There was a cockroach, the shower was broken, and I couldn't even control the water temperature. And most of the time, there wasn't even anyone at the front desk... The only good thing was that it was close to the beach. Oh, and the people who worked there were nice, I guess. ##### Osvaldo Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Meagan Jan 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place to stay! I stayed on the ocean side bottom floor and it was so amazing to be able to walk right to the beach. The room was very clean and had everything I needed. The staff was very nice as well. TV didn't really work, but that's fine because I wasn't in CR to watch TV. Walkable to the entire town. The only thing you need to note is that this is absolutely NOT soundproof like the listing says. I heard everything outside as well as in the next rooms and upstairs. ##### Meagan Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Luz Sep 10, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Terrible! We got there 2:30 PM . No one in the reception area to check us in. We finally found the owner, Sandy, in 5e back room where she lives. Got to the room, and we decided we didn’t want to stay there. My wife and I called Expedia to moves to another hotel,we called them 3 times, and Expedia told us that we can not move unless the owner agrees. So we decided to stay in, and the next day Sandy confront me and my wife as to why we called expedi? Then the next day I went into the a fragile safe box that was in the hotel,where we kept the passports and money. Hold and behold! A $ 100 dollar bill was missing from the safe!,,,,,,,, We decided not to confront Sandy, we were not feeling safe in that place. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE NEXT GUESNOT,NOT TO GO THERE!!, horrendous Service,not to mention we got robbed.! ##### Luz Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Dec 20, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Would not stay again Was told at check in that there was a private party on site and we would be refunded due to the inevitable noise disruptions. Since then, the owner has refused to refund us despite offering to in the first place and has ignored our attempts at communication (she was very welcoming and helpful prior to this). The room itself was basic, which was fine, but the small towels and thin bedding did not appear to be cleaned or they were just extremely old. The mattresses were thin and they sank when you sat on them. I also bruised myself on the wooded bed frame because it stuck out in the limited space. The piping in the bathroom was all out in the open and the toilet leaked on occasion after flushing. There were very few electrical sockets in the room, in fact there was one and it was sticking out of the wall. The room was never cleaned in the three nights that we stayed in, and the owner told us at check in that her cleaning staff may steal our money if we left it out. As such, we put money in the safe (which was key locked, not PIN locked) and $30 still went missing. Finally, the "city view" that was advertised with our room was merely just a view of the street outside. That said, the hotel is on the beach front, iguanas were frequently on site and there is an unaffiliated restaurant attached to the property. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Michael Mar 14, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ok... So the access to the beach was nice. Sadly it's ridiculously hot in the back as there is no airflow near the building. The room was highly disappointing. Nothing like pictures. Mold in bathroom and main room. Dead bugs squished on walls. No cups in room for water or anything. Shower was horrible most of the time as hot water was non existent at first, then excruciating the next day and could not get it to cool down at all. There was a used toothpick under the bedsheet. The towels especially and blanket on the bed were rags. Had 1 face cloth for the entire week we stayed. Parking was precarious and sketchy right on the road. One couple that started 2 nights next to us had money stolen from them their last night. Crazy dogs next door (possible the owners dogs) woke us up every morning but the last one before 6am. The locks on the doors of the rooms are terrible to operate and I had to help a couple other guests get there's to lock since I figured out mine after 2 days being frustrated with it. We did not see the sheets changed between guests in either room next to ours and the guests changed almost every day. The restaurant next door, which is NOT PART OF THE HOTEL, does play music until 10 or 11pm, but they were very nice and have great service and amazing food. They informed us that the hotel is being bought by another hotel owner and there are plans to clean up and renovate the current hotel and premises. I recommend that people only stay here if you have to. ##### Michael Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Dale Oct 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Room was clean and a/c was good ##### Dale Stayed 15 nights in Oct 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Thomas Oct 22, 2025 I hate Expedia ##### Thomas Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephen Jul 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Was a really nice hotel, perfect location. ##### Stephen Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria jose Apr 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Es muy céntrico y buenas condiciones ##### Maria jose Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Leonardo Apr 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Pésimo servicio y atención del personal. El costo muy caro para lo que realmente es ##### Leonardo Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Oliver Mar 30, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service #### Nicht gerade ruhig, mit niedrigen Ansprüchen ok Direkt am Strand ohne viel tamtam. An der Rezeption ist morgens niemand. Nachmittags und abends manchmal. Sauberkeit ist mittelmässig und wer Ruhe sucht sollte ausserhalb von tamarindo bzw. nicht an der Hauptstrasse suchen. Nachtclub crazy monkey ist gegenüber und Motorrad-Proleten fahren bis in die Nacht mit lauten Maschinen und viel Zwischengas. ##### Oliver Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert Mar 22, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort For the price and location it was very nice. But if you are looking to have dinner take the minute walk towards town many restaurants The restaurants that is there is expensive and not very good. ##### Robert Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ken Mar 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Ez access to the beach. ##### Ken Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Mar 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Need way better signs out front!!!!!

Can't do much about a noisy neighbor...maybe a temporary thing. Staff wonderful, place very clean and great view out the window. Good value! ##### Michael Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### steve Feb 26, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The chambermaid Marta was great The rest of the other than two people were the worst staff in my coming to tamarindo for 15 years. People working behind the bar and the receptionist didn't even say hi when I entered the lobby. Really sad. ##### steve Stayed 12 nights in Feb 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Makanda by the Sea](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Makanda-By-The-Sea.h2328562.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Magic Mountain SPA & Conference center](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Hotel-Magic-Mountain-SPA-Conference-Center.h1636277.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenal Observatory Lodge & Trails](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Arenal-Observatory-Lodge-Spa.h11820519.Hotel-Information) > > [Kura Boutique Hotel Member of the Cayuga Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Dominical-Hotels-Kura-Boutique-Hotel.h5637504.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Boutique Casa Del Rio](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Casa-Del-Rio.h27603041.Hotel-Information) > > [Borinquen Thermal Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Canas-Dulces-Hotels-Borinquen-Thermal-Resort.h1155801.Hotel-Information) > > [Nammbú Beachfront Bungalows](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Carrillo-Hotels-Nammbu-Beachfront-Bungalows.h11459871.Hotel-Information) > > [Crocs Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-Crocs-Resort-Casino.h8741357.Hotel-Information) > > [Azul Hotel & Retreat](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Azul-Hotels-Azul-Ocean-Club-Hotel.h6776980.Hotel-Information) > > [Buena Vista del Rincon Eco Adventure Park, Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Canas-Dulces-Hotels-Buena-Vista-Del-Rincon-Eco-Adventure-Park.h1858721.Hotel-Information) > > [Rio Perdido Hotel & Thermal River](https://www.expedia.ca/Fortuna-Hotels-Rio-Perdido-Hotel-Thermal-River.h6371123.Hotel-Information) > > [Nosara Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Nosara-Hotels-Nosara-Beach-Hotel.h32722062.Hotel-Information) > > [Cala Luna Boutique Hotel & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Tamarindo-Hotels-Cala-Luna-Boutique-Hotel-Villas.h1118539.Hotel-Information) > > [The Gilded Iguana Surf Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Nosara-Hotels-The-Gilded-Iguana-Surf-Hotel.h22186079.Hotel-Information) > > [La Mansion Inn Arenal](https://www.expedia.ca/Arenal-Hotels-La-Mansion-Inn-Arenal.h8254135.Hotel-Information) > > [Lost Iguana Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Lost-Iguana-Resort-And-Spa.h1174121.Hotel-Information) > > [Capitán Suizo Beachfront Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tamarindo-Hotels-Capitan-Suizo-Beachfront-Boutique-Hotel.h1140010.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Guanacaste Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Liberia-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Liberia-Airport.h2211738.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Boutique Lagarta Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Nosara-Hotels-Hotel-Boutique-Lagarta-Lodge.h12324224.Hotel-Information) > > [The Retreat Costa Rica - Wellness Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Atenas-Hotels-The-Retreat-Costa-Rica-Wellness-Resort-Spa.h10447279.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Boyeros](https://www.expedia.ca/Liberia-Hotels-Hotel-Boyeros.h11268329.Hotel-Information) > > [SoulShine](https://www.expedia.ca/Tamarindo-Hotels-SoulShine.h46292420.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin](https://www.expedia.ca/Curubande-Hotels-Hotel-Hacienda-Guachipelin.h1122531.Hotel-Information) > > [Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Samara-Hotels-Azura-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h20586535.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Jaco Beach All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-Best-Western-Jaco-Beach-All-Inclusive-Resort.h54703.Hotel-Information) > > [Socialtel Nosara](https://www.expedia.ca/Nosara-Hotels-Selina-Nosara.h32620956.Hotel-Information) > > [Bodhi Tree Yoga Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Nosara-Hotels-Bodhi-Tree-Yoga-Resort.h10650362.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Playa Samara Beach Front Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Samara-Hotels-Villas-Playa-Samara-Beach-Front-Resort.h888268.Hotel-Information) > > [Occidental Tamarindo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Tamarindo-Hotels-Occidental-Tamarindo-All-Inclusive.h793778.Hotel-Information)
