Great location but busy.
A lovely hotel right in the heart of Tamarindo. Across the street from great restaurants, and just a very short walk to the beach. Unfortunately it rain the entire time we were here, but that’s the rainy season. and of course, what sounded like gunshots at 3 AM.

Central location, across from the beach, has a specious pool and a wiener dog on site that chases the iguanas. What more could you possibly want?

Right in the heart of town; beach and restaurants just steps away. Friendly staff, check in and check out very easy. Parking with locked gate at night. Little loud at night, but expected due to location.

This hotel is perfectly situated in the middle of town, without getting the noise of the nightlife not far away. Beautiful room with a small patio beside the pool. Staff were very courteous, friendly and helpful. Highly recommend it for women as it was secure and safe, without feeling “guarded”…

Would stay again!
Lovely hotel, perfect location and very kind staff. The hotel has 2 dogs, one big and small who are super cute, and are friendly but will generally ignore you and not be in your face if you don't want them to be. The pool had a few leaves/ bugs floating around and could be skimmed more often, but it was still perfectly fine to swim in.

Fantastic location and deal! Can’t wait to return!
This place was amazing! Literally on the main corner of the town, it was comfortable and welcoming after a hot day on the beach. We had a standard king that was on the bottom floor that opened out to the pool. It was very safe and contained. They locked the gates at night. Our bed was very comfortable with nice sheets and pillows. The walk in shower could fit a small family and there were ample cabinets for storage. There was a small fridge with ice in it which was wonderful. The decor was hand carved wood. We saw some negative reviews we want to refute. There was some construction noise during the day but we never heard our neighbors. Yes you need to bring beach towels but that’s normal at a hotel. There was a nice outdoor kitchen (pictured) where you could grill your own food. It’s in the middle of downtown but never seemed rowdy or unsafe. There was always someone on staff in the parking lot and entrance. The staff was incredible. The place was spotless. We are already booking another trip to stay here!
