My fiance and I stayed here with her parents before our wedding in Playa Hermosa. The breakfast and grounds were perfect, the beach was within walking distance (with plenty of surf-shops, and restaurants minutes away), and the staff was super helpful. The beach was a great middle-ground beach, with tons of people learning to surf, bodyboard, etc. We had dinner... More

My wife and I stayed here during the last leg of our honeymoon trip in Costa Rica. The room was nice and clean with a great view of the ocean. What was even more ideal was that the property had a private walkway that took you right on to the main strip where there were tons of restaurants and shops...and... More

I stayed one night in this hotel while in Tamarindo. The hotel is pretty, peaceful, and clean but nothing crazy to write home about. The price was more than Hotel Diria which is a pretty fancy hotel on the beach. I enjoyed my stay and have no real complaints other than the price. Breakfast was included and was muy bueno.

Location: It's about a 150 meter walk down a private, gated walkway to the main street running through the Tamarindo strip. After crossing the main street, you're on the beach. Central location of this hotel also makes it an easy walk to all the restaurants and shopping along the strip. Service: Average front desk staff. They weren't overly friendly or... More

This was an ok hotel. It was more expensive than the Best Western Vista Villas and not as fun. The staff were all very nice and friendly. Professional, but I think they knew though that the room smelled like bug spray. Lots of it. And the room was swarmed with ants, which I got to go away using one of... More

This hotel refused to give us a superior room even though we paid for it. Reserving online in advance on Expedia, I paid extra for a Superior Room with a queen bed. When we arrived, the young front desk worker told us that only Standard Rooms were available, with a full bed. I looked at 2 of these rooms, which... More

“First of all it is important to clarify that you made the reservation through Expedia, was for a standard type room, which as shown in this site, do not overlook the ocean, and located on the first floor next to the gardens.

Hard to find hotel as it is tucked away up the hill and accessed by gravel road. The claim of 100 meters to beach is slightly exaggerated. Breakfast just ok, but did see monkeys in trees while eating in restaurant. Also in mango trees above private walkway to Main Street. Watch out for flying mangos, as the monkeys throw them... More

This place is a good value for the price. It had a very unique and nice interior. Very friendly staff. Servers at restaurant were a little slow. It is right in the middle of Tamerindo, across the street from the beach. The whole place is elevated on the hill overlooking the ocean. It is quite beautiful because the trees block... More
