“Idyllic”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2013

This is a gorgeous spot. The beach and pool are truly beautiful and it's hard not to enjoy yourself here. The tours and spa services offered are excellent, and overall the food is pretty good although a bit expensive. Service is spotty and I would say is the only downside. Some of the people working here are real gems but others don't seem to realize that if they treat people kindly, they will want to come back and tell their friends to come too.

Room Tip: If you have trouble walking, the tropical suites are a steep hike up a lot of steps from the beach a...

“So Awesome!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 18, 2013

We visited here on our honeymoon in October. October is the end of the rainy season, and the hotel was EMPTY! It was cool being the only couple there for a few days. We were on first name basis with some of the staff and kind of had special treatment. We had a free upgrade to a tiki suite which was ocean front overlooking the yoga deck and surf- heavenly! Granted, the weather was not optimal, and because it was the down time, they were working on improvements, refinishing wood, concreting, sawing etc. But we did not mind. Another downside is the place is a little isolated, but we did not mind. The resort is accommodating. The excursions they helped us book were GREAT: ziplining and the boat tour. Both awesome fun times. Costa Rica is a wonderful place and this resort helped us to have a wonderful experience.

Room Tip: Ocean front all the way!

“Costa Rica Heaven”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 29, 2013

Our stay at the Tango Mar was a complete delight! Hilde is a very gracious hostess, loved meeting her. We had a terrific stay and waking up to the ocean was indescribable! <as i live in Montana, no ocean close!> The food and the staff at this hotel are incredible. I would highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing delightful place to stay. We were only there for three nights but could have stayed longer!

“Relaxing, Remote Getaway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 28, 2013

Love the owner, love the staff, LOVE the food they made for me (I'm a gluten-free vegetarian, and every night the chef made me new, exciting and really delicious meals. It was exquisite.), love the drinks, and hammocks and pools and beachfront location. This isn't the Four Seasons or The Ritz-- it's beautiful, classy, clean and well appointed, but it's also smaller, more intimate and a little rustic, so you should come expecting that. It's also in a very remote area-- don't plan on walking anywhere from the hotel. But the grounds are beautiful enough to entice you to stay there all day, and if you have some extra money to spend on outings, there are great ones. The snorkeling trip to Tortuga Island was MAGICAL. The beach. Oh my god. Crystal clear, warm, aquamarine water, white sand softer than you've ever felt, barely anyone there... I can't recommend it enough.

I don't recommend the private yoga-- overpriced and not challenging at all. But everything else was really wonderful. Great service, great people and those hammocks-- we must've spent hours lying under the palm trees, watching the waves and the sunsets. So beautiful and relaxing. We stayed in a Tiki Suite and while we did experience a few tiny bugs, the staff was great about helping us out and we recognize that when you're in a remote area surrounded by forest, that's gonna happen. Not a big deal. Don't come here if you're looking for nightlife or a bustling town to walk to. However, there are other places on the Peninsula for that, so you can easily stop here for some relaxation and then move on. You should definitely come here for rest, sunsets, hammocks, good food, a swim up pool bar with amazing drinks and a sweetheart bartender named Eduardo. You can also hike to a waterfall! Pretty awesome.

It's slightly overpriced. But it's a safe, clean beautiful beachfront hotel with good, accommodating people working there and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay before moving on to Santa Teresa.
