This is the best hostel I went to during my 5 weeks in Costa Rica. Beds are comfortable, there is a huge bathroom where there is shower and toilet in each unit, great kitchen with lots of kitchenware and two electric stoves. In the dormitories there are enough space for all the backpacks and stuff. They have small lockers for valuables. Nice pool with sunbeds and hammocks. And beautiful plants in the garden. Staff and volunteers and super nice and helpful, they really care about the wellbeing of their guests. And also the hostel is very clean. Close to center and supermarket. I am more than happy I chose this one in Tamarindo.

I can't think of anything. Maybe they could put curtains on the beds because the light coming from the garden can be disturbing during the night.

The king room was a huge separate building and one of the comfiest beds ever. Tons of space. The pool was so refreshing, I saw tons of birds and iguana. The people were really friendly, and the kitchen had what you need to cook + some coffee in the morning. I appreciated that it was a little out of the way of the busy part of town, ~a 10 minute walk from the main stuff in town

There were some ants when I first arrived, but there was ant spray and I had left out a piece of food when I first arrived, so it might have been my fault. With the spray and removing the food, they were gone the next day. Some guests got quite loud at night, but at the lights out time (11?) they quieted down

I loved the art, the room/bunk bed set up, they had a kitchen everyone could use, the bathroom set up was great with multiple toilets and showers in each closed door stall, they offered a towel, (a lot of hostels do not offer towels), it was small and homey. The layout with separate hangout areas was good.

I didn’t like the male volunteer/employee who helped at the front desk and around the hostel. He’s rude, judgmental, w/ no patience. He’s not chill enough to be there in any capacity, in my opinion.

Lovely place just a short walk from all the shops and restaurants in Tamarindo. I stayed in a tent and was a really comfortable and enjoyable stay. Kitchen area is used far more than I thought by many travellers. Toilets and showers are clean *they are cold showers For the price it was great staying in the tent. Areas are clean and well kept. Pool is clean

Although it says quiet from 2200 this was sometimes pushed by some guests but with a fan by your head it drowns out any other noise

Honestly my boyfriend and I had a blast at this hostel. The Personal are really helpfull and kind. Speacially the ones that we have the chance to meet. Like Mayda and the other tall guy that i cant remember his name. The place is really easy going. Kitchen always clean. Just a step aways from everything you need in tamarindo. Its really a chill vibe and I recommend 100%. The cleaning people are working hard to keep the place perfect and its work. Again we totally recommend.

Everything was perfect.

This hostel was great. Big rooms, kitchen and bathroom. Everything was super clean. Quite social hostel as well. The room temperature with ac was great. I had a great stay. They even offered private surf lessons for 45$.

They did not provide oil or any spices to cook, which was quite disapointing. They only provided salt. Providing the cooking basics would be a great addition to the hostel.

I stayed in the King Studio and it was enormous. Really liked it. Great value for money. The staff were lovely. Easy to socialise with other travellers. It’s a chilled hostel so don’t expect beer pong, pool and bar crawls. Good location, 5 mins walk to centre of town and the beach. Very quiet at night.

Not much. Maybe a little too chilled for me as a solo traveller. No bar but my room had a fridge 😉

This place was perfect for my partner and I. We are both young, adventurous travellers and when we stayed here, we felt like we stepped into another home. It was so nice to meet people from all over the world. We were in the tent and it was literally the best sleep we had in Costa Rica. We'll be back!

We were only there 1 night so didn't really notice anything we didn't like. We loved everything.

We loved the hostel, the glamping was very cozy and plenty of space, with lights and fan. There’s a kitchen when we can storage food and prepare meals, common area with sofas and tables and a lovely pool which was quite warm even by the evening. All the Spaces were very clean.

To leave… Maybe an extra option of power plug would be nice.

I loved TamaHostel! I visited several hostels in Central America in the last months, and this was by far my favorite. The beds are comfortable and the dorm rooms have AC, the pool and hammocks amazing, the kitchen and bathrooms are practical and cleaned continuously, and the staff were super friendly and helpful! They can organise surf classes if you want :)

Nothing... :)
