Tamarindo Diria Resort

Tamarindo

Good to Know

Tamarindo Diria Resort brings together Playa Tamarindo beach access, multiple pools and dining in a lively town setting. Rooms are on the oceanfront or across the street, with family and adults-only choices that create different stays. Compare section and room category before booking; balconies, terraces and private water features vary. Choose Diria for a vacation that can move easily between resort hours, surfing and coastal outings.


Tamarindo’s beach life, with a resort to return to

Golden sand and the energy of town come together at Tamarindo Diria Resort. The property fronts Playa Tamarindo, putting a beach outing, a swim and a meal within the rhythm of a resort stay. Surfing gives the shoreline its lively character, while pools and places to relax invite you to enjoy an afternoon without planning another excursion.

Choose the section that suits your stay

Location within the resort matters. Accommodation is available on the oceanfront and across the street in family or couples sections. An ocean-oriented room, a family pool setting and an adults-only Tropicana room create different experiences, so consider both the outlook and the section when booking.

Rooms and suites bring tropical colors and modern comforts into the stay, with balconies or terraces in some categories. The sunset ocean-view option emphasizes the coast; family pool-view rooms keep the pool setting close. Selected Tropicana categories add a Jacuzzi or plunge pool. Use the room details to choose the experience you want rather than expecting the same outdoor space or features throughout the property.

Between the pools and Playa Tamarindo

Multiple swimming pools let you vary the day, including an oceanfront pool with Pacific views. Take time for a swim, settle beside the water or head onto the beach. Direct access to Playa Tamarindo makes the shoreline a natural part of the stay, with beach chairs and umbrellas adding convenience to time by the sand.

Surf lessons offer a way to join the activity on this well-known surfing beach, while a walk or a leisurely pause lets you enjoy it at your own pace. Back at the resort, dining spans casual beachside meals and more formal settings, with seafood, Costa Rican dishes and international flavors. Fresh, locally sourced ingredients connect the meals with the region, while bars and lounges invite you to extend the evening with a tropical cocktail or an artisanal spirit.

Leave room for town and coast

Tamarindo’s setting makes it easy to combine hotel time with a livelier vacation. Wildlife tours, jungle zip-lining and national-park outings can add adventure beyond the resort. Massages and facials at the spa provide a quieter counterpoint when you return. Diria’s appeal is the combination: a beach-town stay with enough variety on site to enjoy a day close to your accommodation, provided you choose the right section for your trip.

Choosing Tamarindo Diria Resort

  • Beach and town together: direct Playa Tamarindo access places surfing, sand and coastal scenery within a resort stay in a lively beach town.
  • Choose the right section: accommodation is on the oceanfront or across the street in family or couples sections. A beachfront resort address does not mean every room is on the beach side.
  • Family and adults-only choices: family pool-view rooms and adults-only Tropicana options create different atmospheres. Select the section that suits your party and preferred pace.
  • Pool variety: multiple pools include an oceanfront pool with Pacific views, giving you a place to swim even on a day spent close to the resort.
  • Comfort for beach hours: beach chairs and umbrellas make shore time convenient, while surf lessons offer a way to join Tamarindo’s surfing activity.
  • Dining and evenings on site: casual beachside meals, more formal dining, bars and lounges bring seafood, Costa Rican dishes and international flavors into the stay.
  • Room features vary: balconies, terraces, Jacuzzi and plunge-pool features depend on category. Choose deliberately if private outdoor space or a water feature is important.
  • A change of pace beyond the pool: spa treatments, wildlife tours, zip-lining and national-park outings provide relaxing and adventurous possibilities without requiring the same kind of day throughout the trip.

Andrew C.

Coming from Florida on the gulf of Mexico..it was a typical beach town. But then, we're spoiled.

John D.

Excellent place but you have to stay on the beach side with a view of the beach and sunset. We changed 3 times as it seemed they kept trying to put us in their cheapest, least desirable rooms. You may want to talk to them about giving guest you send them better rooms.

Constance H.

The room was very nice despite the shower either burning you or not having hot water at all. We enjoyed the adults only pool and the location was convenient. The staff wasn't as friendly as other locations but that may be because of the touristy feel of the area. The beach at the hotel was very nice but a little rocky so we had to be careful

The extra bed was not super comfortable for the kids. A room with bunk beds would have been nice

Guest review

Beautiful hotel in an amazing location. Met every expectation.

Dana B.

Not as nice as the Springs, but did not cost as much either. Was certainly adequate. Plus it was on the beach and had free breakfast. Location was perfect.

Brenda M.

Rooms and bathroom are very small especially for a family of 4.

Jaime R.

Beach had more rocks, and many vendors bothering us. The breakfast buffet was ok not so great. Drinks during happy hours was wonderful because of great prices.

Chris K.

Very nice, friendly, and helpful people. Great atmosphere, food, location. Overall absolutely nothing negative to say. Would highly recommend.

Rob R.

Having experienced a room facing the ocean before, I would have requested a similar room.

Carolyn M.

The resort was beautiful and kept immaculately clean. We both came down with traveler's tummy about halfway through our stay in Taramindo so we didn't really get to experience the hotel to the fullest extent.

Dharmita L.

Of all the hotels we stayed at the staff at this hotel was probably the least friendly, mainly because this hotel is extremely crowded with very long lines to check in. The food was terrible and not of the quality of the other hotels.

Ashley S.

Very nice hotel and loved the location!

Gary H.

We really liked the Diria and Tamarrindo, will go there again. Staff was very friendly and helped us all they could including retrieving my jacket I left on the shuttle bus.

Albert P.

problems with keys; late access to the room; maid service inconsistent; problem with bill when leaving (wrong charges)

Kate B.

Great breakfast and sunsets. Did not care for all the sellers at the beach

John B.

up grade to beachside worthwhile

Shannon C.

This was right on the beach and their restaurant was as well but this was a very hotel and that left the staff distracted. The pool which looks rather large in the photos online was actually quite small and right next to the front desk. This felt a bit awkward so we did not use the pool at this hotel.

Yolande R.

Hotel was fine and close to restaurants and boutiques. Chamber maids took an eternity to do up my room even though I was gone early in the morning. Would not go to Taramrindo again as it was too commercial , much like many American resorts and more expensive.

Pat S.

Great place. Would highly recommend it.

Connie A.

This was a beautiful resort! The staff was great, breakfast provided was excellent with lots of variety. Our rooms had a beautiful view of the ocean. I would highly recommend this resort.

Yvonne L.

This is a very nice hotel located right on the beach. Busier and at times noisier than the other two hotels.

Debbie J.

great Resort

Guest review

The water aerobic class was canceled without notice.

Guest review

Very nice resort! Central location close to lots of fun things! The service was amazing, as soon as we switched activities they had already printed out our vouchers and slipped them under our door! Amazing!
