My reason for going to Tamarindo was to have dental work while chasing the sun and sea. I needed a place that would support the rest and recovery I needed, especially as a single woman traveller. Hotel Pasatiempo was a great fit. Bibo26 gave a great summary of the room choices. I found the bed heavenly. Supportive, very nice bedding,... More

My husband and I have stayed here a few times and always had a good experience. We've stayed in all 3 room types (during the high season) and recommend you upgrade to the deluxe room for the extra $10/night, which is probably the best value, too. The wall separating the bathroom in our standard room didn't go to the ceiling,... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at this hotel for our six-night stay in Tamarindo and it was absolutely perfect. In college, I lived in Costa Rica for 6 months and traveled all over the country; with that said, Hotel Pasatiempo has been my absolutely favorite so far. It's affordable, very clean, comfy beds, nice bathrooms with hot showers, A/C that... More

What made our stay stressful were the French people who serve in the restaurant. They are rude and kept shouting at me and my friends (when I... More

Staff was super friendly, the breakfast was amazing, and everyone was so helpful. Stefan was great in setting up our daily adventures and even gave us an amazing reccommendation for a... More

I finished my Costa Rica trip after volunteering, at Hotel Pasatiempo for some serious relaxation! It was everything I could have asked for! Beautiful area by the pool, with the bar and amazing hotel restaurant - and breakfast included - which was fantastic! My room was excellent, clean and comfortable. It was walking distance from the main strip in Tamarindo,... More
