A trellis archway stretches the entire length of the home's entrance where, in the green season, morning glories cover the drive and invite you in. You will have a private code to enter the gates and the parking space in front of the house has enough parking for either one full sized / SUV car or equivalent.

There are loads of options of outdoor activities, yoga & health retreats, entertainment & nightlife! Here you'll be close to it all - but secluded enough for privacy and serenity. Playa Tamarindo beach is maybe a 5-10 minute walk from the property (depending on your mobility), and you can also walk to Playa Langosta beach in about 15-20 minutes.

There is parking space underneath the property - in front of the downstairs glass doors - and a pool that is shared with guests of the casistas only. The downstairs of El Castillo is not accessible to guests. It is for storage supplies. Our property manager tries to greet you upon arrival, if possible. She is always available through the app to answer questions. The property is in a bustling beach neighborhood - on a street with primarily other hotels / guest accommodations. It is a short walking distance to the beach and the heart of town with many shops, restaurants, stores, grocery stores, pharmacy, etc. to choose from. No car needed! Walking distance to everything town center. If you like, you can rent a bike, golf cart, or ATVs just around the corner! If you do rent any of these or a car, we have a gate to the property and enough parking for two cars plus either one golf cart or two motorcycles. Most of the streets are unpaved and, in the high season, it's harder to find parking around town. We suggest walking or golf cart rental in Tamarindo and a car for excursions. Monkeys (and sometimes Iguanas and occasionally other animals) will often enjoy the Monkey Walk leading to the property, hence the name! They are one of the many attractions of Costa Rica, and you may hear them from time to time outside of the window. As is Tamarindo, there are critters and it's part of the way of life here. Tamarindo also experiences brief power outages regularly. As vibrant as Tamarindo is, we do have quiet time between 11 am and 7 pm so neighbors can enjoy their rest. We have a pack and play / crib in storage - please request in advance so we can set it out for you at check-in time. The whole property is gated, but the pool does not have a separate gate. Please use with caution. Please be sure to read / follow the house rules regarding pool use. Rooftop access to main house is NOT AVAILABLE at this time. Do not attempt to access the roof.</p>
