Ten North Tamarindo Beach Hotel, hotel in Tamarindo

This property is just a 3 minute walk from Tamarindo beach, and features an outdoor pool in a tropical setting. There is free WiFi throughout the property, and daily housekeeping.

I spent 8 nights here with my family. It was a wonderful stay. It's close to all the best restaurants in Tamarindo, and also 2 blocks from the beach. The breakfast that was provided each morning was wonderful and they even made meals for my two kids and my wife who is vegan. The staff is wonderful. Also, if you're staying on Saturday, there is a farmer's market next door in the morning that has a lot of great local vendors. The hotel also helped arrange us a transfer from the Liberia Airport (thanks Karol!), and also helped arrange a tour.

    Favela Chic is in a great location within walking distance ( or free bicycle ride) to Tamarindo. Close to great restaurants, the beach and shops. Very friendly people with most of them able to speak English or direct me to someone who could. Would like to return soon.

    Very nice small town feel. Really enjoyed the restaurants.

    Very nice small town feel. Really enjoyed the restaurants. It was very hot in early April when we visited. End of the dry season so but lush at all. Everything is within walking distance. Go check out the zoo there. If you can get a car go visit Lola's which is a 40 min drive away. No one there on that beach. Massages on the beach are inexpensive and worth it. Renting beach loungers are cheap with unbrella. Some restaurants on the beach have them too. Lots of restaurants along the beach.

    Great small surf town, with everything you need within short walking distance. Variety of cuisine with Happy Hour offers (take them as food is pricey here). We mostly ate at "Soda" restaurant (any spot with Soda means it's local food). Fire throwers perform nightly around center of the beach. Tip them, it is amazing what they can do. River Boat tour showed us mangrove vegetation, crocodiles and iguanas. Blue Dolphin sunset sailing was super fun, check the wind report before booking. Horseback riding available at the beach, I'd recommend morning time when tide is low. Sand is pack then and beach is wide for them to walk on. Sun is sneaky here and you can burn easily, so be careful.

    I love love love Tamarindo! I've actually been looking non-stop at properties to see if there is a place I'd like to live. It's unlikely that I will move there permanently, but I'd love to have a little place to be able to visit once in awhile!

    We were disappoined in Tamarindo ~ it felt like a tourist trap with all the sidewalk tour booths. We went snorkeling with one of the booths by the beach which was definitely NOT worth it as there was absoluately nothing to see. We discovered Native Way & booked a tour to the Estuary which was excellent compared to another guest who booked from the booths by the beaches. I also heard many of them are scams as they want a deposit which will be the last you'll hear ofthem. We would recommend Native Way if you want to book any tours. We were disappointed becaue Tarmarindo was more expensive than we expected. There were only a few "shops" that were not filled with "souvenirs" that were probably not even made there. Go to the Night Market on Thursday or Farmer's Market on Saturday for unique gifts made by local artisans. Food at Restaurants were good but not the prices. We recommend Tabu & Pico Bistro. Pangas is over rated... food was so so but atmosopshere was out of this world.

    Diria was absolutely amazing. Our travel plans got a bit messed up (our airlines fault) and we were only able to stay here one night. We then went to Occidental Tamarindo for two nights and the experience was not nearly as nice. Occidental was all inclusive, so a bit more expensive, but Diria was soooo much nicer. The staff was incredible, the facilities were beautiful, the beach was impeccable and the location is literally unbeatable. My partner and I will definitely be returning and will only stay at the Diria Hotel.

    Our room was spotless! A really nice room with a minimalist vibe. The hotel is tucked away down a dusty backstreet of Tamarindo, but still within a short walk (10 - 15 minutes) to the centre of town and the beach. I'd say it provided a good balance between being away from all the noise and the hustle and bustle of the town, but not being too far out that it was a problem. The pool is only small, so don't expect to be doing laps, but it was nice for a quick dip to cool off after a long day on the beach.

    Great, small hotel, a bit further from the loud crowds but still close enough to beach and all other amenities. Comfortable and very relaxing stay. Super helpful owner who helped us with all our questions and even gave us tips on the rest of our trip in Costa Rica! Breakfast was simply, but very delicious and on par with other similar hotel / BnB breakfasts we had in Costa Rica (if not even better).
