This place was everything I wanted in a location for my first getaway in 3 years. The pool and views of the sunset every night were everything you could have asked for and more. The team we were in contact with helped every time we needed an answer on something, especially Marcelo our concierge. Strongly recommend if you are taking a tour anywhere you request for our guide Daniel, as he was spectacular. This was the perfect location to stay if you don’t want the hustle and bustle of a tourist place like Tamarindo, but we were close enough to visit over there as well which was great. I think this may become a yearly retreat for us going forward.

Response From: Grande Vacation Rentals

Hi Rob. What a great review! I'm so happy you enjoyed Casa Tinto. The secluded location and views are what makes this house special. Marcelo is great and glad he was able to help with everything you needed. We look forward to having you as our guest again in the future! -KC

Magnificent place overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Sunsets by the infinity pool are incredible! Close to great beaches, restaurants and short drive to Tamarindo & Playa Flamingo.

We had 8 people in our group and it was absolutely perfect !!

Home is amazing, view is better than expected. It fits perfectly for two families. Location is great, close to Playa Grande where you can walk along the beach for miles. There is a very nice restaurant close by, open from breakfast to dinner. You need a 4wheel drive car to go around but it worth to spend time driving to Volcanoes area

Response From: Grande Vacation Rentals

Thank you for the great review! Morning walks on Playa Grande are something my family enjoys too! We look forward to having you as our guest soon! -KC

Casa Tinto is the perfect setup— modern, luxurious, and spacious! My group of six (6) never felt cramped and slept comfortably. The views are stunning. The house overlooks lush treetops and the beautiful Pacific. We especially enjoyed spending our mornings by the pool and outdoor kitchen area, listening to the waves crash and the whooping barks of the howlers. Several mornings we had a visit from Mia—our new friend and neighbor’s dog that we enjoyed so, so much.

The location is spot on! There are a handful of great eateries to choose from, as well as beaches and neighboring towns to explore. We loved the fresh juices at Pots n Bowls, the pizza at El Huertos and the appetizers at Manguito. We also enjoyed body surfing at Grande and our beach trip to Conchal.

Concierge was very helpful and accommodating. They even had cold, filtered water upon arrival for us, along with coffee fully stocked. These touches were much appreciated!

Overall, a positive experience. I could keep going on!

Response From: Grande Vacation Rentals

I'm incredibly happy to hear you and your family had a great experience at Casa Tinto! The view and outdoor area are fantastic and are some of the best features of the home. We appreciate the comments and tips to help make our service even better for the next guests. Hope to see you back here again soon! -KC

Wow! What a stunning place. The view was spectacular, the place was beautifully laid out with simple yet stylish furnishings, and the pool was to die for. We were a group of 9 and it never felt cramped. I asked our group if we could come up with any complaints of the place and we truly couldn’t. Hopefully we’ll come back.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The view was amazing! The house was very clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was really well stocked. We loved relaxing in the pool (which is bigger than it looks in the pictures) and the outdoor space. There are two en suite bedrooms on each side of the house, so there was plenty of privacy for everyone. Beds were comfortable. The pictures are accurate (some things like the computer/desk, gaming chair, and some of the other personal things in the bedroom pictures are not there, which was good).
Marcelo, the concierge, arranged our airport transfers and met us at check in to go over things. He had our rental car brought to the house shortly after we arrived (reserve in advance), which was really nice and easy after a long day of travel (you do need AWD, as you do for much of Costa Rica). He quickly answered any questions we had. Being one of, if not the first renters, there were a few small things to work out, but he resolved things pretty quickly. Marcelo will help arrange activities. We really enjoyed the surf lessons with Onda (Coki and Javi) right down the street. The lovely uncrowded beach is only about three minutes by car. Keith was quick to respond when looking to book.
Great location and felt safe. It is not a far drive to Playa Flamingo (which we really enjoyed) and Tamarindo (which is a little more touristy, but also fun). Both restaurants down the hill from the house were great (El'Huerto and Pots and Bowls).
We would stay here again.
