The best place for staying at Tamarindo! it´s very close to the town centre; you can rent a surfboard at the Hostel and go walking to the beach which takes 5 minutes. The place is very nice, swimmingpool, Chillout Zone,...and the most important thing is the good energy that you can feel there thanks to the Staff.

My wife and I had a lovely week at Pure Vida while learning to surf. Having the pool was a nice touch for a hostel. Staff kept the place clean, but there is your typical “tropical” buds/lizards etc around all the time. Very short walk to town and beach.
