Without a doubt, this is our favorite beach and hotel when our goal is to get away from screens and a crazy city life! The boys explored the tide pools for hours and saw so many cool tropical fish and sea life! #LifeAtExpedia #vacationwithkids #exploringthenaturalworld

"Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Thank you."

"Lani and her team were delightful to work with. My company chose this venue for our 30-person mastermind.Every staff member we came into contact with was kind, polite, and happy to have us on the property! We loved the pool and the bar area/event space was perfect for our event. If we had any questions, the team was quick to respond and take action. Our only hiccup is that we weren't prepped well that the "office" bedroom listed on VRBO was not quality enough to sell to a client. This taught me...

Top Playa Negra Hotel Reviews

Wyndham Tamarindo

10/10 Excellent

"Perfecto"

Margaritaville Beach Resort Playa Flamingo

10/10 Excellent

"This property was kept spotless! The people working on property were absolutely amazing! They were kind, helpful, and genuine. We ate on property most meals and enjoyed all of them immensely. The resort is small and quaint and felt very much like a large family with a wonderful beach to walk on adjacent to the property and a large pool with swim up bar to cool down in. Can’t wait to go back!"

Hotel Arco Iris

10/10 Excellent

"Wir haben ein paar Tage im Arco Iris verbracht und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und das frisch zubereitete Frühstück hat uns sehr geschmeckt. Besonders geschätzt haben wir die Tipps zu Ausflügen und Restaurants, die uns Fredy gegeben hat. Wir kommen sicher gerne wieder, denn das Hotel ist ruhig und trotzdem sehr zentral gelegen. "

Occidental Tamarindo - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Is a very nice resort, the buffet food had a good variety. They had fruit out at every meal. The staff was very helpful. We went to italian restaurant for one dinner, the food was excellent. The service was excellent there too. The check in and out was quick. Remember to drink water, it is very warm outside, especially when you are in sun. The beach was beautiful but it has a lot of large rocks. I am not a beach person but ocean views were spectacular. "

Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved this hotel. We checked in when the sun was setting and fell in love immediately! Our room was on the first floor with ocean view. We spent an entire day just relaxing at the pool and beach and eating at the delicious restaurant. My husband never wants to do that but he loved it at the resort. When we were leaving we peeked in to see the pool across the street and wish we would’ve gone in it - it’s beautiful! Everyone was so kind and worked so hard. We definitely recommend it. "

Ten North Tamarindo Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The A/C worked really well and the rooms were perfect for our family of four. The shower worked great. Our favorite part was waking up in the morning to the patio table set for breakfast and a delicious, fresh meal made as soon as we came out. Our girls enjoyed the pool and I enjoyed that we could watch them from under the fan on our patio. This was a great spot with easy walking to restaurants and the beach too! "
