Clean property, helpful staff, great location, shops and restaurants close but still a bit removed from main noise. Cannot beat beachfront location. Breakfast and pool use at Diria are huge perks. Highly recommend!

Old hotel, basic room but great location beachside. Wish the room had more storage or hooks since no closet. Loved the access and chairs to lounge outdoors and see the ocean. Bar and outdoor shower convenient. The parking, breakfast and pool at the nearby property were great and easy to access. Would stay again.

This was my second time staying here. The ocean front rooms are way nicer and more modern than the other rooms. The owner is the same as the Diria next door, where you’ll be having your breakfast. Listen, for the price, just stay at the Diria, you’ll be spending maybe 80 bucks more and it’s got all the amenities you’ll need like pools, bars, restaurants, etc. The Perla is nice and low key, but too expensive for just offering oceanfront and free breakfast.

Very nice boutique hotel right on the beach. Quiet location located next to Tamarindo Diria. We had a drink there after dinner. Clean, very helpful staff at Perla. The pool use and breakfast at their sister resort is part of the booking. It was beautiful and the breakfast was excellent. Parking is also at the sister resort. Highly recommend Perla!
