    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

    We liked everything but would suggest some different menu selections day to day. A few specials each day, for instance. The food overall was very good.

    It was immaculate and absolutely gorgeous landscaping and facilities. It really felt like paradise and the staff were so friendly and attentive. We didn’t wander very far because we were so happy to enjoy their grounds. The Costa Rican wood crafted throughout the rooms and to make the furniture was beautiful. The conscious effort to provide a haven for all the creatures of the area added delight to our stay. Monkeys, birds, iguana, property dogs and cats were added entertainment. Very relaxing and peaceful.

    More variety at breakfast would be appreciated for longer stays. Also there was nowhere to sit and enjoy a drink or a coffee with friends after 10pm.

    The location, atmosphere and staff were perfect. The general relaxed friendly vibe was consistent from the moment we entered the hotel to the minute we left. You feel like the employees are well trained, well treated and well selected. They have genui9ne pride and love for their jobs.

    Our family enjoyed our stay at Capitan Suizo! It met and exceeded out expectations. We had upstairs rooms with balconies- that were beautifully designed and a pleasure to come back to. The service was so friendly and every one made our stay a pleasure. The grounds, the pool and the location on the beach were perfect. I would have disliked staying in Tamarindo town as it is quite touresty and loud but we were far enough away to feel apart from it. The restaurant served a great menu and we enjoyed eating there most nights.

    Fantastic location, right on the beach at south end of Tamarindo - easy to walk into town, yet much quieter. Beautiful, spacious and very clean bungalow accommodation. Very friendly staff and excellent, reasonably-priced food in the restaurant.

    The Capitán Suizo Beachfront Boutique Hotel was a nice place, but it had a couple issues that made it slightly less than perfect. The pool was always full of pollen and leaves(it is surrounded by beautiful trees and they did clean it regularly but it seemed they never could catch up. Also, there were too many kids running around and screaming,.

    I recently stayed at the Capitán Suizo Beachfront Boutique Hotel in Tamarindo. The hotel staff were outstanding throughout my stay, from the front desk to the restaurant and other areas of the property. The on-site restaurant served delicious food, and there were always chairs available by the pool and the beach. The hotel is located on the quieter end of Tamarindo beach, which was a nice change of pace.

    Parts of the hotel were quite tired. The furniture in the communal areas was worn and could have done with being updated. Usually such details wouldn’t be the end of the world, but when you’re paying very expensive rates for a room you do expect a certain level of luxury. The food at the restaurant at dinner was average at best and therefore we felt it was overpriced. We also struggled to get help from the front desk with the coffee machine when we couldn’t get it to work, which again was a little frustrating given the price paid for the room.

    Great rooms! Very clean, comfortable and spacious. The location in relation to Tamarindo town was great too - quiet and out of the way, whilst still being close to the amenities of the town. The grounds were also absolutely beautiful and clearly really well maintained. The service was as also wonderful - with all the staff being extremely friendly and hospitable.

    Nothing. We would return in a heartbeat. Service in restaurant was a bit slow at dinner first night but it was busy and I think our waiter was still learning. Not really a complaint … we were very happy with everything.

    The staff at Capitan Suizo was just wonderful in every respect! Property is beautiful and beautifully maintained. Beach is private and quiet. Away from the craziness of Tamarindo, but close enough to visit it easily. Lots of fun activities and concierge service is excellent. We especially appreciated the ladies at the breakfast/lunch service … SO friendly and helpful. Thanks all, especially Natalia!
