Guest Reviews

• Małgorzata (10/5): - - Przemili gospodarze, bardzo dobra komunikacja - dobrze wyposażona wspólna kuchnia (aczkolwiek mieliśmy też własną kuchnię w domku) - bardzo czysto i wygodnie, duże łóżko:) - ciepła woda i prysznic że słuchawką (co nie jest oczywiste w Kostaryce;)) - że względu na remont zarezerwowanego domku, zostaliśmy zakwaterowani w domku o wyższym standardzie w tej samej cenie - para lokalnych legwanów :)
• Carlos Mario (10/5): Un lugar muy aseado, cómodo y con todo lo que se necesita para pasar unos días de descanso. - Excelente la atención de los propietarios, las instalaciones en muy buenas condiciones y el aseo del lugar y comodidades de la habitación súper bien.
• Ruth (10/5): Espectacular - El lugar y las personas dueñas del lugar son increíbles, un lugar super cómodo, con lindas instalaciones y un excelente ambiente. .
• MirandaE (4/5): -
• Mainor (10/5): -
• Matthieu (8/5): -
• Keren (10/5): Una experiencia relajante - Los dueños muy atentos La calle de entrada es de piedra, los carros pequeños sufren un poco
• Montoya Domínguez (10/5): - ¡Me encantó! La habitación muy cómoda, limpia y tranquila para descansar. La ubicación es estratégica. Dominique fue muy amable.
• Gustavo (10/5): - Ubicación estratégica para poder desplazarse a muchas playas La atención de los dueños Habitación súper confortable Un lugar al cual volveremos Más que recomendado
• Ilaria (8/5): -
• Mathieu (10/5): Une déconnexion complète dans ce petit paradis. Un accueil chaleureux et un séjour ressourçant - Un accueil très chaleureux et un cadre incroyable
• Armando (9/5): -
• Núria (9/5): -
• Julie (10/5): Je recommande 100% pour l’hospitalité de Dominique et la beauté du lieu - Notre hôte Dominique était super à l’écoute et très accueillant Rien
• jacinthe (8/5): Pura Vida - Beau site, bien aménagé et calme. Personnel sympathique et très avenant. Un merci tout particulier à Dominique et à notre jardinier préféré pour leur aide lorsque nous avons eu un pépin avec notre voiture de location. Un détail: la petitesse du réfrigérateur. La solution: une glacière pour compenser 😉
• Emeric (9/5): - Endroit très paisible avec sa piscine et pas loin des plages !
• Dorthe (10/5): - Vi boede i den ene ende af det lille fine røde hus, som var så hyggelig. Swimmingpoolen var skøn og vi nød de rolige omgivelser. Stedet ligger i perfekt afstand til udflugter til Tamarindo og de andre omkringliggende små byer. Det kræver blot at du har en bil med. Vores vært Dominique var super venlig og hjælpsom. Vi håber at komme tilbage.
• Kristin (10/5): En oase av vakker natur og komfort. - Helt nydelig sted, herlig stor seng, flott nyoppusset bad. Bassenget er herlig og hagen en oase. Dominique er en oppmerksom og smilende vert. Det hadde vært supert med tilgang til kjøkken 😊
• Gilberto (8/5): Estuvo bien - La gente muy amable Las comodidades, ya hay cosas que cambiar o mejorar
• Gabriel (9/5): Muy buena - El ambiente y la tranquilidad del local La ubicación un poco alejado.Pero si llegan los taxi por aplicativos
• Kena Mercedes Silvia (10/5): Relaxing stay in a beautiful and quiet location - Casa Mapache is beautifully and quietly located in a safe area. By car, it’s only a few minutes to the nearest supermarket and not far from the center of Tamarindo either. The room was very spacious and thoughtfully designed, with a mini fridge and a cooktop as well. The pool was a great refreshment, and we even spotted some monkeys in the trees above. The host, Dominique, was super friendly, we felt very well taken care of and would definitely come back! -
• Sebastiaan (10/5): Geweldig - Fijne host, schoon en lekker zwembad Het is tussen playa grande en tamarindo. Dus je hebt wel een auto nodig
• Franklin (9/5): Tranquila y segura - El.lugar muy tranquilo y seguro. El.personal atento, en especial Dominic La cama y la limpieza de la habitación. Como le comenté al señor Dominic, sería bueno realizar la limpieza por lo menos cada 3 días.
• Jorge (10/5): Paz -
• Ofer (10/5): הרגשנו ברי מזל להתארח אצלכם, תודה - המקום נעים החל מהכניסה לחנייה המוצלת בתוך המתחם, כניסה מרגיעה בשביל לגינה המטופחת באהבה המקיפה בריכה לא קטנה. החדר מעוצב בטעם טוב, נעים, מאוורר ונוח. נהננו להתרחץ בבריכה, לשבת במתחם האוכל המשותף, לצורכי עבודה, ארוחות שבישלנו במטבח המשותף המאובזר או סתם לשתות בירה או קפה. הבעלים היה מקסים, נידב הצעות למקומות שכדאי לראות בסביבה ונענה לכל בקשה. תמרינדו השוקקת נמצאת במרחק 20 דקות נסיעה קלה משם ותמיד נהננו לחזור לאווירה המחבקת והשקטה של המתחם. התמזל מזלנו לראות משפחת קופים שמגיעה לפעמים לצמרת העץ הוותיק וציפורים יפיפיות. תודה רבה
• Karl Theo (3/5): Negative Erfahrung. - — Leider entspricht diese Anlage nicht der Vorstellung die in Booking com steht . Es gibt eine Person die Reinigungsarbeiten im Außenbeleuchtung mach es gibt kein Roomservice die Türklinken fallen an Toilette fast ab . Habe abgebrochen nach zwei Übernachtungen musste die zwei ÜN bezahlen sowie die 15 % der Kommission auf gesamt Buchung dieses wurde mir Alls entgegenkommen argumentiert.
• Mauro Barquero (10/5): Amazing Oasis (Dominic is the best) - Dominic is an amazing host he really cares your stay is amazing and the place is a paradise N/A
• Anchia (8/5): - El lugar es increíble, hay mucha paz. Tuvimos varios problemas con el aire acondicionado pero nada del otro mundo
• Dhwani (10/5): Calm, cool, and quite place in busy tamarindo - - large room size - great closet space - 20min from tamarindo main strip - large shower space - 3 cute pets on property - they charge extra $1 for 250mL water bottles in the fridge - weak shower flow - hard to contact someone when trying to check in because no one is waiting outside their gate - rock hard mattress. gave me back pain
• LAETITIA (10/5): Pura vida! Sejour adreable au soleil - Dominique a su égayer notre séjour, toujours de bons conseils et aux petits soins, les équipement étaient très propres et adéquats, nous avons profité de la cuisine pour nous faire de petits plats, endroit calme avec piscine, parfait pour un couple dans ce havre de paix. Dominique nous a déposé à une pizzeria sympathique du coin et nous avons eu l’opportunité de partager un repas avant notre départ, Si vous cherchez un endroit paisible et calme où vous ressourcer, casa mapache est l’endroit parfait, Merci :) Tout était ok, propreté et calme
• Judith (10/5): -
• moulis (10/5): - Dominique est au petit soin,l'endroit est paisible et spacieux. Très belle piscine et environnement...à conseiller
• Astha_Garg (9/5): Amazing stay & value for money! - The host Dominic was very warm & friendly. He went out of his way to help us. First with the late check-in and then with the additional things that we needed. The room is quite cozy and comfortable. It has everything that you would need for a comfortable stay. The location is also good if you have your own car. Away from the hustle & bustle of the town. There are 2 very cute little pups at the property. The pool is not very inviting! Rest everything is good!
• Thibault (10/5): Dominique est un hôte adorable et attentionné, chez lui nous nous sentons chez nous… tout est parfait, merci encore - Tout était parfait ! Le lieu, l’atmosphère, le propriétaire ! Rien !
• Sonia (9/5): Alojamiento precioso - El alojamiento es precioso, tanto las zonas comunes como el apartamento/casita. Todo decorado con mucho gusto, muy limpio y cocina bien equipada. No hemos coincidido con los propietarios pero el encargado fue súper amable y atento. Nos gustó todo
• Amanda (10/5): -
• Keylor (10/5): The perfect place to stay on Tamarindo - We love the zone, the comfort and the amazing people that manages this property Nothing, everything was perfect, clean and calm
• Isela (8/5): - Las habitaciones super cómodas
• Keylor (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tatyana (8/5): Green territory stay - The room is big and has the kitchen, staff there is very friendly and helped us with charge adaptor. Territory is green and lovely. Price is too high for us and when we paid via application we were extra charged with application fee. There were little ants in the kitchen which are quite annoying.
• Michael (8/5): Very good - It was an oasis away from the hustle bustle
• Diana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tricia (10/5): Beautiful and relaxing - I had a wonderful stay at Casa Mapache. The grounds are beautiful with lots of greenery. The patio area and pool were amazing. The room was very clean and the bed and linens were amazingly comfortable. The owners were very friendly and helpful. I recommend staying here. 10/10
• Barbara (9/5): Superb - Really liked how private Casa Mapache was. Loved the idea of being able to make our meals in ' ranchero' they have near the pool. Was a little concerned at first of its location because we didn't have a car, but UBER was excellent. Only 15 minutes into Tamarindo. Our hosts went out way to be helpful, and pool staff worked very hard to keep grounds immaculate. Room was very spacious and large bathroom. No regrets AT ALL with Casa Mapache.
• Luke (9/5): Superb -
• Federico (8/5): Good location - Location Coffee maker and refrigerator, pretty small
• Mark (8/5): Very good -
• Stuart (9/5): Superb -
• Antony (9/5): Superb -
• David (9/5): Superb - The bed was comfortable, was able to cook my breakfasts there. Missing a comfortable working location in the room. I made myself a standing desk by putting pillows and towels on top of each other. A stool could have helped with this.
• Hodder (10/5): Exceptional -
• Donna (10/5): I had an amazing stay! I wish I could have stayed a few days longer. - It’s beautiful The long entrance
• Ashley (10/5): Thus place was beautiful and relaxing. - The room was beautiful, the common spaces (kitchen, outdoor area) were beautiful. The pool was perfect! There was so much thought put into this place and everything was so pretty. You need a car to get around comfortably but if not, ride share is very easy to get!
• Ramos (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sarah (10/5): Exceptional - This place was really amazing! The rooms feel very luxurious and stylish and the bed is exceptionally comfortable. The pool and garden is absolutely beautiful and so peaceful to relax in. The shared kitchen is also very nice! The owners are so friendly and kind. We felt welcome from the moment we arrived. Thank you for such a relaxing stay! We wish we could have stayed longer.
• Sophie (9/5): Superb -
• Read (8/5): Very good -
• Natalie (10/5): Thank you so much Ampi and Dominic!! We loved our stay with you guys!! - We loved our hosts Ampi and Dominic!! They were extremely kind, warm and welcoming!! Their property was like a private tropical Oasis that was beautiful and well groomed!! The beds were extremely comfortable and we would recommend staying with them 1,000%!! We will definitely visit and stay with them again when we return to Costa Rica and the Tamarindo area!! We loved our hosts, our room and the property grounds!!
• James (10/5): Peaceful stay for peace and quiet - It was so nice to spend a few days in this calm oasis after coming from the busy centre of Tamarindo. Rooms are very spacious and the beds are so comfortable. You have a nice patio area outside the front of each room to relax and listen to the birds and animals outside. The shared kitchen is huge and has everything you would need. Large and secure parking spaces. The owners are a lovely couple who are so welcoming and take the time to get to know you and make sure you are enjoying your stay. They also have lovely little dogs and cats. Merci beaucoup! :) Would have preferred a door to the bathrooms rather than just a curtain.
• Norma (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alon25 (9/5): Superb -
• Michelle (10/5): You can go with Casa Mapache eyes closed. Exquisite place. - The fully equipped kitchenette, the beautiful shady premises full of lush tropical plants, the pool, the owners! Nothing we didn't like!!
• Sebastian (10/5): We had a perfect stay, 10/10! -
• Sylvierivière (10/5): Loved my stay here! - Location is a nice and quite enough to enjoy the room and ambiance...there's a very nice vibe of energy I picked up on. My bad back had some trouble with the outdoor seats. Maybe a lounge chair could work better to relax in front of the room. It has enough privacy to feel secluded. It was a great experience.
• Marshall (9/5): Its a beautiful, relaxing and pleasant place and I will recommend it anytime - I love that its a gated and once inside its like a little oasis, I love the way the bed was made. The hospitality industry still going trough adversities and post lockdown they are coming up with new ideas that make guess feel more relax and comfortable and easy on the pocket, Ygal as done an excellent job restoring the premises. the wildlife that comes around is a welcome bonus also. The things I see that need some easy improvement is the partition glass in the shower the calcification on it needs to be look after as well as the chrome fixtures in the bathroom also a privacy curtain by the window, other than that its an awesome place to stay an it will be one of my choices again on my next travel to Costa Rica.
• Luis (10/5): Perfect experience - The gardens were great! You could barely feel the summer heat. Everything was extra clean and nicely organized. 10/10
• Enrique (10/5): Will keep coming back! - Excellent service from the owner and the staff. Beautiful landscape. Private. Easy access to main road and towns nearby. All good! No complains.
