Hotels near Tambor airport

Pros: Very friendly and helpful owner, lovely grounds with great facilities

Pros: Owner is really nice and attentive. Swimmingpool Is wonderfull. Breakfast is really tasty (coffee, juice, fruits, toast, jam, eggs). Rooms have amazing view on the trees with monkeys. Everything was perfect!

Pros: Beautiful workmanship on the bungalows, the pool, the owner and says truly caring for each individual

Cons: Absolutely nothing

Pros: The breakfast was one of the best we have had in costa rica, good coffee as well. Thomas was very attentive and also helped us with getting a couple of dinners delivered as well.

Cons: The only thing we found that might make the rooms better would be to have a tea/coffee facility. Although Thomas did say that we could go and ask for coffee at any time.

Pros: We wish we could stay there longer! It’s absolutely gorgeous place. The feeling of the jungle combined with the luxury of modern world. Two swimming pools with a view! Attention to every detail! Very clean rooms and facilities! Big and tasty breakfast with eggs. And we enjoyed to meet the family who owns this amazing place, they are always ready to help and suggest. Thanks to that we had a chance to swim in the waterfall which only locals know about.

Cons: Small part of the path from the parking to bungalows is very steep. It was not problem for us but could be for some people.

Pros: Room space, breakfast, view

Cons: The pillows could be a little bit bigger. From parking lot to reception and rooms the way is uphill.

Pros: A well maintained property in the middle of the jungle, birds everywhere and extremely helpful owner who takes care for everything. Rooms are very clean and we enjoyed our private patio with view to the jungle.

Pros: Staff was very nice, caring and helpful. The view and the pool are amazing. It’s a little hidden paradise. We came here because of the very good reviews, but were a bit disappointed due to a few items.

Cons: Here are the few items that spoiled a bit our experience (and that other hotels with lower grades took care of): - No Wifi in the room - Shower door missing - Aircon remote screen broken - Terrible lighting in the room (insufficient and cold white) - Old mattress, could feel the springs - Extremely noisy roof when raining, slept with earplugs (ok that’s part of the experience) None of these items is a big concern, but we could expect from a 9.0++ hotel to take care of these...

Pros: The pools were outstanding and the view killer ! The staff could not be nicer and the owner was happy to drive you to town . Great value !

Cons: Room was average and the hot water did not work and the path to the pool would not work for a older person .

Pros: Amazing place! Very peaceful and beautiful, stuff is very helpful. Hotel has 2 infinity pools with amazing views, they offer breakfast and dinner and you can have cocktails/snacks any time you want you basically don’t need to leave the hotel. We spent amazing two days there just staying by the pool, sunbathing, reading and relaxing. Totally recommend!!!

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Amazing place. Nice staff. High recommend this place🙂

Pros: Great hotel with the best view on the ocean! Located at 5min in car of montezuma center or 25min walking. Very calm location, the only noises you can hear are the sounds of birds and monkeys. The swimming pool is one of the most beautiful we have seen, the view at sunrise is amazing. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The little casitas are clean and confortable. Good wifi around the pool. We definitely recommand this hotel !

Pros: Gorgeous pool and garden area

Pros: I loved the cleanliness and the unique style of the hotel. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful as much as they could with any requests we had.

Cons: On kayak the map shows as if it is walking distance to the town of Montezuma. Unfortunately, it is not walkabout because you are up in the mountain a bit. It is a very quick taxi ride to the town, however if you plan on staying out it may be a bit difficult to find a taxi for the ride back. I called the hotel and was unable to get assistance with a taxi back to the hotel so we just kept asking around town.

Pros: Quietness. Well equipped kitchen. Cleanliness. Nature. Spacious facilities.

Cons: Internet access is extremely limited to a small area and the speed is low. We were given so many instructions of type "don't do this, don't do that" - honestly, it felt somehow harrasing. Including the fact that there was an occasion when we left the room and the A/C stayed on; someone (probably Brigitte) entered into the room in our absence to turn the A/C off. That action offended us. They don't accept payments with cards, which is very old school for a touristic place and even illegal in CR.

Pros: It's a beautiful peaceful place to stay ill definitely be back

Cons: There's nothing to complain about

Pros: Hello, my dear friends. I'm here to let everyone know that Fidelito Ranch is a great place to stay, the premises the area the peace the comfort the nature, but above all, is the warmth that both owners makr you feel. I can say that I have two new friends and thar every time that I visit the area that's the place to stay. I'm sure you all will enjoy.

Cons: Excellent place no negative thoughts.

Pros: We loved staying at the lodge. The owners were very welcoming are have interesting things to tell at the same time separate house gives sense of privacy. In the morning we went to check the cows with Brigitte and the dogs and enjoyed the nature around. We also tried out their new internet connection and it works great. This is one of the places I would stay again and would recommend to my friends coming to visit Costa Rica :)

Pros: Great location - green and pleasant and great for bird watching . Also close to Tambor beach , montezuma and the Curu national park - all of which are great spots . Brigitte the host was very helpful with local info and organising ferries for us . The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook for ourselves and the rooms were cleaned every day. It felt very safe and relaxing - Thankyou Brigitte ;)

Cons: Sadly - through no fault of Brigittes the internet was down which made planning things and keeping track of our businesses harder - but kept the youth more interactive - so there’s always a bright side ;)

Pros: A/C pretty good. The Shower and also the utensils for cook were really helpful.

Cons: The place is 10 minutes from Tambor Beach. The place is sparkling clean and the owner was really helpful. She gave us directions to playa cocalito. This place is really good for the value, especially for a group of friends or family with a Sedan accessibly road.

Pros: Everything

Cons: Wow !! What an experience we had as a family in this beautiful ranch with those beautiful people- Brigitte and Lean are so genuinly kind and welcoming. We had great and interesting discussions in thz evening. The double room was very large, confortable and clean with an all equiped kitchen outside. Breakfast made by Brigitte, with delicious home made multigran bread and mango jam, was aamazing. The kids had a great horseback riding experience (because it is not like any other offered everywhere) .. Because Leon makes all the difference with his stories and because the horses are so happy in this place. When there, we visited tombor and montezuma... Both very close by car. The ranch is huge, very simple, peaceful and beautiful... We didnt want to leave this place... We hioe to be back soon and recommand to anyone wanting to experiznce a real finca in costa rica.

Pros: IM FIGHTING FOR MY MONEY BACK. WE ARRIVED AND IT WAD JUST HORRIBLE. NO ANYTHING LIKE SHOWN ON LINE. ACTUALITY DISAPPOINTED WITH TRIP ADVIOR AND BOOKING AS WELL. I TRUSTED YOU POLLS AND AFTER TALKING TO MANY OTHERS WHO HAVE THE SAME OPTIONS YOU NEED NOT TO SUPPORT THIS PROPERTY. WE TRAVELED MY HOURS TO GET THERE AND WHAT A SHAM

Cons: IM FIGHTING FOR MY MONEY BACK. WE ARRIVED AND IT WAD JUST HORRIBLE. NO ANYTHING LIKE SHOWN ON LINE. ACTUALITY DISAPPOINTED WITH TRIP ADVIOR AND BOOKING AS WELL. I TRUSTED YOU POLLS AND AFTER TALKING TO MANY OTHERS WHO HAVE THE SAME OPTIONS YOU NEED NOT TO SUPPORT THIS PROPERTY. WE TRAVELED MY HOURS TO GET THERE AND WHAT A SHAM

Pros: Beach view exceptional

Cons: I fell within 30 minutes of arriving. I walked down about dusk to view the ocean. Sat at a table. When I went back upstairs for dinner I realized that I left my purse. It was very dark by then. I didn’t see the wooden piece that was protruding out from underneath the table. The lights there did not come on and it was extremely black out. My shin hit and I fell onto the platform writhing in pain. The staff apparently heard me and rushed down to help. I am still suffering from pain in my shin, ribs and chin. The staff offered to call a local doctor. I was in severe pain and just wanted to rest, ice compress and elevate it in the room. Upon request my room was relocated as it was difficult to walk. I managed to salvage the rest of the weekend. The staff was extremely helpful and accommodating.

Pros: We absolutely loved this property! The beach was stunning and so clean and private! The food was very good!! Wish we could have stayed another night!

Pros: The environment of the Tango Mar is beautiful. The beach is amazing and the animals around the hotel are incredible. The hotel was comfortable and the staff was nice and helpful. We saw a lot of perrot and iguana during playing tennis and on the way to the near waterfall 5 monkey played on the trees. We really liked the atmosphere of the hotel and the provided activities. We tried horseback riding and the ATV during our stay, recommend it for everyone!

Cons: My girlfriend is vegetarian and the variety of the menu for vegetarians could be better.

Pros: Location and staff

Cons: Dated.

Pros: The hotel and the beach were stunning! A real hidden gem. Loved the charm 70’s vibe of the facility, the dinner terrace, the sound of the ocean and food was pretty decent (even if it’s quite pricey: $25-$30 for a main course). A great place for 2-3 nights.

Cons: Internet was a nightmare. The connection was so awful i couldn’t even book another flight or the next hotel.. it was bad for streaming movies , for calls and it was impossible to work. Be aware of it. You need a car. there is literally nothing you can go or do if you don’t have a car. The lunch restaurant close at 3.30pm and dinner restaurant opens at 6.30pm. so in those 3 hours, from 3.30pm to 6.30pm you cannot get a drink, snacks, nothing.. and the staff will not help you. they would simply say: it’s close. The staff can very helpful and nice, guys like Javier and Alan were amazing, but some of the other aren’t. The breakfast lady was quite mean, didn’t speak english and was serving spanish speaking customers first or was just avoiding me. I spoke to her a bit of basic spanish and she was clearly pretending to do not understand me. Ordered a beer at the lunch restaurant and they told me they were out of that brand, but also told me they had that specific beer at the dinner restaurant (4min by walking and close at that time) and nobody thought to go there and get some. The rooms may have some ants and bugs..Nothing to be worries about...I told the receptionist and he tried to sell me a $15 bugs repellent. Than after i insisted he gave me one for free. But had to insist. Very little things you won’t expect in a 4 stars hotel facility. It would really take a little effort to make this place perfect..but at the moment this what you have to deal with.

Pros: Our deluxe oceanfront room was excellent (room 504-506) for the price. You are literally right on the beach. The room was very clean and comfortable, with a nice bed and linens. Three very nice pools to sit and read by. There is a beautiful private beach with rough currents for young children but fine to swim in, if you are a good swimmer. Very nice staff and generally good service. We found the food to be very good international style. You had the typical costa-rican rice and beans + chicken combo plate but also some great filet mignon, fish dishes etc. The owners are belgian and the "fine cuisine" style food at a northern european style. We enjoyed the food. World-class Caesar salad for dinner! Generally very good, attentive and fast enough service (except one lunch where about 8 large groups sat down at the same time - understandable) I rented mountain bikes for a half day which are fun. They aren't top of the line bikes but were well maintained and good enough for a couple hours ride to Tambor (the nearest little beach town). There is a good breakfast buffet and if you ask for other things (fried eggs, avocado etc) they will bring you what you need. The breakfast is basically the same thing every day. The eggs were good and fresh, with a nice fruit plate. Excellent bloody mary at the bar! Good selections of wines at a reasonnable price. Make sure to check out the look out- amazing views.

Cons: I knew this from the reviews, so not a huge deal, but the wifi is very basic and unreliable. If you need to be doing any serious time-sensitive work, the wifi will be a huge issue. I was mostly on vacation and had to do a little work here or there, so I was ok. But I would have to give up on the internet to send emails a few hours later, skip a zoom video call etc. You actually can stream netflix but only late at night. At 5pm everyone goes back to their rooms and the wifi is unusable. Sitting by a crowded pool you basically get dial-up speeds on your phones... In an emergency I was getting decent 3g speeds roaming with my US Verizon Iphone, and generally could make calls using the cell signal. The hotel does have relatively quick service by the pool but you will need to get up and walk to the bar for service (they then bring whatever you need to chairs). Basically never asked if I need anything. Not a big deal but worth noting. Overall the staff is very friendly and nice and do a great job with good English.

Pros: I loved the room because the balcony was right on the sea.

Cons: Some of the things in the room need to be upgraded.

Pros: Customer service was responsive and accommodating when present. Complimentary breakfast was cooked fresh and so delicious! Location was so peaceful and close to downtown and local attractions!

Cons: The location of the lodge was at the top of a very steep hill. The drive is super short but to walk from the end of the hanging bridge into town could be difficult to some.

Pros: Clean! I mean perfectly clean and very kind and professional customer attitude!

Cons: Breakfast could have more selections

Pros: Awesome location and very friendly staff

Pros: The view from balcony and how clean and comfortable.

Cons: The pool is small but it’s still nice. WiFi is slow however it seems to be a local issue and not property specific. Most WiFi on the Nicoya Peninsula is slow.

Pros: Nice and quiet, non-intrusive staff, very nice breakfast, healthy

Cons: An in-room coffee maker would be super awesome.

Pros: Beautiful Ocean view from our room balcony , walking to the waterfall along with my kids and wife was perfect way to finish our trip at Montezuma.

Cons: The bumpy little road about 25 meters before the hotel.

Pros: Fantastic view. Trail to the waterfalls with possibilities to go further where you get all the scenery and fun for you.

Pros: Amazing place in a jungle hill with amazing staff with big hearts and GREAT coffee and breakfast. Highly recommended!

Pros: The location was amazing, couple minute walk to the beach but felt very secluded. The breakfast was big and delicious. The staff was very friendly and super helpful.

Cons: The wifi would not work very well. I woke up the first night with little bites all over my legs.

Pros: The atmosphere was exceptional, wonderful people, good breakfast, coffee in the morning, authentic location in the woods where you can watch monkeys and hummingbirds. I will definitely come back and can recommend everybody visiting Montezuma to stay at Luz en el cielo!

Pros: Just everything was great!!! Super friendly stuff, great location, super clean, nice breakfast, the dorms were made with love, everything was there what you needed...even Charger for the phone...I highly recommend that place

Cons: Absolutely nothing

Pros: Johnny was amazingly kind and helpful! The place is very cute and cozy with other cool travelers. It's quiet and far enough away that the monkey's howl in the mornings and pass through during the day. They also serve a great breakfast. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area again!

Cons: The hike up hill from the bus but its good excercise.

Pros: Wonderful breakfasts

Cons: Street noise late and early.

Pros: Friendly vibes, easy to meet people and accepting of all ages !

Pros: Perfect! The town, the hostel and the People, just stole my heart.

Pros: Great garden and breakfast

Cons: Our room was humid

Pros: Close to town, beautiful property. We loved our morning coffee out on the patio.

Cons: You could hear the ATV’s & motorcycles going by early mornings.

Pros: The location and the grounds are lovely. The staff was helpful.

Cons: The rooms smelled and because there were no screens on the windows we had lots of bugs and mosquitos.

Pros: Had a night watchman who was friendly. The staff exemplified gracious hospitality and knew us by name. Views were incredible and we heard the pounding surf. Beautifully manicured lawn with private spaces for meditation and relaxation. Breakfast menu had good choices and the juices were fresh. Will come again!

Pros: Beautiful view, good breakfast, nice staff, lava pools nice.

Cons: Our room was not very secure #7 could easily push the doors open when locked if tried .

Pros: Absolutely the most amazing ocean view and the most hospitable staff! Karina and her restaurant staff made us feel so welcome and right at home!!! Our little 13 lb dog was welcome with open arms.

Cons: Can’t think of anything.

Pros: The view around this place is amazing. The lady who owns it is very welcoming and makes you feel at home.

Pros: Nice and relaxing environment close to Tambor

Pros: The staff were extremely hospitable. Staff members introduced themselves to me by name. I upgraded on arrival to premium level and felt I had a personal assistant along the way to help and assist me with future travel and with getting my Covid test fir exist. They helped celebrate my birthday. I cannot say enough about Glenda and Gonzalo. Very wonderful people . If you need transportation from airport to hotel, speak with g to be hotel. You’ll get the best deal

Cons: If you want to chill,take part in minimum activities like kayaking. this is a good place to stay. It’s kid friendly if your into that . If not, pick your season well

Pros: The views of the beach, it's closeness and how surrounded by nature you are is wonderful. Plus, beds which were very comfortable. Room fridge is stocked with complimentary drinks (but we weren't informed about this until leaving when we said we hadn't touched anything in the fridge thinking they'd be expensive!)

Cons: I have been to this hotel before and I have to say I was quite disappointed on this occasion. The location is wonderful and their facilities are in the middle of great scenery. Nonetheless, one of the most important aspects for me in an all-inclusive is their food/drinks. I could barely find something to eat that was not burnt, poorly cooked or simply inedible; e.g: calamari rings completely charred, pancakes hard as biscuits, soft drinks with no fizziness and the list goes on. Even the complimentary a la carte meal we were given at their "fancier"/premium restaurant was very poor. On top of that, we had issues with the bathroom's shower pressure and the toilet which barely managed to flush without us intervening directly with the inner pump. In regards to the shower, the pressure would dip so low that it was barely a drip of water coming from it and even though there is a bathtub, its not an option as filling it takes hours and their plug doesn't work. Lastly, the alcoholic beverages were clearly watered down making the cocktails awful tasting and their wine selection all tasted sour and unbearable [at the buffet, bars and premium restaurants].

Pros: the staff was friendly specially the bartenders at the lobby, they were joyfully while working even with those uncomfortable mask on

Cons: Food variety was really poor, we are vegetarians and the choices were very few comparing to Occidental Tamarindo by Barcelo.

Pros: Property well maintained

Cons: Too crowded. Long lines for food.

Pros: The Facilities are big and the landscaping is awesome.

Cons: The room gave us allergies.

Pros: the staff was extremely friendly and helpful

Pros: Very good location, easy to reach, and quiet in those crucial hours for rest. I stayed in a large room, well equiped for its category. Very positive interaction with staff and with the owner, with whom I had engaging conversations and who brought to me some local delicious food, simply as a gift. I'd return to stay here anytime.

Pros: The area outside our room was very nice and we had our own fridge and private bathroom. I appreciated the kitchen and it was very close to all the shops and restaurants and the beach.

Cons: There were signs everywhere about various strict rules eg only using the kitchen to prepare snacks not meals, and not drying your wet swimwear outside your room, which I thought were too strict and ruined the vibe. We had to ask for toilet roll when we arrived and again 2 days later. We asked for hand soap but we were never given any as they’d run out which during COVID times seems crazy to me. We also never had our room cleaned in any way including no change that the bin despite this overflowing.

Pros: Location was really good, clean room, great hot shower

Cons: Everything costa extra - room cleaning, storing the luggage after the checkout etc Kitchen is closed at night and in theory it’s fully equipped but there are signs everywhere saying gag you should only use it to create the snacks so it is not inviting to cook there The air flow in the room is not great so it gets really hot without the ac (but you can always pay extra to get it) My bathroom was a bit smelly when I checked it so I’m not convinced it was properly cleaned In general nice stay especially since it was one of the cheapest places in montezuma however in different places around the country you get better value for money

Pros: Location, staff, room, Elias is super friendly!!

Pros: Really great, friendly, helpful staff. Comfortable rooms, quirky/rústico with really comfy common areas for outdoor relaxing. AC works well and totally worth it! Not noisy, safe, tranquilo vibe throughout. Coffee and maker in room is a really nice treat!!

Cons: The communal kitchen could be more user-friendly... easier access to plates, small rugs around cuz the floor gets wet... couldn't figure out the microwave even tho' I can read Spanish... A few clean towels/rags for wiping up... Also open at 6am for early risers...

Pros: Really, really good location. Next to the beach, restaurants and supermarket. Also a private parking is included which is great. We can pay by credit card and I appreciated it. The lady that welcomed me was super nice and speak english! The kitchen has a lot of tools to cook! No hot water in our room, it didn't bother us since it was really hot all day but should be a problem if you're a family with kids.

Cons: It was really loud in the morning, I don't know if it was the staff or people that lived there but around 6am every morning they were talking just in front of our door. The window's mosquito nets in our room were useless since they have big holes, it should be replaced.

Pros: Great location , extra large room was clean and comfortable.

Pros: The location is awesome! Steps from the beach! Staff is super helpful and nice

Pros: Clean sheets and towels. Bed surprisingly comfortable. Location was nice, right next to beach.

Cons: Open to main guest area and kitchen. Very loud. Room 21 had horrible sewage smell all night long, made me physically ill and could not sleep, it was too late to change rooms and I was only there for 1 nt. I should have been fully refunded but was only offered 10% discount. Only one wall plug worked, so either fan or charging phone.

Pros: Beautiful location, great view from the window and a quaint place

Cons: The business next door had a concert and disco and the music was unbearable loud until about 3am🥵

Pros: The lady who manages the property is absolutely charming -- very helpful and always pleasant and professional. The building is rustic. It's right on the shore so waves come right up to the building. It's a gorgeous sound day and night. We had room 9 with terrific views and which has no A/C. We didn't need A/C as I prefer the windows open so I can hear the sound of the surf. This property isn't luxurious in the usual sense, but it has luxury for the soul. As soon as I got out of the shuttle in front of the building, I knew I'd like the hotel, and it is one I'll remember from my visit to CR. There is a nice kitchen which us for use by the guests. If you want to cook, it's fully equipped.

Pros: Breakfast was great. Staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful

Cons: Would be nice to have some hangers, otherthan that everything was fine.

Pros: Very local experience, I suppose...

Cons: Where to start... - filthy sink and moldy shower head - random hairs all over the room's floor - broken electric shower, cold water only - unfriendly owner, awkward check-in made us feel unwelcome - HDR pictures on booking.com are very misleading, place looks nothing like this - the restaurant below is supposed to close at 10pm which would be fine, but apparently this is the place where locals hang out to get drunk. This meant people bawling in front of our window until the middle of the night which thanks to paper thin walls made sleeping impossible, even with earplugs in - surprisingly much traffic on the neighbouring road, even at night time. Additionally mufflers do not seem to be a thing in this neck of the woods. - ordered food "sin ajo" which was confirmed by the waiter, but food came out with literal heaps of garlic on it which is a bit problematic for an allergic. I really don't understand how this place rates North of a 7, I recommend avoiding it at all cost.

Pros: Kind staff, food smelled good, greeted with a blended drink, same day booking & on site parking.

Cons: Room did not match booking.com description & bed was a foam pad on slatted wood.

Pros: Honestly the only good part was that there were a few nice employees especially Lester.

Cons: The place was extremely loud. The main road was connected to parking lot and very loud trucks were passing at all times. The bar downstairs stayed open late with very loud music and metal doors slamming then they reopened at first light making it impossible to sleep. The manager/ owner/ chef was rude and refused to return any money once we decided that we didn't want to stay. He insisted that we spent the difference in his restaurant which was subpar at best. He didn't have many ingredients for the food and drinks that we were made to spend a good deal of money on. At one point we ordered desert and were asked to prepare it myself because I am a chef. They didn't have most of the ingredients for cocktails that were listed on their drink menus. Would not reccomend.

Pros: We like this hotel much and had pleasure to stay. Staff is amazing, ready to help with anything we need. We felt there like second home. And super good food in the restaurant, not expensive and delicious!

Pros: Staff

Cons: No hot water for the shower ... Food is ordinary

Pros: Being near Tambor beach.

Cons: The room door was hard to open and close the key was to turned too many times before it opens the door. The shower water was too cold , the heater was not working. The manager fixed it but still hard to use.

Pros: Staff very friendly, nice breakfast

Cons: It’s a bit noisy because it’s located next to the main road

Pros: Good breakfast. Good connection with public bus (next to bus stop). Rent a car just accross the street. To the beach 10min walk. Clean

Cons: Cold shower. Staff speak no english.

Cons: This was by far the worst hotel ice ever stayed at. I've stayed in hostels that were a third of the price and 10X more acceptable. It was filthy and absolutely uninhabitable. We stayed long enough to book another room and got the hell out!
