Pros: There is only one resort like this in the area. Cons: It exists.
We stayed at the Playa Tambor for three long days at the request of our father who lives in Costa Rica. He wanted the experience of staying at a nice hotel with his family which was in Costa Rica to celebrate his birthday. It was all any of us could ...
Pros: The pool, the weather, most of the tours. Cons: The service, disorganized staff, phone calls (see main article).
Our advice is to avoid Barcelo Playa Tambor for the purposes of a honeymoon vacation. First, the pros: very warm, nice pool (including swim up bar), and excellent adventure tours (for extra money). However, the cons far outweighed these things ...
Pros: Great beach, amazing setting, clean hotel, friendly staff, lots of things to do Cons: terrible food, ferry transfer 6-8hrs
We just got back from the Barcelo Tambor. The hotel it's self is great but there were a few things that we didn't like. The food was terrible at the buffett. We ate at the a la carte twice because it was much better than the buffett (not much) but the ...
Pros: The people staffing the onsite travel agency who helped us get out of Tambor. Cons: Location, look of hotel, room decor, service, food, entertainment, beach, amenities.
Everything about the company's description of this "resort" is a joke. There is nothing lush, lavish, exotic, luxurious or majestic about this property (as quoted on the internet). Even the beach is awful since it is made of gravel. It's on the ...
Pros: Courteous staff, prompt service, comfortable accommodations, and a variety of tours and excursions. Cons: Traveling on a 12 seat charter plane to get there (25 minute commute).
Fantasy Island is here! The adventure starts the moment you arrive at San Jose Airport. How do you get from San Jose to Tambor? You have the option of taking a bus tour (over a 5 hour journey), ferry (if you arrive early enough in the morning) or a ...
nice but a usual all-inclusive resort by entrem ,Aug 19 '07
Pros: clean, nice beach and nice swimming pool Cons: too big, too boring, not much variety in meals
it depends on what you're looking for. I was looking for a nice hotel to stay my last days in Costa Rica and relax, and I didn't like at all.
It's in a wonderful area but it would have been much better to build a little hotel rather than this. If you are in Costa Rica I guess you will want to be in the nature, which is not the case...
The rooms are OK, the meals are just OK, everyday the same. Well cooked but not variety. The entertainment is awful!!! what a show!
