"The hotel is a bit old, but it is well maintained, very clean, and has a very good holiday feeling. The location is especially good. The town center is very lively and good for shopping (the Pizaa restaurant next to it is delicious). The hotel faces the sea, which is almost a private beach. The beach is of very good quality, with clear water and fine sand, extending far away and not deep. Although it is not as beautiful as the sea in Cancun, it is more suitable for playing (especially surfing). Although it is a public beach, the hotel's own lawn area is very large. You can rest under the benches and coconut trees in the hotel. You can go down two steps to the beach, so you don't need to go to the beach to compete with everyone for a position. The beach is very clean and popular. There are many surfboard rentals and surfing courses. You can even get a massage on the beach, which is very interesting. Tamarindo is a tourist hotspot. You can find a local travel agency to sign up for many short tours. We signed up for a 3-hour tour to watch turtles lay eggs in one night (November to April is the turtle laying season every year), which is very interesting. We only stayed for one night, but staying one more night would be more relaxing. In short, it is worth recommending."
"Firstly, let me say that the staff there are their biggest asset. I couldn’t fault the staff in any way. They were friendly and warm. Offered help will all services like tours or fun places to go or local food or taxis to the airport etc etc. she always greeted me and wanted to have a conversation about my day (as a solo traveller, that’s nice, as most the time can be spent alone). She seemed to care that I had a fun time there and did her best to help me enjoy my time. The downsides are just a few things with noise, it’s quite close to main road and the windows are super thin. Was woken up a few times. Also the communal areas can be quite close to rooms and you don’t appreciate people smoking, drinking, talking loudly outside your door whether it’s 4pm or 4am!"

Absolutely Exceptional — Better Than Some 5-Star Hotels!
I was blown away by the level of service at Tama Hostel and Glamping. The staff go above and beyond — genuinely warm, attentive, and helpful. Every inch of the property is spotless and meticulously maintained, offering a relaxed, welcoming vibe that you rarely find outside of boutique resorts.
What really impressed me was that the service here surpasses some 5-star hotels I’ve stayed in. A special shout-out to the lovely Russian girl at reception — her hospitality was extraordinary. She made check-in feel more like arriving at a friend’s place, with genuine kindness and attention.
Another standout feature is its proximity to the beach. Just a short, easy walk—and you’re right on the sand, with the ocean practically calling your name. Whether for a morning swim, sunset stroll, or lounging with a book by the waves, the beach access couldn’t be more convenient.
If you’re looking for a clean, laid-back escape with top-tier service and beachside charm at a low budget, Tama Hostel and Glamping is highly recommended!

GGuest UserThis trip was for my honey moon, the staff was pleasant and helpful. The shuttle service was easy and efficient and the trip to town was less then 5 mins away. The beach club that was attached to the hotel is 6 mins away and prime location in the beach. All the rooms have a beautiful view and would definitely book again even if it is not right in the beach as everything is within walking distance and a taxi ride away (we paid 5$ from center of town to our hotel) the rooms were clean and the ac unit kept the room nice and cool which is refreshing coming in from the humid outdoors. Definitely book again … pura vida
