About Wyndham Tamarindo
Wyndham Tamarindo is a 3.5-star hotel on a hillside above Tamarindo Bay, about a 15 to 20 minute walk from the beach and town. All 104 rooms have ocean views and a small balcony.
What sets it apart is the wide view of the bay and its sunsets from the pool and rooms, at a more moderate price than most beachfront hotels. It suits couples, friends and families on a budget who don’t mind a short shuttle ride to the sand.
