"U"

Hotel La Palapa

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible property steps from the beach. They were super helpful and kind. We had our 18 month old with us and everyone was wonderful and sweet to him. The view is amazing. Great beach chairs right outside the room that are included in the price. The location on the main road in town is excellent too. Couldn't be any better!!!! We will be coming back."

Hotel Perla de la Playa

10/10 Excellent

"De la Playa was amazing. We had security at night to make us feel safe. We had access to its sister hotel right next door, the Tamarindo Diara. Both hotels were right on the beach with beautiful ocean views. Highly recommend this property, staff was amazing, you will not be disappointed, will be back soon"
