Pacific Kalokairi - Adults Only

We had a great stay at Pacific Kalokairi! We loved the unique, architectural design of the resort and our suite was the perfect size for my husband and I. We enjoyed being away from the noise of town, but close enough that it was very convenient to go back and forth from the beach, back to our room to cleanup, and back down to town for dinner. It is awesome that Virginia and her family provide free transportation, a few times a day, back and forth to town! We would definitely stay here again!

My husband found this place at my request to stay in Tamarindo. We wanted to check out the town and stay somewhere a little different. This place didn’t disappoint. If you’re looking for relaxing and some peace this is your destination. I believe one day at the pool we were the only ones there for hours. Most people head to town during the day as Virginia and her team offer a drive down everyday at 10am/3/6/9pm. They can only take 4 people at a time but we had no issues getting a ride when we wanted one. Dining: Breakfast was good. They have a small variety of offerings for everyone’s liking. They serve a bowl of fresh fruit and jam with bread at each sitting and it was the best jam I’ve ever had. Virginia’s mom makes it fresh. Lunch and dinner are also offered. We didn’t eat dinner here just because we wanted to explore the town options. Pool: Beautiful view. Hotel provides pool towels. Only 4 sets of chairs but never had a problem with getting a set. When it got too hot there is a shaded area with hanging chairs that is perfect with the right book. Room: Perfect for our needs. These rooms were well designed. Air and fan worked great as it was very hot during our stay. Shower was gorgeous and shampoo/conditioner and soap were provided. Beach: A beach club was recommended to us. I’m glad it was because it was nice and quiet. The only thing is that it’s $50pp/day. For one day we didn’t mind paying that. You have access to a pool, bar, bathrooms, lounge chairs etc. Virginia has beach towels available. But the club had them too. There wasn’t a gym but I walked down the road in the am to explore and get some exercise in. They did have a punching bag and some other things. We loved the town of Tamarindo and this accommodation completed our experience. Virginia and her family/team did a great job of making our stay nice.

Spacious room, great hot water in shower, very friendly staff, delicious, innovative meals (although big eaters may find the dinner portions small) and they remembered my food allergy throughout stay. Saw pack of 20-30 howler monkeys directly out window for several minutes which was magical and the sunset at the pool was lovely. Had several tiny ants in the room the 1st day but they were immediately sprayed by Carlos and very scarce thereafter. As others have mentioned, the driver got lost and had to call for directions so suggest having the phone number queued up for easy access when coming in. You can't go wrong with a stay here!

Pacific Kalokari is a tranquil oasis of beauty. The staff is warmth and friendly, always ready to assist. While slightly secluded from the town center, we found solace in its peaceful ambiance. The staff readily arranges transportation, and taxis arrive promptly upon request. The hotel consists of 8 hut style rooms, with beautiful views. The rooms are cleaned daily and breakfast is included.

I strongly recommend this hotel for people who like excellent location, great service, close to nature, amazing food and private place.

The views were amazing! We woke up two mornings to 15 monkeys. They were so cute. The food was 5 stars. They have an amazing chef! The staff is so helpful and really get to know you. You feel right at home. The only thing we did not like about the area was the roads. Even with the roads being bad we would defiantly stay in this resort the next time we are in the area.

I’ll first start by saying this hotel is beautiful! The rooms, the view, the staff were all very delightful. Virginia was THE best from booking, arranging airport transfer, assisted with booking excursions as well as helped with locating an officiant. My only negative is the location. Kalokiari is situated in a very under developed area, about 10 mins from Tamarindo. Most of the drivers complained/were not enthused to service the location due to the road conditions where it’s located. I’ll say this, don’t stay here during the rainy season as I’m sure the roads are much worse than when dry. Overall, if you enjoy “privacy” (really seclusion), have some $$$ to spend, and want to wake up to a beautiful sunset via balcony, book it! The hotel offers free breakfast, they have good coffee and a chef on sight that prepares both a lunch and dinner for additional price (menus change daily). The water stayed hot, it was secured and staff remained accessible! We will definitely be back to see Kalokiari again! Pura Vida my friends!

Oh, where to start??! Pacific Kalokairi provides hospitality at the very highest level. We had such a fabulous experience. The staff is wonderfully friendly. It was like having a private concierge and private chef. They took care of everything we needed, from excursions to taxis to towels and shuttles, immediately and without hesitation. The rooms are gorgeous. The breakfasts and dinners were beyond delicious. The entire experience was warm, welcoming and friendly. Not at all pretentious or precious. We felt so comfortable with everyone there. It was unlike any vacation we’d ever taken before. On our last morning we had about 7-8 howler monkeys in the trees outside our room - what a treat to see them up close, like being in a game preserve. Also, we must mention we adored being greeted by Charley, the gentle giant black lab. There’s so much love at Pacific Kalokairi- we highly recommend vacationing in Costa Rica and staying there.

This beautiful property is located in the hills above Tamarindo with an amazing view of the ocean. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The guest accommodations are modern, spacious and private. We loved listening to the birds and the Howler monkeys and just enjoying the awesome view from our room. Relaxing poolside and cooling off in the infinity pool was a treat. Peaceful, quiet, elegant...Pacific Kalokairi is a sanctuary in this area. Highly recommended!
