Great and super welcoming owners!! They are very helpful with all the local recommendations and are always there for the guests:) Simple, clean, cosy, great location and wonderful food!! It gets loud in the evenings, but earplugs are provided for those who want an early night - and they work so well! We enjoyed our stay very much!! Thanks to Augustin and all the stuff!!!

The owners are friendly and accommodating. They gave me great recommendations for places to visit. The property is gated and feels very safe, and provides a nice respite from the hustle and bustle of the town. My room was very clean and comfortable. The room had a refrigerator, the shared kitchen had the equipment for making simple meals or reheating leftovers.

We loved the hostel, the glamping was very cozy and plenty of space, with lights and fan. There’s a kitchen when we can storage food and prepare meals, common area with sofas and tables and a lovely pool which was quite warm even by the evening. All the Spaces were very clean.

Toni was amazing our transport was a disaster..she made sure we didn't have to pay. Then kindly dropped us at a restaurant. Alberto is on site..always helpful and friendly and smiling. The apartment was very clean..and in an amazing location. Great swimming pool and 100 feet from the beach. We met loads of lovely people there..and I can understand why they come back every year. It was an amazing stay..thanks to all the wonderful people!!

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.

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.
