Find tranquility and adventure at this modern, family-friendly home in a wonderful location surrounded by lush nature! Casa de Armonía is within a mile of Tamarindo Beach with its long beginner-friendly waves, beachfront dining, world-class sunsets, and the famous Tamarindo estuary, brimming with native wildlife. You will be within walking distance of Siempre Fresco (a local grocery store known for excellent produce - just at the end of the street) and Auto Mercado, the largest US-style grocery store with the best selection of imports, is just a minute's drive down the road. There is also a collection of walkable shops, including Tamarindo Coffee Roasters, an ice cream shop, a custom surfboard shop, and a gym, if that's your thing.
This beautiful home boasts a spacious private backyard with a sparkling private saltwater pool, a wooden patio, an outdoor dining area, and a gas BBQ. During the day, a pack of green parakeets noisily flit about the branches of the trees, and hummingbirds frequent the wall of bright red hibiscus along the fence line. If you're lucky, you may see a troop of howler monkeys visit in the afternoon, and in the evenings, you can sit on the patio under the warm string lights or enjoy the LED-lit saltwater swimming pool. A convenient outdoor shower is available in the backyard to wash off sandy feet.
The interior of this home offers the perfect blend of modernity and rustic charm with natural accents here and there. Come in from a refreshing dip in the pool and spread out comfortably on the large sectional. Enjoy smarter technology like TVs with all your favorite entertainment apps available, wifi throughout, A/C units in every room, and the indoor/outdoor bluetooth sound system while the house's eco-friendly solar panels help to offset your carbon footprint (pura vida!). When mealtime comes, the fully-equipped open kitchen features all stainless steel appliances that will make cooking and entertaining a breeze. You can blend up smoothies for the whole family with the local produce from the Saturday Tamarindo farmer's market (don't miss the local guanábana and maracuyá!) and dine either at the kitchen island or alfresco on the outdoor, locally made Guanacaste wood dining table under the covered patio.
The separate "casita" studio features a queen bed, en-suite bathroom, and small kitchenette with a mini-fridge, a sink, and a microwave. The master bedroom features a specious king bed, en-suite bathroom, and a private en-suite patio with seating for two to help you unwind after a long day of adventuring. All rooms are equipped with a Dohm white noise machine for guest use. Additional conveniences include a Pack N' Play, a high chair, a full size washer/dryer on-site, and an online house manual with entertainment recommendations and answers to FAQs.
