Design, Innovate, Elevate | Tree Top Retreat – 13F

The Location

Tamarindo first gained popularity in the mid 90’s with the surf flick, The Endless Summer 2. Since then, there has been a steady growth of tourists and investors visiting the area. Tamarindo is located in the Guanacaste province of Costa Rica in the Northwest portion. It is the driest region of the country (300 days of sunshine yearly) and boasts the reputation of having the most beautiful beaches paired with incredible waves for surfers. You can walk from one end of Tamarindo to the other in about 20 minutes  with over 50 restaurants, bars, clinics, fine dining, yoga, boutique shopping, and grocery stores. Several bi-lingual private schools are within 30 min from Tamarindo center. Liberia International airport is 1 hour away and international bi-ligual schools are readily available.

The Development

Los Senderos is a private, gated community with sweeping views of the Pacific, the National Marine Park’s beaches and estuary, and the town of Tamarindo, Costa Rica’s surf capital. The mountain and valley homes were designed by internationally renowned architects with an environmentally sensitive aesthetic and ethos.  All properties designed in Los Senderos are built specifically for each terrain with no two alike. The “Natural Modern” design focuses on clean lines, uncluttered spaces, visual clarity and simplicity. The architects envision flat or low sloping roof lines versus peaked rooflines, structural elements exposed rather than hidden, open floor plans as opposed to strict room divisions. The intention of “no-two-alike” is exactly what creates an organic, natural population of homes. Every home is influenced by Natural Modern design, but like every custom home, the design style must also be interpreted and applied in a way that reflects the lifestyle, inspirations and desires of the client. Just outside the gates of Senderos are the region’s premier gourmet grocery, oceanfront dining and the Senderos Beach Club.

The Residence

Once again, the team at WR Architects have created a spectacular design for the Senderos Community on this jungle view home site that also features a “sneak peek” Ocean View from the rooftop terrace!

Four bedrooms and 3.5 baths complement an open plan layout, large, covered terrace and two car garage. A gourmet kitchen, outdoor BBQ area, top quality finishes, outdoor shower and more will have you living your best life here in paradise. The glass-front infinity pool is the jewel of this stunning home, with a gorgeous living wall and cascading water feature. The well-appointed rooftop terrace is set up perfectly to enjoy views of the beaches to the south and the jungle canopy below.

Well balanced and with the signature flair for everything “natural modern”, the Tree Top Retreat is a must see.
