About Bruce McKillican
When Bruce McKillican first traveled to Costa Rica for surfing, he fell in love with Tamarindo – so much so that he sold his chiropractic practice and moved his family there. What began as a personal journey evolved into a thriving business when Bruce saw an opportunity to redefine vacation rentals in the area. Today, Stay in Tamarindo is a full-service hospitality brand, offering in-house concierge services, private transportation, exclusive tours, and even a fleet of golf carts to ensure every stay is seamless.
