We stayed with our kids ages 6 and 9. We were the only ones there with kids, but it was great and the kids loved the fireball and jenga. Safe. Well equipped kitchen. Pool to cool off in that the kids enjoyed. Bunk beds were super comfortable. Quiet time is at 11pm but kitchen closed at 10 so it was quiet enough at 10pm. Bathroom situation wasn’t ideal, but it’s a hostel. Close to a small grocery store, super close to the beach, affordable. The highlight was the surfing lessons. Julien was great! but Helena who gave both our kids multiple lessons was such a gem, we will always have great memories of our stay!

Staff were great and the hostel was a very nice stay. Plumbing in our room needed some work so it’s not so stinky but it was manageable and fine in the end. All worked well.

The best place for staying at Tamarindo! it´s very close to the town centre; you can rent a surfboard at the Hostel and go walking to the beach which takes 5 minutes. The place is very nice, swimmingpool, Chillout Zone,...and the most important thing is the good energy that you can feel there thanks to the Staff.

My wife and I had a lovely week at Pure Vida while learning to surf. Having the pool was a nice touch for a hostel. Staff kept the place clean, but there is your typical “tropical” buds/lizards etc around all the time. Very short walk to town and beach.
