It is surrounded by lush landscaping and is part of a privately monitored complex of only 10 such homes.

Neither the high walls nor the gate allow visibility inside the villa& premises - the villa has been designed for security, privacy and comfort. Adjacent to the outdoor shower is an outside storage closet where you will find beach toys and chairs for your convenience. There is ample room to store rented bicycles safely within the wall. Rental includes one reserved parking space, and there is additional free parking on the paved street outside the complex. The entire first floor is easily accessible with no steps between the front door, first floor king bedroom with en suite bathroom and shower, kitchen/dining and pool areas. The full-size American-style kitchen is equipped with a gas stove, oven, microwave, coffee maker, dishwasher, garbage disposal and even a large kitchen island.

I felt like I was able to catch up on 3 weeks worth of sleep. Very peaceful. Bring all your toiletries as they only provide a bar of soap.

I don't like downgrading a place because of things that aren't totally it's fault or when they are darn responsive to fix what they can. That being said, I also feel if I would have read a couple of these things in a review I would have been more informed as to whether I wanted to book this place or not.
First the good: great having 3 big bedrooms for married couple with two teens. We all had our own space and bathroom (and an extra one in hall). Kitchen had all basic equipment stuffs that we wanted as travelers. And washer/dryer is always a huge help when we stayed 10 days. And (as you'll read) we had some issues with place, the staff was very responsive - even late on a Saturday.
That being said: everything is darn just ok. The couch and two of the three mattresses were very hard. The couch was also pretty dusty (over-sensitive allergy nose here). There weren't any spices or anything like that to cook with. Not even a welcoming bottle of water. And most surprising, not really any soap/shampoo (although there was laundry soap). A few teeny soap bars for family of 4 staying for 10 days (although there is a market easy walking distance). The pool (which helped sell us) got darn dirty (leaves; bird poop) fairly quickly and became less of a selling point by the time we left.
The other bad stuff perhaps was a result of "bad day." We got there, the water didn't work. We called fairly late on a Saturday and they said "can we come tomorrow." We said, no because we had 4 stinky/thirsty/bathroom needing folks. Big Plus: they came pretty quickly and fixed issue easily. Also helped show us how to use TV and promised to comeback to get WIFI better.
Other down sides: wifi never worked well; mostly worked in main bedroom where router is and bedroom above. Place is further from town that we expected (perhaps our fault, but still to me part of rating). After two days, we ended up renting golf cart ($60/day) to reduce the 20 minute or so walk to the city area (not bad once a day, but when you want to shower after beach or take a rest or whatever and find yourself going back and forth, it's a bit far).
Overall, I might book place again. I'd just be aware of distance to city and budget for a golf cart, know that it's not a luxury rental and remind myself issues come up.
In the end, they were very responsive to issues and even refunded us a small amount to compensate. So I think 4 stars is fair. Might go 4.25 if there was such a thing.

The only issue was that there was no Internet access despite that it was advertised as available. It should be clear that there is not access, or access should be provided for an additional fee. The property manager wasn't even aware that the property owner takes the router home so guests can't use their wireless!
Manager responded on 10/30/2013:
There is now Wi-Fi access in this unit. There is a router for guests. Thanks!

We love the privacy and location of this villa. This is our 3rd visit and the first time we have noticed things like torn screens in the bathrooms(especially in the buggy season) and the dishwasher was out of commission the entire 2 weeks.

This is our second stay at Cerce del Mar in Tamarindo and loved every minute! This is the only place my husband can forget about work completely without phones or internet. We love the private pool where you never have to leave and the secret gardens but, too many great restaurants (favs, Ursula's, Taco Stop). Great new AutoMercado grocery store since the last time we were there with gourmet quality meats and vegetables and a good liquor dept. A perfect getaway for 2 easygoing, friendly couples.
