Occidental Tamarindo Stay

The check in process was not the best. I arrived at 12:30pm and didn’t get a room until 430pm. Thankfully Stephanie at the front desk was able to get me a room at 430pm so I could prepare for sabbath. I got a floor on the first floor and then Stephanie was able to get me a room on a higher floor after sunset on Saturday. I was a bit surprised that as gold members I couldn’t get early check in nor could I get late checkout. The rooms weren’t very clean, in the first room, the shower pooled with water and the water didn’t drain very well. The second room it was better but the bed sheets were wrinkled and the bed wasn’t very comfortable. The food at the hotel was excellent. I really liked the food and the variety. The snacks were limitless and the beach was also nice. Amazing sunsets. The beach seemed to stretch forever close to the airport and close to activities.

The staff were great but there weren’t enough of them. Long lines at the bars (only 2 bars)-one day time bar, one evening bar. The buffet was understaffed. Often had to go and get our own water. Never had face towels or clothes in room!

This property is very average. Nothing really unique or great. We where a group of 9 people celebrating 3 birthdays. I made reservation at the a la carte and requested some special B-day cakes, but we got nothing. Also, the regular dining room didn't accommodate seating for 9 and when we arranged the tables ourselves to sit together, we got told that's not allowed. One more thing: if you're a smoker don't go to this resort

A great family atmosphere at the resort. The location of the resort is right on Langosta beach with gorgeous sunsets and crashing waves. The food is average. The drinks are average and served in paper cups so bring an insulated cup with you. The resort is very clean and the staff are very polite and hard working. The grounds are safe and the gardens are lovely. I would gladly stay at this resort again.

Our experience here was great, however all issues we had were with the dining area and staff. When they ran out of an item like coffee, creamer, plates, beer, etc, they didn't get replenished. Staff would say they ran out. They seemed to be short-staffed. Also, the 7:00pm dining time is late for those who get up early. 6:00pm would have been better. We ended up eating out every night rather than waiting. Food was sub-par. We were sick one night from the hamburgers in the snack area being undercooked. The self-serve beer was great but we only had it 2 days and then it was "broken". Lines at the snack bar for alcoholic drinks were very long and the drinks were very diluted. Other than that, we had a nice time and a beautiful view from our room. Lots of good restaurants in the area.

The property is beautiful, the pool and beach are great, short uber to town cost about $6, lots of shops and great food. They say they include 2 nights at an Italian or Japanese restaurant but you have to make reservations, do it soon as possible or you may not be get in. They clean your room daily, they give 1 or 2 waters for the day, and sometimes forget to leave coffee. Go to the front desk and land they will send more to your room. There is a cold water dispenser by the bar. Bring a big tumbler for ice, cold water and beer. There is no pool side service for drinks. This is a self service property. You get your food and drinks. Overall the food is good. If your a want 5 star treatment don’t stay here. The grounds are 5 star, the rooms, food and service is 3 star at best.
