Very nice and clean appartment. We stayed here for 2 nights to take some relaxing time during our roundtrip in Costa Rica. We enjoyed the pool at the end of the day after coming back from the beach.

This was one of our multiple stays in Costa Rica, and we were truly impressed. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-equipped. Above all, the Refugio concept — which includes a beautiful café and a cozy bar offering excellent food and drinks — truly exceeded our expectations. Unlike at other accommodations, we didn't have to eat Gallo Pinto for breakfast every day, but could instead choose from a wide variety of delicious brunch options directly from the restaurant/bar. The staff were friendly and always ready to help with anything we needed — from arranging surf lessons to recommending great local restaurants. We were mainly in touch with Augustin, who took excellent care of us. Overall, we were delighted with our stay and can highly recommend this place.

The owners of the house were so friendly and always smiling. With a rental car, their location was amazing for us ( I cannot advise how it would have been without the car ). Very easy check-in and check-out. The room was like a small apartment: very big, a lot of light, a small fridge, spotless both the room and the bathroom ( nice shampoo, conditioner and soap ). Delicious breakfast prepared freshly by the hosts. The pool was amazing, clean and we could use it late in the evening for relaxation. I hope we will be back soon!

Honestly my boyfriend and I had a blast at this hostel. The Personal are really helpfull and kind. Speacially the ones that we have the chance to meet. Like Mayda and the other tall guy that i cant remember his name. The place is really easy going. Kitchen always clean. Just a step aways from everything you need in tamarindo. Its really a chill vibe and I recommend 100%. The cleaning people are working hard to keep the place perfect and its work. Again we totally recommend.

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!

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.
