Look no further...Heidi's condo is perfect! My family & I (4 of us) just spent 10 days in Tamarindo. The condo is beautiful, is a terrific location, has everything you could need! We were all very comfortable spending the week in our 2nd home! It's within walking distance to everything(no car needed). Lots of wonderful restaurants very close, plus the beach is a 5 minute walk! You will NOT be disappointed!! Heidi sent us all kinds of useful/helpful info prior and during our trip! The weather was perfect! There is a guard at night and the place is totally secure, not that we found Tamardindo unsafe at all. Very friendly people, use Xplore for your tours - ask for EUGENIO for your guide(tell him Alice,Nancy,Courtney&Kevin sent you!) Get $25 massages on beach @ LaPalapa. Kahiki's is BEST breakfast ever! Nibbana's is 5 star restaurant w/ small price tag!! Don't miss it!! Do NOT go to El Pescador...tasteless food. Get nachos @ Witches Rock, pizza @ La Baula. Hang out @ Le Beach Club in bean bag chairs all day!! Skip the Crazy Monkey bar...crowd is like 18-25(unless you are that age, then go for sure!) Don't miss El Jardin de Eden(hard to find, near monkey bar on back road)-but it is AMAZING!! Slow down and relax...nothing happens fast in CR!! ATV's are an amazing 2 hours! Ziplinning is a must! Try surfing(a little hard!) Catch the fire show at night at any beach side restaurant! Go on sunset cruise. Skip Dona Lee's...wine was bad. Try Bamboo Sushi Club - ok food, amazing atmosphere!! Not to be missed! Above all, have FUN, relax and you must stay @ Heidi's condo...you will NOT be disappointed!! All the best of everything there!! Wireless internet also. Buy rum, etc @ grocery store & blend up your own drinks with fresh fruit(mango, bananas, payayas, etc). Do NOT buy the tacos on the beach - they are made from hotdogs!! haha. Tell Snookie we said hi @ Kahiki's!! She also works at Coppacabana @ night - great gal!! Once again, location is EVERYTHING in Tamarindo...other condos might be a buck or 2 cheaper but Heidi's is the best! Also try the BBQ place on the strip - amazing pulled pork sandwich. And $2 smoothies in the shopping center right next door to BBQ place - made with fresh fruit and milk!! Also, go have a cocktail & Diria Hotel...amazing place!! H A V E F U N!! We will be back next year for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Alice, Nancy, Courtney and Kevin!
