Zulu Surf Hotel Tamarindo

The a/c unit in our room did not work, and I’m pretty sure they knew about this before hand. Also the toaster oven did not work nor did the remotes for the Tv, and when I brought this up at the front desk they told me it worked before I came as if I came and broke it all.

Extremely well located. This is a budget hotel, simple, clean and self checking. The AC worked and the shower water was hot. You will receive the check in information on your cellphone the day off. If you are not used to Tamarindo, the hotel is right next to a mini mall smack in the center of town and just a 5 minute walk to the beach. Everything was functional the only thing is that the breakfast/coffee if there was one, starts at 8AM. A bit late. There is some street noise but nothing major and I slept well.

Right in the heart of Tamarindo. Convenient location close to beach and restaurants. Nice clean rooms with lots of space. Bed was very comfortable. We had everything we needed within a block of the hotel. Tons of restaurants and shops right there. Be aware that it is in a busy area so some noise is to be expected. Also the bar was not open but maybe because it was shoulder season. Otherwise it was a great place to stay.

The hotel is neat and clean. It gives a hostel kind of vibe. There was no front desk and we had to call on number provided to receive checkin instructions since we were not able top open our booking app to see the instructions. Room was clean and AC was working. We did not have any beach view since it on the other side of the road but the location is very convenient. Its locates right in the middle of the town center and all restaurants and beach is 5 min walk.

Excellent location. Plus they have a discount at a great breakfast/brunch restaurant connected to the hotel.

The only benefit of this property is the location. It’s outdated , there is no reception it’s very noisy inside the rooms because there’s no insulated windows Very tiny bathroom.

We loved the location, our room was very stylish and the beds were SO comfortable. This is my second time staying here and I don't imagine I would stay anywhere else in Tamarindo in the future. Thank you Zulu!

Truly amazing! It’s the perfect location and I cannot recommend this spot enough! Great staff and perfect room!
