Best part of our trip!

Right on a gorgeous sand beach with the best sunsets in the area, friendly and helpful staff, excellent pool, amazing room, blah blah blah. We would would go back to Tamarindo just for this hotel.

Beautiful hotel

Pros: The rooms are clean, the hotel is quiet, and the breakfast is delicious.
Cons: It would be nice if the hotel offered a free shuttle into town.
Location: The town seems to be a major destination for surfers, so surfing lessons are available throughout the beach. Zip lining is also nearby.
The hotel is beautiful. It is kept neat and clean throughout. The staff is very friendly and does their best to accommodate your requests. The beach is steps from the hotel. However, it is rocky in that area so you have to go to a different part of the beach if you want to swim. The hotel is located about 5-10 minutes from the center of town. It would be nice if the hotel offered a free shuttle, but it does not. You can take a taxi for $5 each way, or borrow a bike from the hotel. There are howler monkeys on the grounds. You can sometimes hear them in the morning and you're sure to see them hanging out in the trees.

Paradise on the Pacific

Pros: We liked that it wasn't a high rise 300 room hotel. It was cozy with beautiful grounds to wander. The sunsets viewed from the beach were gorgeous.
Cons: We thought it was perfect.
Location: The town is within a 15 minute walking distance and the larger beach where swimming is possible is only a 10 minute walk. There are many tour options.
My husband and I had a great trip staying at Cala Luna, The hotel is small with all amenities easily accessible - a 3 minute walk to the beach from our room! The hotel room was beautifully decorated, very clean and the bed really comfortable. The staff was extremely friendly and acommodating, booking last minute trips to make our visit to Costa Rica memorable. The pool, bar and restaurant were also excellent. We never felt the need to eat elsewhere and we've eaten in many highly rated restaurants. We highly recommend Cala Luna and look forward to a return to this resort.

Costa Rica Escape

This is a very nice hotel featuring mostly private villas with private swimming pools. Our family stayed for 8 nights and had a great time. The restaurant was very good and they also have an on-site sushi bar near the larger resort pool that was enjoyable. Our ""garden"" villa had a full kitchen, pool, 2 bedrooms and 2 paths. Nice decor and furniture. Since it is on the outer end of town, transportation is advised. The walk into town is a couple miles on a bumpy dirt road. Good exercise, but not sure if I'd want to walk it each night. Cab and bus service to the Cala Luna is available. If we return to Taminindo, we'll stay again at this place. Recommended!

Nice hotel but noisy neighors

This hotel is ideal for couples who prefer peace and quiet over the bustle in nearby Tamarindo. On the upside, it has beautiful rooms, super landscaping and a nice pool. but service at the front desk is poor and construction noise at neighboring condo developments woke us up at 7 am! The road that connects this hotel with the town (Tarmrindo) is a bumpy dirt road with potholes as big as craters. But the beach is just a few steps away from the hotel rooms and at low tide you can walk to town on the beach.

Costa Rica Surfing Vacation

The staff at the Cala Luna Hotel, were awesome. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The food was great, and location was good as well, close to Tamarindo but yet far enough where you had quiet and privacy. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone, especially couples for the privacy and seclusion factor.

A little luxury but need a car

The hotel is located 2 minutes outside of town by car. I don't recommend you walk it because the road is dusty and rocky. There are security guards all over the property and entrances so it feels quite safe. The standard rooms are spacious with a private terrace. The beds are not as high quality as one would expect in a hotel of this class. The landscape makes you feel as if you are in a small villa even though you are surrounded by other rooms. The pool is medium-sized but the pool area is small for the number of rooms. The breakfast was very good with a lot of variety. The dinner was poor. Two out of our three plates were overcooked and over-seasoned. The service was very good for the most part with very friendly and talkative servers. The only serious flaw is that there were stray cats roaming into the restaurant that had to be constantly chased away. The poolside bar made very good cocktails but the service was slow. The tour desk was helpful but only staffed part of the time.

STAY AWAY

BEWARE! Hotel in the middle of nowhere. Dusty unpaved dirt roads. POOR front desk service. Unhelpful and disinterested in guests; interested only in talking on the phone & playing on the internet. Rooms OK, but bugs present. Beds hard and uncomfortable. The beach & town are too far to walk to. Nearby beach is a rocky dangerous shore. Hotel was mediocre, not a ""Small Luxury Hotel."" Restaurant was Good-ask for MAX. Hotel was 1/2 empty during busy season. Costa Rica is a roughing it vacation. Construction and dust EVERYWHERE. Surfing is Great, Scuba Diving is non-existent.
