    Great staff, excellent breakfast each day! Pool is very refreshing after a hot day at the beach. The hotel is out of the main Tamarindo action which makes it peaceful and quiet at night. It's still just a short walk to be anywhere though. Lovely!

    Nada.

    Location. It's close to everything. Walking distance to bunch of restaurants, shops and playa tamrindo. The host was good and always cheerful.

    The GPS takes you through an alleyway which was difficult even for my 4x4. The other side of the alleyway was fine. They have 3 parking spots inside the facility but are super tight. They do have open parking infront of the hotel but that's pretty steep and you got to be careful. The bed was squeaky. Pillows were not comfortable. The room was small for the money we paid and compared to other places

    Location was quiet and close to the Main Street

    We booked this place based on the positive reviews, but were very disappointed—mainly due to poor cleanliness, especially in the room. When we checked in, we found around 60 flying ants in the shower. It was hard to believe housekeeping hadn’t cleaned this before our arrival. We had to spray and clean it ourselves. The next day, we told the host, who said she was already aware of the issue, and promised to notify housekeeping. But after cleaning, the dead ants were still left all over the shower and bathroom, completely untouched. This was extremely unpleasant and disrespectful. Other issues included: • A strong, bad smell in the room • Stained, unclean pillows • No replacement of basic toiletries(soap, shampoo etc), which we had to request ourselves at night Although the host was friendly, she didn’t follow through, and the lack of cleanliness ruined our stay. For the high price we paid, this felt more like a hostel than a hotel. We do not recommend staying here.

    Property response:

    Hello, we are very sorry to hear you had a bad experience and did not enjoy your stay with us. However, small clarifications. The room was deeply cleaned before your arrival as usual. Sorry for the ants, but we are in Costa Rica surrounded by nature and unfortunately sometimes ants manage to find their way into the room. Last, the room was cleaned the day after and the dead ants were removed, as well as we fumigated the bathroom to avoid further 'intrusions'. Best regards

    Great location & hospitality. Easy walk to shops & beach but peacefully off the Main Street. Clean, well appointed, comfortable, delicious breakfast, nice pool. Perfect for my solo trip, felt super safe & welcomed. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

    The location was excellent. 10 minutes walk to the beach, on a quiet street, near a grocery story/pharmacy and close to a lot of restaurants.

    We could have used an extra mirror in the main room since the bathroom is on the smaller side.

    We spent 7 nights in Hotel Elixir. Unlike most travelers to Tamarindo, we had quite a long stay. Hotel Elixir was beyond perfect. The staff is friendly and is willing to help you get the best out of your trip. We didn't have a car, so we had to do everything by Uber or foot. The access to Playa Tamarindo, Playa Langosta and Playa Grande is excellent. You can get there by foot. You can easily get too to pharmacies, supermarkets and all of the bars and restaurants in the center of Tamarindo. To the Playas more far away you can get an Uber, they can easily access the hotel. You have different breakfast options, they are fresh and cooked by the staff every morning. Wi-Fi works without interruptions. All the spaces are very clean and comfortable. We would definitely come back whenever we return to Tamarindo :) Thanks for all!

    Spacious, clean and the host was very helpful and accommodating.

    Would have preferred tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

    Location close to the action and beaches but far quieter. Very good, small hotel with small rooms but comfortable bed and adequate bathroom. Pool is small but nice area to lounge about. Staff are great. Don't expect luxury but simply a nice place to call home when visiting Tamarindo
