They have a master bedroom with an extra patio upstairs, on the 4th floor, where the roofline statues are located. <br /><br />As long as you are studying the details of the photo, I will point out that our condo is on the 2nd floor with the balcony just above the spot where the dead tree trunk on the beach is pointing. <br /><br />We like the 2nd floor location. The 3rd/4th floor units are 3 bedrooms and quite a bit more expensive. The 2nd floor provides a better view and more privacy than the ground floor units. And our floor is the ground level on the parking lot side of the building, so it is a short, straight walk to our front door, which is much more convenient when carrying groceries, taking in luggage, etc. <br /><br />I agree with you that the condos do blend with the environment. I thought initially that the pumpkin and mustard color of our condo was a little bold, but it has grown on me. There is even another pumpkin and mustard color condo a block or so away from the beach. <br /><br />In the future I will show photos of the "skyline" of the center of Tamarindo. There is a large new condo building that (unfortunately in my opinion) is painted white. It stands out too much from the green hillsDave-CostaRicaDailyPhoto.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567583999945259422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486504529519277316.post-58810215075229031162009-06-06T08:15:02.035-07:002009-06-06T08:15:02.035-07:00The beach looks so inviting partly because you cou...The beach looks so inviting partly because you could almost have it to yourself.
