This boutique property features freshly renovated, custom-designed studios and apartments that are fully air-conditioned and equipped with luxury amenities, including a flat-screen TV, pillow-top mattresses, and private bathrooms with complimentary toiletries. A total of only 15 units are located on two levels and may offer balconies, patios, or views of the pool or garden, depending on the selection. Guests can enjoy complete autonomy with self-check-in using PIN codes and a lockbox for room keys, fully equipped kitchenettes, and free street-side parking. The property is conveniently located just steps away from restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and the popular Tamarindo Beach. The location was excellent. Close enough for an easy stroll to shops, restaurants, bakeries, cafes and the beach yet far away enough to be quiet and relaxing. The property is exceptional. Clean, modern, spacious, high quality fittings and decor, the bed was very comfortable and having a kitchenette allowed for preparing your own meals. Marie and her staff were outstanding.

The rustic-style rooms at Capitán Suizo Beach Front Boutique Hotel are air conditioned and have a seating area, safety deposit box and balconies. They are decorated with wooden furniture and light-coloured beddings. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at ease. The service was warm and attentive, the location just steps from the beach was unbeatable, and the food – simply delicious every single day! Surfing with the kids was such a fun experience – safe, exciting, and unforgettable. And for the little animal lovers: the resort is full of wildlife! We saw monkeys, raccoons, adorable squirrels, and even iguanas. If you’re looking for relaxation, comfort, adventure, and a welcoming atmosphere for the whole family, this is the place to be. We wholeheartedly recommend it and are already looking forward to our next stay. A true hidden gem for anyone in need of a seaside escape with a special touch of nature

This adults-only boutique hotel offers stylish accommodations with ocean views and tropical gardens. Jardin del Eden also features a private beach garden located in the middle of Tamarindo beach.

Each room provides free WiFi, noise reduced air conditioning, flat-screen TV, digital safe, mini fridge and coffee maker. I liked everything about this place: the staff (always nice and kind), location is even better than the pictures it felt like we were not in the hectic tamarindo but in a natural oasis. The food was always 10/10. We truly enjoyed it!⭐️⭐️⭐️
