Beautiful location. Great beach and quiet sleeping hours

10/10 Exceptional

Pleasant place for a laid back family vacation.
The Occidental Tamarindo is one of a handful of All Inclusives in Costa Rica. Keep in mind if you’re looking for a Mexican Style “let’s get wasted resort” this is not what you’re looking for. The pace is relaxed and the food at the buffets is local style. If you want steak It’s good but it’s also Not tender like American/Canadian beef. They rate the resort 4/5 stars, really what you have are rooms that would be 3’s, they are ample size comfortable and clean but they were never finished with that 5star building quality to warrant 5 stars. The service is friendly and upbeat, but also laid back. The pool is excellent as is the beach area. Great tours depart from the area and it’s a wonderful place for a great family vacation or couples trip

Occidental Tamarindo Stay
The check in process was not the best. I arrived at 12:30pm and didn’t get a room until 430pm. Thankfully Stephanie at the front desk was able to get me a room at 430pm so I could prepare for sabbath. I got a floor on the first floor and then Stephanie was able to get me a room on a higher floor after sunset on Saturday. I was a bit surprised that as gold members I couldn’t get early check in nor could I get late checkout. The rooms weren’t very clean, in the first room, the shower pooled with water and the water didn’t drain very well. The second room it was better but the bed sheets were wrinkled and the bed wasn’t very comfortable. The food at the hotel was excellent. I really liked the food and the variety. The snacks were limitless and the beach was also nice. Amazing sunsets. The beach seemed to stretch forever close to the airport and close to activities.

Beautiful, well-maintained grounds 2 floor duplex suite was spacious with great housekeeping & minibar service Plenty of loungers by pool & beach House band & entertainment staff were talented & fun Food & beverage options were 3 star - limited & repetitive
Brenda, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall I thought it was great, the location was about a mile and a half to Tamarindo, but that’s okay I like walking. The food was good too, I wish they had more variety during dinner at the grill though. It was mostly pork chops every time I went. They had steak and chicken two days, I was there for 7 days. Overall it was a great experience and I’d definitely go back.

Everyone at Occidental was very nice and friendly, specially Adina in the cafe appreciated her service and talking to us every morning/afternoon. If you’re looking for a place to relax this is it.
Alba, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location was good - walkable to Tamarindo shops and restaurants, clean and nice staff. The only negative was the buffet food got a little boring as there we were only allowed 3 reservations for the 2 restaurants - the Japanese did not give enough food! Our favourite guy was the omelette and egg maker!
Ryan, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall great experience, the main buffet was fantastic. The rooms were kept tidy by their staff, the activites on the resort were fun and engaging. The beach was awesome because it was tucked away from the hustle of the Tamarindo beach. Location was great because youre only a 15min walk from town.

4/10 Fair

The location of this property and the pool area was great. Outside of that, it was pretty disappointing. My room was next to a very loud band every night from 8:30pm on. The food was by far the worst. Hardly any selection and the little selection there was really bad. The area was beautiful but I would definitely not recommend this hotel.
Cory, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

The place was dirry ans the staff were rude. They would not give you a bottle of water if you asked at the feont desk they would make you go all the way back to your room. Thwre were nultiple buildings and allbwere run down. The air conditioning did not work in the rooms and the dining was outside. Flies were on the food and it waa not kept hot.
Regina, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel is located on a beautiful beach. The grounds are also very nice. The staff was very friendly. But the drinks and food were subpar. Not worth the price of an all inclusive.

Jason, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

The property is beautiful, the pool and beach are great, short uber to town cost about $6, lots of shops and great food. They say they include 2 nights at an Italian or Japanese restaurant but you have to make reservations, do it soon as possible or you may not be get in. They clean your room daily, they give 1 or 2 waters for the day, and sometimes forget to leave coffee. Go to the front desk and land they will send more to your room. There is a cold water dispenser by the bar. Bring a big tumbler for ice, cold water and beer. There is no pool side service for drinks. This is a self service property. You get your food and drinks. Overall the food is good. If your a want 5 star treatment don’t stay here. The grounds are 5 star, the rooms, food and service is 3 star at best.
