Villas Macondo, hotel in Tamarindo

Villas Macondo is just 150 metres from Tamarindo Beach, and offers an outdoor pool, tropical gardens and free Wi-Fi. Each air-conditioned room has a terrace with a hammock and garden views.

It's a beautiful place, the kitchen isn't crowded, I was able to cook and relax as well. It's a quiet place, close to everything. The person who helped us was very friendly and kind. We arrived a bit earlier then check in time and she had already prepared our room, made me very happy. Both Susan and Samantha are awesome. Susan asked me a day before what time I'd arrive, after our check out, she let us leave our things in the office, weal we waited for our bus to arrive. There is a mini fridge in the room, where we were able to store a lot of things in it. They clean the room everyday. It's located in the middle of the town, walking distance from a bac bank, grocery stores, restaurants, bars. We were able to see monkeys. It's a beautiful place. It's an expensive town, i eat out a lot but I also cooked. I didn't mind eating out but if you're on a budget, its best to cook. It's an average of 25 000 colones for two per meal including possibly 2 drinks, depending on what you get. Roughly 20$ to 30$ a meal, excluding drinks. Just a little tip I wanted to add.

very tranquil at the end of tow next to the estuary cocodrilo. beautiful property. my terrace had an amazing hidden garden with a path through the palms to the beach. the restaurant next door lit up at night looked extraordinary. very photogenic and great gazpacho! the howler monkeys walked right over my head through the palms in the morning. What a great spot. if it had a pool it's easily twice the price. highly recommended if you like seeing lizards and tranquility. great tunes from the restaurant at night too, not loud, very chill...

    Favela Chic is in a great location within walking distance ( or free bicycle ride) to Tamarindo. Close to great restaurants, the beach and shops. Very friendly people with most of them able to speak English or direct me to someone who could. Would like to return soon.

    Very nice small town feel. Really enjoyed the restaurants.

    Very nice small town feel. Really enjoyed the restaurants. It was very hot in early April when we visited. End of the dry season so but lush at all. Everything is within walking distance. Go check out the zoo there. If you can get a car go visit Lola's which is a 40 min drive away. No one there on that beach. Massages on the beach are inexpensive and worth it. Renting beach loungers are cheap with unbrella. Some restaurants on the beach have them too. Lots of restaurants along the beach.

    Great small surf town, with everything you need within short walking distance. Variety of cuisine with Happy Hour offers (take them as food is pricey here). We mostly ate at "Soda" restaurant (any spot with Soda means it's local food). Fire throwers perform nightly around center of the beach. Tip them, it is amazing what they can do. River Boat tour showed us mangrove vegetation, crocodiles and iguanas. Blue Dolphin sunset sailing was super fun, check the wind report before booking. Horseback riding available at the beach, I'd recommend morning time when tide is low. Sand is pack then and beach is wide for them to walk on. Sun is sneaky here and you can burn easily, so be careful.

    I love love love Tamarindo! I've actually been looking non-stop at properties to see if there is a place I'd like to live. It's unlikely that I will move there permanently, but I'd love to have a little place to be able to visit once in awhile!

    We were disappoined in Tamarindo ~ it felt like a tourist...

    We were disappoined in Tamarindo ~ it felt like a tourist trap with all the sidewalk tour booths. We went snorkeling with one of the booths by the beach which was definitely NOT worth it as there was absoluately nothing to see. We discovered Native Way & booked a tour to the Estuary which was excellent compared to another guest who booked from the booths by the beaches. I also heard many of them are scams as they want a deposit which will be the last you'll hear ofthem. We would recommend Native Way if you want to book any tours. We were disappointed becaue Tarmarindo was more expensive than we expected. There were only a few "shops" that were not filled with "souvenirs" that were probably not even made there. Go to the Night Market on Thursday or Farmer's Market on Saturday for unique gifts made by local artisans. Food at Restaurants were good but not the prices. We recommend Tabu & Pico Bistro. Pangas is over rated... food was so so but atmosopshere was out of this world.

    Favela Chic unit 3 was super clean. the whole Unit was smelling so nice when we arrived, nice touch. It's comfortable, with a large bedroom. I loved the coffee machines too, great addition. I love the AC everywhere plus the ceiling fans. I love the patio. Wifi is strong, I worked from there and attended a few video calls that went smoothly. The pool is great. Jesse the host is amazing and super responsive. A super nice person too. We stayed at a few different spots in Costa Rica, this was our favorite because it checked all the boxes.

    This was an amazing hotel with fantastic staff. Virginia, Sylvia and Maria pampered us and it was so relaxing. The room was very comfortable and perfect. When we were stressed about one of our flights being disrupted, Virginia and Sylvia helped us to arrange transport to the airport and figure out our new itinerary. We also have to mention Charlie the dog, such a friendly guy! We will not forget their kindness and we won’t hesitate to stay next time we are in Costa Rica. This hotel epitomized Pura Vida 😊

    It was a very cozy little place. Very interesting and creative space. Once under the last owner, artists had come to live in Costa Rica for some time. They could life here for free for a while, if the painted the place in return. The manager of the hotel now is a very sweet man, who does everything himself. He is the manager, receptionist, cleaner, gardener, etc. Charming. Great location not too far from the beach and stores

    The facility was beautiful and the best location in Tamarindo. We had the ocean front room that was steps from the beach. We went to all the pools and absolutely loved the breakfast! We enjoyed all of the restaurants on property and our kids were loved having everything in walking distance from our room. We felt very safe and parked our rental car with no issues in secured parking at the hotel.

    Staying at Les Voiles Blanches was probably the highlight of our two week trip in Costa Rica. Thibault was exceptionally helpful, going above and beyond to meet our needs. The place is a little outside Tamarindo, but if you have a car you'll be fine. It's clean, comfortable, and quiet. What more could you ask for? We loved it so much we extended our stay.
