“First Trip to Tamarindo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

Perfect in almost every way. The hotel room was right next to the huge, huge, pool. The room was very clean and the king bed very comfortable. We had everything we needed. The staff was very friendly and you could sense that they really enjoyed working there. We only had booked for one night but wish it was longer. We were a few minutes from the beach itself but fine with us. If you don't have a car they have a shuttle service going to the beach so no problem getting there at all. The pool is kept very clean in fact early the next morning they were cleaning it getting it ready for the day.

One nice thing that we didn't expect was the free breakfast the next morning. It was great and a nice variety of foods.

We ourselves live in Costa Rica and travel around the country alot. I would definitely stay at this hotel again and have already recommended it to some friends here.

“Good for the price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2012

We stayed here for four nights and were reasonably happy with the accommodations. The price is VERY affordable and the rooms are clean, if not sparse. Keep in mind the location is not the best, as you must drive 10 minutes to Tamarindo. The restaurant that is adjacent to the property is not good, I would steer clear and go into Tamarindo to dine.

“great service nice and quiet”

Staff here go above and beyond to make your stay pleasurable. This is located a short drive from many beautiful beaches like Playa Grande, Tamarindo and Flamingo. The grounds are manicured and make for a quiet relaxing retreat. Breakfast is free with a choice of Continental or Typical. I suggest the Typical. The restaurant in front at first appears to have a limited menu until closer inspection. The Chef provides a varied selection of exquisitly prepared dishes as well as an assortment of gourmet pizzas. if you are looking for a clean comfortable and quiet, this is a great option. if you are looking for excitement and nightlife, have a car and drive 15 minutes sto Tamarindo.

This is a relative inexpensive motel similar to the independently owned Best Westerns throughout the American west. We stayed 1 night. The room was clean and comfortable, if a bit small. The pool is large and very nice, and the area surrounding the pool is beautifully kept and we enjoyed relaxing there. They have a free shuttle which goes in to town once a day at 10:30 and returns late in the afternoon. We took the shuttle in the morning & returned in a taxi. The taxi costs $10 one way. The staff was very helpful in every way. The buffet breakfast includes typical hot and cold items, but no cereal, and was just OK. If you don't need to stay in town, or don't want to pay the price, this is a great choice. The pizza restaurant next door is just OK.

Lovely place. Good service yet limited for eatting. They serve breakfast only (which was delicious) and there is a pizza bar next door. I loved it here because it was quiet and intimate.
