Private suite in this hostel is incredible! Nice decor and confortable bed. Common areas including the swimming pool are well maintained. Highly recommended!

Fun place! Well-kept, with common kitchen & nice staff. (And I had private room that was lovely & well worth the price.) Attracts cool folks from many parts of the world. Easy to make friends. ...and just a few streets over from the beach, & from food & nitelife. Really enjoyed!

I had an amazing time at Tamahostel. I met alot of very interesting people from all over the world. The grounds and facilities are kept clean. It is also close to the beach, shopping  and restaurants. I would not hesitate to stay there again and I highly recommend it.

Everything you need in a chill hostel ! Surf boards and close to the beach, open area with hamacs and trees, big open guest kitchen... Surprised the hostel was not full !
Thanks again Amy for everything and sorry it took me so long to write ;)

Awesome vibes, staff and prices !

I came with a friend for almost a week. The private room was perfect for us. We really enjoyed the chill atmosphere, the nice kitchen area and the calm location away from the center. And what to say about the owners, always trying to improve their place, always smiling and here to help at anytime for anything. We will come back for sure!! Thank you so much

We loved our stay

Stayed in the tents and while it was kinda cool it was also fairly uncomfortable. The bed wasn't great and it was very hot. For the price we paid we could've just gotten a hotel. There is a fan but it makes a lot of noise. The hostel itself is very nice and has a good pool. Very walkable to the beach and the staff are very nice. Recommended if at a cheaper price.

overall the atmosphere is decent when  you walk in at night and the lights are set up all twinkley and beautiful. but i live here in Costa rica and I had work early the next morning and didnt want to drive an hour away back to myhouse just to get up at 6 and drive all the way back to Tamarindo.. so i needed a cheap place to stay and this was it.. 
But i think i will take my money elsewhere next time. I am sitting here at work with my eyes super puffy because i barely got sleep last night. The overall property is pretty small and the walls are thin so i was able to hear everybody partying and yelling and having fun until pretty late. Not only that but everyoe in my dorm were hanging out and talking with the lights on.so iwent to the front desk and asked for my money back and told him why. he apologized and went and turned the light off in the dorm and asked everyone on the property to turn the music down. it was very nice of him. so i go back to bed and i was soooo close to falling asleep on the top of the bunk bed. but then a couple rudely came in giggling and laughing dropping things and making all sorts of noise. then they got the bunk underneath me. And then started....doing stuff! you can imagine the whole bunk was moving. how the hell am i supposed to sleep?!?! they were moving around making noise for i dont know how long. it felt like hours.i busted out my earphones and listened to calming music but that doesnt stop the movement of the bed! and  they kept getting up and leaving and comingback and doing the same thing for hours. i am exhausted. and no i have 11 hrs of work to endure. not to say this is the hostels fault but it would be really great if couples would get a privae room out of consideration for others...oh but i forgot...who has consideration these days!?!?! very unpleasant experience

looking for somewhere to  sleep?

We stayed with two persons in the dorms. As said in another review there are two puppies running around but they didn’t bother us, they were pretty cute and they definitely didn’t keep us up at night. 

However, I didn’t really like the atmosphere of the place. Its very (too much?) laid back. There’s people in the hammocks all day, who didn’t all seem to be travelers??

It’s a camping with an outside kitchen and a bathroom building. Each stall houses a toilet and a shower, which felt kinda unclean to me. There’s a weird smell in these few blocks of town, which was kinda gross.

Anyway, nothing major I can fault on the place but I definitely wouldn’t be staying here again.

Not too bad, not good either

Feel free to find my Google review but long story short: one star for service. I complained after two nights bc the last night there were like ten ants in the bathroom that I had to kill, a spider on the wall, and tons of mosquitos (the mosquitos were expected) but the ants and other microscopic bugs were in the bed. Instead of saying I’m sorry and moving on, the owners had to belittle me instead. Made me feel like a spoiled brat. Said “I’m not sure if you don’t have ants in Mexico but we’re in nature right now”. Well these were red ants. One bit me. Woman tried to tell me I was a liar. I was simply writing MY opinion on MY experience and instead the owners attacked me on Google review. The bathroom in the private room with its own bathroom smelled like sewer. So strong. You had to have toilet and door closed otherwise it would stink up the room. Showering and getting ready I had to hold my nose. Walls are thin. Location is great. Owners also called me “phony” on Google review because I was smiling at people?? I’m just expecting for the owners to also call me a princess on this review. My boyfriend left a review sticking up for me. What I got from my conversation and the response to the review was that you should expect bugs in your bed because we’re in the wilderness?? Weird because we stayed in a bungalow in La Fortuna for 4 days IN the jungle and didn’t have an issue with bugs in our bed :) after reading other reviews top, the owners seem unprofessional so just be aware!!
