    Favela Chic is in a great location within walking distance ( or free bicycle ride) to Tamarindo. Close to great restaurants, the beach and shops. Very friendly people with most of them able to speak English or direct me to someone who could. Would like to return soon.

    Very nice small town feel. Really enjoyed the restaurants.

    Very nice small town feel. Really enjoyed the restaurants. It was very hot in early April when we visited. End of the dry season so but lush at all. Everything is within walking distance. Go check out the zoo there. If you can get a car go visit Lola's which is a 40 min drive away. No one there on that beach. Massages on the beach are inexpensive and worth it. Renting beach loungers are cheap with unbrella. Some restaurants on the beach have them too. Lots of restaurants along the beach.

    Great small surf town, with everything you need within short walking distance. Variety of cuisine with Happy Hour offers (take them as food is pricey here). We mostly ate at "Soda" restaurant (any spot with Soda means it's local food). Fire throwers perform nightly around center of the beach. Tip them, it is amazing what they can do. River Boat tour showed us mangrove vegetation, crocodiles and iguanas. Blue Dolphin sunset sailing was super fun, check the wind report before booking. Horseback riding available at the beach, I'd recommend morning time when tide is low. Sand is pack then and beach is wide for them to walk on. Sun is sneaky here and you can burn easily, so be careful.

    I love love love Tamarindo! I've actually been looking non-stop at properties to see if there is a place I'd like to live. It's unlikely that I will move there permanently, but I'd love to have a little place to be able to visit once in awhile!

    We were disappoined in Tamarindo ~ it felt like a tourist trap with all the sidewalk tour booths. We went snorkeling with one of the booths by the beach which was definitely NOT worth it as there was absoluately nothing to see. We discovered Native Way & booked a tour to the Estuary which was excellent compared to another guest who booked from the booths by the beaches. I also heard many of them are scams as they want a deposit which will be the last you'll hear ofthem. We would recommend Native Way if you want to book any tours. We were disappointed becaue Tarmarindo was more expensive than we expected. There were only a few "shops" that were not filled with "souvenirs" that were probably not even made there. Go to the Night Market on Thursday or Farmer's Market on Saturday for unique gifts made by local artisans. Food at Restaurants were good but not the prices. We recommend Tabu & Pico Bistro. Pangas is over rated... food was so so but atmosopshere was out of this world.

    This hotel was excellent for our family of 5. We enjoyed being able to walk to the main town of Tamarindo and the beach (approximately 20 minute walk). The town and beach are somewhat busy which made us appreciate even more the quiet location of the hotel. The property is small but well maintained and clean. We enjoyed our breakfasts at the hotel as well as lounging around the pool. Also while not necessary in this area we rented a car and were able to park outside the hotel without difficulty.

    We enjoyed talking to Pavel and appreciate his hospitality. He and his family and staff are very helpful and friendly—the perfect hosts. A full Costa Rican breakfast each morning was a great start to our day. The location is close enough to walk to the beach, restaurants and shops, while far enough to be quiet at night. We didn't mind no ocean view, since the courtyard, landscape and decor are so tranquil and beautiful, and we could walk everywhere without a steep climb.

Accommodation, shower, bed, breakfast, surrounding property and LOCATION is 10/10 - we are not worthy!! haha - it’s truly underpriced but allows for longer stay cause who wouldn’t want to stay longer :)

    This hotel is run by a lovely family. There are many breakfast options and everything I tried was great! The family went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable, booking a shuttle to my next destination in Costa Rica for me, and even serving breakfast to me earlier than usual on the day of my departure. There's also a nice pool which is a great place to relax and meet other travelers.
