    Well maintained, clean pool, great breakfast, and the staff was very accommodating. The location was also perfect for walking into town while still being quiet.

    Cute hotel with pool in close proximity to town walking. Very safe to walk around even at night. The breakfast was delicious (especially the excellent coffee). Rooms were just what we needed. The staff was very friendly. I would highly recommend!

    Beautiful, Clean, in a nice location not too far from town or the beach but far enough to be so quiet at night! All the staff was amazing…friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good! Front desk help set up my transfers in and out of Tamarindo!
