I loved the location. Everyone in the staff were amazing, very friendly and helpful. They always made sure I wasn’t lacking anything. Cleaning every day, great kitchen that you can cook in, fridge in the room was a bonus. Pool is super nice too with lots of space to chill.

The location was excellent, in the centre of town yet very quiet at night. The deck chairs and hammocks reserved from guests were very welcome, and allowed us to have our own private space very close to the beach ( so close, on high tide the water comes lapping at your feet. It was very warm when we went there but the aircon and the ceiling fans were excellent and quiet, which was a real bonus.

The cleaners on the other hand work very hard and are very kind. I think there is a difference in level of service between the cleaners and the management of the hotel. We would recommend the restaurant of the hotel for sure!

Very friendly and helpful owner and staff! The room has everything needed. Safe parking available. You can use the pool. Everything was clean and tidy. I asked for beach towels and they were provided. It’s close to a big supermarket. It’s not far from Tamarindo center, for me well located between the beaches around Tamarindo.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, and I’d especially like to thank Mery at the reception. She was incredibly kind, helpful, and went above and beyond to assist with anything I needed. Her warm and welcoming attitude made a big difference in my experience. Truly one of the kindest people I’ve met thank you, Mery

    I absolutely love Costa Rica and extremely dislike Tamarindo. Tamarindo is the opposite of the soul of Costa Rica. Driving into Tamarindo from anywhere else on the pacific coast is a complete shock - a nosedive into consumerism, price gauging, bad food, constant harassment from vendors, laced with a background of drugs and overall sketchiness, and all dressed up in a sellers mask of "pura vida"... but believe me when I say there is no pura vida in Tamarindo.

    Tamarindo has a nice beach, but way too many tourists. There are a lot of hotels and restaurants in a small amount of space. I felt claustrophobic. Lots of wealth in the area mixed with pobreza. Appears to be mostly Americans and Europeans with the wealth.

    We left Canada on a snowy day and arrived to 34C heat; very warm. The local people are very friendly and seem to appreciate tourists, even those like us, who don’t speak Spanish. The town is definitely a tourist town with many shops and restaurants. The sunsets can be remarkable and we were surprised to see so many of the locals arriving on the beach to appreciate the sun disappearing and watch the sky’s afterglow that followed.

    Tamarindo had the most vibrant vibe out of the areas I visited in the area. Its got a great beach, nightlife and many good dining options. I did get propositioned one time (at 7pm) but was probably the only single male walking around (it was off season and few foreign tourists, mostly locals). I politely say no thank you and that was the end of it. I felt completely safe diving and walking around, even at night. I ate a several local restaurants outside my hotel and had great meals at each. Surfing in the main draw here, but there are lots of excursions in the area.

    Great lively little beach town.

    Great lively little beach town. Lots of restaurants, from more expensive hotel options, to road-side stalls, to a food-truck park (cool!). Our favorite was the Pelican, which had fantastic seafood meals for a reasonable price. Town has lots of local tourist shops, some good beachwear stores, ice-cream shops, and a few local t-shirt shops, etc. Town is on the beach, which is public, and there is lots of great sight seeing and people-watching (including beginner to pro surfers). Main complaint: everything is in USD, and costs almost equivalent to Canadian prices, if not more expensive. Cocktails from 10-15 USD. Meals from USD 20-35, Massages - USD $100, tourist treks and activities - around $100/person. Oh...have to mention Costa Ricans, who are lovely, friendly, hospitable, and respectful - have nothing but good things to say about the people. So if you don't mind spending money for a tropical holiday, Tamarindo is a great place to do it!

    You can walk straight out on to the beach at the hotel so in terms of location its ideal. Also its a 5 minute walk into where all the restaurants are in Tamarindo. The room was spacious and bathroom was nice, air-con worked well which was needed as we had 32 degrees celsius whilst there. The adjoining restaurant does good simple food and nice cocktails.

    This was a very nice resort hotel in tamarindo. It’s great for recovering after all the hiking and sightseeing in Costa Rica. The grounds are beautiful and there are plenty of monkeys and animals in the trees. The 3 pool areas are great and getting a sunbed is not a problem. You can get an Uber to the airport which is 10 minutes away.

    Ocho is in the heart of Tamarindo yet in a jungle-like, Costa Rican-like estate directly on the incredible beach that goes on forever. Miguel, it’s colorful manager, was welcoming and attentive (as was the staff in general) and made our stay more than a pleasure. Loved our bungalow.
