The tent was a comfortable space with a good bed and adequate lighting. It also had a space at the front with two rocking chairs and a small table. The whole area was kept clean and tidy, including the shared shower block.

The staff were really friendly and always eager to help. The kitchen was very well equipped, and everyone was very organised. Also, the hammocks near the pool were very comfortable to relax during the day.

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.

“Amazing place to stay in Tamarindo”
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 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.

“Perfect hostel to relax”
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 will go again tmrw.”
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.

“Really enjoyable”
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
