The Tamarindo Doria Hotel IS Tamarindo- it’s located RIGHT IN THE CENTER of Tamarindo Beach, on the esplanade - why would you stay anywhere else? The resort is beautiful, very clean, very safe with armed security guards, all the staff is genuinely friendly and did I mention the location?😄 The pool and grounds are right out of a postcard. Great experience!

The hotel is amazing! I was happy to spend my honeymoon there. Great Facilities and it offers variety of meals in their different restaurants. We walked around the area and not because we love the hotel, it was the best. Live music at night, lovely staff, relaxing areas. The bed was pretty big the same than the bed.

I am a tea drinker,, some days no caffeine tea ieEnglish breakfast aS available..I brought some but ran out. I know it is a coffee wor!d but I was not the only one looking for caffeine! Also, I feel that considering the heat..water should be available by the beach and pool areas of at reception..should not have to buy drink or water..

The room furniture is strange. There was no dresser in the room for our clothes. We lived out of the suitcase for the a week. No chair in the room to sit on. The sliding door to our balcony wouldn't shut or lock properly.
Great location. Comfortable beds. Great view of the beach. Nice pools.

My room door was not flush to the floor so cockroaches came in quit a bit. Having to cross a busy street all the time was dangerous and annoying, especially when an officer was not there to help us cross. The pool, furthest from the beach did not have food, only the pool by the beach did. They did not have an american tv channel list in our room and asked room service twice to deliver it which never came.
The pool furthest from the beach was amazing. Having a swim up bar was awesome. Great restaurants nearby. Location was perfect and by all the dance clubs.

This is a 300 dollar a night hotel. No water stations to fill water bottles in a very eco conscious country. AC did not work well. Sliding glass door came off rails. This aren’t big things but when you can get these basics at a cheaper hotel why upgrade?

“Absolutely horrible”

From the moment we checked in the staff was rude and unhelpful. After talking to the employees, I learned the hotel has a high staff turnover and most of the staff seemed to be untrained. Checkin attendant was rude and did not offer to set me up with a house account which I later discovered I needed to conveniently make purchases. The concierge service were a joke. Extremely unhelpful and acted like I was inconveniencing them when I ask them to arrange for ground transportation from Tamarindo to another beach. The rooms were old and run down and smelled of mildew. There was construction to the staircase outside of my room which began every morning at 7am. The rooms were not clean and the sink did not have an operating drain. Also, house keeping did not replenish small toiletries or coffee/tea on a daily basis. The beach are is OK, but they have one waitress for the entire garden area so it took over an hour to get and pay for one drink. She was sweet, but also had only been on the job for 2 days and was extremely slow as she was new! The beach are has old plastic lawn chairs. Not updated. No chairs for use on the beach without paying a beach hustler $25+. All-day-along you have drug dealers walking up and down the beach asking you to buy hard drugs. The crowd seemed a bit rough! When you were not being bothered by a drug dealer or Simone hustling Chinese gift wares, you were being asked if you want to buy sex. The nightclub down the street from my ocean front room went until 3am and the music was so loud you could not sleep. Perhaps my expectations are high as I travel a lot, but this hotel was a 2 star charging 4 star Cost Rica pricing and I left feeling ripped off. I will not visit this hotel again and strongly advise downgrading their rating.
Location is good as it is directly on the beach.

There was construction going on everyday from 10 am on. We were trying to relax in our room and all we could hear was hammering of concrete right out side our room. When I talked to guest services about it they said sir most of our guests are already awake. Also thee was little to no hot water and house keeping came into our room 3 times without knocking while we were trying to sleep. For a room that costs over 300 usd a night there was so many issues we will never come back here. Customer service did nothing to make it better.
The buffet breakfast was good and the location in the beach is beautiful.

Room safe is ridiculously small . We had the corner room on the property facing the gardens with very poor view. Waiter service at the bar is so slow waiting 20 minutes for a beer. The Hotel is split with a road in between with restaurant, bar and beach front facilities on one side and on the other the main pools and gardens and most rooms on the other. Chose carefully to suit needs.
Beautiful open air bar/ restaurant on the seafront. Surfing right outside. Good security. Fantastic pools and gardens.
