It is not unusual for the water company to have rolling shut offs to help conserve and replenish the water tables. This property does have a dedicated backup holding tank for these times, but we ask that everyone protect the environment and do not overuse this precious resource. Turn off faucets when brushing your teeth or cleaning dishes, reuse your towels, do not use the washing machine unnecessarily or to wash a single item, and let us know right away if there is a leak or running toilet! Retractable Laundry line is located to the right outside the front door. It is not unusual for the power or internet to go out on occasion. Please be patient as it will come back on. Insects & Wildlife This is a tropical country, so you can expect to see a couple of ants here and there, even inside. If you notice many inside, please let us know and we will put out ant-traps. Ants outdoors do a ton for the environment, so please leave them to their busy work! Yes, there are cockroaches in Costa Rica and on rare occasions, you may see one inside. Seeing one indoors does not mean the place is dirty. They will enter if they have been disturbed by construction or spraying (which is done 3 or 4 times a year). They are not like North American cockroaches and seeing one does not mean an infestation. They are not social and don’t live in groups (called an intrusion). There is cockroach spray in the property or feel free to step on it. Please do not leave food or garbage outside. We do have racoons and skunks in Costa Rica that will tear apart the trash. Fun Info: Calie is the local kitty we all tend to take care of. Any scraps, feel free to give them to her. She is very shy. Just place it next to the stairwell while she is watching and she will get to it. Other things to note Tamarindo is my Happy Place and I want to share with you!

Always keep an eye on your things and lock up when you are out. If you do take a vehicle to the beach, put valuables out of sight or, better yet, leave them at the condo.
