Very nice hybrid concept of a hotel with breakfast but you can use the kitchen and facilities during the day. Fantastic spacious rooms with very comfortable beds and exceptionally clean, you could eat from the floor. Warm showers and great location to do sightseeing. This is 100% owned by locals who put their heart and soul into it. Definitely would recommend.

The owners were so nice. The taxi they organised for us didn't turn up, so they drove 20km to pick us up in their own car and wouldn't accept any payment. The family apartment was very comfortable and clean. It had essentials such as coffee tea, sugar, salt and oil. Close to supermarkets and walking distance to bus station and restaurants. The firstt load of laundry was free, which was a great bonus. The outside road was a little noisy with music at night, but it was the weekend.

Incredible value, you could easily pay twice this for the stay, don’t let the low price pit you off, you are getting a bargain! location very close to beach, lovely owners who went the extra mile. The owner, who works very hard to keep the property in good condition and customers happy, very kindly did a load of washing for us at no charge which was very much appreciated. Beautiful breakfast which was also plentiful and served to order. Beach supplies such as beach towels, bug spray, body boards and deck chairs also available to borrow which was very useful and kind.

This is an amazing property with cute cabins and all the facilities. The pool was nicely kept. The fruit provided from the crop was extra special. All the staff was helpful. Great area but need a vehicle or taxi for access to Sámara. Such a peaceful place to stay. It was nice to hear that this was also funding support for the tree regrowth.

My favourite beach stay! Staff were lovely. Location was incredible, right on the beach. Lots of chill out spots to relax on the sand, the shade of a magnificent tree. The Italian food was incredible!! Rooms were very clean! I wish could have stayed longer, but I will definitely go back!

The location was amazing, room were basic but they had private washrooms and air conditioners to keep cool. Lots of shelving to keep clothing and belonging organized. super cheap to have them wash some clothes, it was around $3 usd per kilo. loved the hammocks in the common area. all the tables were great for playing games while having a drink, very laid back vibe. the fridge in the room was fantastic.

We loved the breakfasts! Something different prepared every day, they bring in chefs, everything is very tasty and beautifully presented. A very intimate setting too, great for chatting to other guests and the host, Jenna, who was enthusiastic and attentive. Loved the hammock chairs, beautifully placed for watching the sunset. Room was very clean and was kept very clean during our stay. Only about a 15 min stroll into town (I think quite a few reviews put this as a downside but it’s an easy walk), quiet location.

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.

I loved everything about this space. My budget room was small but perfect for my stay. I loved cooling off in the dipping pool before bed each night. Great location … 5 minutes to walk to all restaurants, beach and shops but also not right in the middle of all the late night music etc.
