Located on the south end of Tamarindo beach, you have some privacy and your own beach retreat. Rooms have a kitchenette which helps to keep costs down. However, the closest store is a 1/2 mile walk and quite expensive...and this is for anything you might need. The hotel has no restaurant, bar or store, so plan accordingly. We really enjoyed out stay but wish I'd known to plan ahead.

Awesome hotel and staff. They have a grill so we cooked some Mahi we caught and served everyone around pool, great time. Great beach access and a little less crowded area.

Remote to the point of being secluded yet walking distance to shopping. Quicker to restaurants and shopping by walking on the beach than on the street side. Had slight air-conditioning issue and it was quickly resolved or else everything was great. Excellent beach views, abundant security and staff. Would definitely consider booking again should I return to the area.

Perfect location in Tamarindo
A lovely boutique beach spot right on Playa Tamarindo! The Coast is situated far enough from the central chaos of Tamarindo but within walking distance to the restaurants, bars and shops. Breakfast options are chosen upon arrival and are brought to the room. The breads and fruits were a perfect light meal for us in the mornings. The staff is warm and helpful and the rooms are cleaned very well. While it’s not a perfectly new hotel, the staff works hard to keep it clean and welcoming. There’s a great restaurant across the street with a bakery attached. We really enjoyed our stay and will return.

We booked this after looking at reviews which are very accurate. Its a small hotel with a very nice pool, because of the size, we got to know other guests which was fun. It is a short walk into the center of town which was great. Lots of amazing restaurants. The property is well maintained. No bar or restaurant which was fine for us. The room had an apt size fridge and microwave, as well as 2 burner cooktop. This was very convenient for heating up leftovers, if you stop at a supermarket prior to coming into town center (there are several), it would be easy to get things to have for lunch, etc. Breakfast was exactly as others have described- nice fresh fruit, coffee, cereal, bread (theres a toaster) and yogurt. Plenty for a light breakfast. Tamarindo is a fun beach town, the beach is not a white sand beach as there is a lot of runoff, so the water in the rainy season is somewhat brownish, but still pretty sunsets and nice for walking. There are plenty of loungers to sit either at pool or near beach. The price was reasonable and worth it if you want a low key, more boutique like hotel.

We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. It is a short walk to downtown Tamarindo yet far enough away from the town that it was quiet. We loved having the beach access right there and you could easily walk to the beach. The beach area was kept very clean and nice padded lounge chairs to sit on. You could use boogie boards and other beach toys for free (except a small rental fee to use a surf board). The pool was small but great for what we needed. Both sunny and shaded areas to sit at and we loved the pool loungers in the water. We felt very safe as there was always a security guard or 2 around the property. Even though the breakfast was continental, it was great. Some variety to choose from and perfect for what we like to eat in the morning. We didn’t mind that there wasn’t a restaurant on site, as there were lots of restaurants within walking distance.
