A beautiful oasis close to all the action of Tam. Staff were excellent and accommodating. Rooms were extra clean, patio with hammock was heaven. Pool area was quiet but allowed for chats with other guests. Would definitely recommend and will stay again.

Basic hotel in Tamarindo. Came here during the peak season, so the prices were high. Pool was nice, but rooms were super basic and felt overpriced.

Our stay was fine except for the dismal hotel.
2-night trip

8/10

This was a cute hotel. The amenities and pool area are nice and it is a great location. Walking distance to the beach where we were able to rent chairs and surf. Walking distance to many restaurants and the nightlife which all fell safe. Parking is also easy. However, the actual room of the hotel is not anything special. It is very plain and straightforward but was good for us because we were really only in the room for sleep for our 3 day stay.

Staff in the restaurant were not available and unfriendly most of the time, so that was strange. Need a place to fill up water bottles to reduce single use plastic. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Surprisingly quiet for how close we were to the main streets

Always love it here as we tend to visit every few months but this time was outstanding as we had the privilege of staying in the beautiful Villa! Wow! Absolutely stunning! We will be back!

8/10

The room was clean but small. The bathroom was extremely small, when you sat on the toilet your knees were touching the wall. Sower also very tight and small. Ants walking everywhere in the room and bathroom. The noise at night was unbearable, loud music blasting until 1:30 am.
3-night trip

10/10

Staying at Hotel Pasatiempo was an intellectual romance—every detail curated thoughtfully enough to feel like an inside joke between you and the universe. The design is subtly brilliant, inviting a quiet admiration of tasteful choices that speak volumes without saying a word. The staff moves with understated genius, anticipating needs with a knowing smile as if reading your mind was just their baseline. And the comfort? Pure elegance disguised as simplicity—beds crafted so intelligently comfortable they practically whisper philosophy as you drift off. I left reluctantly, feeling oddly smarter, inspired, and already scheming my return.

An excellent facility, well kept and somehow, even though it's in the heart of Tamarindo seems like an oasis from the busy streets, shops and restaurants. Very friendly and accomodating staff.
