Incredibly nice place, great atmosphere. The staff was very welcoming and nice. Practical kitchen and nice terraces to eat and relax on. We were a family of 4 and our teenagers loved it.

I had the perfect stay at Surfo house in tamarindo! I was very comfortable I even extended my stay. The areas are clean, the kitchen has everything you need, the store is conveniently located just downstairs, the beach is just 3 minutes walking distance, close to all restaurants, shops, even the bus station is right there. The staff were excellent! So friendly and welcoming. The cleaners were always keeping everything tidy. The lounging areas in the balcony were comfortable. Anything I needed, of I had a question about anything, the owner was always just a text away and very responsive. I’m glad I found this place! I highly recommend it!
