice.you will need to buy more TP . Only gave 2 rolls per bathroom for 8 days and 8 people. Grocery store super close.
This condo was wonderful and convenient to downtown Tamarindo. It was very clean and the pool was nice. Communication was great. Would definitely recommend staying here.
This was a perfect fit for our family of 5. It was a beautiful condo with plenty of room for everyone and the proximity to the huge lagoon pool was awesome. We had a great time.
This was an amazing place to stay! It exceeded our expectations! Everything about it was perfect! The location, the amenities, the proximity to restaurants, the beach, markets, and shopping was perfect. Would recommend and would definitely stay here again!
This was a great stay and we loved the location of the condo. We had a few challenges (our key cards weren’t activated, the battery on the safe died) and communication with property manager took about 24 hours, which is generally fine (but was frustrating when our wallets and cash were trapped in the safe). Condo itself was amazing: plenty of bathrooms, bedrooms, and great AC. Generally, great stay and would stay again.
This was an excellent property with access to everything. It was a comfortable condo that had access to the beachfront resort amenities. Kelly and Olber at Bluezone Properties were so responsive and attentive. We were only in country for a short time and they scheduled many of our excursions and transportation. Everything was top notch.
