“Amazing and thoughtful hotel experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

i travel a lot so when I find a hotel as perfect as this I have to write about it! This charming and comfortable little B&B is beautifully appointed and thoughtfully run by dashing Edwardo with help from his amazing wife Kim (niece of the original owner). This is a family affair ad they treat you as such, but with a respect for privacy and your every need. Beds are comfortable (they iron the high thread count sheets!!) and the outdoor showers in each room, provide an oasis of hot water and calm. The breakfasts are AMAZING!!! and they went out of their way to accommodate my both my food allergic and foodie sensibility. Not easy, but they succeeded! While the beachfront isnt swimmer friendly, it is a perfect spot to explore the tide pools and watch the sunset. And great swimming and surfing beaches are within 3 mins of walking! It was a pleasure to stay here!!

Room Tip: try the honeymoon suite with an indoor hammock!

“Perfect!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

Amazing beach. Wonderful staff. Delicious breakfast included each morning. GORGEOUS pool. Rooms are cozy and quaint with local crafty decor. Only downside is you need to take a cab to get into town. We had an amazing time!

“Perfect christmas treat!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 November 2011

My boyfriend and I travelled around Costa Rica for three weeks over the Christmas period and spent four nights here starting Christmas Eve.

It was simply stunning. The room was big, outside private shower, high quality decor and very comfortable. The hotel only had eight or nine rooms so it was nice a quiet and unintrusive.

Breakfast was included and was usually 3 courses by there in house chef. Very tasty.

The hotel is set right on the beach which we sat on every day. Was also quiet and relaxing and a perfect sunset location with a couple of beers. You can walk into the main town each night but would recommend a taxi back as its abit dark. You can also walk along the beach to the main town during the day aswell - about 10 minutes or so.

They operate an honestly bar and generally make you feel like its your very own home during your stay.

Loved it!!

“Tranquila! A great escape.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 October 2011

Just returned from a 3 night stay at Sueno and can't say enough good things. Lily's breakfasts started our day off right each morning! Great traditional flavors done homestyle. I would like the fresh juices every day of my life! The staff was so friendly and helpful. from the moment we booked, Eduardo, Andrina and Susanne were super helpful in making arrangements for excursions, giving us directions and making us feel welcome and at home. We live in NYC so the peacefulness of Sueno del Mar was perfect for getting away. The place might not be for everyone--if you are looking for a large property with tons of amenities this isn't for you. There are rustic rooms, a rocky (but beautiful and relaxing) beach with great furniture and lots of hammocks to just read and relax and outdoor showers--but for those that need a litle bit of luxury--there is air conditioning! The town is not too far of a walk on the beach (At least for New Yorkers!)--it's beautiful at night with lots of stars .to see. We loved the sense of being close enough to "civilization" but far enough away to feel like we had our own private paradise. Perfect getaway with wonderful people who make you feel like a family. Highly recommended.

Room Tip: The honeymoon suite has a great view of the ocean but is a little bit noisier since it is above the...

“Best breakfast in Tamarindo”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We just celebrated our wedding in Tamarindo, and fully booked Sueno with our wedding guests. Everyone was in heaven - it is so quaint and perfectly rustic! the accommodations are lovely and the staff incredible. But nothing can compare to their breakfast! Every morning the dining room was filled with our wedding guests. many were staying elsewhere, but could not pass up the Sueno breakfast to start their day. A MUST eat when in Tamarindo, and a great place to stay!
