Very family friendly with many activities. Meals included and conveniently located next to beach. Easy walk to town or $5 taxi ride. Rained at night but days were sunny or partly cloudy. Free WiFi, but not always easy to connect from room. Staff very helpful.

This was my 1st time visiting Tamarindo and decided to book 2 days "All-Inclusive" @ the Occidental. I was warmly greeted @ the front desk and made to feel welcomed and relaxed within minutes of arrival and during my entire, extended stay. My 2nd floor...More

Overall, disappointing. One bar open at a time with long lines. Packed pool. No hot tub. Upgraded to ocean view room but had trees in front of balcony and couldn’t see ocean unless standing and leaning over left side of balcony. Only buffet option for...More

Overall the stay was excellent! But our toilet was broken the first day (wouldn’t flush) and despite multiple attempts at reporting it it didn’t start working again until our last full day. Very frustrating. Thankfully we weren’t in our room much. Otherwise it was a...More

I booked the Occidental with my time share and then booked my own flight, just made a mistake booking the flight flying into San Jose which is about a 5 hour drive from the resort, fly into the other airport for Costa Rica it is only about 1 hour away or so, at least we got to see the area, but it was a long drive, I should have checked to see which airport was closer, don’t make my mistake.
Never had an issue with this. Make sure you document what is missing. Also make sure that this did not happen at the airport. I have heard about people taking items they see when screened at airports
