Wyndham Tamarindo features free WiFi throughout the property. We really enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is up on a hill 5 min drive from the main shopping area of Tamarindo. The pool area and view of the ocean is amazing. The room was nice, clean, comfortable and had a balcony with an incredible view of the pool and ocean. Breakfast was good. The best part was the bonus of the Langosta Beach Club included in the stay. We loved the pool, beachfront lounge chairs, shade and facilities here and enjoyed the food and happy hour cocktail’s. The shuttle provided by the Wyndham hotel made it easy to go from the hotel to town and beach club and back. We walked a few times for exercise and felt safe the whole time.
