My partner and I had a wonderful time in this trip. We would definitely recommend to others and come again.

Service there is pretty good. Room was a little old and smelled moldy. Definitely need some maintenance. Good beach front and easy to get to.
Great get away

Great experience, amazing customer service! Very happy with my stay here, the entire crew was very attentive and made me and my family feel welcomed. A special shout out to our bartender Johan! He made some delicious drinks and really went out of his way to take care us.
Limited Access to Basic First Aid Kit
love l on Jun 02, 2026
We had a concerning experience at Occidental Tamarindo when we needed basic first aid supplies. After requesting assistance from multiple staff members, we were told that only the lifeguard had access to the First Aid Room and its key. We waited over 1.5 hours before receiving antibacterial spray, gauze, tape, and bandages. The lifeguard was professional, knowledgeable, and very helpful when he arrived. However, no backup coverage during his lunch break and no accessible first aid supplies available through other hotel staff. For a resort of this size, guests should have quicker access to basic first aid and more than one trained staff member available to assist in emergencies or access to a basic First Aid Kit. We emailed the hotel with no response.
