Nov 18, 2019Tamarindo was a nice resort town beach. The water was nice and there are a lot of things to do. I was staying at Avellanas and was struck by how different they were. Stay at Tamarindo if you want to be in town and be able to go to a lot of restaurants and see lots of people. Stay in Avellanas or other nearby beaches if you want solitude
5/5 - Excellent
