    mornings are the best time here. Not too many people out, and not too hot! By sunset, the tide is in, and the beach is PACKED with people! Always enjoy these walk throughs!

    About 30-40 years ago, there were only about 3 restaurants and a few booths on the beach... now it's a more developed town... congratulations, great video; makes you want to go back to tamarindo beach...!!!

    I love these walk through videos! Very nicely done my friend! I have not been to Tamarindo since 1996. So much has changed, it is a totally different place! It was great to see Tamarindo again, such good memories there! Thanks for sharing!

    I was there in the summer of 97 so much has changed really interesting to see. I was there for a High school summer trip and me and some friends swim out to the island took us all day to get out there and back.

    Great walk through video! This is the first time I'm watching one where I'm Very Familiar with the town. This shows it exactly as it is. After recently spending a month there I have never seen the tide that far out, (and I never missed a sunset) when it's in, you see so much less and sometimes None of those Rocks. It would always make me worry about the surfers. Thanks for another Real video.

    hello! appreciate the walkthrough, if im going to be there in a few weeks, planning on staying in tamarindo for 3-4 days and then one other undecided city for 3-4 days within a few hours of tamarindo, how necessary and/or recommended is a rental car? thanks

    • @TheDufresnes
      @TheDufresnes  3 роки тому

      It's not necessary at all, shuttles are available from airport to your destination and anywhere in between then just walk or bike around. We can set shuttles up for you if needed. You should definitely come stay with us at Sea Casa here in Samara after tamatindo. Samara is a hidden gem that's super chill and has the best beach. Go to our website www.seacasasamara.com check out our rentals and we have videos about Samara on our videos page.

    How would you say the wifi is in tamarindo? Have they gotten the fiber optic yet? I've been looking to move to costa rica but I teach english online so thats been the only thing holding me back. Id prefer to stay away from the major cities tamarindo has always been one of my top choices

    • @TheDufresnes
      @TheDufresnes  3 роки тому

      Tamarindo is a busy place, we have fibre optic here in Samara so I would assume they have it in Tamarindo too. Bestbto join a Facebook group in Tamarindo and ask

    Tamarindo turned into a tourist trap. And the sand on the beach is brown and some areas darker brown.

      Yes I've now switched to wearing shoes because everyone complains, it's supposed to represent the same sounds and sights as if the viewer is there, usually wesring flip-flops

      Not sure on rent it varies in so many ways, we own so we aren't in that market. Best to contact property managers and ask them. In Samara it varies from 1000 to 2000 a month for something clean and not run down

    • @TheDufresnes
      @TheDufresnes  2 роки тому +1

      That's your opinion, most have said they enjoy it because it's a typical sound you hear when you walk around a beach town. That's the point of these videos, to put the person in the space. Glad you made this annoying comment on a free video.

    • @shaynadufresne
      @shaynadufresne 2 роки тому

      It's meant for true effect as if you were the one there walking through. Flip flops are a fact of life here in paradise. You're just jealous that you can't walk around in flip flops all day long! 😂 Your useless comment and bad attitude is very annoying. The fact that you actually watched this video put out to you for free and then decided to take the time leaving a stupid comment like you did about flip flops truly shows where you're at in life! Sad...
