L' Estanco El Jardin Escondido
Restaurant
👍👍 Wow! This is a must if you are here. Not only is it absolutely beautiful sitting under a gorgeous tree but the food, drinks, and service was wonderful. We arrived without a reservation (calling on WhatsApp is best to reach them we found out after) but the owner was happy to accommodate us. We sat on...

Antichi Sapori Tamarindo
Southern Italian restaurant
👍👍 We only spent two nights in Tamarindo and I’m so glad we chose this place as the venue for one of our dinners. Honestly, my boyfriend is not a fan of Italian restaurants, so luckily the reviews helped us eat here in the end. Still, the pepperoni pizza was one of the best we’ve ever eaten (even thoug...

Green Papaya Taco Bar
Taco restaurant
👍👍 Right off the busy street with good parking, Green Papaya was amazing. The tacos filled my hunger and was light at the same time. A nice drink menu with a very cool atmosphere. We had Claudia as a server and she was exceptional in every way, very nice. If I can give more than five stars I would.

Diving Nomads
Diving center
👍👍 Upon visiting a friend who lives here in town, she recommended this dive company. I am already certified, so I did not need a refresher, and when we got on the boat, we headed out on the water. We did two dives and spent nearly 80 minutes underwater. We saw sharks, fish, starfish, snakes, and even m...

NOI Bistro
Restaurant
👍👍 We went here twice in Sept 2022. We loved the coffee and the acai bowl. When we were there we got to know the owner (he's French Canadian) who literally sold the bistro to the current owner the days we were there.

Playa Avellanas
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Without question, our favorite beach in Guanacaste. Quiet and postcard perfect. The roads are challenging to get there - 4x4 is highly recommended. Lola's is the spot for food and cocktails on the beach, and don't miss out on a walk through the mangrove forest nearby.

Tamarindo Beach Costa Rica
Beach
👍👍 A beautiful beach that’s well maintained and very clean. The sand is soft and the water is warm. The water is also shallow so you can go out pretty far without being that deep. Also, be sure to stay for the sunset. You’ll be glad you did!

Waffle Monkey
Coffee shop
👍👍 My husband had the espresso, the smoothie and the bacon. He absolutely loved the espresso and the smoothie. The bacon was average, but best pork he had during our vacation in Tamarindo.
I had the fruit of the day (wild blueberries and banana) waffle with chocolate sauce and it was sooooo delicious....

Little Lucha
Taco restaurant
👍👍 Little Lucha is my favorite taco joint in Tamarindo. We have dined in several times on our visits to Tamarindo. They have absolutely the most delicious tacos you will find in town. This is a great spot for groups, couples or by yourself. They have daily specials, in which the best special is Taco Tu...
