Summary: Everything about this house is practically perfect. From the layout, the views to the amenities. Just picture yourself drinking coffee on the roof top, eating fresh mangos and eggs looking out the picture window in the kitchen and spending the day relaxing in the beautifully temperate pool. You won’t have a problem finding what you need in a cabinet or what switch does what, everything is labeled. Kitchen is fully stocked with everything you may need. Bed was comfortable with nice bed spreads. House hosts were always available to answer any questions, even later in the evening. As other reviews mentioned we went to hotel Playa Negra two times for dinner about 5 mins in the car, nice place close by that you can feel safe at. Also went to Gregorio’s, also 5 mins away, which we highly recommend for good local cuisine at very reasonable prices and the owner was awesome. Be prepared to pay for parking 2,000 colones (4) anywhere near a tourist spot. My wife and I went for her birthday and our anniversary, we plan on coming back with our family of 12 soon! Thanks again!!

Summary: We have had the privilege to travel to a lot of fun vacation spots and stay in some nice houses, but Castillo Del Mar blows the rest away! Our first trip to Costa Rica could not have been better. Family of five with three teenagers.It didn't seem possible but the property truly is better than advertised. The views are amazing, especially from the roof top with its 360 degree views of ocean, mountains and forest. From the house we saw horses, monkeys, iguanas and all kinds of awesome birds.The house is appointed with everything you will need. Very spacious. Extremely clean. The A/C was great. Very comfortable beds. Fast, reliable internet. Very safe neighborhood. The pool was very clean and nice. You will not believe how nice the shaded rooftop is! It's just a beautifully designed, comfortable house. The house location is remote and very quiet, very few tourists (which we wanted and loved). There are several good restaurants and coffee shops within a 10 minute drive.The beach in front of the house is rocky but when the tide goes out this provides hours of tidal pool exploring fun. Be sure you take snorkel gear, it's a blast here! You can walk 10 minutes (or shorter drive) to a traditional "sandy" beach with no rocks. The communication by Jarrod and team was so helpful throughout. They kindly answered my many questions pre-trip and quickly responded with questions/needs during the trip. Outstanding service!! Truly paradise. We cannot wait to return!

Summary: This property exceeded our expectations and is even better than the pictures portray! Communication throughout the process was great and Jarrod was very responsive. The property itself is a very high standard, very clean, quality furnishings and linens, comfortable beds, and very-well equipped kitchen. The location is spectacular with stunning views and walking distance to the small, quiet beach. The grounds are well maintained. We saw monkeys and iguanas in the front yard, and loved the mango and coconut trees. The pool was spotlessly clean, and the house felt safe. The restaurants recommended were awesome. If you are at all hesitant to book, just do it. You won’t be disappointed. Our only regret was wishing we could have stayed longer.

Summary: Absolutely gorgeous home and heavenly location. The house was spotless and very well appointed with everything we needed. Jarod, Meaghan and PJ were excellent hosts, most helpful and prompt in answering all our questions and taking care of our needs which included a poolside couples massage which I would highly recommend. One of the best vacations of our lives thanks in large part to Castillo del Mar, the absolutely perfect weather for 14 days and our excellent hosts.

Summary: According to our daughter - better than advertised. Because of some flight issues, we were delayed a day but Jarrod was very helpful in getting my daughter and sil settled in. The propery was gorgeous and the top deck was great for meals - when it wasn't too windy but perfect for just sitting and watching the ocean either way. Almost stayed at an all inclusive in Tamarindo but glad we didn't. Our private pool was a great centerpiece. Miss it already.

Summary: This property was absolutely amazing to stay in! The location is perfect, right by Playa Negra beach and a quick drive away to playa Avellanas. The house it’s self was amazing and the views of the ocean from every level of the property are spectacular. The rooftop was the perfect place to watch the gorgeous sunsets. Also Meaghan and Jarrod were both amazing as well, very helpful with connecting us to the right people for all of our activity inquires and very informational about stuff to do around the area! And also gave such detail directions to and from the house. Overall 1000/10 would recommend staying at Castillo Del Mar!

Summary: This property was as amazing as advertised. We travelled with two families, 4 adults and 4 children (ages 10, 12x2 and 14) and everyone had a phenomenal time with the property and the area. First off, the pictures don't do the property justice. The bedrooms are all very comfortable, the tv room (though you won't use it much) is very relaxed and the kitchen/dining areas are spectacular. We used the very well organized and labelled kitchen to sear and serve the yellowfin tuna we caught one day on a fishing expedition. Our son liked to sit on the window bench at the kitchen table to alternate between eating and gazing out across the pool, yard and across the ocean to the horizon. There are so many wonderful outdoor spaces, that even with spending a week there, we were unable to use them all. The second level outdoor table was perfect for morning coffee while looking out at the Pacific and allowed us to see whales out on the horizon on two different occasions. The roof patio is spectacular for spending time on the hammock, getting massages or gazing up at uncountable stars over a couple glasses of wine. We were around for New Years and viewed the Tamarindo fireworks kick-off at midnight from up on top of the house. The flora and fauna out back of the house also added to the magical experience. There's at least one 2 ft iguana that liked to sun between the amazing cacti out on the cliff over the ocean. We enjoyed daily walks along the rocky shore down to Playa Negra's Sandy Beach for our kids to hurl themselves into the surf. Also, Jarrod was very prompt and responsive to all of our questions about the area and helping locate excursions. We will go back!

Summary: Our stay at Castillo Del Mar was absolutely spectacular. The view was breathtaking, easy access to the beach and incredible star gazing at night. The house came with all the amenities one needs for a vacation. Communication with the property management was timely and they were extremely helpful. I would highly recommend and will definitely be back!
