We had a good stay. The place was nice and clean, everything look new. The kitchen was well equipped. The owner was friendly (through whatsapp, we never really met them). All communication from keys to payment happened smoothly through whatsapp.

For us, everything was perfect! The staff was very nice and friendly, and the pool was perfect for relaxing or swimming. The room had everything we needed. For those who need a lot of space for themselves or their belongings, it’s good to know that these are container rooms with limited space — but there are other room options you can book. We stayed for three nights, really enjoyed our stay, and would definitely come back again!

The most beautiful hotel we stayed at during our trip to Costa Rica, very beautiful, very comfortable, and with remarkable design. Everything is high quality. We also enjoyed the beautiful pool and the peaceful atmosphere. The Wi-Fi was very fast too. A paradise near the Pacific beach. A warm welcome from the owners, who shared lots of information about Costa Rica. A huge thank you 🙏

Perfect relaxation. The couple who own it live next door but leave you to it. They are always available for advice of the nearby area or anything else you may need. Perfect if you have a car. We didn’t have a car but was able to walk to the nearest supermarket and cook at the property.

What an awesome stay. Could not recommend it more! Great location (15 minute walk from the beach and 10 minute walk from town). The hostel is so clean and tidy, the staff are incredibly kind and friendly, the pods are amazing!! If you're a solo traveller and you need a little privacy after staying in so many hostels, this is the perfect option. And on top of that the butterfly garden is just so cool. 10 out 10, will definitely stay here again when back in Tamarindo.

It was so nice to spend a few days in this calm oasis after coming from the busy centre of Tamarindo. Rooms are very spacious and the beds are so comfortable. You have a nice patio area outside the front of each room to relax and listen to the birds and animals outside. The shared kitchen is huge and has everything you would need. Large and secure parking spaces. The owners are a lovely couple who are so welcoming and take the time to get to know you and make sure you are enjoying your stay. They also have lovely little dogs and cats. Merci beaucoup! :)

Our stay at Hotel Elixir was great. The location is perfect, really central but also tucked away from too much noise. The breakfast was excellent and the staff really helpful. Our room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean.

My best decision was to stay at Hotel Boruca, the staff was always friendly and they welcomed us and helped us with a smile. The room was very clean and carefully decorated. The price is very good for the Tamarindo area and it's location worked very well for us, we gone to the beach, visit restaurants, we was only have to walk 200 meters. Definitely if I return to Tamarindo, I will return to this hotel.

We had a great stay at Casa del sol. The room was very clean, communication was easy and the location was in walking distance from all the restaurants and bars but still in a quiet area. The beach was only 2 minutes away.
