Everyday life in Tamarindo

Everyday life in Tamarindo

Everyday life in Tamarindo
I love the Saturday morning Tamarindo farmer/artisan market. Its held within sight of the glistening Pacific ocean and there is plenty of shelter from the sun from the 100-year-old Guanacaste trees.

To be honest I don't buy too much. I wander round catching up on gossip and seeing my Tamarindo friends. We are such an amazingly diverse group, from so many different countries, today they were: American, Canadian, Italian, Costa Rican, British and Spanish. Such a cosmopolitan bunch, all of us just livin the dream.

 

I think that it what its all about, everyone is so HAPPY because everyone in this town is here because they want to be. Most people don't live here year round, I am in town more than most because I have Coldwell Banker Tamarindo to run, but many are in Costa Rica a few months of the year with a plan to spend more time here as work and family commitments allow. The weather is perfect ten months of the year–it rains in September October–but being from England I like that too!


The market has a bit of everything, natural medicines from the rainforest, fruit and veggie stand with some fruits I have never seen before, handmade jewelry, local charities raising money for good causes, lots of delicious sweet goodies, locally arts and crafts, and lots of natural products.

 

Many people just end up standing around chatting with friends and planning the weekend. Its all about the community here. Everybody is so friendly and its really easy to meet like minded people and make friends.

While my computer is still running here, I'd like to take the opportunity to thank you for your help during our stay.
When we first came to your office, we were in dire straights and in desperate need of assistance. Andrea was extremely compassionate, spoke with candor, and had a "can do attitude" that was of immense help.
In addition, Andrea has put us in contact with Steve, with whom we are working, preparing to view a little property that might be just what we are looking for at this particular time.
In addition, having gotten to know Andrea personally as well as professionally has been our great pleasure. I wanted to let you know what a tremendous asset she is to your company. She is a great treasure -- a one in a million.

We had so much fun at Buena Vista. Thanks for arranging that with Memo.
I also want to say many thanks for all that you have done. We have enjoyed Costa Rica and I have found you so helpful with everything and a pleasure to deal with that it was a very stress free vacation. When I do come back here hopefully you will still be doing what what you do.
Our last couple of days will be spent enjoying the sunshine and eating at great restaurants. Sincerely,

Tara, Kevin and Roy., Costa Rica

Laurel and Tony,
The both of you were fantastic with us throughout the property search and purchase process. As we had mentioned, two other attempts to find thorough, attentive, responsive agents to work with in Tamarindo were failures. I expect that we are more work to deal with than many others as we asked a lot of thorough and analytical questions and expected responses to all of them. You two never failed to deliver. The organization and execution of our condo shopping trip in January was excellent and the fact that you two devoted 2 full days to us, around our schedule, to get this deal done was key to our success. The selection of properties that Laurel planned out, including a few places above and below our target zone helped us to refine our interests. We truly appreciated your interest in our success. This could easily have been very stressful for us, and yet, it wasn’t. Thank you very much.
As a side note, when we walked into the Coldwell Banker office randomly with no appointment in November had we not found your office staff patient and accommodating from the start we would have simply walked on to the next agency. Your staff deserves special mention for getting us interested in the agency to begin with.
We will give you some advance notice before we make our first trip down so that we can plan to get together for lunch or dinner. We are tentatively planning on somewhere in the last 2 weeks of May, as soon as our son gets out of school for the summer.
