Surf Ranch Tamarindo
6.4 (61 reviews)

Surf Ranch Tamarindo ★★★

📍 Calle Central, Tamarindo

"Well, there's not much to say. The rooms are small, but there's air conditioning, which is really worth it. I also appreciate the self-check-in option. However, I would have liked to have received that information the day before. Otherwise, the location is very good."

Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort
8.8 (102 reviews)

Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort ★★★★

📍 C. Central, Tamarindo

"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."

Baliyana Lodge ★★★

📍 San Antonio del Cruz, Tamarindo

"We enjoyed the Baliyana Lodge very much. The owners were very friendly and pleasant people and they put their personal touch into making our stay a wonderful experience. The breakfasts were amazing. The cabin was private and beautiful and we slept well in a comfortable bed. The infinity pool overlooking the mountain forest was breathtaking. Amazing wildlife all around in this peaceful setting. The drive was its own experience as the roads were heavily damaged by the rains, but the Baliyana Lodge was well worth it. Highly recommend - a perfect 10 experience!"

House of Nomad - Adults Only Hotels in Tamarindo

House of Nomad - Adults Only

"During our stay at Nomad Containers in Tamarindo (unit 102, April 2026), we encountered a cockroach infestation within the unit, including in the kitchen area under the sink. When we reported the issue, staff acknowledged that this had been an ongoing problem requiring fumigation, and the owner confirmed that a similar issue had already been identified approximately one week prior to our arrival. Despite this prior knowledge, the unit was still being rented without clear confirmation that the infestation had been resolved. We decided to leave early due to these conditions. What was particularly disappointing was the response: instead of addressing the issue constructively, the owner disputed the validity of our report. For travellers, especially those concerned with hygiene standards, this is an important consideration. At a minimum, one would expect full remediation and verification before re-letting a unit with a known pest issue."

L'Avventura Boutique Hotel Hotels in Tamarindo

L'Avventura Boutique Hotel

"We had the pleasure of spending time at this amazing place, and we must say the experience exceeded all expectations. Dino and Maria (hosts) actually live in one of the apartments and were incredibly pleasant and always helpful, creating a genuine family feel without being intrusive. The apartments are designed with irresistible elegance, and our stay was truly enhanced by the luxurious atmosphere. The serene and pleasant common area provided the perfect space to unwind and savor the moments. The location is ideal, centrally located yet peaceful, and the saltwater pool is a true gem. The saktesteke pool offered us the relaxing sensation of an exclusive resort right in the heart of the city. We look forward to returning to this hidden paradise on our next occasion. Thank you for a brilliant experience!"

Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort ★★★★
"The hotel is well located with good facilities and clean, spacious rooms. The staff is attentive and the breakfast is good, although they wouldn't allow us to take a simple sandwich for our 8-hour trip on our last day, which was a bit disappointing."

Jardin del Eden Boutique Hotel ★★★★
"We had read many great reviews before booking this property, but were a little apprehensive about if it would live up to expectations. Oh yes it did! The staff are friendly, helpful and welcoming and the property is very well maintained. While lounging by the pool, expect a lizard or two and your morning alarm could be the howler monkeys. This property is centrally located allowing you easy access to the beach and town, but the gardens and pool offer pure tranquility. You can physically feel the energy change as you cross the road and walk up the path up from the beach back to your room. There are steps into reception, down to the pool, restaurant and into rooms, so consider this if not mobile. The breakfast buffet was delightful and the evening meal offered two starter, two main and one dessert option that varied each day. The room was big, comfortable, toiletries provided and strong Wi-Fi throughout, even on the beach. We thought this property was great value for money and thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

Baliyana Lodge ★★★
"My husband and I stayed for 2 nights in this tropical paradise. The only complaint we have is 2 nights was not long enough- we wished we had booked longer! Our hosts, Yannick and Nathalie were absolutely wonderful! They are such kind, courteous and accommodating people and made our stay even better. They were so informative too amd helped us with local destinations and advised us on not only the best places to visit, but also the best ways to get there, whilst also sending us links via Google maps. What they have done to their property is beyond stunning. As you walk through the garden, you are filled with a sense of peace and harmony. The beautiful pool is perfectly located, giving you views of the jungle for miles. The plants and trees attract a wide range of wildlife and I've never seen so many butterflies! I felt an inner sense of peace that I've never felt whilst relaxing with nothing but the sounds of nature around me. The lodges are equally as beautiful. It is clear that they have been designed with love and care. The bed was extremely comfortable, the shower was just right, and the water is ready to drink from the tap. Tea and coffee is supplied as are showering towels and extra towels for the pool. It was also immaculately clean. Sitting in the porch at night was phenomenal. We heard howler monkeys! Do take mosquito repellent though as you are in the jungle and you will get bitten. This is no reflection on the accommodation though- you are in the jungle so expect it! Breakfast was also lovely. Tea and coffee served with ice cold water and fruit juice. Fresh fruit followed by eggs made the way you like them and toast with a selection of jams. All of this is consumed whilst looking out at the breathtaking view. The roads to get to this idyllic haven are rugged. It is a very bumpy ride but again, it is in the jungle so expect it. I would happily drive these roads over and over again though if it means staying at Baliyana Lodge. Thank you so much Yannick and Nathalie. You made this part of our honeymoon perfect and we will always cherish you for that!"

Mono Luxe Villas ★★★
"An exceptional property that perfectly balances chic, contemporary design with a warm, cozy ambiance. The service is consistently outstanding—attentive without being intrusive—and the location is ideal for exploring the area. Very flexible options to stay with family since it has regular rooms, one bedroom and 2 bedroom suites equipped with small kitchen and living room area. Great walk out balcony in very peaceful setting but just meters away from the fun Tamarindo main street full of restaurant options and entertainment. Noise level is super low. Very relaxing. Everything is brand new! Staff is extraordinary. Tony was fabulous! The kids and I really enjoyed our time there and hope to return soon! Keep an eye out for the fabulous Beach Club that will be a wonderful addition to this property."
