Excellent location out of the hustle and bustle. Lots of stairs, but a beautiful spot.

Great hotel in a convenient location. Excellent customer service and good breakfast.

The staff was nice and pleasant but moldy smell of bedsheets was horrible

Nice spacious room with ice-chill AC for them muggy nights. Room was clean and the owner Mr. Cameron was very helpful, breakfast was yummy. Will stay here again

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.

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)

A super quaint boutique hotel on the hill. Steve and Martha are great hosts. The rooms are comfortable and perfect for the tama vibe!

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!

Fabulous play to stay in Tamarindo. We stayed two adults and two kids for a week- loved every day. Comfortable, clean and staff is excellent. 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.

Clean and affordable

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).

Delightful hotel - staff was warm and very accommodating. Rooms were comfortable. Breakfast was excellent. We will be back!

The property is set back from the main town which is great as you don't get the music noise which is extremely loud, it was 5 mins walk from the main streets and beach so was ideally located for us and there is parking if you have a car. The hotel setting is beautiful, with palms and trees to shade the patio areas and the pool/ dining/bar area is lovely. Our garden room which was near the reception was okay. The beds were very comfortable but I would suggest using cotton sheets as the air con in that room isn't very strong so it gets very warm at night. The bathroom shower area was lovely and the room was clean and tidy but a little bit tired in places. I would say that the room is a 2.5-3 star but the surrounding hotel area offers a 3.5 star. However we knew that we weren't in a 4-5 star hotel and the price we paid is fair for what we got and met our needs. Another suggestion would be to offer water in the room upon guest arrival as we arrived at night and were desperate for a drink. We were able to get water from your honesty bar but a bottle would have been lovely in the room for a quick reviver. If you want 4-5 star accommodation in Tamarindo you will be paying a great deal more and are likely to be located either in the town with all the associated noise or out of town, too far to walk. The owners, their children and their staff are 5 star as they are so lovely and helpful. We booked our Rainforest tour and transfers through Martha and it was all fabulous.

The hotel is in Costa Rica, it is an old hotel but for the most part is pretty clean and has some old world charm to it. The hotel is what it is. The problem with Tamarindo Village Hotel is the owner, Steve. Normally, I don’t leave negative reviews but I felt obligated in this case. Steve misrepresents everything, even when telling the truth will work. Steve will lie to your face and then laugh about it afterward. Steve also has never been at fault for anything in his life. He reminds us of Matilda’s dad, Harry Wormwood. Before renting a bungalow, I called and spoke to Steve on the phone. He assured me we had a king size bed and perfectly functioning air conditioning and a private hot tub. When we arrived, we learned we did have a king size bed and AC, they are just not in the same room. We did have a private hot tub, just no heat. Open air showers mean no privacy, Steve and the neighbors had full view on the interior of our bathroom, including shower and toilet, this place is super creepy honestly. From our room not having water 3 out of 7 days, to the steps leading to our room, the walk up the super steep hill, renting golf carts, Steve literally lied about everything and always blamed someone else. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS! I would suggest avoiding this place at all cost. Steve the owner is simply dishonest and if you pre-pay with Expedia, you are stick trying to make the best of things.

A little hard to fìnd but once we settled in all good. Family run. Spoke to owner. Affable and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

The room was spacious and beautiful. A totally unique room and hotel.

Our stay here was only OK. The owners were kind and the cleaners and breakfast staff also very nice. The bedroom in our room had a large window that did not properly latch and lock, which made me feel uncomfortable since it had a roof right underneath and everything else in the area was heavily barred (window wise). The property right beside, which faced the window I am referring to, had a group of locals building on it. 2 of the 4 nights it was very noisy from their partying, which made sleeping difficult until the noise stopped. Breakfast was good though simple and repetitive. Overall it was ok, though I would look for another option if we were to go back.

Great overall stay.

I loved the small size and beautiful atmosphere of the place. Our room 'unit' was very private. I loved the most was the layout of the bathroom and shower. Large and beautiful.

Oswaldo was terrific. One of the most helpful people we've met in all of our years of travelling. The other staff were very pleasant too. Breakfast was very good. Liked the room. Lights outside of the room were missing as was the TV remote. Pool area is nice. Tamarindo is dirty, busy, dark. By far the least

Steven, Trevor and the staff were great hosts! The place was close to town, had a nice pool, great breakfast, quiet...highly recommend!

The friendly staff and unit were cleaned to perfection! We would have loved the trees to be trimmed so we could see more of an ocean view from the 1st and 2nd floors of the unit. The complimentary breakfast was a nice touch.

A nice quiet place to relax a short walk from the main streets of Tamarindo. 5 minute walk to the Thursday night market and a 10 minute walk to the beach. Breakfast was delicious and bed was comfortable.

I really enjoyed my stay with this hotel. The management staff was very friendly and accommodating in our needs and requests. The staff was available at all times of the day and night. Our room was clean, we had a little kitchen with a microwave, fridge, and dishes. Breakfast was served nice and hot every morning. I would stay here again!

Good property, can do a lot better in terms of cleaning and maintaining.

like: room clean, fancy and have all you need including refrigerator and microwave. hotel is a good location, close to a grocery store, beach and main street not like: 1)the road to hotel entrance is bad, no paved, dirty and dust. 2) no parking on site. 3) said room has garden view. i expected to view garden from windows but it is not. 4) the most disappointed: on 08/22/2022, i booked 3 nights with $229/ per night for 12/27-12/30, next day 08/23, i cancel one night. Orbitz agent contacted hotel manager Steve and got FULL refund agreement. I have all chat records and Steve’email to prove this. But Steve still charged 3 nights 08/23/2022 right away. when i checked out, i thought i should get Full refund on the cancellation but Steve said he only return $156. there is commission fee $42, i need collect from Orbitz. i contacted Orbitz. actually it is Steve does not return. also tax $23 not return either said already sent to government. i have been charged $73 for the cancellation! i never have this bad experience before. at this point, i will not recommend this hotel to anyone you need be careful if you need make change or cancel the booking with Steve.

A unique property up on the hill with extremely comfortable lodging, wonderful privacy, away from the traffic and dust of town. Also, from being elevated a bit, there are less mosquitoes and a nice breeze. The breakfast was wonderful. The pool and the Jacuzzis were very clean. I enjoyed an extremely relaxing stay and was very happy. Steve and Trevor go out of their way for anything you may need. Steve even drove me to the airport free of charge. I’ve never experienced that before. You can’t go wrong staying here. Vinny

This is a real gem just a short walk from the main drag in Tamarindo. The owners were incredibly helpful and friendly, and our family really enjoyed their hospitality. the rooms were HUGE, the AC worked like a charm (thankfully, it was hot), the pool crystal clear, cold beers in the honor bar, really a great place overall for our first night in Tamarindo! We would definitely return and I highly recommend it here! Unfortunately, we had to leave too early to enjoy the breakfast, but that was our fault ;)

A private & quiet hotel with nice rooms, gardens, pool and amenities. Owners were very friendly and helpful. Great location - a close walk to the beach and into town with many restaurants and activities.
