Casa Leo Loco

Leave the mundane behind and escape to your own private Spanish style villa. Set among the lush hilltop gardens of Tamarindo, Casa Leo Loco offers the tranquil sensation of being in a rustic retreat but with the convenient features of a modern home. Upon arrival, keyless entry provides you access and peace of mind knowing you’ll never lose your keys after a long day of adventures. Walk into the main house where you will be welcomed by exquisite wood furnishings, natural earthy tones and spectacular water views as far as the eye can see. Get inspired to create delicious tropical concoctions in the fully equipped kitchen, complete with Vitamix blender. Make your way to the cozy living room and curl up on the plush sofa, while being refreshed by the cooling air of the ceiling fan. If a warm ocean breeze is what you would prefer, simply push aside the glass doors to expose the enchanting terrace. With various charming shaded seating areas, it’s the perfect location for spotting birds and local Howler monkeys. Continue past the beach lounge chairs and take a refreshing dip in the gorgeous infinity pool or seated pool area, and get lost admiring the magnificent colors all around. After a calming swim, dry off and mingle with your guests at the outdoor dining table under the finely crafted, spacious, pool-side palapa constructed of stone and a classic thatched roof. Whip up some exotic cocktails and throw an afternoon barbecue in the stylish pool-side lounge, equipped with all of the grilling equipment you’ll need. As the sun begins to dip, sit back and revel in the glorious sunset before you, all the while being protected from unwanted insects with natural chrysanthemum extract, through the built-in MistAway Mosquito Control system. As night sets in, head on up to the master suite where your comfortable king-size hanging bed awaits you. In the morning wake up to amazing views of the pool and gardens as you step out onto your balcony. When it's time to proceed downstairs, why not take the more exhilarating route and plunge directly into the warm waters of the pool from your second floor oasis. Two additional suites with queen beds and en-suite bathrooms are available for your guests to enjoy in the main house complex. While the home’s unique castle-like, three-level tower, includes two twin beds in the lower level wine cellar, a Full bed on the middle level, and a queen bed on the treehouse-like upper level.

Descend the beautiful hilltops of Tamarindo and within minutes you’ll find yourself on the soft, warm sand of Tamarindo Beach. Spend your day swimming, lounging or surfing the world-renowned waves before grabbing lunch at one of over 100 restaurants serving fantastic dishes from all around the world. Take an afternoon stroll down the bustling streets, stopping to browse through charming little shops full of local treasures. As dusk approaches, make your way to a local bar along the beach and indulge in a heavenly sunset cocktail. Finish off your evening in town igniting your senses with a mouthwatering meal while listening to the sounds of live music at one of many venues in the area. Your adventure wouldn’t be complete without exploring all of the natural beauty that Costa Rica has to offer. Let us arrange a visit to the nearby national park with a tranquil boat tour through the mangrove swamps, where you can explore and relax at the same time. Whatever experience you choose, we are committed to ensuring your enjoyment.

  Rachel R from Carlsbad, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Casa Leo Loco is just incredible! It was like our own private resort. The pool and views are unreal. It was very clean and the layout was so unique and fun. Our contact Natalia was so sweet and friendly, and was very easy to communicate with throughout our stay. The massages the management booked for us were one of the best massages we've had. We hired a private chef so that we could spend even more time enjoying the property. I would highly recommend this house to anyone and hope we get to come back one day!

  Absolutely amazing. The view, the staff, the are..everything was about as good as it gets. Ana was extremely helpful with everything we needed and had any problems taken care of ASAP. My only complaint was the humidity...WOW. I'm from Florida and it was ridiculous.

  Michael I from Santa Rosa , CA recommends this vacation rental

  Casa Leo Loco was very pleasant. The only comments to the negative are regarding the kitchen. The teflon pans are dated and need to be replaced. A spatula and a functional toaster would be great. The oven could be replaced as well, very difficult to operate effectively.

  • Manager Responded on 8/5/2021

    Hi Michael, We are glad to hear you had a pleasant stay. We have updated the pans, staptulas and toaster after your review. Hope to have you back again soon Regards Natalia

  Alecia T from Belton, SC recommends this vacation rental

  We stay here the week of March 13-20, 2021 for my 40th birthday. There was a group of 8 and we had plenty of room in the entire home. Loved the outdoor pool area, BBQ and sitting at night. the sunset from the patio is breath taking. The house exceeded our expectations as this was our first trip to Costa Rica. The owner, Natalie was so helpful in making sure everything was perfect and helpful in any of our needs. If you plan to stay here definitely rent gas golf carts for the hill to the home. We will be back and see ya soon Case Leo Loco.
  Muah!!!!

  Gustavo Q from Guadalupe, San Jose recommends this vacation rental

  I visited the property with my wife and two young kids, a week to rest and share with my family. The property is in a great location with an excellent view of the ocean and Tamarindo, ver close to all services. The property manager is very courteous and helpful, doing the best for us to have a perfect stay.
  The house is very well equipped and the common areas are very pleasant.
  Will definitely return to this property and will recommend it.

  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!

  Stephanie Nicolaas M recommends this vacation rental

  I can't express how much gratitude I have for the hospitality provided by Five Star Tamarindo. We rented 2 houses (Compass House and Casa Leo Loco) part of my wedding party stayed here and they truly enjoyed the house. They particularly loved jumping into the pool from the top balcony! The rooms were spacious and bedding was comfortable. The kitchen was equiped with everything we needed. If we wanted to request breakfast or even hiring a personal chef the amazing Five Star Tamarindo host (Natalia) made it happen...all we had to do was ask! Also.. the views from this house were amazing and we will never forget the sunsets here! Thank you again for everything and we hope to return soon.

  a guest from Oklahoma City, OK recommends this vacation rental

  Casa Leo Loco was an amazing house and we enjoyed everything about our stay there. We had 4 adults, a 1 year old and 5 year old. The pools were perfect for the swimmers and non-swimmers. The house was very clean and comfortable. The management staff, especially Natalia, went above expectations to ensure we had everything we needed. Natalia dealt with multiple luggage issues we had, as well as made sure the 1 year old had everything she needed that we couldn't travel with. She also arranged for a chef, sunset cruise and surf lessons, which were all terrific. We were very happy with the choices she recommended. I have stayed at numerous rentals and our experience with Casa Leo Loco was by far the best one.

  Catherine L from Sidney, BC recommends this vacation rental

  We were a group of 9 adults that came together in Costa Rica to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday. Casa Leo Loco has plenty of space for us, we never felt like we were on top of each other. Different places to sit and relax and the pool and views are priceless! We spent a lot time at the house and cooked all of our breakfasts and dinners there. The kitchen was sufficient and the bbq was a great place to socialize as the grill master was doing his thing. There's an extra full size fridge outside beside the lounge area, which was perfect to stock our drinks. I just can't say enough. Beds were super comfortable and linens were better than hotels. Plenty of towels for both bath and pool. We loved our stay and will be looking back at the pictures with nostalgia. Also, Natalia and Mario were the best hosts I've come across when it comes to vacation rentals. So responsive, helpful and also super nice. Thank you so much! My husband was so happy and he will be talking about his 50th for years to come!

  Grace M recommends this vacation rental

  Just got back from an amazing vacation at Casa Leo Loco. First of all - amazing house with all the amenities you would ever need but to make it even easier we had Natalia helping us along the way. She was a fantastic house manager. Her and her husband Mario made sure we had everything we needed from excursion suggestions and bookings, airport transportation, chef accommodations, to a high chair for our daughter. During the trip if we had any questions we could just text her and she got back to us right away. The house was immaculate and even came with cleaning service twice during our seven day stay. Highly recommend Leo loco or anything that five star tamarindo represents.
