In the Shade Hotel is very clean with an efficient working air conditioning, nice water pressure in the shower and enough space in the room. Front desk person was friendly and informative. On either side of the hotel you have a choice of restaurants to eat. And you have a bank, stores and restaurants within walking distance to the hotel.

All of the staff especially Maggie made my stay very comfortable. As a young traveler Maggie gave advice, safety tips, and fun activities. Whenever there was a transportation concern Maggie was right on top of it with solutions. The free coffee in the morning was a cherry on top. And the safety in a city was astonishing. I will for sure be staying here again and for anyone thinking of staying in Tamarindo pick this hotel!

In The Shade is amazing!! I have been to Costa Rica 8 times now and have tried all different places, but this is at the top. The staff is all so friendly and they serve a great cup of coffee in the morning. What really makes this a good place to stay in Tamarindo is that it's very close to the main roads you will want to spend your time at, but the Hotel is very private. The Hotel is cozy, clean and quiet - what more could you ask for? Overall a 10/10 experience, hopefully I will be back!

The best part about this place was how quiet it was. Lovely to sit by the pool and not hear anyone else. Location was tucked back off of a main intersection so it was very close to anything you might want, and walking to the beach was quick as well. The only thing I would wish for is at least one or two other vegan options for breakfast, but the açai bowl was delicious.
