Could use a renovation. All seems a bit worn. Helpful staff. Noone there to check out. Sketchy owner lurking outside the hotel at night made me uncomfortable. Pool was OK. Beach towels available.

Another great stay it In The Shade, even at the peak of rainy season :) I was traveling solo and this place is nice and quiet but not far from the main road where all the shops and restaurants are. They also have great food and coffee and smoothies in the morning. Check-in is easy and the staff is so very kind and accommodating. My favorite place to stay in Tamarindo and I have tried many places. Will be back again!
