We loved our stay at Tamarindo Village Hotel. My family chose one of the rooms with a second bedroom loft. It was located at the top of the hotel on a hill. I felt like I was in the jungle, removed from the tourists of town, yet we were very close (walking distance) to shops/grocery/restaurants and the beach. My favorite was that we had a private small dipping pool on our deck. Monkeys were playing in the trees daily. A large variety of birds were present as well. The entire property was very clean and well maintained. The owners keep the appliances up to date and the kitchenette was perfectly stocked with everything I needed but not too much. The breakfast was lovely. $7 for an ample amount of delicious food, or the buffet items are complementary. I love peaceful simplicity when I travel, and Tamarindo Village Hotel exceeded my expectations. We would be lucky to stay again.

Quiet oasis.

Located in a quiet area peaceful area away from crowds. I view this as a retreat or writing a book.
Room was nice and clean with a balcony. Small issue with the toilet, but was quickly remediated by owners (very nice couple, wife is very caring). Basic continental Breakfast (fruit, coffee, juice and toast) but they make to order if needed
Surrounding can use some upgrades. It is not the \"Marriott Marques\" as some of the feedback from the owner.
Nice access location to the beach and local restaurants.

We really enjoyed our stay. We were there for a week in late May (\"rainy season\") and pretty much had the place to ourselves. Even though is it technically a hotel with multiple units, it felt more like visiting friends. We had two units for our group of six (couple in their 50s with four kids aged 22, 20, 19, 15) and both units were clean, well maintained, and quiet, with powerful air conditioning. Steve and Martha could not have been nicer or more helpful. They went out of their way to make sure we were happy and enjoying our time in Tamarindo. Martha served up delicious breakfasts every morning and arranged excursions for us (night time turtle tour, day trip to Nicaragua, estuary tour, and sunset catamaran cruise). Yes, the hotel is located uphill from the beach on a bumpy dirt road, and yes, there are stairs to climb to get to the rooms, so this place is not for anyone seeking luxury or who has mobility issues. You might find some bugs or even a lizard in your room but if something like that does happen, you can be sure that Steve and Martha will be there to help. We were very comfortable here and never felt unsafe, even when making our way back to the hotel late at night. If you are a go-with-the-flow kind of person (ie - Pura Vida), this is a great choice for you.

Very cute property. The three of us liked our two bedrooms (queen, king, and bunk beds) with small kitchenette. The property has a security gate so we felt quite secure (most all the properties seem to have this - it seems to be a Costa Rica thing). The units are spread among several small buildings that ascend a hillside so there is an inclined path (and a few stairs) leading to most of them. Its very beautiful with much shade due to the many mature trees and bushes. Lots of flowers. The pool is small but refreshing. Breakfast was in the covered area next to the pool. There were a selection of 3 made to order options each morning plus juice, coffee, fruit, toast, etc. The area is quiet and the wall unit ac's with remotes worked great - though the bathroom is not included in the a/c area and has screen only windows to let out the humidity (or let it in!). We left the doors to the bathroom closed. The roads up the to property (along with the others nearby) are mostly dirt with a little gravel, somewhat steep, and last bit is bumpy. It was fine for our AWD vehicle and probably would be fine for a 2 WD vehicle. The walk to the beach took about ten minutes. Hotel is in a quiet area away from all the congestion and shopping but easy to walk if you don't mind a little dust and inclines (on the return from the beach/shopping area). Owners are very nice. We enjoyed our stay. Oh! And the wifi was excellent! Best of the four hotels we stayed in in Costa Rica.

This is a beautiful boutique hotel. The setting is impeccable. Rooms are located in a group of twos, with a total of only 11.

There's a lot of steps to climb to get to your room. But, the setting of the rooms rewards you well.

The access to the hotel and room is not easy. It involves some unpaved roads and climbing a few steps.

Martha and her team served us delicious breakfast each morning and was very helpful in setting up excursions. Trevor was always so accomodating...available to make coctails by the pool and answer any questions we had.

Look- if this property didn’t have pictures when you were booking it was probably be really exciting when you got there. I feel like the love of this property from the owner has been lost. I was most bummed about the patio which is 100% the reason we booked here. It does not look like the pictures anymore unfortunately and it is not a hot tub but a cold tub which with the heat in Costa Rica it was whatever. The first morning at 730AM we woke up to construction directly outside our bathroom that continued for each morning of our vacation- 3 nights. There are no windows on the bathroom so it was like the workers were in there with you. The water pressure works sometimes- one morning our toilet wouldn’t even flush. Not sure if that might just be something common in older properties here. Our WiFi only worked day one but we honestly stayed busy most the time we just let it be.
This property just needs a little TLC from the owner who I 100% believe had passion for it when he purchased it but just has lost it.
I struggled with the stars because if I had zero intel on this property I’d probably give it at least 4 stars. But given we book off of pictures so we were completely expecting something more updated and maintained, plus the very loud construction not a single person warned us about beforehand that brought the overall rating down.

What a Lovely Little Oasis

We happened upon this lovely little hotel after our plans changed last minute and we ended up in Tamarindo. The staff was very friendly and very welcoming. The room was spacious and had everything that we needed. We were situated next to the pool which had a lovely covered seating area where we spent a lot of time sitting and enjoying the beautiful trees and flowers that surrounded it. A hot breakfast was available every morning and the food was very good. They also had tosst, cereal and fruit available. There was an honor bar located next to the pool which was great when you needed a beverage but did not want to walk to the store. This hotel was a little off of the main strip but it made it very quiet and the walk into town and to the beach was not bad at all. We would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves back in the area.

This hotel is a boutique hotel situated on multiple levels so expect a lot of stairs to some of the rooms. We stayed in a 2 level room with an outdoor jetted tub surrounded by lush plants and a balcony where we could see the ocean. It was almost the top highest room on the property. I counted 49 steps not including a few slopes. The property is located somewhat near town.

Hummingbirds, iguana, grackles, a crab and butterflies visited the property. Breakfast was free with made to order fresh cooked food. Each day had a different set of dish options. All of the employees and owners are very nice and helpful.

The hotel appears to be hidden. It is on a dirt road that is not completely shown on Google street view. We walked everywhere to restaurants, shopping, and the beach. A small grocery store was nearby next to a bank with an ATM. A golf cart rental shop is located at the paved road closest to the dirt road up to the hotel. The dirt road has many bumps, and ditches. It is a challenge to drive on it without scraping the bottom of a vehicle. A golf cart will tip a lot but is doable up to the property entrance. Tour companies did not have trouble finding the hotel and will pickup at the front entrance.

The only improvements I would suggest are handrails for a few spots that did not have them, better draining in the shower (the hotel is aware of it), and the sliding door into the room needs repair as it is difficult to open and close. I would stay here again.

Perfect Boutique Mini Resort!! Individual bungalow type rooms with daily service. The outdoor (open top with screen enclosure) shower and bathroom was a great experience if your ok with trying something unique on your vacation. The staff was great and attentive from arrival to departure.

The hotel is not new but definitely well maintained and clean. The resort is beautifully located up high and surrounded by a forest type setting, hence Costa Rica! The resort is on a slope with lots of steps but definitely not difficult by any means and bug spray should be considered.

Everything was close but definitely recommend a car as the roads are unpaved. We had no issues finding places to eat and shop. Lots to do especially with the beach just minutes away.

We stayed with a group of 10 with 4 bungalows. Breakfast every morning was awesome and and a great start to your day.

I liked everything about Tamarindo Village but especially enjoyed the peaceful and private setting. I was traveling solo and stayed in #2 and initially felt like I was being indulgent with the size of the room but quickly gave myself permission to enjoy the tranquility of the accommodations. Owners were on site, very friendly and fluent English speakers. I was about two weeks into a trip and had developed certain questions about the area that they were able to help me answer due to my limited Spanish. The layout of the various rooms and suites into the hillside is different than most places in the area. Thankfully I like that but if mobility was challenging for you this might be something to consider. Clean, comfortable, friendly, private, all top notch. Mature landscaping allows you to feel like you’re in the jungle or above the canopy. I plan to return and personally do whatever I can to not stay at any one place twice.

From the moment we stepped into the reception area and met Trevor, we were greeted with warmth and charm. His welcoming demeanor made us feel like old friends, setting the tone for a delightful stay. The hotel itself is a true gem, surrounded by lush greenery, vibrant plants, and towering trees that create a serene atmosphere.

Our room, number 1, was a haven of tranquility. With a spacious window and a large sliding entrance door, we were treated to a picturesque view of the sun filtering through the branches and leaves of the surrounding trees. The melodic songs of birds added to the enchanting ambiance, gently caressing our ears each morning.

Each day began with a delightful surprise as we perused the menu featuring three different breakfast options, all brimming with fresh fruits and local flavors. It's evident that this is a family-run business, with Trevor's California roots shining through in the impeccable service and attention to detail. It's a refreshing departure from establishments solely focused on profit, as here, hospitality is paramount.

Situated atop a hill, the hotel offers both seclusion and convenience. A mere five-minute stroll takes you to a plethora of excellent restaurants, while a leisurely ten-minute walk leads you to the stunning beach. The well-lit alleys provide a sense of security even after nightfall, allowing for peaceful nighttime strolls through the charming town.

In summary, our stay at this hotel was nothing short of magical.

Steve and Martha are excellent hosts. Friendly and helpful staff made our visit fun, relaxing and stress free - we will not hesitate to recommend their hotel nor we will hesitate to return - Tamarindo is a wonderful beach/surf town with first class dining options and lots of exciting activities including surfing, horseback riding, boat charters and zip lining to name just a few. So much to explore in future visits.

Charming little villas with incredible interior design and space, and little details you don’t get in other places. The outdoor areas are really nice with lush trees and flowers. The pool area is great for that morning or afternoon time in the water. Breakfast was very good and changes daily. Overall a great place to stay.

Enjoyed it very much

Very cool place. Nice vibe. Walking distance from the beach and the city center, yet very quiet. Beautiful rooms; very clean. The AC system works well; you can adjust your room temperature easily. Very welcoming staff. They include breakfast, which is truly great, not only because the food is good but also because you get to meet the cook (she is a local) and the owner. This was our second stay there and will have no reservation coming back. (Family trip: 1 couple and 1 child 13 y/o)

We enjoyed our stay immensely. Owners and staff were helpful and gracious. Hotel has a homey feel due to friendliness of owners. Delicious breakfasts each morning and loved the unique and private casita (room 11). Highly recommend!

The staff was definitely friendly. Overall the pace was clean. It was not what i was expecting appearance wise. But it was comfortable to stay there and friendly people. Though my reading is not 5 star, i would recommend it and i would stay again if i were to visit the area.

I greatly enjoyed my stay. The hotel was walkable to everything in the town of Tamarindo. The rooms had everything that you needed. The breakfast and pool area were quite charming. There was quite a bit of construction in the area surrounding the property, but we found this to be true throughout the town and just embraced it as part of the local experience. Would definitely stay there again.

The owners and staff were professional and treated us with kindness during our 7 day stay there.
The construction noise next door was annoying , however, I realize that was beyond the owners control.
The morning breakfast was delightful and in a good location by the pool (if you would add in some sausage and/or bacon, it would make it even greater ).
The room was comfortable and cozy. The AC worked greatly and the restroom and shower areas were clean and nice. I did , however, see some ants often in the bathroom.
Suggestion : Place a wash machine and dryer in a building or covered part somewhere by the pool area. Some hotels allow the customer to buy tokens and soap to operate the WM and dryer. Laundry adds up quickly while enjoying the beach. There are no close laundry facilities from your location(unless one takes transportation or walks a long way on roads).
