Such a nice hostel! Staff were super friendly, everything was clean, great location and lovely pool and communal areas.

The hotel is in a great location, easy to walk to the beach and restaurants. The room was spacious and clean, the pool area was great. The breakfast was delicious, it was nice that it changed each day. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Parking is easy. We felt safe here.
Lovely hostel, great common area, helpful and friendly staff. They offer good discount for surf lesson. Everything you can wish for as a backpacker
Nice airy hostel. I stayed in the 8 bed dorm. There was plenty of space around each bunk bed, a fan and AC and a cabinet each to lock with key. Although a small hostel there was ample communal space in the front ( large sofa,table) and on the balcony plus some work out space. Kitchen was clean and well equipped with new pans etc. Staff were really welcoming and super helpful going the extra mile. Location was great. Quiet time 10pm to 7am and not a party hostel which is what I wanted. Very well run and friendly.
Good breakfast. Need more options though.. Great location. Safe sorroundings
We did not have high expectations for Tamarindo, but ended up loving our time there - mainly because of the hostel. The owner is very sweet and helpful, it is easy to meet people in the common kitchen area and the 10-minute walk into town makes for a calm atmosphere out of the party district. On a backpackers budget, Tsunami hostel is really good value for your money. We felt very welcome here.
