This was our last hotel on a discover Costa Rica tour on which we had been spoilt! The hotel and grounds were great and the beach club lovely but without a car a taxi into town cost $25 one way and the restaurant menu wasn't vast. They need to bring some of the food options at the beach club to... More

My fiancee and I had a wonderful time and a great experience. They made us feel welcome and the weeding planner Maria Jose Montoya really gave us great tips and made us feel confident about having our weeding there, she was very caring, great service, awesome facilities, delicious food and drinks, and very professional staff.

I spent 4 days at this lovely resort at the end of a 12 day 'discovery tour' of Costa Rica. I was greeted at reception on arrival by two lovely ladies and was allocated a super well equipped tasteful bungalow near the pool and restaurant. I was a little disappointed at first to find the beach was a little way... More

My wife and I recently stayed 5 nights in a one bedroom junior suite with kitchen. The unit is within a cabin (modern/sleek) that has a second unit (a more standard hotel room) as part of it that is rented out separately. Conversely, a larger family (or another couple) could rent both units as there is an interior door that... More

This is set in a large private estate where there are also properties to buy or timeshare. The hotel itself is very well kept and the room we had was spacious with a TV and fridge and a large bathroom. The reception staff are very helpful although they won't give you tips to get away from the area economically. We... More

It's an excellent place. Accommodation and grounds were beautiful. Very clean. Staff were very friendly, helpful and genuinely nice and informative both at the resort and the beach club. Breakfast buffet was o.k.The restaurant on site was fancy and expensive. However the one at the beach club was more reasonable and offered a variety for adults and children-food was excellent...

The rooms are generous, with kitchenettes and sitting areas. It is located in a gated community about 15 minutes from Tamarindo. There is a gorgeous beach facility with a larger infinity pool nearby, a great golf course,... More

The hotel is a little away from Tamarindo city center (where all the action is). The roads to this hotel from the city center is bad and takes about 25 mins to get there.

The room was large with a king bed, sitting area, bathroom with shower, mini fridge, lots of extra towels for the beach. Las Posada consists of many two bedroom units spread out on the hotel grounds. There is a swimming pool with pool... More
