Wellness Weddings: Celebrate Love and Rejuvenation in Nature
What if your wedding were about more than the single big day, but an entire weekend of love, wellness, and togetherness? That’s the beauty of getting married in Costa Rica, with the help of your Vacation Rentals in Costa Rica concierge, an expert Costa Rica wedding planner, and your wedding venue + accommodations.
Within the vibrant, tropical, and spectacular surrounds of Tamarindo, you can trade ballrooms for beaches, stress for sunshine, and stuffy receptions for starlit dinners. Imagine your vows on the sand at golden hour, morning yoga with your bridesmaids, surf lessons for the kids, and evenings gathered around a poolside feast. It’s more than a wedding – it’s your personal pura vida at its most joyful.
Why Tamarindo is Perfect for Your Wellness Wedding
There’s something about Tamarindo that makes it uniquely suited for wellness weddings. Maybe it’s the warm Pacific waters, where surfboards and paddleboards stand at the ready. Maybe it’s the national parks and nature trails, where howler monkeys call overhead as you wander beneath towering trees. Or maybe it’s the laid-back rhythm of Tamarindo itself, where no one is in a rush and everyone greets you with a smile.
Tamarindo is Costa Rica’s perfect blend of natural beauty and convenience. You’ll find yoga studios, organic cafés, boutique shops, and lively restaurants – all within walking distance of the beach and your villa venue. Add in our private villas, your families and friends can stay and celebrate together under one roof, and suddenly getting married in Costa Rica feels less like a logistical challenge and more like a dream made easy.
Private Villas for Comfort and Connection
When you choose Vacation Rentals of Tamarindo, you’re not just booking a place to stay – you’re creating a home base for your wedding celebrations. Our vacation homes are designed with groups in mind:
- Spacious living areas for family gatherings
- Pools and terraces perfect for afternoon lounging or evening cocktails
- Fully equipped kitchens for casual breakfasts and shared meals
- Multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, so everyone has space to unwind
For larger weddings, you can reserve several villas close together, turning Tamarindo into your private wedding village. Your guests will love the freedom and flexibility of staying in a villa rather than a resort, and you’ll love how it brings everyone closer together. These are the little moments – a morning coffee on the patio, cousins playing in the pool, friends cooking dinner together – that make you wedding weekend unforgettable.
The Role of a Costa Rica Wedding Planner
Even the most relaxed wedding needs someone to coordinate the details, and that’s where your Costa Rica wedding planner comes in. They’re the creative masterminds behind your celebration:
- Designing the ceremony décor
- Organizing the reception and catering
- Handling local logistics
- Coordinating photographers, florists, and musicians
Meanwhile, at Vacation Rentals of Tamarindo, we’ll take care of everything else. We arrange airport transfers so your guests arrive stress-free. We stock the fridge with groceries before anyone checks in. We book adventures – ziplining, catamaran cruises, horseback rides – that double as family bonding activities. We even bring in private chefs for poolside dinners or rehearsal-night feasts.
The result? A seamless partnership where your wedding planner makes the big day magical, while we ensure the days around it are filled with ease, fun, and pura vida.
Wellness Activities for You & Your Guests
Wellness weddings are about more than saying “I do.” They’re about celebrating in a way that leaves everyone feeling connected, refreshed, and energized. In Tamarindo, your guests can:
- Start mornings with beachfront yoga or guided meditation
- Join a cacao ceremony that connects local culture with mindful rituals
- Take surf lessons and feel the thrill of catching a first wave
- Explore estuaries and mangroves on kayaks, spotting wildlife along the way
- End evenings under the stars with firepits, music, or movie nights
These activities turn a wedding into a weekend-long retreat. Guests leave not only with memories of the ceremony, but with shared experiences they’ll talk about for years.
Shared Meals That Bring Everyone Together
Few things bond families like food, and in Costa Rica, meals are a celebration in themselves. Imagine starting your day with fresh tropical fruit and gallo pinto (breakfast rice and beans), then ending it with grilled seafood, ceviche, and handmade tortillas.
With Vacation Rentals of Tamarindo, you can keep it flexible. Some nights, hire a private chef to prepare a multi-course feast by the pool. Other nights, gather the group for a casual barbecue or wander into town for tacos and gelato. The point is that everyone gets to dine together, share stories, and savor flavors that capture the essence of Tamarindo and your celebration.
A Stress-Free, Memorable Wedding Weekend
Whether you’re envisioning a barefoot elopement or micro-wedding with just a handful of guests, or planning a grander destination affair that spans a few villas and several days of celebration, at Vacation Rentals of Tamarindo, we’ll make it possible.
At our top wedding villas, wellness isn’t an afterthought – it’s part of the experience. The ocean calms nerves, wellness activities set the tone, and pura vida keeps everyone grounded in joy. Here’s where to start your dream-day planning:
Tamarindo | 6 Beds | 6 Baths | Sleeps 16
Puesta del Sol, the Sunset House, is where sky and sea come together – and where you make your home base, as you explore and enjoy all the many things to do in Tamarindo. Have you dreamed of flying – of rising high, your arms spread, your hair blowing in the breeze, and your heart soaring, your body ablaze with exhilaration? Puesta del Sol is a little like that.
Set high on a hilltop overlooking the beach town of Tamarindo, this spectacular home delivers 300-degree panoramic views and architecture designed to amaze. Here, ocean breezes whip and race up the mountain, wrapping you in their refreshing chill. Here, the Pacific Ocean unfurls at your feet and swooping seabirds frame your view. Here, you’re floating above it all – almost flying, high above earth and sea, in a special paradise all your own.
Named for the sunset – or, more precisely, for the “setting of the sun” – Puesta del Sol is one of our most outstanding homes: upscale yet warm, both remarkable and welcoming. Oversized windows both frame the artwork of this view and beckon sunlight to steam indoors. An expansive infinity pool bids you to spend your mornings, your afternoons, your every moment on the terrace. Sliding glass doors blur the line between indoors and out.
8 Bedrooms | 8 Baths + 1 Half Bath | Sleeps 19
Certain aspects of life create that intangible essence of “something special” – and El Chante falls into that category, capturing that elusive quality that touches the heart in powerful ways. Welcome to the indescribable.
Spanning a vast, open-air, Balinese-inspired expanse, El Chante reveals itself through a labyrinth of paths and wooden stairways, interconnecting nine distinct structures, offering the promise of an all-encompassing experience that seamlessly blends common spaces with privacy. El Chante is a harmonious fusion of upscale amenities, expansive communal areas, a magnificent ocean-view swimming pool, and awe-inspiring vistas.
It is the embodiment of everything you desire, including the splendors of nature and some of Tamarindo’s most enchanting sunset views, overlooking Tamarindo Beach, the estuary, and the glistening Pacific. Immerse yourself in the cool shade beneath leafy trees, bask in the warmth of the sun, raise a toast to the afternoon, and then simply await the breathtaking spectacle as the sun graces the horizon, setting your panoramic view ablaze for another epic sunset.

Have a look at our five featured vacation rental recommendations for Tamarindo weddings and other special events. Each of these Tamarindo vacation rentals can sleep 20 or more guests, and are excellent venue options in and of themselves!
Casa Costa Blanca
Casa Costa Blanca is a recently-remodeled beachfront mansion for up to 24 guests in Hacienda Pinilla. If you’ve done your Tamarindo research, you already know that Hacienda Pinilla is the area’s premier gated community and an ideal place for a special event. This two-story home is unique in that each floor has a completely separate full kitchen and living/dining area, giving large groups exceptional flexibility while they share a single space.
Casa Costa Blanca
Behind the home, on the beach side, an oversized infinity pool, a barbeque and outdoor dining pavilion with enough seating for a full house, and a luxurious green lawn overlooking the crashing Pacific Ocean.
Casa Costa Blanca is one of our top 5 picks because not only is it big enough to accommodate a large number of guests, and not only is it spectacularly beautiful—it is a dream event venue in and of itself. Hold your small intimate wedding on the patio or hold a larger event on the lawn or in the sand. Casa Blanca offers all kinds of options because of its size and diverse spaces.
Casa Costa Blanca
Have private chefs prepare a meal in the home, or have your special meals catered—Casa Costa Blanca provides a mesmerizingly beautiful setting and the flexibility to let you choose what best suits you and your group.
Villa Tranquila
Villa Tranquila, also located in the gated community of Hacienda Pinilla, offers a level of service to its guests that no other vacation rental can match. Its staff is available to provide all meal preparation, and are accessible 24 hours a day to meet any needs that may arise.
Villa Tranquila
Villa Tranquila is located on Hacienda Pinilla’s golf course and close to the beach. Its delightfully secluded location means that at Villa Tranquila you are free to celebrate until the sun comes up and no neighbors will call to complain. It’s hard to underestimate how important that can be if your lively group loves to celebrate.
This beautiful villa offers the maximum in comfort to its guests, with large private rooms, private baths, and two indoor common areas. Outside, an immense lawn with a patio and infinity pool are a perfect place for your ceremony, event, and/or a special meal.
Our wedding and event planners know Villa Tranquila well and are waiting to make your special day the best it can possibly be.
Casa de Luz
Casa de Luz is a beachfront mansion for 23 located in Langosta, just at the end of the road that goes through Tamarindo. This luxury vacation rental, once a single-family home, combines the comforts of home with the convenience of its central location and the breathtaking beauty of the ocean just steps from the back door.
Casa de Luz has the back yard to die for. A stone terrace, a gazebo with a day bed, a wet bar, an infinity pool, a private beachside casita for two or four, and private beach access are all there outside the sliding door from the living room. The home’s staff makes sure that guests at Casa de Luz are comfortable and that events flow seamlessly.
Casa de Luz
This is one of the foremost eco-friendly homes in Guanacaste. Solar panels on the roof provide electricity, an ozone system eliminates the need for 90% of the chlorine in Casa de Luz’s swimming pool and laundry and Casa de Luz uses only Costa Rica’s top biodegradable housekeeping and hygiene products. If leaving a smaller ecological footprint is important to you and your loved ones, place Casa de Luz at the top of your list and reserve it early.
Villa Concha
Villa Concha is an elegant beachfront villa in Playa Langosta a few doors south of Casa de Luz. This property, in its two-story main house and two private casitas, can accommodate up to 20 guests. Originally constructed to house a bed and breakfast and recently remodeled to make it one of Tamarindo’s foremost event-friendly vacation rentals, Villa Concha is a perfect option for your destination wedding.
Villa Concha
Let our event planners take care of the details while you enjoy the beachfront infinity pool, walk the miles of beaches that stretch behind your back door at Villa Concha or paddle out into the pounding surf you can watch from home’s terraces. If your group is larger than what Villa Concha can accommodate, our other Langosta beach vacation rentals are just down the street and can keep your party close enough to enjoy your whole vacation together.
Villa Concha’s private beach access path leads from the impeccable pool terrace through the trees to a sandy lookout point. Consider this our recommendation for your sunset beach wedding, or an unforgettable early-evening cocktail hour where you can enjoy the privacy of your own home-away-from-home and the breathtaking beauty of dusk falling over the Pacific horizon.

Casa Puros Dieces
Puros Dieces is a stunning 8-bedroom Pacific Rim style home for up to 20 guests. It is perched on a green hillside just above the busy town of Tamarindo and admires a 180 degree of vista of the Tamarindo Bay. Casa Puros Dieces is the home nobody ever wants to leave, and it is an ideal option for lodging your wedding party and for the event itself.
Casa Puros Dieces
Indoor and outdoor spaces blend in the home’s common areas, with luxury bedrooms and en-suite baths offering complete privacy throughout the home’s maze of spaces. The beach and all that Tamarindo has to offer is just minutes away at the bottom of the hill, allowing guests at Casa Puros Dieces to enjoy the best of both worlds—the privacy of the secluded location and the proximity of the things you’re coming to Tamarindo to see and do!
Many wedding parties choose Casa Puros Dieces for the event venue instead of taking the special day to the beach or anywhere else. A courtyard lawn within the walls of Casa Puros Dieces, a living room that opens fully to the view of the bay, and a deck with an infinity pool provides plenty of space for celebration in the privacy of your own home.
Casa Puros Dieces
Puros Dieces offers sunset panoramas like no other. Sunset at the beach is spectacular, but Puros Deices sunsets, with all of Tamarindo Bay, Playa Grande, the Las Baulas Estuary and the town of Tamarindo at your feet raise the bar to a new level. No one who attends your wedding or other special sunset events at Casa Puros Dieces will ever forget the experience.
