The best part about this place was how quiet it was. Lovely to sit by the pool and not hear anyone else. Location was tucked back off of a main intersection so it was very close to anything you might want, and walking to the beach was quick as well. The only thing I would wish for is at least one or two other vegan options for breakfast, but the açai bowl was delicious.

This place is excellent. A perfect location in Tamarindo walking distance to all the restaurants and bars but also super chill and quiet. It's just far enough to be a perfect sanctuary to relax and reboot during the day. Super comfortable beds which really matters when you're surfing every day. Great co-work space and super solid internet. I don't even like staying in Tamarindo usually but this place changed my mind. I will be back for sure.

We only stayed for one night but it was perfect. Maggie checked us in and she was very kind & did a through job of showing us the place and amenities and was easy to get in touch with to communicate. She had a great sense of humor & was very patient and even carried my suitcase from my car to my room. This place was very clean and looks exactly like the pictures. The lights at night around the pool are very beautiful. It is so convenient how walking distance close it is to all the shops and food places around Tamarindo. Would love to stay again!

I generally don’t write reviews but had to do one for this hotel. It’s by far one of my favorites because the experience felt so humanized. It is a great place to stay and the staff are amazing! This is especially great for solo travelers like myself. It is safe, clean, rooms are modern and I was able to make a lot of friends during my stay. It really felt like a community. It’s walking distance from the beach and extremely close to restaurants and nightlife in Tamarindo. The pool is located perfectly in the middle of the property and allows for a nice space to hangout on a hot sunny day when you need a break from the beach. I absolutely recommend!!!

I will say this, the property photos really help it shine! It is a very simple space, but I would stay there again. The room smelled fresh and clean and was nice and cool when we arrived. But the rooms are basic, think dorm style. However, what it lacks in luxury, it makes up for in service, location, safety, and food. There are about 16 rooms total so it is very quiet and intimate. I got to know a lot of the guests and the staff got to know us. The food was delicious! Maggie and Sandra were extremely helpful with arranging transportation and excursions even from home. They helped us plan a spa day at Sibou, kind of nearby and it was the best spa experience I have ever had. The beach is a 7 minute walk and within a 5-10 minute walk, there are tons of shops and restaurants. Tamarindo is very touristy, so if you are looking for spots that locals run, this is not that place. But this hotel is a perfect place to access what Tamarindo has to offer as well as take taxis to other locations and excursions. Breakfast was delicious every day and very reasonable. Book here if you mainly want a cozy spot to hang outside by the pool and to serve as a landing spot between adventures. I feel like I unlocked a new way of traveling outside of the big fancy hotels and all-inclusive resorts and I like it! Simple can be super beautiful and fun!

This is the second time that I have stayed at ITS. The hotel is beautiful, clean, and an outstanding value for the price. The owner/management are amazing, ensuring that all of your needs are met. The pool is really incredible. Inside the room, the bed is comfortable and the shower is big. There is a microwave and refrigerator in the room, and outside on the patio, a sink and 2 but er stove and drawers with any dishes you will need if you decide to cook or bring something home to eat. There's really only 2 things that I don't think are great, and neither has anything specifically to do with the hotel. The hotel's location is off a side street and only a quick 5 minute walk to central Tamarindo. The street is in bad condition, especially after a rain. The other is not being able to flush paper down the toilet, which is very common at small hotels (and homes!) in Costa Rica. Just can't get used to throwing it in the garbage. But once again, this isn't ITS's issue, more of a Costa Rican issue in general. The great things about this hotel far exceed anything negative, especially the staff. Will definitely stay here again, and again, and again... Every time I am in Tamarindo, I will be a loyal customer at In The Shade!

Another great stay it In The Shade, even at the peak of rainy season :) I was traveling solo and this place is nice and quiet but not far from the main road where all the shops and restaurants are. They also have great food and coffee and smoothies in the morning. Check-in is easy and the staff is so very kind and accommodating. My favorite place to stay in Tamarindo and I have tried many places. Will be back again!
