Second time there. We have enjoyed our stays both times. Would stay again if we ever revisit Tamarindo.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was really good along with the coffee! The pool area is nice and relaxing. The staff was friendly and helpful. All around a great experience especially for the price.

Not a family place to stay

6.0

Booked a 7 night stay with our 17 yr old daughter , for our 3rd week in Costa Rica as we moved to Tamarindo. Once we arrived in town realised it wasn’t for us at all and hotel really just a nice back packing place to stay for a night or two. We paid a lot of money for the stay then booking. Com dropped prices by over 60%! So check prices as definitely not worth amount we paid. Room fine and clean but that’s it really. Breakfast limited to 6 choices but both hubby and daughter don’t eat eggs and 5 choices had eggs!!! So limited to basic fruit salad no melon or mango and some yogurt every day. Only orange juice offered Free coffee available during day usually cold and none freshly made. Beach towels and water filter nice touch. If we hadn’t paid out what we did would have moved to beachfront location as not a particularly nice walk by grotty road through back packers town to beach. Anyone over age 25 best to avoid Tamarindo all together as much nicer places to go .

Wunderbares Hotel

10.0

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.
