We stayed at the Diria for an entire weeks and we loved it! The location is perfect. Right in town, conviniently located close to shops and restaurants but yet right on the beautiful beach of Tamarindo. The staff was very friendly and welcoming and we loved the restaurant located a footstep away from the the ocean. The free large breakfast... more

By far the swankiest hotel on the strip, this centrally located hotel is, if nothing else, convenient. We would not have stayed here, but we were able to book a last minute cheap deal on an ocean front room about a week before. Even with the discount and deal, the place was over-priced. The best thing about the place is... more

If you don't need the nice pools and buffet breakfast, save your cash. But it sure was convenient with our 2 year old toddler to have breakfast on demand at 600 AM when we awoke everyday for our 6 night stay at hotel. Also to have a well maintained kiddie pool that was comfortable from 6AM to 8PM, and a... more

At first, we were so happy to find this hotel. Great location, a fabulous internet booking deal of $50/food each day, a tour desk, great beach and a free breakfast buffet. HOWEVER, when we went to check out we got completely F-ed on the internet booking special of $50/food. The said they didnt have a special like that, even though... more

Luxurious hotel, with poor customer service in a commercialized beach town. Expensive stay and dinner for a trip in Costa Rica but the location and view is phenomenal. Beach access straight from the hotel which is great for surfing and sun bathing. Walking distance to restaurants, bars and clubs. Complimentary breakfast buffet was the best out of all the four... more

We loved Costa Rica, but will not likely return to the Tamarindo Diria. The beach and grounds were lovely, but the rooms are average and the service needs a lot of work. Prior to our trip, I had read in tour books to watch for pickpocketers in Tamarindo. However, the only one who robbed us was this hotel. Upon check-out,... more

Sure its an insane beachfront location but the rooms especially the showers are in very poor shape. You pay top dollar here always even if the place is empty; very poor, cold attitude of the front desk staff. they dont care what the issue is because dozens of drones come there on prebooked tours. more

Ellen Zoe Golden, Public Relations Manager

While you may not think much of our clientele, we do. Those people you referred in your note directly answer your negative commentary in the very fact that dozens of people come to our hotel on pre-booked tours. This is a regular occurrence at the Tamarindo Diria Beach & Golf Resort. On top of that, we have a 40% return...

This is by far the nicest hotel on the strip. It is downright gorgeous and you will not be disapointed. The service is great, the food is great, the drinks are great... if only it were all-inclusive! We stayed at the Diria after spending 4 days hiking, ziplining, and sightseeing in other cities. By the time we arrived at the... more

I've been to Guanacaste, Costa Rica six times in eight years, stayed in Tamarindo four times and stayed at the Diria three of those times. I've done lots of research on hotels in Tamarindo and spent several weeks there and can honestly say the Diria is the best all-around hotel in Tamarindo. Its located on the best beach in the... more

Stayed here for 6 nights at the end of our Costa Rica tour. We were ready for R&R and we certainly got that. The location is perfect, right on Tamarindo beach, where you can watch the most spectacular sunsets. There was 4 in our party and we had a room with a view of the beach. The room was a... more
