Wonderful for a couple. The grounds are immaculate, two pools, yet very private because the 10 units are spread out over several acres. You're in the middle of nature with no other houses or buildings within eyesight or audible. The units all look out into the jungle. On a couple of days, we had a family of howler monkeys lazing for hours in the big mountain almond tree in front of our patio.

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.

From

We stayed at Hotel Tajalin for three nights and had a wonderful experience. The hotel is ideally situated in a peaceful area, yet close to key attractions like the beach, town center, and waterfalls. The staff were exceptional—friendly and welcoming. They provided comprehensive information about local attractions and arranged tours with local agencies, including Isla Tortuga, Bioluminescence, and Snorkeling. Cindy, one of the staff members, offers Spanish and English classes. I took a Spanish class with her, which was incredibly helpful in refreshing my language skills. The rooms and shared kitchen were spotless. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Tajalin to anyone visiting Montezuma.

The experience on the property was truly exceptional. Dorian, the owner, is not only incredibly knowledgeable about the area but also deeply passionate about sharing it. His insight into the local nature and culture added a unique depth to our stay—almost like having a personal guide. The Chorotega wouldn’t have stood out nearly as much without his warm and welcoming presence.

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.

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...

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.

That hotel is amazing! It combines luxury and nature in a small village! We had a great stay here. Almost everything was perfect to relaxe on our last days of our Costa Rica vacation. The rooms, the pool area, the bar/restaurant (simple but cheap), the location, cleaning service: all was perfect.

Lovely complex of individual chalets in beautiful setting built with two nice swimming pools - set 2 or 3 kilometres back from the sea - north of Tambor beach. Host Thomas is exceptional - friendly and offers good local knowledge. WiFi good and breakfast too. Would highly 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.
