A beautiful hotel only surpassed by the exceptional hospitality of Marie and her staff. I felt immediately welcomed, and that warmth never faded throughout my stay. Extremely clean rooms and grounds. The location also can’t be beat - I felt safe at night on the private path back to the hotel. I will stay here every time I return.

Marie was an outstanding hostess. She was very organized and answered all our questions before and during the visit. She was helpful in organizing transportation to and from the hotel and a lovely trip to a Volcano. The facilities were fantastic with the small kitchen to make a small breakfast in the morning and a lovely outdoor shower. It was a six minute walk to the main beach and lots of restaurants, shops and groceries. I would highly recommend this facility for adults only and will definitely visit again.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. The pool was wonderful , refreshing and clean. The extra little things like filtered water and bottles in the room to have whenever needed. Peace and quiet, cant do anything about the roads, but that parking was sufficient and right next to the entrance.
Beautiful wildlife and very tranquil throughout property almost entrancing.

Absolutely outstanding! We stayed in villa 17. It was amazing. It was a free standing unit with tons of windows and the most gorgeous outdoor shower. Very well appointed with lots of supplies in the kitchen, full sized fridge, washer/dryer, close to the pool, and supremely clean and spacious. The staff here is wonderful. We got in late and it was so easy getting in and to our villa. Super close to lots of restaurants, bars, coffee places, and 5-10 min walk to the beach. We rented a car, and the parking was safe and easy as well. We will definitely be back.

Very quiet spot, does not feel like the rest of Tamarindo. Walking distance to shops restaurants, and beaches. My wife and I were kicking off a month in Costa Rica and it was an excellent transition spot. The apartment felt very homey with a very comfortable king bed and a very nice kitchen area with a table. The bathroom was also massive. A full coffee maker with coffee was provided. There was a full refrigerator and all the utensils we needed. They had a filtered water dispenser that served up cold water. They also had a nice little pool. Would definitely stay again if we are ever in Tamarindo.

Stayed four days at Tamarindo Boutique Hotel and honestly, it was a serene little slice of paradise. Marie, the host, is super sweet and always just a WhatsApp away. The second-floor saltwater pool with a tiny waterfall? Pure bliss. Loved the chill, adult-only vibe, simple, clean rooms with that laid-back beach feel. The back gate leads right to the main street but inside, it’s peaceful and quiet. Plus, those thoughtful touches like filtered water and onsite sunscreen by the pool really stood out. If you want a low-key retreat with easy access to Tamarindo’s buzz, this is your spot.

This is the most beautiful, peaceful and well designed property. Maria and Bathsheba were both so kind and helpful. I stayed in two different rooms, and each one was immaculate. The pools were both beautiful and the grounds were peaceful and perfect. The kitchens in both rooms had everything I wanted and needed to cook meals. I cannot say enough good things about this lovely hotel, that is just a few minutes walk to the beach and to town.
