About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Entire villa in gated community, 2 Bd, 2 & 1/2 bath, pool, sandy beach.

I hope this is your base for all kinds of fun activities or R&R. This is our home away from home and I hope you view it as such. It's not a show home. Meant to be lived in. Lay on the couch after a fun day surfing or exploring.

This is a stand alone house, not a condo. No long hallways, no elevators. A fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, 2 bedroom, 2-1/2 bath. In Costa Rica. We call it a Villa and that includes your own private parking stall just a few steps away. If you don't feel like driving, no problem as everything is within walking distance and really is a better way to enjoy Tamarindo and the friendly locals. The incredible beach is just 850 meters away. Over half mile of adventure in the heart of town.

Important Update - we have installed a back-up water cistern. VERY important especially during high season. You still need to be conscious of water use.

Here are our house features...
Main Floor
•Fully equipped kitchen including coffee maker, blender, granite countertops, raised eating bar and a separate eating area with a table and four chairs
•Comfortably appointed living room, with a large sectional, entertainment system, flat screen TV with built in DVD and free wifi phone to make free calls to the USA
•Washer Dryer and sink in Laundry room
•Two piece bathroom on main
•Coat closet
•Expanded lanai by the entrance. Perfect for reading or watching the kids in the pool.

Upper Floor
•Master bedroom, with a queen bed, an en-suite with a shower, independent AC, ceiling fan, and a balcony that overlooks the pool
•Second bedroom, with a queen bed and a double bed plus a twin bunk bed above the double bed plus a full en-suite bathroom, independent AC.
The air conditioning system has independent controls for each floor as well as for each bedroom.
Furnishings, appliances, and other details are included.

We love having the pool right outside your door.

The villa is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a safe. Housekeeping is available on request.

What an amazing stay! This villa was the perfect home away from home for our family of three. It was comfortable, peaceful, and we loved being right in front of the pool. One of our favorite parts of each morning was waking up to the sound of the howler monkeys. Such a unique Costa Rican experience!During our stay, we explored Rio Celeste, went on a canopy tour, and enjoyed horseback riding through the beautiful countryside. Our absolute favorite adventure, though, was spending the day with some wonderful locals. We saw white-faced monkeys, countless crocodiles, and ended the day with an authentic Costa Rican meal that was hands down the best food we had during our trip.Thank you for helping make this vacation so memorable. We leave with wonderful memories and can’t wait to come back. Pura Vida!

This property is an absolute Gem ! The villa as advertised is close to town , beach , restaurants etc. Kathy was great to communicate with and always responded quickly to any questions I had . Sonia who runs Happy Trips arranged airport transfers and was also great at communicating back and forth .David who drove us both times was a good guy . On site Facundo was around everyday taking care of property and there to answer any questions or concerns . A genuinely nice young guy from Argentina who I chatted with in the mornings while having my coffee . The landscaping and pool make you feel you're in your own private resort. One of the most pleasant stays I've had at a rental for sure . I highly recommend and plan to return one day . Pura Vida

Casa Colorado was a very clean, lovely and comfortable 2 bedroom AC villa in Tamarindo! 15 minute walk to the beach! We were there late March early April when it was very hot. The AC and pool out our door was very much appreciated and used!Owner Kathy & Aaron left us with many good tips of what to do in the area and surrounding areas. The Panache Catamaran/ Snorkeling trip was one of the highlights of our stay, out of Flamingo beach. Our morning walks/swims on Tamarindo and nearby gorgeous and breezy beaches ( Langosta and Playa Grande) were our daily fitness routine. We didn’t rent a car but hired an Uber with Roger one day so we could explore/ horse ride/walk Brasilto, Conchal and Puerto Viejo beaches. Every beach has a few lunch spots. The food was always exceptional!This is a great VRBO condo in Tamarindo!

This was our 2nd visit to Kathy’s villa. We love everything about this location. No vehicle required for our group. Walking distance to groceries, restaurants and beach. The swimming pool, which is lovely and well maintained, was just a few steps from our veranda. The Villa is very well equipped with anything you will need. The host, Kathy, was always quick to respond before our trip. Sonia and Facundo, on site office and maintenance staff, are excellent and very helpful! Tamarindo is a fun location. Lots of lovely restaurants all along the massive beach and lots of shops around town. Will hopefully get back there some day! Cheers and Pura Vida!

Awesome place, great layout

We loved staying in this place - it was the best of the four places we stayed during our two weeks in Costa Rica. The house had a great layout and was well placed right across from the pool. There were several great restaurants within a couple blocks of the places.

Having the most gorgeous pool right in front was also a huge bonus, especially after a day of surfing or excursions. When we left after our 9-day stay, we felt as though we were leaving our home!

For 5 days this place was our base as we adventured Tamarindo and beyond with a rented golf cart. So much walking distance as well - beach, stores, restaurants and more.
