10/10 Exceptional

It’s a tired hotel and definitely understaffed but the food options were always great and the location is unmatched. It is located in the quieter Playa Langosta but still close enough to Tamarindo for some outings.

Beautiful location. Great beach and quiet sleeping hours
matt, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Great for a chill time. The basic rooms are just that…so if you are just looking for a clean comfortable place to sleep because you want to lay out by the pool/beach and not think about food, this is a perfect place. If you are super bougie, you may be disappointed if you book their standard room. The spa and staff there are fabulous and do a great job.
Katherine, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The only thing missing is a swim-up bar. Try the Piccadillo at breakfast. Leo on the beach can sign you up for FANTASTIC tours. Adina, who is part of the wait staff, is the absolute best. Always friendly and goes above and beyond.

Poor bar service in the pool area. They could try a lot harder to serve guests easier. Edwin could have been a lot nicer to the traveling guests. He was a real peach to the locals but very rude to anyone else.
Joseph William, 7-night trip

Love our stay here.
Dixiana, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

The property was clean and well-maintained, which we appreciated. Staff were friendly and courteous, but there’s room for improvement in overall service. The buffet experience fell short, with inconsistent water service and table settings. Towel supply also varied during our stay, with hand towels or face cloths occasionally missing. Unfortunately, the à la carte dining didn’t offer much of an upgrade, with food quality not far off from the standard buffet fare.
Robyn Lynn, 10-night trip

8/10 Very good

A great family atmosphere at the resort. The location of the resort is right on Langosta beach with gorgeous sunsets and crashing waves. The food is average. The drinks are average and served in paper cups so bring an insulated cup with you. The resort is very clean and the staff are very polite and hard working. The grounds are safe and the gardens are lovely. I would gladly stay at this resort again.
Richard, 7-night trip

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
Maury, 10-night trip

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

There was no coffee in the room. Had to call for towel's everyday. Limited places to eat. Liquor was very cheap brands and served in cheap paper cups. Way under staffed. not enough seating by the pool. would would not recommend this resort.
Kathleen Agatha, 11-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff were great but there weren’t enough of them. Long lines at the bars (only 2 bars)-one day time bar, one evening bar. The buffet was understaffed. Often had to go and get our own water. Never had face towels or clothes in room!
Tammy Ann, 11-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.
Jose, 7-night trip

It is right on the ocean, spectacular views.
