Look no further! Super premium, luxury hotel, with huge rooms and luxury bathrooms. The pool is great, really big. The location is centric, can't be better than that (but not on the main road, so it can't be better). The hotel is newly built, so we were one of the first guests. The team is really helpful. The beds are super comfortable.

Vey clean room, well maintained property. Lovely and exceptionally hospitable owners. Quiet,yet close to Tamarindo and the surrounding beaches- 10-14 min by car. Great breakfast- enjoyed the French crepes every morning, eggs, delicious coffee, homemade yogurt, fresh fruits, gallo pinto, almond cake and more. Nice pool, very refreshing for the hot weather.

Excellent, cannot recommend it enough. Stayed for two weeks as a female solo traveler and felt safe. Stayed in a bungalow which was very clean. This boutique hotel had cozy communal spaces. Breakfast in my opinion is the best value for money in town. It is close enough to everything by foot, but far enough from the bars etc to be quiet, which was perfect for me. Thank you so much to Richard and Juan Carlos for making my stay great!

Marie and Phillip are excellent hosts. We had a last-minute change to our previous accommodations and were fortunate to book Pierre and Colors. This new Boutique Hotel rivals any 5-star hotel in North America. The facilities inside and outside were immaculate. The room had a kitchenette to let us enjoy meals outside on our patio. The decor is beautiful and boasts a Pura Vida flavour of peace, simplicity, and grounding within nature. Pierre and Colors live up to its name with beautiful colors inside and outside their rooms. We enjoyed the pool and seating area to relax and read. I also began my Yoga practice outside my room, kicking off 2025 with light and love. Marie and Phillip were most accommodating and supported our transfer from their hotel to our long-term condo. I will tell friends and family visiting Costa Rica about this fabulous Boutique Hotel. You will not be disappointed in booking here for your vacation away from home.

    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.
