Quiet, clean property with excellent food and pool. It was a great value and just what we were looking for. The private cabin with kitchen was lovely and air conditioned. There were enough things to do nearby but not so much that it was crowded or overwhelming. The scarlet macaws are magnificent and nest on the property.

Beachfront experience in one of the best parts of Costa Rica ! It is very quiet and not busy except for about an hour every day when lots of tourists boats come to use the beach and watch the sunset before the bioluminescence tours …. But we just wade in or take a paddle board out when they leave and watch the show from our own personal beach.

This is the place to go to see the bioluminescent plankton.

This is the place to go to see the bioluminescent plankton. It was beautiful. The ferry ride was fun. We used Eddy’s tour. He was very knowledgeable about the biodiversity and the provided the best bioluminescence tour. We did have four senior couples in our group. Eddy was very thoughtful about helping some of our group into the boat

Excellent service from the staff.

Excellent service from the staff. Cabins were really nice, although dark as they are made of local wood. No plastic anywhere. Good kitchen facilities. Lacked a good light anywhere to read under, other than that, our stay was most pleasant. Henry’s pizza, and the bar next door, just 100m along the road, had excellent food and drinks as well. There is a well stocked mini super 50m further to stock up on snacks and food if you use the kitchen in the cabin. All in all, a most pleasant stay.

Playa Tambor is a sleepy little village, very quiet.

Playa Tambor is a sleepy little village, very quiet. The beach itself is very nice, especially when the tide is out, there are large sand flats. There is a small resort just off the beach called the Tambor Tropical resort which we used for drinks and lunch, very nice, all outdoor tables and bar, great staff. We spent one day at Santa Theresa beach, about 45 minute drive away. Fantastic beach, busy beach town, great if you want to watch the surfers, go for a beautiful long walk or lounge around on the beach. Not that great for actual swimming since it is quite flat, you need to walk out a long way to get to your waist. We didn't eat while there so I can't comment on restaurants except to say there where lots of them. We found the whole area beautiful and intend to visit again.

The hotel is very well looked after and clean.

The hotel is very well looked after and clean. Food was good not great but no complaints. Drinks were simple but adequate No real mojito here. Very little English speaking workers and was frustrating. I personally would not recommend the hotel unless you spoke Spanish. The hotel is shooting themselves in the foot by not attracting guests I would not recommend the hotel to family and friends for that reason and we heard that from many English guests The Disco at night had no one in it and the music blasted so load with the base boom boom boom till 3 am Wrong music for the majority of your travellers and started at 11 pm to late for many Staff was friendly and wanted to help just that language barrier When you went out to eat any place on the property the staff are oblivious if you require more coffee or water or wine. You have to flag them down

Small village, isolated - at the bottom of the peninsula. Road to get there is slow and curvy (suggest only driving during daylight, if you are driving a rental). Great restaurants and has a local grocery store. ATM about 5min away, or a full bank / ATM about 20min drive (Cobano town).

Tambor is a strange place, dominated by a big all-inclusive resort hotel and a massive golf community development, which together make the beach access very limited, unfortunate for anyone who doesn't stay or live at either place. There are not a lot of restaurants or a real centre to Tambor and we ended up going to Cobano for shopping and dining and spent a great day in Montezuma, where we would go back to in the future.

You couldn’t get a more private and beautiful beach location. Its picture post card beautiful beach is just out of this world and honestly would be difficult to beat given it’s literally a 2 km private beach…max 10 people on at any one time! Pool was really nice and swim up bar a nice touch. Our kids enjoyed the smoothies and we enjoyed the cocktails! The hotel looks like something out of a Roger Moore based James Bond movie. Tonnes of charm and unbelievable setting.

A wonderful time and relaxing atmosphere, 4 days of chilled out bliss. Enjoying glorious sunrises on the beach or if you're lucky 😉 from your bed. Magnificent, a beautiful way to end our extended trip to multiple very locations across Costa Rica, then enjoying the short hop from Tambor Airport to San Jose an experience in itself.I think the cleaning staff and management work hard to ensure a glorious and memorable stay for all guests

Coffee was good, eggs nicely cooked. Breakfast not sumptuous but met our expectations, The location of the hotel for the beach at Tambor is very good. The rooms were comfortable, a second bed was available in the entrance area. The bathrooms were clean and hot water was plentiful. Large windows provided plenty of light. The host was very helpful and directed us to a very good local restaurant.

Everything. The site is like paradise on earth. The staff, mainly Thomas was exceptionally helpful and so friendly and caring with a huge smile and a great attitude. The breakfast is generous and so refined with a great French touch. We also had the luxury to enjoy a great hot shower, which seems to nlbe quite rare in CR. A great hotel that I strongly recommend.

It was an easy walk to the beach. There were a number of good restaurants in Tambor many within walking distance.;we had a car so could drive to other beaches in the area such as Montezuma. Tambor proved to be a good base for exploring.
