Bathrooms need renovation! The rest is very good.
The garden room is big with a terrace, recently renewed. The bedding is good and the kitchenette very complete (too bad it is by the bed and not at the closed terrace which would be very convenient. But the bathrooms are terribly dated and they know it, I complained. The fawcetts are old, in awful conditions. The old wood cabinet under the sink only makes things worse, insects love dark humid wood so we had a huge cockroach come out of there. The sink and shower are fully open to also let those disgusting creatures hide and come out of there. Other than that, the location, gardens, pool and beach side are great! Breakfast is nicely served with 2 options: continental and local "tico" breakfast. The funny thing is they offer either juice OR coffee... how much would they spend on offering both like every other hotel? You may also go back to your room and make your own coffee... isn't it the same if offered during breakfast? One more remark. With regards to security. The parking gate is fully open all day, all night. We never saw a guard at the gate, nor is there any way to close it. And the reception is far and closed at night. Some security measures should be taken, at least a code to enter the gate from the open parking lot.

Incredible experience
We stayed here for 5 nights and I can’t say enough good things about the hotel! We were in the beachside suite and it was incredible- well worth the money. Very clean, comfortable beds, beautiful pool. The rest of the hotel was also great. Really good yoga classes, good food and one of the most relaxing spas I’ve ever been to. Also, all the staff were wonderful and were very friendly with our kids. Front desk staff was incredibly helpful, just going above and beyond. If you’re going to Santa Teresa I would definitely recommend staying here!

Wonderful 2nd stay at this property! Loved the bungalow near the ocean, super convenient and very large. The food onsite is great with lots of options. The hotel is conveniently located right in the middle of the St Teresa strip, you will never need your car if you are looking for options close by. Amazing stay, would definitely stay here again and again!

Best hotel in a week long hotel hopping trip
This was the second night of a seven nights hotel hopping trip in Costa Rica, February 2023. Perfect settings, clean rooms, nice friendly service, beautiful beach in front of the restaurant, above average food when compared to expensive resorts. I regret for spending one night here.

Loved this property. It was wonderful from beginning to end. We got to see the howling monkeys too! The only bad thing is the unpaved roads to get to this wonderful piece of heaven. Kayaking is 12 mins away. You must do that while staying here!

This is a beautiful property in the heart of the Tamarindo area. Right on the beach with various pool options, the beautifully landscaped resort offered the perfect hub for an activity filled Costa Rican vacation. We would love to come back. We left the Diria to spend some time in the Nicoya peninsula and we wished we had stayed at the Diria. As beautiful as the nicoya península is, Tanarindo and the Diria had more to offer. Our room was on the across the street area and really I think it’s not worth it to spend the premium to be right on the beach. We had beautiful views from our balcony. The one thing i wish our room had was a towel warmer or some way to get wet suits, towels, or other articles dry. It rained every afternoon and being wet and wearing wet stuff is part of being in the tropics. But it would just be nice to be able to get things dry. Loved the Diria.

The staff at this hotel are excellent. Any problem we had with our room was resolved within an hour and the staff were extremely responsive over Whatsapp. We stayed in the "glamping suite." Two issues we had was the hot tub continuously had problems and the hot water in the bathroom was unreliable, so I would go in to this unit with the expectation that it will not be perfect. However, the staff were always quick in fixing these issues. I would recommend this hotel.

This was a very unique, relaxing, experience with a very friendly staff! I would definitely recommend this spot for a destination getaway with lots of amenities and services to offer. Each guest has their own unique bungalow. It can get noisier towards the street/if you have guests but the staff was very helpful. Lastly, just be prepared for bugs and a jungle-vibe since you're in the middle of the woods but directly on the beach!! Such a cool experience overall

Hotel Trópico Latino is located in a beautiful spot, lots of beautiful vegetation and right on the beach. The staff are incredibly helpful and nice. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The food is delicious. When we were there, there was a terrific pop-up bar, the Mulberry project and we loved bartender Frederica. We had a two bedroom beachfront unit. It has a very deep, large comfortable covered porch with a large sofa, table and chairs. The room was a bit dark, and the bathroom sorely needs a remodel. Otherwise it was terrific. Well-functioning, quiet AC. The two yoga studios on site are gorgeous — facing the ocean — and the yoga I took was wonderful. I highly recommend this resort.
