Pura Vida
Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal. Beste Lage mit Aussicht direkt auf den Pazifik. Wir hatten uns ein Surfbrett für unseren 10 tägigen Aufenthalt gemietet und ohne Probleme mit auf's Zimmer nehmen dürfen. Morgens, abends, tagsüber in nur 3 Minuten ins Wasser. Ein absoluter Traum. Und das noch zu einem unfassbar guten Preis. Eines ist sicher, Tamarindo Hotel Laguna del Cocodrilo...wir kommen wieder 😃👍🏽 .. besten Dank nochmal ans ganze Team...

Cons:

Es gibt nichts zu beanstanden.Weiter machen ,wie bis jetzt .

We did not stay. Left the keys and paid for accommodations closer to town. Would advise against booking here.
Pros:

We checked in and left to find other accommodations. Not as advertised

Cons:

Not a good location. Rooms were extremely bare bones. Looked like it was right on the beach but we were unable to get on the beach from the hotel. Had to walk several minutes on a busy road, with no sidewalks to get to beach access.
Hotel was very dark, with no lights on in hallways at check in.

Alright
Pros:

Great location, bugs in the room (dead and alive), sheets were clean however and location is honestly a 10/10. Wouldn’t stay here again but the staff were helpful and nice and it was easy to go to the beach and restaurant.

Cons:

Walls definitely need to be cleaned, bug problem needs to be taken care of.
