Hotels in TamarindoA mid-range hillside hotel overlooking Tamarindo, not a beachfront resort

Come for the ocean views and pool, not doorstep beach access.
Wyndham Tamarindo is a mid-range hillside hotel whose strongest assets are its ocean-view balconies and infinity pool. It's a strong pick if you'd rather watch the sunset above town than stay amid the beach bustle. Recent Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise the helpful staff, while Booking.com guests also highlight the views and beach-club access. Breakfast, parking and a shuttle into town add practical value.
The trade-off is the location: this isn't beachfront, and the steep uphill return makes walking less appealing. Plan around the shuttle, especially for evenings out. Guest feedback also flags some maintenance and towel shortcomings, although recent cleanliness reports are mostly positive. Langosta Beach Club access helps bridge the distance to the sand, but cabanas carry a minimum spend. We'd skip it if effortless beach access or consistently polished rooms matter most.
