So clean, smooth and ADORED the terrace
Pros:

The new renovations are great, everything was smooth and very much clean, one of the best shared room i have been to. And what can i say of the terrace, it’s dreamy 🤩 and the location is ideal, in the center and a few meters from the beach. Thank you for the whole staff!

Bello hotel, excelente servicio y vista increíble al mar!.
Pros:

Me encantó el lugar, con execelente vista al mar, muy limpio y la piscina en el último piso, es la cereza en el pastel, además el servicio muy claro, atento y cordial de Óscar en la recepción, fue un plus.

Pros:

Excellent hotel. I stayed in the shared room and it was so spacious, clean and well-equipped (we had our own cupboards with safety lockers inside, hanger space etc). Fantastic location & rooftop by the beach.
The team were super helpful and welcoming throughout my stay :)

Pros:

Definitivamente recomiendo este lugar. Primero que todo, las instalaciones son súper bonitas, todo demasiado aseado y cuidado. El personal fue increíblemente amable desde el primer momento: la recepcionista, el muchacho que estaba ahí, las chicas de limpieza… de verdad todos nos trataron con muchísima calidez.

Todo funciona perfectamente, la terraza es algo hermoso y la cocina está súper bien equipada también. Me hospedé en la habitación compartida de 8 tipo hostel y honestamente fue una experiencia excelente; incluso los huéspedes eran respetuosos y tranquilos. La habitación estaba súper bien, con aire acondicionado y muy cómoda.

La ubicación también es perfecta. Definitivamente se convirtió en mi lugar favorito para hospedarme en Tamarindo. Lo recomiendo mil veces.

Muchísimas gracias por la flexibilidad, la comprensión y el trato tan cálido que recibí durante toda la estadía 🌊🐚☀️🙌🏻

Cons:

Todo me encantó! 💙

Unbeatable Location + Stunning Rooftop = Perfect Stay 🌊✨
Pros:

Unbeatable location — literally steps to the beach with everything walkable, plus a supermarket right downstairs. The new rooftop pool is absolutely stunning with incredible sunset views, and the suites are top-tier. Huge shoutout to Paris and his team who went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable!

Cons:

Honestly, nothing — everything exceeded our expectations. If anything, we just wish we could have stayed longer!
