This is my third time staying at luna llena. It is close to the heart of tamarindo, and quietly tucked away. The staff are kind and very helpful, the rooms and pool are lovely, and the breakfast is delicious. Thank you for the hospitality.
Clean room, gorgeous pool, and an amazing daily breakfast—especially the lattes. The location is perfect: close to town and the beach, so getting around was easy. We saw at least 10 monkeys on the property every morning, which was such a fun surprise. Super cute place overall. Would absolutely come back with a group of friends and stay here again.
Safe clean resort with private rooms a nice pool, gym, games area, bicycle to use.
Breakfast served around the pool each morning with fresh fruit, cereals, coffee, eggs and toast all included in the price.
Would stay here again.
A warm, beautiful, cozy hotel! We enjoyed the silence and nature! Very clean, good breakfast, polite staff! The disadvantage was that there was a sewer smell in the room! Otherwise, everything is fine!
Rooms were great! AC worked amazingly. Margie at the front desk was so helpful with luggage storage and making us feel comfortable. The pool was great and there is an outdoor shower. Breakfast was unreal, many options with the traditional breakfast and coffee was great too! Would recommend to anyone looking for a cheeper stay in Tamarindo with easy access to the beach and downtown.
Hotel in a great area and very close to the beach.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Don’t be afraid to approach them and ask for what you need. My only area for improvement would be the water pressure in the shower could be better but still accomplished the task.
This hotel was perfect, just far enough off the main area to be quiet. A peaceful oasis in tamarindo with great amenities, delicious breakfast, and friendly staff
So close to everything- lovely staff - spent lots of time at the pool :)
