As I was traveling in Costa Rica, I arrived at the facility at 11 o’clock and was told that I need to pay them additional $30 per room if I want to check in early the unit was empty. Bathrooms were dirty old. Outside the unit was full of tree leaves, and was not maintained where the dining area is was full of dirt, napkins, and needed cleaning trash was all over the complex around the pool and around the units. The amount that they are charging is definitely not worth at least keep your property clean.

Don’t leave valuable in the room outside the safe, one wallet and passport disappeared from the room. An entire drama to deal with. Pool was nice, food so so.

This property is quiet and close to beaches and the downtown party core of Tamarindo. You need a car to stay here but it's a more affordable option than the downtown core. The staff are kind and speak English. There is a night security guard. Breakfast is included in the restaurant and has a decent selection. If you want water the restaurant has a cooler to fill up your water bottle with. The rooms are clean and the water pressure is decent. The rooms do not have fridges so you can't keep leftovers or drinks cold. Overall affordable, safe and the best bang for your buck. Also - WiFi is strong.

ve staff were very nice and kind and friendly food was very nice and fresh nice pool area hotel was quiet other guests were friendly and nice -ve -Beware you need a car to get around as it is in the middle of the motorway so it is not walkable to anything. this is not clear in the hotel description and it is so expensive to hire a taxi - if you are British and have pounds in cash change it at the airport. no one in Tamarindo takes pounds - everything is so expensive due to majority US tourists - we were stuck in the hotel for 2 days due to lack of transport no reliable buses - room is very vary basic. too basic for me. only a bed and a table and a lamp. no kettle or tea and coffee incase you want a drink at night or early in the morning like I do. no fridge incase you buy some drinks to keep them cool or to keep baby milk cool. they have a hot and cold water urn in the main building in the kitchen when I asked repeatedly for a kettle I was tole to use that. I dont think this is practical a 1 am in the morning. . the first night there was a dressing gown which they took and never brought it back despite us asking repeatedly. the swimming pool had too many dead flies and petals in it. whilst they did try to clean the pool i think it needed proper sanitation. to avoid insects eggs . No wardrobe to store clothes just a cut out section in the bathroom so if someone is using the bathroom you have to wait poor TV channels

Very enjoyable stay. The owner and staff were very friendly and helpful. The only drawback was that the hotel was a bit far from the beaches and transportation was a challenge for us until we rented a car. This was our first time in Costa Rica and we would definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed our 2 nights at Seis Playas. The room was quiet and having air conditioning was a life saver with the hot days. There is an excellent ATV tour provider right down the street that was very convenient for us. We also enjoyed the pool and chaise lounges. The restaurant staff was super nice and accommodating. My only complaint was a few large ants that showed up in our room during the visit. They did not bother us, but it made us not want to leave anything on the floor just in case.

Being that it was pretty cheap we wasn’t expecting too much but it exceeded our expectations. The hotel is very nice and we loved how convenient it is with a restaurant inside right next to the pool. The staff is really friendly , they would serve you directly at pool your food or drinks , the service was amazing. The hotel is beautiful inside the pool is very big and I loved the beautiful flowers and plants surrounding it. It’s a perfect place to stay at if you want too save money, be safe and expect too be out most of the day. We had tours plan out so taking a dip in the pool after a long day was rewarding. I must mention they have the best breakfast, especially el desayuno tipico ( typical breakfast ) included in the price was just good. Highly recommend!

I was placed in a room at the very back of the property where the air-conditioning was minimal at best, and then proceeded to fail in the middle of the night. The fan made a very loud noise from 3 AM until I woke with minimal air conditioning. The choice was no air-conditioning or no noise.

Very nice property - a good value. Big pool in centre of property is gorgeous. Breakfast which was included was excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms are spacious and nicely decorated and even have a combination safe. Things that need improvement: cleanliness. We found quite a bit of hair and it was clear that underneath the bed was not cleaned for some time. Also a lack of a mini-fridge hurt. Finally the WIFI was very weak - slow speeds and constant signal loss were annoying. If these things are adressed this place would be 5 star and would be an ultimate value.

Nice hotel but in the middle of nowhere. We had issues with the toilet and a window that wouldn't close. They were in our room all day and refused to move us. I would have given it a higher rating if we didn't have that situation. The breakfast was really good and the pool was really nice.

Great hotel, with a pool and friendly staff. Towels and bedding were lovely and soft, and the breakfast in the morning was nice, while limited in options. The property is a little out the way, but if you have a car is fine to drive into Tamarindo and local shops and restaurants. Without a car the location is a little in the middle of nowhere. All in all, good value hotel and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. Thanks

It was very very bad experience. First positive. Guys on on front desk they are nice and work with what they got. Now reality - room was full full of mosquitos we drive to store buy a spray it was not 10 but 50-60 crazy literally we spray our self all night. Room fast dirty restrooms showers. Pretty nasty one towel it got blood on it from someone else well that’s not worse. It’s bar next door it was music playing till 3 am whole room Was shaking I used ear plugs and still can hear it. Restaurant - what a joke miss match chairs food was no good . Pool dirty. Honestly save yourself and get something different. Property was nice maybe 30 years ago. Now it’s just nasty My gf keep saying don’t look don’t touch anything. I’m glad we don’t catch anything. Properly top worse places we stay in Costa Rica total joke

The whole crew is absolutely amazing, professional and friendly, Diego who checked us in was very helpful and always taking care of our needs. The included breakfast is delicious!! The food at the restaurant is delicious and affordable, you don’t have to worry about looking for a place to eat lunch/dinner. The only thing is that they advertised that they have a shuttle service, but they don’t, so we recommend you to rent a car upon your arrival. The pool is beautiful, the property is nice and clean, but consider that is a tropical paradise and there are bugs here and there we had a big spider in the room and a few ants. Make sure to ask for the housekeeper service every day, otherwise they won’t clean your room. The hotel is close to a lot of tourists areas and beaches (driving distances) we recommend to rent a car, Uber service takes .30 minutes to get to you and some days (weekends) rates are higher. We definitely recommend this hotel.

We needed a last minute place to stay the week of Christmas and ended up staying at Seis Playas. This is a cute little spot and perfect for someone looking for an affordable yet nice place to stay. Our stay was clean and quiet. The included breakfast has lots of options. The staff was sooooo kind and eager to please. There's a little sports bar right next door that we'd go to for dinner each night and that was super convenient.

Great service and conveniently located! Unfortunately lots of bugs were in the room and I was constantly getting bit by ants and was afraid to have my bags on the floor as bugs would get in. Also very low water pressure. Overall a good stay still as we mostly needed a room to wash up and sleep in after exploring and activities.

Thank you for staying at Seis Playas Hotel. Our hotel is surrounded by many flowers and plants, we try by all means to keep the ants away a little without harming the rest of the flora and fauna, we are sorry that you have had any inconvenience with it.

It’s a nice, decent and affordable place to stay. Close to all of the surrounding beach areas. A very tasty typical costarrican breakfast is included! Really nice pool with a wet bar. And for the price you can’t ask for anything else. Definitely coming back and I’ll recommend it to family and friends.
