Sehr coole Location, etwas ausserhalb Tamarindo (mit dem Auto 45 Minuten). Sehr zuvorkommender Gastgeber! Die Pipe’s sind eher klein - kein Platz für Gepäck und für Nicht-Paare zu eng😬Playa Grande ist top und zu Fuss mit Fähre ist Tamarindo auch schnell erreichbar. Wer Erholung und Ruhe sucht wird hier definitiv fündig.

+ Unique and comfortable rooms. Amazing location just a few minutes from the beach. The beach is extremely quiet as is the location. Felipe was extremely responsive and helpful. Delicious breakfast included. The hammocks were great for relaxing!

- Would be nice to have private bathroom option but it’s with sharing to have the unique sleep space!

+ Die Zimmer sind sehr außergewöhnlich das Hotel hat einen gemütlichen Garten mit vielen Liegemöglichkeiten und die Küche ist gut ausgestattet dass man selber etwas kochen kann alles ist sehr sauber und die Lage ist fantastisch direkt an einem großen leeren Sandstrand

- Wer empfindlich bzgl. Klimaanlage ist, sollte diese Zimmer nicht buchen. Es wird sehr warm und die Klimaanlage ist direkt über den Köpfen. Das ist aber auch das einzige.

Really nice place with lovely staff. Only thing to be aware of is the difficultcy of travelling into Tamarindo city. The water taxis are nice but only run until 5 PM. Otherwise it's a 40 minute drive into the city

+ I liked how responsive they were when I realized I needed a late check in. I had questions beforehand as well that were answered promptly.

- Once I got through the gate, the main entrance was not labeled so I was a bit confused as to where to go. Since it was late at night I couldn’t ask anyone. But I figured it out. This was such a cool place to stay. I was only there for one night and didn’t have much time to chill in the hammocks or on the beach. I would definitely stay here again. The bed and pillows were so comfortable, and the entire vibe was perfect!

- Pipes are a little cramped for 2 with luggage. Pack light!

+ L emplacement est au top avec la plage à 100m, à l écart de Tamarindo et le propriétaire sympa et réactif

- Dans le même temps, il n y a pas grand chose à Playa grande hormis surfer, surfer et surfer. Tamarindo bien qu à 15 minutes à pied et bateau (jusqu’à 17h) n est accessible pour ses restaurants qu avec 45 min de voiture. C est le pire rapport qualité prix de Costa Rica pour moi…sur neuf pipes, seulement deux occupés, j ai failli déprimer après un jour, il faut que le prix soit divisé par deux pour que cela vaille la peine de dormir dans 3m2…et le petit déjeuner pas terrible du tout

+ Endroit tranquille, propre, air climatisé fonctionnel dans chaque habitation, directement à qq pas de la plage, la chance d'avoir de magnifique coucher de soleil,

- Rien, mais sachez que l'hôtel est situé là dernière sur la rue, la plus éloignée de la principale. Un moyen de transport personnel est nécessaire selon moi.

+ Muy buena la idea! Fui con mi pareja y todo super tranquilo, el host es súper pura vida y tiene una hija divina. El lugar tiene entrada entrada a la playa.

- La ubicación es bastante complicada de llegar sin un carro alto
