“By far best hotel in Tamarindo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 23, 2012 via mobile

I stayed for the Tamarindo Beach Marathon, location is great since is close from the start line. Service was great, food was amazing and the rooms are very very comfortable. Loved the gardens and the strongest point is the hotel beach front location...beautiful pool right in front of one of the nicest white sand beaches in Costa Rica...had an amazing Bloody Mary just watching the pacific ocean...watchout for the magpie jays trying to steel your food..very cute...the only negative aspect and is not part of the hotel is the tamarindo roads...very embarrasing for me as a tico to see tourists struggling on those muddy and horrible "roads"

Stayed September 2012, traveled as a couple

“great experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 22, 2012

We were there during july 4th week and everything was amazing. We stayed for 7 days at this location. The property is beautifull and the people are very nice. The food is probably some of the best seafood we have ever eaten. The free breakfast buffet was very good. Plenty of food to choose from, just watch out for the birds when you getting up to get a drink, they will take your food.

The property is located near the end of the beach so there aren't a lot of people on it, which was a good plus for us. There is a supermarket about a 15 minute walk towards town, and the rest of the shopping is about another 5 minutes away from there.

jojo the monkey is probably one of the more memorable things from the trip. We would go every morning to the common area near the help desk to play with him. He is not shy, so watch out for your stuff, or it may be gone. In my case he took the #1 key from my laptop. But for only $10(replacement key) I will have the memory from that hilarious moment for the rest of my life.

“Amazing Property...with Amazing Staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 17, 2012

The property was very nice. The rooms didn't have AC, but the ocean breezes and ceiling fans were perfect. The restaraunt was probably the best food we had all week in Tamarindo. The staff were so friendly and nice. Rosa was helpful at getting us everything we needed and George (and Ingrid) were kind enough to take us to the "Farm" where we were able to play with the monkeys and racoons. It was amazing!

Room Tip: get a second floor room, they have nice balcony's that include gas lamps for ambience. Also up t...
