The garden benefits from more than 40 years of carefully maintenance with lots of love..with flowers and trees you think you find yourself in a botanical garden. Hummingbirds are flying around your head during breakfast. And finally...the food was gorgeous...homegrown vegetables and fruits and produces such as ricotta cheese..very royal quantities...your own grand mother would not have spoiled you so well.

Everything was just wonderful. Mati and Maria are great hosts. They made us feel very welcome in their house. It didn’t feel like a hostel but like a home. We cooked dinner together, played board games with everyone at night and they even took us on a surf trip to another beach. Mati is also a great surf coach himself and you get a discount for surf lessons and board rental when staying with them.
The location is perfect, close to the city and the beach. The house is very beautiful with an outside area and balcony you can use. The kitchen and bathroom are very well equipped and always clean.
This is the best place we stayed at on our journey and we really enjoyed it. If you go to Tamarindo you shouldn’t miss out on this.

It was in a good location, very close to town. Was one of the cheapest hostels in Tamarindo. Rooms were decorated nicely.
I loved everything about this space. My budget room was small but perfect for my stay. I loved cooling off in the dipping pool before bed each night. Great location … 5 minutes to walk to all restaurants, beach and shops but also not right in the middle of all the late night music etc.
The hotel is in a great location, easy to walk to the beach and restaurants. The room was spacious and clean, the pool area was great. The breakfast was delicious, it was nice that it changed each day. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Parking is easy. We felt safe here.
Lovely hostel, great common area, helpful and friendly staff. They offer good discount for surf lesson. Everything you can wish for as a backpacker
Lovely hostel, perfect location right by the beach, felt safe as a solo female traveler, the girls working there are so lovely and made me feel super welcome ☺️
Nice airy hostel. I stayed in the 8 bed dorm. There was plenty of space around each bunk bed, a fan and AC and a cabinet each to lock with key. Although a small hostel there was ample communal space in the front ( large sofa,table) and on the balcony plus some work out space. Kitchen was clean and well equipped with new pans etc. Staff were really welcoming and super helpful going the extra mile. Location was great. Quiet time 10pm to 7am and not a party hostel which is what I wanted. Very well run and friendly.
Good breakfast. Need more options though.. Great location. Safe sorroundings
