Our group booked the entire Las Mareas Villas through Stay in Tamarindo () for the week of April 22-29, 2017, and everything about our stay – from beginning to end – was exceptional. We all wish we were still there.

Jen of Stay in Tamarindo helped with the booking arrangements and answered all of our many questions with friendly and helpful information. Stay in Tamarindo even arranged for shuttles from and back to the airport in Liberia (Edwin supervised the shuttles and made everyone feel welcome and comfortable). Upon arrival, the Villas were clean and ready for us, and Adriana of Stay in Tamarindo helped us get settled in and took care of everything we needed.

Las Mareas Villas are located on the hillside overlooking the Pacific Coast in Tamarindo. The views are spectacular! The individual Villas have identical floorplans and are new (constructed in 2013), with all modern appliances (including washer/dryer) and furniture. The beds are very comfortable. Everything is well-maintained. The Villas were cleaned regularly during our stay. The pool at Las Mareas got a lot of use by our group and is in a beautiful setting.

Cristina of Stay in Tamarindo provided Concierge Services for our entire group. She arranged tours, transportation, answered questions, offered advice, and generally made our week better. We visited beaches, bars, Rincón de la Vieja National Park (zip-lining, horseback riding, tubing, hot springs), went scuba diving, and took a Safari Boat Tour with up-close encounters with crocodiles and monkeys. Whatever you want to do or see in Guanacaste can be arranged through Cris.

But our favorite was probably the Sunset Sailing Cruise onboard an 82-foot schooner that Cris booked for us. Wow! Live music (thanks Max!) and truly gourmet food, not to mention snorkeling, dancing on the deck, and an open bar. And, Pangas Beach Club is right at the bottom of the hill for dining and fun all week. Our sincere thanks to all.

We loved our villa in the shade overlooking the Pacific Ocean.!
Staff was friendly and helpful. Weather was perfect. Location is close to town within walking deistance but quiet and private. We highly recommend the Villas at El Tesoro

We loved our stay. The unit was perfect for us. Clean and new and stylish with the best view imaginable. It was so nice to look out over the river and the ocean and see no other buildings but yet be 2 minutes from town. We would stay in this unit again in a second and highly recommend it. The staff was so helpful and kind and went to great lengths to make our stay the best it could be.

We had a great time stay at Las Mareas Villa 6. The staff was super accommodating and the Villa itself was beautiful. Our group of 7 fit perfectly in the 3 bedroom town home. The pool and BBQ were in perfect distance from the rental and we grilled two nights during out stay. The views from the condo are amazing. The walk to town was easy. There is a large hill coming back to the condo, but its not that bad :) Overall, this is a great place to stay, I highly recommend it, and will hopefully be back in the future!

Our vacation rental went fabulously. We had the one of the best times I've had in a long time. We also were treated extremely by the entire vaction team. Lucas and Cristina went above and beyond with their help to make our stay wonderful. She was able to schedule every excursion for us, she was had all the busses ready and available in a timely manner, she was energetic and happy to help us. 5 Stars to her and Lucas.

For some constructive feedback, we had a fantastic time on the horse back riding tour. I would recommend that you recommend to customers to get golf carts or ATVs to have while you're there. The catamaran tour was the least pleasant thing we did. It was good, but the crew was not pleasant and very helpful. I would recommend going with a different catamaran tour company in the future. The place was clean and people were friendly. One other thing would be to make sure the bus driver who picks us UP from the airport to the villas stops at a megamart or some kind of grocery store before going back to the house. It would have been great to grab snacks and things prior to doing that.

ALL in ALL it was fantastic and I cannot thank you guys enough.

Clean unit, location as described, and very helpful staff. Furnishings very basic, and coffee maker non-functional. Long way up the hill from the beach. Would stay there again.

Overall it was a wonderful experience. There is no better staff in all of Costa Rica than that of Las Mareas Villas as they helped us with accommodations, activities, and any additional items we needed. Highly recommend

We loved our stay at Villa #6. Everything was exactly as described. The villa was beautiful with high end finishes and everything you could want in a kitchen. The pool was a great way to unwind at the end of the day. The concierge was great in helping book surf lessons and even a golf cart! (The hill is no joke, especially during the heat of the day) The town of Tamarindo was so quaint and as a group of women, we always felt safe. The villa was convienent to everything and I hope to come back to stay again some day! Thank you for a great vacation!

We rented two units in the same property. Had water issues in both (hot & cold)
Staff was also hot & cold in their responses.
Pool although lovely had to be shared with 4 other properties. Four recliners for 6 families
doesn't work.

Our group had an awesome stay in villas 5 and 6. Both were very spacious, clean and well appointed. Fantastic views from the balconies. Exactly as advertised.

The management was very responsive and professional.

The only downside is the walk up and down the hill from the villas to the town. The hill is VERY steep, but once you are at the bottom you are a short walk from all the attractions Tamarindo has to offer.

Highly recommend.

The Las Mareas villas were a perfect place to stay for all 39 of our wedding guests! Our ceremony was held down the road from the villas at the Pangas Beach Club and so the accommodations were convenient for our guests. The villa layouts allow for people to spend time together in the kitchen and living room, but also get some private time in separate bedrooms with their own bathroom. The villas are beautifully furnished, very clean, and fully stocked with amenities. The beach and estuary is within walking distance, but you do have to walk about 450m down a semi-steep hill (so walking back up a semi-steep hill back to the villa). Our guests could also hang out by the pool and spend time getting to know each other! The property managers were friendly, fun, easy to communicate with and provided services (transportation, catering, etc) in English. They helped us organize guest check-in/-out since everyone was arriving and leaving at different times. We definitely recommend Las Mareas for a vacation (and wedding weekend) stay!

The duplex was upscale, has incredbile views, extremely secure, the rooms were spacious each with a ensuite bathroom, and each unit has 3 bedrooms. The air conditioning was excellent. 2 units were perfect for 12 people (3 familes of 4 each each).
The location provides easy access to downtown Tamarindo and the beach. The most valuable part of the rental was the conceirge services provided by Las Mareas. They pre-arranged surfboard rentals, hiking, ziplining, going to a rodeo, spa treatments, a 50th brithday cake delivered to the restaurant, etc.
The only downside to Las Mareas was the large hill you had to hike up and down to get into town or the beach. A small inconvenience for our group but could be a big issue for some people.

These villas are in a wonderful location, easy access to the beach yet far enough away to feel safe with the gated communtity. Pangas Beach club has fantastic food and drinks.
