Breakfast was amazing. There are only 6 rooms so it felt very private. Outdoor space is so amazing and relaxing. The owner was very nice and helpful.

Nothing at all. Perfect accomodations!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hotel Elixir. The hotel is beautiful, modern, clean and in the perfect location to walk to everything. The owner greeted us on the first day, provided a great overview of Tamarindo along with suggestions for activities and best restaurants AND prepared breakfast for the guests! We will definitely book future stays here as well. Thank you so much for such a great experience!

a little far from the beach for surfing, but that’s not a deal breaker. everything else was amazing

close to town, friendly staff, good breakfast. responsive and very safe, even for solo female

Everything was amazing! The only suggestion I’d have is to place mats at the entrance to the rooms. We visited during rainy season and it so helped that there was a place to clean your feat as you entered the property. It would be nice to have a little mat to dry/wipe them before entering the room.

Super friendly staff, including the guard dog, Gem. And by guard dog I mean cute little Dachshund :) Loved the location, right by some amazing “hidden” restaurants. Off the main road so there’s little to no road noise. Walkable to everything. Breakfast was delicious and filling. Rooms were very clean and had all we needed.

Host is lovely, there every day to provide any advice you need and also a very pleasant breakfast. We loved the avocado toast and yoghurt bowl! Our room was cleaned every day. the property is also very secure with a security guard there every night.

the road leading to the property is unpaved - something to be aware of, but certainly not a reason not to stay!

Great little boutique hotel in beautiful Tamarindo. Comfy room, gorgeous pool, and very clean. Owner is very sweet and makes herself available most of the day.

the surrounding of the hotel is under construction so on the outside doesn’t look promising, but once you enter the gate it’s perfect!

the host is very helpful, kind and easy to find. the rooms and the hotel are in perfect condition. everything is new, clean, and beautifully designed.

Hotel Elixir was a delightful place for my boyfriend and I to stay at while visiting Tamarindo. The staff were so helpful and friendly throughout our stay including cooking us breakfast every morning and making sure we were comfortable. We also go to enjoy the short walk to the beach in addition to swimming in the pool on property. I would recommend!

Elisa is a fantastic host, providing us with all the requested info (from surf lessons shops to nice beaches for the sunset). The hotel is very well located, close to the center but keeping the peace of a less crowded street.

The hotel owner was on-site and very accommodating. I left something at the hotel by accident and did not discover it until i had reached San Jose, 4.5 hours away. She went out of her way to find a taxi driver for me to pay to meet me halfway with my possessions. I highly recommend this hotel and the owner.

The room on the ground floor was small, when you opened the sliding door (no other windows) you had to be careful no one was walking past to breakfast or to their car! Or to the pool, Also the apartment directly across. No privacy unless curtains were closed. The pool area felt un inviting, being surrounded by gravel and parking spaces

It was in a good location, just 5 minutes walk from everything. Elisa was very welcoming and helpful, even arranging transport for us from San Jose.

The bathroom could have been a bit cleaner - there was some old dust and things behind the bathroom door.

Loved that it was so small, and run by the owners. The pool was small, but a nice feature none the less. And we enjoyed the made to order breakfast quite a lot. Yogurt with granola was a great option, and avocado toast as well. It was a bit away from the center - perfect short walk that also made it more quiet than the ones directly on the beach street. Big room with balcony and mini fridge - this was very nice!

Not much not to like, maybe softer pillows, but overall great value for money.

Great location, friendly staff.

My room was directly beside the front desk and located right at the front door and I literally stepped outside of my room into the dining area. It was definitely not worth the money I paid. It was very loud with little to no sound barrier from all the external noise from staff and guests starting very early in the morning. You could hear everything in this hotel.

The location is behind the main strip so it was quiet. A little dark to walk at night.

Stayed in March 2024

The room was claustrophobic with modern minimalist furnishings. The couch, bed and pillows were hard and uncomfortable. No coffee maker in the room.

It was a nice clean hotel, in close proximity to all restaurants and town activities. The breakfast was very good and staff was nice.
