We stayed here a few weekends back. A room for two with a private bathroom & A/C was 15,000 colones ($30). FTs is across the street from Witch's Rock Surf Camp, which is right in front of the beach. The location is central to the beach, bars, restaurants, etc. The room was in good condition. The floor, linens, bathroom, etc.... More

Pro: Had clean sheets and AC. Great food, great location. Working wi fi. Cons: a few roaches, smelled terrible near bathrooms, slow bad service (most of Costa Rica is though). Loud at night and worried about the safety of our stuff in rooms.

I stayed at FTs for an extended period of time when I was in between homes here in Tamarindo. The staff is super nice and accommodating (providing coffee before restaurant opening hours, and cleaning your room when you choose). The place is located right on the main road, directly across the beach, and in the center of town. The rooms... More

Apparently the staff will host random parties when they choose. I'm writing this review because it is 10 min to midnight, on a Sunday of all nights, and the base of the stereo is still pumping - even after registering a complaint to the staff. Absolutely no sense of customer service. And having spent 3 years coming and going to... More

Just spent some time in Tamarindo and FT's is a great spot. The food is excellent and very reasonably priced. Burrito's are very good (had a few of these) and the menu has alot of options. All-in-all a great spot and it's open pretty late for the area (11pm).

This place has the perfect blend between Costa Rica and the USA. The rooms are spacious and offer everything needed for a trip to the beach! Also its a short walking distance from the beach, the nightlife (bars, clubs, etc) and many restaurants in the area. As for the food, it was AMAZING. Their menu offers typical costa rican food...

The hostel is ideally located right in the middle of Tamarindo and directly across the street from the beach. The burritos are huge and their beer is some of the cheapest in town. I give the spot high marks for location and dining, however as a place to stay it was a bit interesting. Our room was behind the kitchen... More

The location was great. It's right across the street from the beach. Couldn't be better unless it was on the beach. The staff was always nice. The room was nothing great. The AC was cold and the room also had a fan. They don't clean the rooms regularly during your stay. In fact, the don't clean them at all nor... More
