Compass House - Amazing Stay

Absolutely gorgeous, large, well finished house. Great floor plan for entertaining and hosting the wedding we were at. The pool is perfect and has amazing views of the coast. The outdoor kitchen was great as we didn’t ever want to leave the view and the pizza oven is just a huge bonus. Will be back for sure. The hosts were incredibly willing to make sure our stay was as good as it can get as well

Magical week in Tamarindo

Property was as advertised, you tube videos were spot on. Great views of Tamarindo beach from the pool area, the pool was awesome. Loved the outside area, we had breakfast there every morning. There was a guard at the property in the evenings. The Sonos sound system was nice, the outside grill area was great we used it a few times. Stay Tamarindo concierge service was great, we used them all the time to book excursions, airports pickups, restaurant reservations and also a good source of information about the area. Our House Mom was awesome, she made us breakfast ever morning, cleaned the rooms as needed, provide pool towels, etc. She was great to have around the house and made our stay very welcoming and fun. Compass house was awesome, can't say enough good things, we had 10 folks stay there over the week and they all loved the house and the town of Tamarindo.

Spectacular view home!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house itself is magnificent.The views from the bedrooms are all ocean view with balconies. Sitting in the infinity pool you are looking at the beautiful surfing beaches of Tamarindo. The house is brand new with everything one would want and expect from a 5 star 's nice having a choice between a large commercial grade kitchen indoors and an equally large and functional outdoor kitchen complete with pizza oven! The property location is a perfect balance between beaches, restaurants and complete privacy from both. Tons of room for family and friends. Will definitely go back.

Perfect house for a wedding party

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented both Leo Loco and Compass house for our wedding party. Everyone had an incredible experience. It was so perfect and better than I could have ever imagined! The staff and rental company are lovely and very easy to work with. They made all my special accommodations happen and I felt pricing was very fair. The breakfast cooked for us each morning was delicious. These homes are perfect for groups and having fun! Compass house has an industrial ice maker and blender, tons of seating, and the living room opening to the pool is spectacular! This was the absolute perfect house for our wedding party and our stay was magical.

Amazing views and stunning home!

We were a party of 9 and had an amazing time at this home. Close driving distance to beach from house but does require an ATV or AWD vehicle to navigate down to the beach or town. Parking was not an issue. Security guard on premise during the evenings. Housekeepers were fantastic and available . Gorgeous infinity pool with hot tub and amazing sunset views each night.

Family of 14 on vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay at Compass House; it is a beautiful, comfortable, very well maintained home. The swimming pool and jacuzzi are exceptional. We had 5 of our grandchildren ranging in age from 6-9 and it was a perfect setup for all of us; the kids were always visible but not necessarily in the same living space which gave their parents a vacation as well.Our 9 days went much too fast. We loved zip lining, surfing and fishing.

Family Extravaganza

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: From the moment we arrived until our departure everything was exceptional. The house was immaculate and the views from every corner were spectacular. Natalia provided topnotch management and. concierge services throughout the entire stay. The group breakfast each morning on the open air terrace was a delicious and amazing start to the day. From the pool boy and gardener to the cleaning staff and security guard, their discreet, respectful, attention to detail was greatly appreciated. The location of Compass House was perfect in relation to the great little surf town of Tamarindo. Definitely a car is necessary to get up & down the steep dirt road leading up to the house from the main drag. Hearing the male Howler monkey’s unique territorial calls, mostly at sunrise, added to our wonderful family adventure.

The best vacation house for a group

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is incredible with breath taking views. The pool and house is relaxing and everything the pictures make it to be. The breakfast was delicious, beds comfortable and clean. The property management team Five Star were very diligent and helpful with all our questions and request. They helped with reservations, excursions, and transportation.I would take advantage of the guest page when you book, It is helpful with planning your vacation. The road and hill to the house are pain to walk, so rent a car, golf cart, and if you don’t want to deal with parking, Five Star can help connect you to a van pick up service around town for your large group- inexpensive and handy. I would rent this house again.

Great House

The property was fabulous, super clean, great outdoor space, fantastic views. Natalia and Maria were a pleasure to deal with. We fit 13 people very comfortably in the house. Going up and down the hill into town can be a bit of a challenge however.

Gorgeous, modern, minimalist, and breathtaking views.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Natalia, the house manager, was incredible and instrumental in helping us make our wedding the best experience of our lives. We booked two properties from Five Star Tamarindo, so that we could accommodate our guests, as well as host our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and reception for 35 people. We did this from a distance, in the US, and we had no idea how incredibly beautiful the spaces are, until we walked in for the first time. The wow factor when you walk into Compass is massive. My wife and I and our guests were oooh-ing and ahhh-ing as soon as we walked in... the view is incredible, with the infinity pool as foreground against a gorgeous backdrop of sky, beachfront, and ocean. Natalia was such a very special part of our experience. Her calm and friendly smile, her sincerity, was so great, especially on our wedding day. She was available to help us with anything we needed; she was so excellent with communication, and she even helped with the small things, making suggestions for our stay, and even helping out with breakfast. Breakfast was provided for our guests, every single day, and it was such a lovely experience to share in fresh fruits, Costa Rican food, and fresh juice alongside our family and friends daily. Onto the villas!! I can’t say enough about Compass House and Leo Loco. The two properties are connected by a walkway and stairs that leads from the back of each house. Since we rented both villas, we got the best of both worlds, but I will review each separately. Compass House Gorgeous, modern, minimalist, and breathtaking views. Each room had its own bathroom, and the staff helped keep everything clean and tidy daily. The view and the infinity pool were the highlight of everyone

Fantastic Stay w an Amazing House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Breathtaking! House is as gorgeous as the pictures and plenty of space for a large party. Natalia is fantastic and very easy to work with. She was extremely easy to connect and I advise connecting via WhatsApp as very responsive. Daily maids to clean up and breakfast every morning. Never had any issues. Would recommend 10:10 times. Also take Natalia recommendations with activities and transportation and definitely get golf carts. That hill is no joke! Recommend a chef one of nights to have an early dinner for the views and sunset.
