We just had our second stay here and love it for the radiant view, quiet ambiance, and basic comforts – an oasis of calm in the tropics. The units are well maintained, with bedroom, bath, living room and a deck– with the bonus of a stove and fridge, as well as AC and TV in the bedroom. The shower with... More

My wife Ellen and I recently stayed at Tamarindo Estates. First off, being in Culebra is like a trip back in time to a place where everything moves more slowly and every one is pleasant and helpful. Don't look for a lot of upscale groceries or great roads. You will find absolutely beautiful beaches, very good restaurants, beautiful scenery, and... More

This place is our little secret. So I am very hesitant to share our favorite spot. If you are the kind of person that wants the caviar to burst in your mouth in a precise moment, stop reading, go elsewhere. This is not Ritz Carlton style. The cottages are small and simple. You get a small bedroom and a kitchen... More

Tamarindo Estates Beach Cottages are not on the beach. Although a ten/twelve minute jeep ride (a must for this island) from world class Famenco Beach, Tamarindo cottages are about a quarter mile up the hill from a good snorkeling beach; lots of coral. There are 3 buildings with 12 units. The kitchen is adequate with full fridge, stove, etc. but... More

The review mentions the 10 minute drive from the airport by Jeep (“a must for this island”), and also that the access road in “is a mile plus of ruts and huge potholes,” and “once you bounce your way into the property, it is quiet”. Unfortunately, we have no control over the roads leading to the property. We realize that... More

Our family has been staying at Tamarindo Estates during spring break for many years (five of the last six) and plan to return in March of 2012 again. The snorkeling off the private beach is fantastic and the reef contains an abundance of fish, and sharks and stingrays, I even saw an octopus last year! The cottages are simple but... More

Excellent service, gorgeous view of Luis Pena Key and Puerto Rico. Close to everything and to Flamenco Beach. You can scuba there and kayak. Beautiful, secluded pool. More

I approached Culebra with the mindset that it would be a rustic, no-frills vacation. Even so, Tamarindo Estates was a shock. It’s like a welfare hotel apartment – with a view. I’m assuming the cottages were originally built to house the plantation workers and therefore were probably never designed to be particularly nice. The owners apparently want to maintain the... More

Tamarindo Estates is a small secluded complex of 12 kitchen-equipped apartments on a 60-acre estate. Its accommodations are simple, comfortable, well-kept, and Eco-friendly. The hotel has the lowest room/acreage density you will find in Culebra or even elsewhere, which means you will feel totally secluded. The quiet, tranquil setting is just what many want with today's hectic pace of life.... More

My first visit to Culebra over thirty years ago included a stay at what was then the island's only hotel. I'll only say that for many years after that, the preferable way to stay on the island was camping on the beach. Since then, there have been many attempts to develop acceptable facilities that pass for hotels, inns or lodges.... More
