Very nice and clean appartment. We stayed here for 2 nights to take some relaxing time during our roundtrip in Costa Rica. We enjoyed the pool at the end of the day after coming back from the beach.

This was one of our multiple stays in Costa Rica, and we were truly impressed. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-equipped. Above all, the Refugio concept — which includes a beautiful café and a cozy bar offering excellent food and drinks — truly exceeded our expectations. Unlike at other accommodations, we didn't have to eat Gallo Pinto for breakfast every day, but could instead choose from a wide variety of delicious brunch options directly from the restaurant/bar. The staff were friendly and always ready to help with anything we needed — from arranging surf lessons to recommending great local restaurants. We were mainly in touch with Augustin, who took excellent care of us. Overall, we were delighted with our stay and can highly recommend this place.

We really enjoyed our time at antema lodge. The hosts were very welcoming, the pool is super nice and refreshing and you feel like being in the jungle, seeing monkeys and iguanas. Apart from that you have a nice yoga area and a little jungle gym with some weights. The rooms were very clean and also modern. There is free coffee as well.

What an awesome stay. Could not recommend it more! Great location (15 minute walk from the beach and 10 minute walk from town). The hostel is so clean and tidy, the staff are incredibly kind and friendly, the pods are amazing!! If you're a solo traveller and you need a little privacy after staying in so many hostels, this is the perfect option. And on top of that the butterfly garden is just so cool. 10 out 10, will definitely stay here again when back in Tamarindo.

Our stay at Hotel Elixir was great. The location is perfect, really central but also tucked away from too much noise. The breakfast was excellent and the staff really helpful. Our room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean.

My best decision was to stay at Hotel Boruca, the staff was always friendly and they welcomed us and helped us with a smile. The room was very clean and carefully decorated. The price is very good for the Tamarindo area and it's location worked very well for us, we gone to the beach, visit restaurants, we was only have to walk 200 meters. Definitely if I return to Tamarindo, I will return to this hotel.

We had a great stay at Casa del sol. The room was very clean, communication was easy and the location was in walking distance from all the restaurants and bars but still in a quiet area. The beach was only 2 minutes away.
