5/5

Stayed in Tamarindo for a month and absolutely loved our accommodations at El Cometa. The condo was beautifully decorated, clean, and fully stocked. We were travelling with two young children and didn't worry about a thing once we arrived. Amazing location, so close to everything! Used the pool daily and it was always very clean. We had a few maintenance issues while we were there that were dealt with extremely promptly. Would highly recommend and we are hoping to be back one day.

What a wonderful, relaxing home. The location is great as it is up a small hill so you are away from the noise of town. This is a nicely decorated place in a medium size complex (about 24 homes) which felt both friendly and safe and not too noisy. We sat by the pool when it was shady to read and rest. We appreciated the good quality sheets and beach towels and the housekeeper was friendly and helpful. The sunrise, sunset and stars from the roof deck are great. Even though there is a table and chairs up there, we found it too hot during the day. But we did eat dinner up there twice. The stove was brand new and the pretty kitchen has everything you need to make a meal. Having the grocery store a block away is handy. The outdoor food court down the hill has good options for $10-$15 per person. Waffle Monkey is a great find. We bought a classic waffle and took it to go during our morning stroll around town more than once. We took Pilates classes at Mermaids and Sailors to burn off the calories!

We loved everything. The beautiful scenery and wonderful meals and nice condo. My husband has celiac and we were impressed by the many options we had and how helpful everyone is. Even Sharkey’s Sports Bar put on the Canadian matches for us. Can’t wait to come back.

Loved the beautiful sunsets and time on the beach while staying here. We went out to Playa Conchal for snorkeling and Playa Negra for fishing. Caught a 30 lb, jack fish and had a local restaurant prepare it Tico style with rice and beans. Very tasty. Loved coming back to the condo and found great local food in and around Tamarindo. Also better prices on souvenirs in Tamarindo than some of the fancier resort areas. Keep Calm and Pura Vida!!

Very helpful management staff. Condo is beautiful
Close to all shops and restaurants and nightlife
Highly recommended!!

On arrival the apartment block looked a little bit 'weathered' but as soon as we got inside we saw that the apartment was spacious and well maintained. Everything we needed was there. Kitchen equipment was ample and well thought out. Both bedrooms were comfortable with ensuite bathrooms. The only improvement we might have looked for was a better cooker as this one was a little older and hard to control. This is a minor detail though. In general the apartment was excellent and really good value. As others have said it is a two minute walk from the beachfront but beautifully quiet at night. Some have mentioned the pool being cold but we found it constantly warm. There is secure parking and 24/7 security presence. The rental.company were efficient and friendly. The maid service was quick and unobtrusive. There is no laundry room as such but there is a commercial laundry in the nearby mini-mall that charges $2 per kilo for a service wash. All in all this was an ideal place to stay in Tamarindo. I would return again if visiting Tamarindo.

The apartment was pretty well equipped, it was very clean, the beds were not soft at all, our air cond broke but they put a new one in very quickly. The location was spot on, we enjoyed our stay very much, the pool was nice n warm, the ocean was a 3 minute walk, walked the beautiful beach everyday, pura vida

We had a fabulous stay at La Cometa 19 in Tamarindo

Our first visit to Costa Rica, very enjoyable, good weather, very walkable town with good restaurants, bars, beach area etc. Incredible sunset viewing from the beach. We will definitely return.

The unit was great, just as described and more: lots of little pluses like beach towels, boogie boards, Google Play. Even though it was New Years weekend and the town was packed with partiers, I felt my young family was nestled away nicely being up the road (two short streets) from the action.

The pool area wasn't great, just basic and small and the water was surprisingly cold but my kids enjoyed it nonetheless. It's deep though so no good for non-swimmers.

The unit entrance is on the second floor. A very nice space on the main level for open plan kitchen/dining/living plus a guest bed and half bath. The bedrooms upstairs each had en suite and were really comfortable and loads of storage space. Really a lovely unit.

All the supplies a family needed, well-stocked kitchen, cleaning service F the end.

All great, we'd stay again!

We came for 10 days and the wedding of a dear friend. Could not have been happier! And can't wait to come back!! The property was in prime location, close (like less than 3 blocks) to the ocean and restaurants, half a block from a grocery store. Had a problem with one of the beds and they had someone there to repair it within an hour of letting them know. Highly recommend this location, property and rental company!!

We enjoyed the condo and felt we had plenty of space. It was well furnished and supplied with all we needed. it was conveniently located to the nice beach, shops and restaurants. We'd definitely stay again!

Very well equipped unit, not too much noise and really close to supermarket and bank

The property description was o.k. it is was very clean Inside and outside the property. small parking lot,,,very good Customer service,,good amenities and furniture,,,

Overall we had a very good experience. The condo was very nice. Clean and very roomy. Especially loved the balcony. Shady with a nice breeze all day. It was near every thing we needed. I suggest El Be for happy hour, music and sunset. A few minor problems. When we arrived the hot water faucets didn't work in either of the bathrooms. We reported it and a repairman came promptly and fixed one of them while we were out to lunch. The other one never did get fixed. We were supposed to have maid service one day with a 7 day stay. That never happened. Our WiFi went out halfway through our stay. Annoying, but not the end of the world. We did end the trip on a bad note, however, when the office said they would have a taxi lined up to return us to the airport (they had done that for our arrival). No taxi showed up. My husband went over to the office and the gentleman with whom we had made the arrangements wasn't in. No one else seemed to know anything about it. We ended up having to find our own cab at the last minute and ended up riding the hour to the airport in an old junk car with no air conditioning. Very disappointing.

Un lugar muy conveniente para una playa tan popular. En cinco minutos se puede llegar a la playa caminando. El condominio es muy amplio y limpio con una piscina muy acogedora. Está muy bien decorado y cómodo. Lo recomiendo.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at La Cometa 19. The condo is super spacious, clean, and fit for a queen. My favorite spot to have my morning coffee was on the beautiful balcony. We pulled in and parked our car and there it stayed for most of the week. The condo is located in a private spot but you are in walking distance to the beach, local shops, restaurants, and gelato :) I can't wait to go back. It was so nice to have a kitchen to cook meals, 3 bathrooms, and the rooftop to look at the stars! You will surely get a quiet nights rest even with all the commotion through the town. Such a beautiful place and condo! I recommend this to anyone!

I was able to spend 4 nights at this lovely condo and it was a perfect location for our family vacation. We had a party of 6 people and we were all able to sleep comfortably. This cozy place has great access to Tamarindo beach and access to the local "strand" there in Tamarindo. Bascially everything is within walking distance; the beach, the restaurants, also many of the "hot spots" for night life in Tamarindo. There is all a full kitchen so we were able to whip up a sandwich smorgasbord after a long day at the beach. The condo is three stories and the third story "roof-balcony" has a great view of the ocean. This place will give you a great combo of getting an authentic "Costa Rican/tico" experience while also having comfortable amenities like AC units, a pool, etc. Ditch the overpriced, touristy resort - stay here instead! :)

Perfect location. Condo is roomy, cozy, and clean. Nice to cool off in the pool. MUST STAY!

I think this condo is a real bargain. Its a better location than most hotels, being close to all beaches and restaurants, but one block from the noisy main street in town. It is in great shape and very, very roomy and nicely decorated. For two couples, it is a much better deal than a hotel and eating out every meal and snack. We talked to the managers and they told us this condo has new owners this year who have painted the whole place and upgraded the furniture, new beds, towels, dishes, everything. The managers gave us a great list of restaurants and helped us book a sunset sail on a catamaran.

Our family of 5 spent a week here in July 2016 and it was a great, great base for us to all relax together, surf and have fun. The thing about Tamarindo is that you don't need a car. You can spend all day wandering on and off the beach, renting surf boards and boogie boards, and going in and out of juice bars and cafes. This condo was perfect for us. It is really spread out so we all got quiet places to hang. It's got a great roof deck for morning coffee and to do a surf check in your pajamas! We saw and heard howler monkeys everyday in the big park behind the condo and in the morning watched flocks of green parrots while we sat up on the roof deck. We bought groceries right across the street, or went out. Our family with young teens spent the evenings playing pool together at the Roof Bar just down the block, or lounging in the pool at the condo after dark. Very chill. If you are looking for a funky beach surfing vibe, Tamarindo is your town. And this condo lets you stroll right down to the beach in 2 blocks, without the noise of the main drag. You can rent a car or hire a driver to take you to other surf spots like Grande and Avellanas for a good day trip.

A friend suggested we book this place for a few days. It is huge and was a real luxury for the two of us. My wife and I live near San Jose and wanted to get to the beach and really liked the place. We didn't do much cooking because there are so many restaurants from cheap to fancy nearby. The unit condition is really good and the management staff were friendly and organized. Very clean. Easy walk to town and the beach.

We have spent a lot of time in Tamarindo, trying to get away from Chicago's winter. We were in this condo in March 2016 and had a great time. It has tons of space and lots of light, without being hot. The unit was freshly painted, with new linens and blankets, which was nice. It is up a hill and lost a few points for the unpaved road in front. Overall, a great place with 2 big bedrooms (one queen, one king) on their own level each with a full bath. Upstairs is a roof deck up for sunset cocktail sand a main level with a half bath, well equipped kitchen, dining and living room. Great condition and location.
