Lovely stay! Pamela and Naomi, the two receptionists, are so sweet and always greet you with a smile— they are awesome. It is safe, clean and right on the beach. The back gate opens directly onto the beach. It’s amazing! There is a security guard at night so you can always feel safe. Great for single travellers and couples. Really loved my stay here everyone is really nice and I can’t wait to go back. Breakfast is included in your stay - it’s a delicious buffet across the street offered through their sister hotel (Diria Tamarindo). The beach is beautiful and lots of fun shops and a great beach to learn to surf.

Good location, friendly start, not the cleanest. The noise was unbearable specially when they started doing construction at midnight while talking between each other very loud. We stayed in room 1 and one of the beds was so hard that felt like camping. On the bright side, breakfast at Diria Hotel and the Diria pool was very good.

We were pleased with the accomodation, beach access and friendly staff. For some reason they did not clean the room over the 3 days we stayed. Otherwise its a good spot.

La Perla is a little rough around the edges, but more than makes up for it with the staff. The women at the front desk are very kind and understanding, and Kevin at the beach bar is a superstar.

This is a great beach front hotel for those travelers who don’t want to pay the full price for a beach resort (I.e. the Dirria next door!). But since both Perla and Dirria have the same owner, Perla guests get to eat at the breakfast buffet next door. The buffet has everything (hot items, omelette, waffles, fruit station, pastries etc. highly recommend this hotel!

I needed a room just for one night before I left Costa Rica the next morning and the lady at the front desk was super helpful and very friendly. They have security there until midnight I’m pretty sure which is nice . It’s also right infront of the beach so the view is amazing , they have a pool as well that I didn’t get to check out because I had to leave and free breakfast at another really nice hotel less than a block down. If I came back to tamarindo I would definitely consider staying here again. The AC wasn’t that best but I’m sure they would fix that if you asked them too but since I was just there for the night I didn’t bother .

I am so happy I found this gem! It’s right next to the super touristy Diria hotel, but offers the same ocean views. My room (#6 btw) was right in front of the ocean. The staff is super great, both Naomi and Pamela-thank you. The complementary breakfast is incredible since it’s from the Diria next door (e.g., typical Costarican food and foreign, like waffles and omelets). So if you’re looking for a quiet, laid-back, incredible ocean view stay right at the center of Tamarindo, look no further.
