Beautiful location
Very romantic for couples
Excellent and friendly service and the food was presented beautifully and so delicious.
The owner stopped by our table at dinner both nights and graciously told us the story behind the resort… would definitely recommend!

The property is beautiful and you definitely get the sounds of the ocean. Disappointing that the pool closes at 6pm as there isn't much else to do in the evening unless you leave the property. Seems like a miss as there are mostly adults here.

This hotel has beautiful grounds and that’s about all it has going for it. The staff was not helpful or willing to serve you. We couldn’t book any excursions. The pools were dirty and so was our room. The restaurants and food were awful! Just awful!! A one and done for us.

We had a really nice time at Tango Mar for a week. The resort is really nice, the staff are very kind, and the food/drinks are delicious. Highly recommend the tortuga snorkeling tour with Juan and Curu wildlife reserve visit with Ernesto (my favorite).
The resort is quite isolated so my only change would be to split staying here and somewhere else on the peninsula (ex: Santa Teresa or Samara/Nosara) to get a more diverse experience. Transportation between the two can get quite expensive.
Thank you, Tango Mar, Pura Vida!

I have travelled to costa rica many times and this was one of the most exquisite locations I've ever seen, The thundering sound of the ocean waves along with the incredible pink sunrises can not even truly be described with words. Everything was magical and the inclusive breakfast was also very nice. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and it is a place I will be back to soon! The golf course was also great and a good daytime activity for all skill level golfers.

This hotel is a dream to be in. Waking up to the sound of waves, opening your window to a stunning ocean view, lay down in a hammock for a nap, taking a dip in the cool cristaline water. This is what life is all about.
The restaurant was not that good, and there are very few dinning options around the area, which was the only part that we felt could use improvement.

A lovely sleepy Costa Rican hotel.
A lovely independent hotel. The staff could not be more helpful and it has an old style family atmosphere.
It also lies on one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica.
The food was good and tasty if not a little safe. But the cessar salad made in front of you, was a really surprising win.
We were there for two days over new years. On the negatives, we are not golfers or tennis players, so that was lost on us. But there was a lovely waterfall and sunrise/sunset viewpoint attached to the property. Decor could do with a minor facelift and my only critique of the staff is that they could be a little inattentive at times. Although, their warm attitude toward each other also extends to all the guests.

The resort grounds are beautifully manicured, the staff were so friendly, food was good. Our accommodations in the Tiki hut was spacious, we had a nice ocean view and it was well kept. We walked the property and saw white face monkeys and a waterfall on the ocean's edge. It was a pleasure staying in this resort. We would definitely return.

We booked this property on the back end of our vacation to Costa Rica and could not be happier with our choice. The staff and the owner make you feel right at home. The resort offers 3 pools, beautiful scenery, and wonderful food and drink options.
This is the place to stay if you need a serene get away with your special someone.
