 Tamarindo Accommodation Options

Our Residence/Apartments

We have a very nice residence located right at the school. Overall this is probably the most popular accommodation choice for our students. Please note that its  important to register early due to the fact that space in the residence is limited and so it fills up fast!
This consists of 4 large apartments. Each apartment has 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a kitchen, small eating area and a large living room. Our students at the residence will share a bedroom with other students and also the common areas.
 

Each residence has:

- Air conditioning
- Cable TV
- High Speed Wireless Internet (bring your laptop)

This option is the perfect accommodation option for students who: do not want to stay with a host family, enjoy sharing an apartment with other Spanish students, and want the accommodation option that is closest to everything of interest in Playa Tamarindo.
The amenities of each of the apartments are basic but nice. We would classify the apartments as having the feel of a nice hostel or college dorm.
Each apartment is completely furnished and each kitchen is fully stocked so that you can cook your own meals. From a comfort standpoint you will enjoy the fact that each apartment has air conditioning.
It is only 5-10 minutes walking from the main centre of Playa Tamarindo AND the beach areas. You could not ask for a more central location!

Homestay Option

Living with a Costa Rican host family is a great way to learn more about the culture while also having another place where you can practice your Spanish. Coastal Spanish has carefully selected a number of families to help make your stay enjoyable.

Typical families will host one to two students at a time. Each student will receive his/her own room and will get two meals per day (breakfast and dinner). Additionally each student will get a key to allow them to come and go as they please. The homestays can be considered relatively small and basic. However do not let this deter you. Costa Rican are well known for their hospitality!

The vast majority of our host families are located in the towns of Santa Rose and Villa Real. These towns are approximately 3-5 miles from Playa Tamarindo. There is regular and cheap public transportation between these towns and Playa Tamarindo, so getting back and forth will not present any difficulty. Buses run from early in the morning to early evening. Taxis are available at virtually any hour.
