Life in Tamarindo and nearby beaches
Tamarindo has restaurants, surf schools, a main beach and a lively small-town centre. Quieter beaches such as Playa Langosta and Playa Grande lie close by, and Liberia airport is roughly an hour away. Guanacaste has a pronounced dry season, so water and heat are practical issues; ask owners about wells, tanks and power outages.
If you want a different feel, compare Santa Cruz, Flamingo or the southern Pacific at Dominical.
What to know before buying
- Foreigners have the same property rights as citizens in Costa Rica, and can hold title personally or through a company.
- Land inside the 200 metres from the high-tide line is the maritime zone: the first 50 metres is public and the remainder is typically held by concession, not full title. Ask your lawyer to separate titled land from concession land.
- Transfer taxes and registration fees add several percent, and a small annual property tax applies.
- Use an independent attorney and check the Registro Nacional plan and encumbrances.

Buying property in Tamarindo: FAQ
Can a foreigner own beachfront in Tamarindo?
Not freehold within the maritime zone; it is generally a concession. Titled land just beyond it can be owned outright. A local lawyer must map this out.
Is Tamarindo good for rentals?
Tourism is the draw, but oversupply in some segments and seasonality mean income varies. Ask for real booking records.
Why are there so many lots?
Development in Guanacaste has long been built around plots sold for custom homes, so 213 of 538 listings are land.
What does it cost per square metre?
The median is €2,898, with larger, more rural houses lower and beach-walk condos higher.
Can I get a mortgage?
Costa Rican banks lend to foreigners on limited terms, so many buyers use cash or equity at home. See the mortgage calculator.
