Casa Howler

Casa Howler — Five Stars We just wrapped up a weeklong stay at Casa Howler, and it was nothing short of magical. Our group was four couples on a parents-only getaway, and this place delivered on every front. The location is ideal, in a gated community that’s close enough to town to feel convenient without sacrificing privacy. We walked occasionally, but mostly got around via golf carts that were pre-delivered right to the property, which made exploring Tamarindo effortless and fun. The house itself looked exactly like the photos and felt very high-end. It’s beautifully constructed, impeccably clean, and genuinely spacious for a group of eight. The open-concept layout is one of its best features: the kitchen and living area flow seamlessly into the outdoor lounge and pool, so everyone could be together without feeling on top of each other. It struck the perfect balance between communal and comfortable. Each couple also had their own king bedroom with a private en suite bathroom and generous closet space, so there was plenty of room to retreat and recharge. One honest note: all four beds are on the firmer side. It took a night or two to adjust, but it was a minor trade-off for an otherwise exceptional space. Our private maid, Pamela, was an absolute gem. She was warm and unobtrusive, kept the house spotless, and prepared delicious food throughout our stay, a genuine highlight of the trip. We also took advantage of the pre-arrival grocery service through Pangas, which we’d strongly recommend. We intentionally kept our order modest, yet more food than expected arrived, we assume because they source whatever deals are available from local markets with the budget you provide. We actually got through most of the food and whatever you don’t finish will be offered to the workers so it doesn’t go to waste. The concierge, Adriana, was responsive and helpful during the planning process, which made the lead-up to the trip smooth and stress-free. Beyond the house itself, the surrounding area is wonderful. We spent a day at the private Langosta Beach Club, which is included in the Air Bnb package and it was a highlight — beautiful pool, great beach access, and we rented a cabana for the day and fully committed to doing absolutely nothing. Highly recommend. The restaurant scene in town is also excellent, with plenty of variety to choose from. The spots we visited had great food, cool vibes, and that laid-back coastal charm that makes Tamarindo so appealing. There are also some lovely shops worth browsing if you’re after souvenirs or local finds. Overall, Casa Howler is an outstanding choice especially for the value. The space is spectacular, the location is unbeatable, and it gave us the best of both worlds: the energy of a fun beach town and the privacy of our own little retreat. We’d come back in a heartbeat!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
4 couples on a parents-only trip—Casa Howler delivered on every front. In a gated community close to town, we got around via pre-delivered golf carts, making Tamarindo effortless to explore.
The house matched the photos: high-end, spotless, and spacious for eight. The open-concept kitchen, living area, and pool flowed seamlessly, communal but never cramped. Each couple had a king bedroom and private en suite. Only note: the beds are quite firm and take a night or two to adjust.
Pamela, our private maid, was warm, unobtrusive, kept the house spotless, and cooked delicious food. The pre-arrival Pangas grocery service is a must—we ordered modestly and received plenty. Concierge Adriana made planning smooth and stress-free.
Langosta Beach Club (included!) was a highlight—beautiful pool, great beach, and a full cabana day well spent. Town has excellent restaurants, great vibes, and lovely shops.
Spectacular space, unbeatable location and price! We’d return in a heartbeat!​​​​

Perfect place in Tamarindo for a big (fun!) group. Definitely rent the golf carts -- they are perfect for getting to the beach and back. The beach club we had access to was the best on the beach.

Sara - Posted: 3/25/2026

We truly enjoyed our stay at Casa Howler. The team (Adriana and Pamela) were both great and very helpful. The massages on the pool deck are a must and booked directly by Adriana for our convenience! We walked to the beach and restaurants with no problems! Thank you for a great stay in Tamarindo!

Dennis - Posted: 3/9/2026

This is a very comfortable property. We loved its proximity to town. Renting golf carts is a must. The added benefit of concierge service was amazing. Our concierge Adriana was fabulous. And the daily breakfast and light housekeeping made our stay a true vacation.

Everything was perfect!

Everything about the experience was excellent. The property is beautiful (exactly as depicted). Very clean, spacious and modern. The concierge assisted us in planning some great adventures. The daily breakfast prep was a nice touch as well. We would definitely return in the future.

Bradley - Posted: 8/17/2025

We stayed at Casa Howler with our two children and another family with a child (all under 5). This house could easily fit another couple with a young child. First, Adriana was our concierge and was beyond helpful and responsive. She helped arrange transport, a spa day and an excursion that was age appropriate for our littles. She also got us in touch with a private chef that came in to make us dinner- don’t miss this! Pamela was our housekeeper who also made breakfast, lunch and snacks. She was so gracious and unimposing. The house has all the amenities you can think of and is brand new. It’s a quick walk into town- exactly .5 miles and is near a grocery store and an awesome food truck park. It also includes access to a beach club that has a small gym - make a reservation for the gym as it is very busy and doesn’t open till 8. We will absolutely be back!

Taylor - Posted: 8/13/2025

Beautiful house near downtown Tamarindo and the beaches in that area. Excellent house staff and Adriana took care of all of our needs. It was a great trip. I highly recommend staying at Casa Howler!

Rachel - Posted: 8/6/2025

Thank you, Rachel, for your lovely review! We're happy to hear you enjoyed the location and that Adriana and our staff took great care of you. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Casa Howler soon!

We had an amazing time just hanging out by the pool. Tamarindo is a beautiful place. Thank you Adriana for all your help. Highly recommended!

Cami - Posted: 7/22/2025

The home was exactly what we wanted and needed and did not disappoint! Kitchen was well equipped. Adriana was very helpful and responsive without being overbearing. Pamela was a delight and took great care of the home. Highly recommend this listing.

Jenn - Posted: 7/12/2025

We recently stayed at Casa Howler in June and had an amazing experience! Once we drove up, Adriana (the property manager) met us at the house to show us around and explain the amenities which was such a warm welcome! The house is stunning and is well-stocked! We were able to have all our breakfasts and dinners at the house with all the necessary kitchen accessories available! There were plenty of rooms and bathrooms for everyone in our party of 6 to be comfortable! Pamela was a gem! She was so pleasant and helped keep the house clean and even made an amazing Costa Rican breakfast for us one day! This was such a great find and I would love to visit again!

Deana - Posted: 7/7/2025

The Casa Howler house was amazing - absolutely stunning and very spacious! The layout was perfect for our 2 families (4 adults and 3 teen boys) with 2 bedrooms in the house for the teens and detached upper level and lower level units for the adults. Casa Howler was clean, well stocked and had comfortable beds. The pool and back patio were a hit as well! And, the service was equally amazing! Adriana was extremely responsive and accommodating, as was Pamela who would have cleaned the house, cooked breakfast/made drinks and even would have done laundry for us every day but unfortunately we figured that out toward the end of our stay. I highly recommend you stay at Casa Howler if your traveling to Tamarindo.

Alicia - Posted: 6/28/2025

First off the house was spacious and very comfortable. They outdoor casitas were fun for our teenagers, however they were hard to understand the locks and made us parents a little uneasy at first until Adriana sent a video on how to work them from the inside. They are doing a ton of construction in tamarindo for houses and resorts, and our location seemed to be on the middle of it, but you could hear nothing from inside the house and even being outside the noise was not annoying and it was not an eye sore. The vegetation cut down the noise and the site on the construction. Pamela was our chef and house cleaner. She doesn’t speak any English, but she was fantastic. Google helps those conversations. For those of you thinking tamarindo is secluded and not touristy—not the case. It was busy and it’s expensive. We took complete advantage of the beach club that comes with the rental of the house and it was great. Beautiful and the beach was never busy or crowded to feel like we were on top of others. Overall it was a great vacation.

Cara - Posted: 6/21/2025

The house was beautiful and very clean! Pamela and Adriana were helpful and made our stay amazing. Thank you!

Lewis - Posted: 6/19/2025

Everything was as described. I’m glad we rented a vehicle. The walk to town was much farther than described on a dirt road. I would not have liked to walk it in the humidity. The AC unit in casita 1 (first floor) went out and Adriana was super responsive and offered to get it fixed in 30 minutes. The staff made breakfast every morning with the groceries provided. It was a great experience!

Sondra - Posted: 5/21/2025

Our stay was amazing! The house was perfectly set up for a couple's trip, with each room being essentially a master suite. Adriana and Pamela were lovely and accommodating. Would book with Stay in Tamarindo again!

Savannah - Posted: 5/1/2025

Wonderful stay, everything was perfect - can’t wait to return! Thank you Adriana, Pamela and team!

Robin - Posted: 4/28/2025

Beautiful place! Worked out exceptionally well for us. We would definitely come back and stay in the exact same house. Wonderful!

Scott - Posted: 4/22/2025

The entire experience was very positive for our group. Adriana was great to deal with and helped with all of our early booking questions and then additional help with later questions as we approached our stay. The house was fantastic in all area's and as described in the listing. All in all we had a great week, loved the location, the staff and the amazing breakfast we had each morning. Thanks for everything!!

Daniel - Posted: 4/15/2025

The home had the best location and just walking distance to the beach. Adriana was extremely helpful, friendly and helped us organized our trip. Would definitely stay again!

Brent - Posted: 4/10/2025

This home is every bit as amazing as it looks in the photos. Can’t recommend the location enough either as it was so convenient and so close to town and the beach. Hands down to our house concierge Adriana - thank you so much for the great service and quick responses! We had the best time.

Caitlin - Posted: 2/21/2025

Perfect place for a family vacation. The home was immaculate and exceeded all my expectations!!

Amy - Posted: 1/30/2025

Wow, what an incredible stay! This home exceeded all expectations. The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we could need. The host was exceptionally friendly and responsive, making check-in and communication a breeze. The location was perfect—close to everything but still peaceful and quiet at night. Little touches, like local recommendations, made it feel extra special. I can’t recommend this place enough and will absolutely stay here again when I’m back in town!

Amanda - Posted: 1/23/2025

This is an amazing home with beautiful finishes. The pool is really nice too and the beach and downtown is just minutes away. The professionalism and attention to detail exceeded our expectations, thank you Adriana for hosting us!

James - Posted: 1/22/2025

Wonderful stay at Casa Howler! Amazing property, wonderful staff and fantastic vacation.

Elizabeth - Posted: 12/26/2024

La casa esta muy bonita y con espacios abiertos muy padres y acorde a las fotos. Sin embargo por las fechas no se puede tener las puertas abiertas a la terraza por los insectos.
La cocina esta muy bien equipada.

La recomiendo ampliamente por las amenidades y la naturaleza que te rodea.
Los guardias del condominio muy amables y siempre muy atentos.
Adriana estuvo siempre muy al pendiente y fue muy amable toda nuestra estancia.
En resumen disfrutamos de una gran vacación !!

José Alberto - Posted: 12/26/2024

The house was just as pictured! Very comfortable and clean. Adriana did a great job answering all of our questions . She assisted with transfers, groceries, excursions and last minute questions. Thank you for hosting us!

Timothy - Posted: 12/14/2024

I had an exceptional stay at this house! The 5-star experience was made even more memorable by our outstanding concierge Adriana. Her impeccable service ensured that we had a seamless and delightful time, from arranging incredible tours to making every aspect of our stay easy and enjoyable. She truly went above and beyond, making our trip unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Angel - Posted: 10/11/2024

Beautiful vacation home. Love the modern esthetics. Immaculate cleanliness. Adraina was a great host. Most helpful with providing accommodations during our booking, check-in, our stay, and following up with our satisfaction. Would definitely recommend to anyone staying in Tamarindo.

Brittany - Posted: 9/16/2024

This house is incredible. It has everything and more that one could want. We went with our kids and it was perfect for a family. The location is fantastic. It is clean and everyone is so kind. We want to go back!

Anonymous U from Denver - Posted: 9/3/2024

This home is exactly as described and looks even more beautiful in person! I felt at home during my stay! Location was perfect! Close proximity to restaurants and beach!

Kenia - Posted: 9/3/2024

This Airbnb was absolutely amazing! Exactly as described and looks even better than the pictures! I will definitely be coming back.

Kenia - Posted: 9/1/2024

We had the time of our lives staying at Casa Howler! The property is stunning and so well taken care of! It is the perfect place to stay as a couple for a private, calm experience but also doubles as an amazing option for a larger group of family/friends with the casitas on the property as well! The vibe and atmosphere is exactly what you want in a little beach town and it is close enough to everything to be able to walk just about anywhere you'd like to go! They also make checking in and out so easy and are always there to assist if you need it! We will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

Veronica - Posted: 8/21/2024

This was our first trip to Costa Rica. We traveled with our children and parents. The house was much more than we expected, incredibly clean and comfortable. In addition to that, we had Adriana, she was amazing and arranged for our transportation, helped us grocery prestocking and assisted with the best activities in Tamarinda. She checked in on us to make sure everyone was well and had everything needed and she was a big factor in how wonderful our vacation turned out. We will definitely be returning and will rent this home again. If you do, will not be disappointed.

Itay - Posted: 8/15/2024

Wonderful family accommodations.

Daniel - Posted: 8/12/2024

This house was perfect and we had everything we needed for our stay, it was better than the pictures. Adriana made everything easy and smooth and we are so thankful for her assistance during our time in Tamarindo. We have highly recommend booking this house and we look forward to come back soon.

Laquiya - Posted: 8/11/2024

We enjoyed our stay in Tamara, very much. The house was great. The location was excellent, although I would recommend renting a golf cart to get around into town a little far, especially at night. The people of Costa Rica are the best, so friendly and welcoming. We felt very safe the restaurants are incredible.

Michael - Posted: 8/10/2024

We spent a week at Casa Howler in Tamarindo through Stay in Tamarindo. The House was exceptional, better than advertised. It was spacious, well-maintained, and had everything you would need. Adriana immediately took care of any minor issues we had. She was responsive and checked in with us throughout the trip. We also arranged a last-minute zip-lining trip and golf cart rentals through Adriana. I highly recommend Tamarindo, Casa Howler, Stay in Tamarindo, and Adriana!

Andrew - Posted: 7/15/2024

House was clean, beautiful and a wonderful location. Everyone was super helpful and quick to respond. We will be coming back!!

Yael - Posted: 6/17/2024

This was a great place to stay in Tamarindo. Very comfortable and spacious. Great pool. Comfortable beds and clean bathrooms. Many AC units and fans, we felt very cool in the heat. There was a storm and we lost power in two of the rooms, we contacted the host and she immediately sent two maintenance workers who fixed the problem. We appreciated the quick responses and helping us with all we needed. Walkable but driving to the beach is probably best, it can get very dark at night. It was a bit noisy in the area because of some construction going on. Still, the location is great and is close to everything. Overall a great experience and would consider staying again my next time in Tamarindo.

Farris - Posted: 6/1/2024

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Howler! Adriana was awesome and helped us with anything we needed. She was very quick to respond to all our messages. We had a wonderful experience and will be back!

Tom - Posted: 5/28/2024

Beautiful airbnb! It was even better than the pictures and housed all 8 of us easily. Adriana was soooo helpful and responsive. Ask her to book you a sunset catamaran cruise — it was incredible! The airbnb kitchen is stocked with every gadget you could ever need, including a bunch of yeti mugs and an air fryer. We had such a great time!

Grace - Posted: 5/6/2024

We have had a wonderful stay at Casa Howler. The house had everything we needed and more!

Mary - Posted: 4/7/2024

Fantastic!

Sandra - Posted: 4/7/2024

Cannot say enough great things about Casa Howler. We were four adults and four children. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything (air fryer, Nespresso, coffee maker, toaster, toaster oven, Tupperware, full knife block, glasses for EVERY beverage imaginable [champagne, red wine, white wine, margaritas, beer, high ball, scotch, and drinking water] only missing a potato/carrot peeler…and I’m sure they’ll add that!). Built-in gas grill with out door wine fridge. PLENTY of towels (bath, pool, and beach for every person!). Two FULL bedroom in the side house with separate A/C each that cool quickly and offer amazing views. Regular house hold two bedrooms each with separate A/C. 100% privacy. Can’t see another person. 100% security and safety (with the garage door and locked gate access there was NEVER a concern). Short walk or golf cart ride to the main strip. Attentive and responsive concierge service that was second to none. Booked yoga session at the house and catamaran (Manta Ray) out of Flamingo beach that I would recommend. Full laundry (bring or buy detergent). Great closets. WiFi throughout property. Amazing in-ground pool with water feature and outdoor shower. Stop any hesitation now and book!!!

Lance - Posted: 4/7/2024

Our family spent a week at this lovely house during Spring Break vacation. The house has 4 lovely bedroom suites - our grandsons thoroughly enjoy having their own separate quarters! The Kitchen was exceptionally well equipped! The pool area was perfect for spending time at during the course of the day. The development was a short distance from the town center and we rented a Golf Cart which was a great way to go back and forth! I would definitely recommend this property to extended families or multiple couples visiting this area!

Verified traveler - Posted: 4/7/2024

This house was absolutely perfect for our trip. It is very spacious, great decoration and it has many amenities.

Jackie - Posted: 3/11/2024

La villa est idéalement situé à l'écart de l'agitation de Tamatindo mais demeure hyper accessible et centrale. Le setup est parfait pour 2-3 familles avec les chambres dans des appartements séparés. Ceci permet de pouvoir relaxé le matin chacun dans son espace. Nous avons fait 3-4 BBQ et profité de la piscine abondamment.

Maxime - Posted: 3/5/2024

Extremely professionally managed property that is equipped to a very high level way beyond many other similar priced properties. The house is well designed with lovely high ceilings and great layout and spacious feel. Development is still under construction, so some daytime building works nearby which has some impact but not too bad.

Justin - Posted: 1/8/2024

Great spot! Brand new and close to the town Adrianna and Cris are the best in the biz. I wish they were available where ever I travel. Super responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful.

Michael - Posted: 12/19/2023

Cristina and Adriana were extremely responsive and accommodating! The directions were clear and they had a ton of information on tours, local eats, and spots to check out. The place was absolutely gorgeous and extremely clean. It is exactly like the pictures and not that far from town. The bedrooms were large, the bathrooms were spotless and the pool and outdoor area is awesome for relaxing. I would like to say your communication was awesome and the most responsive I have experienced. The concierge service was top notch and the house itself was gorgeous. The well equipped kitchen was absolutely a dream as well. I would highly recommend your spot to stay!

Nathan - Posted: 9/12/2023

What a beautiful home! Everything was exactly as described in the listing and we would stay here again and again! I’m pretty particular about cleanliness and this home exceeded my expectations. A great layout for giving everyone their own space. The only negative would be the lack of internet service during our stay making watching TV not possible due to all TV’s being “smart TV’s “ only accessible through WiFi service. Since it rained heavily the first few days it made for very quiet evenings with no service. I would most definitely suggest renting a golf cart for trips into town. It wasn’t very far away but the roads were dirt and very very dark at night. The gentlemen that provided gate security were so friendly and helpful. If possible, remember them with a pizza or snacks as they work long hours. Do not hesitate in doing business with Stay in Tamarindo!

Christy - Posted: 8/28/2023

Magnifique villa! L'ambiance était très agréable, les chambres spacieuses et confortables et la cour intérieure est parfaite pour se détendre.

Marie-Claude - Posted: 7/28/2023

Amazing experience and stay in Tamarindo Park. The home is incredible, you never want to leave. Perfect location. Minutes away from main strip and restaurants.
Cris was an amazing host. Thanks for everything!
Look forward to visiting again =)

Taher - Posted: 5/6/2023

Beautiful new home, fun place to stay with a family group. Owners were very accommodating. The home and location felt safe and the tall garage was a plus for us as we had a van to park.
