The hotel was very nice. Service was good. Pool was nice. We were welcomed by an Iguana when we walked onto our balcony. The beach was nice, but you could not really lay our at the beach because you would be harassed bu people selling things. I chose this area of Costa Rica so that we could be by the... more

We stayed at the Tamarindo Diria in October 2009 for 3 nights. We are a family with small kids and for us this was the ideal place to stay. Our kids are 5 and 7 and grandma also came along on this trip. We were in Tamarindo to surf a few days during our 10 day Costa Rica vacation. We... more

This place truly is beautiful and I had a wonderful time, but be careful when you check out! They tried to charge us extra for the snacks that are in the room saying that we ate or drank stuff that was not even there to begin with! Also, if you use the phone they will charge a lot for international... more

We got a condo at the Hotel Diria and it was much better than the hotel rooms there. We had easy access to the bigger and quieter pool across the street and the condo was practically brand new, furnished with all amenties including flat screen tv, internet, granite countertops, big bathub, marble floors. The grounds at diria were awesome, as... more

Wonderful location. Close to shopping, surfing and fishing. Rooms were clean and roomy. Food was excellent. Concierge was wonderful. Bar was always a great place to hang out after a day of offshore fishing. Pools were always clean and sparkling. Howler monkeys and crocodiles were an awsome treat-dont worry the crocs were south of the hotel near El Pescador restaurant.... more

Hotel Tamarindo was recommended by a coworker of his. The hotel is situated on the main strip, right on the beach...excellent location. We had a two... more

Very nice hotel and it was a great stay. Rooms are beautiful and spacious, and have a nice terrace, especially if you choose ocean view. Stayed here for a couple of days to enjoy the beach, the pool is very nice, and lounging by the ocean was great. The breakfast buffet was comprehensive and had lots of fresh fruit to... more

So my cousins and I, who are all around 25-30 yrs old, stayed at this beautiful hotel. When I first walked in...i was in awe. It was simply beautiful. It really is the ONLY resort found on the beach. We stayed in the Sunset Ocean View room on the 3rd floor and it had an incredible view and youre right... more

Just stayed 3 nights at the Diria. Great location in the middle of Tamarindo righ on the beach. Soft beach break in front, and better surf at rivermouth about half mile away. I was looking to hang out with surfers, but this is much more of a family hotel. Rooms are a little dated, but everything was very clean and... more
