We had a great stay! We found it quiet and peaceful, and a short walk to the beach and main strip. We loved the daily breakfasts and the pool was a great amenity. All staff we encountered were friendly and helpful! The hotel helped us arrange transport to and from the airport, and we booked an excursion as well, which was awesome! Our room was very clean!

I stayed at Hotel Arco Iris for 7 days with my daughter. The daily breakfast, which is included with your stay was spectacular. The waiter, was friendly, courteous, and very helpful. The hotel is very central. The beach was not a far walk (5-8 minutes). We loved our experience.

Absolutely one of the best places I have stayed at! From the amazing staff to the little oasis of a hotel you will definitely not regret staying here! The reviews about the cleanliness is spot on it truly is that clean. The breakfast was phenomenal which was included in our stay! Don’t worry about the walk to the beach it truly isn’t bad at all and I found it to be a great way to see the town everyday! The staff at the hotel were not just nice but super helpful and give you local spots to you to check out. So sad to be leaving all of the staff they truly made the trip better than I could have imagined!

I traveled solo and my room was very comfortable and simple. If you’re high maintenance this isn’t the place for you. This is for people who don’t need or do too much. I enjoyed the breakfast that was included, Juan went above and beyond to ensure I had transportation to and from the airport, the pool was nice and was a chill vibe. Water pressure was great and everything is close by and walking distance.

We had a very pleasant week staying at Hotel Arco Iris. The staff were welcoming and attentive. Breakfast options were all excellent and delicious. Our bungalow was very comfortably appointed. Lots of storage, shower products, hairdryer, fridge and safe. We enjoyed our front porch hammock and seating area daily. The pool was great and had plenty of lounging space.This lush, peaceful property, just minutes walk from the beach and the center of town, was the perfect place for us.

From the moment we booked, the customer service was great. Both Henry and Juan were a pleasure to deal with. They helped arrange transportation from La Fortuna to the hotel, as well as to the airport in Liberia for a decent price. Staff were friendly and they had a good selection for breakfast. The location is great, it’s quiet but in the heart of downtown just minutes to the beach. All in all I would recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Tamarindo at a fair price.
