Hotels with Water Slides in Tamarindo

"We had a wonderful stay at Jardín del Edén. The property is very well maintained, with stunning views throughout. The staff were consistently warm, welcoming, and attentive. The food exceeded our expectations. The breakfast buffet offered a nice mix of daily variety along with staples like an egg and waffle station, fresh fruit, bread, and Gallo Pinto. Dinners were fresh, flavourful, and offered great variety over the course of our stay. We also enjoyed several of the wellness activities, including yoga, sound healing, and salsa lessons. All were well organized and suitable for all experience levels. The location is excellent, right in the heart of Tamarindo. It was easy to walk to shops, a grocery store, and the Thursday night moonlight market. Overall, a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We will definitely be back!"

"I recently stayed at Occidental Tamarindo and overall found the experience underwhelming. There were a few positives. The resort is close to the beach, making it easy to enjoy the ocean. The pool area was nice, and it was never difficult to find a chair. The resort is smaller, so it didn’t feel overly crowded. We also arrived a few hours early, and staff allowed us to store our bags and use the pool and restaurant while we waited, which was appreciated. Unfortunately, the negatives outweighed the positives. The food was bland and repetitive, with limited options at the buffet. The policy of only being able to book à la carte restaurants once every three days felt very restrictive. The room had several issues. The shower flooded the bathroom floor due to overspray, and the drain did not work properly. Staff cleaned the water but never fixed the drain. On top of that, even with the AC on full power, the room stayed very hot and uncomfortable to sleep in. Service around the pool was lacking. There’s no swim-up bar, and getting drinks meant waiting in line. No staff came around to take orders. The gym also needed maintenance, as several machines were not working properly. Overall, I was not impressed. I would rate it 2 stars and would not return."

"Love this place!"
