We stayed at the Capitan Suizo for a wedding, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We arrived a day earlier than the rest of our party, and were so happy to take in the beauty and the laid back atmosphere. The staff at the hotel were more than accommodating, and the property was gorgeous! The pictures depict the hotel perfectly, with... more

When looking for a hotel to have our wedding, for 10-12 people... We were looking for a smaller hotel which offered a more intimate setting, beautiful rooms, good service and which would be within a short distance of Tamarindo for shopping or nightlife. What we found at Capitan was WELL above and beyond anything we ever expected. Our first impression... more

Our stay at the Hotel Capitan Suizo was brilliant! My boyfriend and I flew in to San Jose, and drove to Tamarindo to begin our trip (~4hrs). The town was great and the hotel (set down a bumpy dirt road away from the center of town) was amazing. The town is 'developed' for this part of Costa Rica (some locals... more

Wow! I read rave reviews about this place before we arrived but none of them did it justice. The hotel sits right on the best beach in Tamarindo, is not too close to town but an easy 5 minute walk up the beach so you feel secluded but not isolated. We stayed in one of their bungalows and it was... more

I found this hotel through tripadvisor and found the previous reviews very accurate. The hotel is located on the outskirts of town and is about a 10 minute walk from the middle of town. The regular rooms are within two two-storey buildings. The rooms with AC are on the bottom floor, and the rooms without AC are on top. The... more

We fell in love with the hotel for many reasons.... The staff was warm and friendly. They really cared about talking to you, your stay and about the environment at the hotel and with Costa Rica. Their love for the animals (howler monkeys, racoons, birds, iguanas) was the best part. Walking up to hearing the monkeys in a natural environment... more

None of the reviews my husband and I read when we started planning our destination wedding prepared us for the paradise we found at Hotel Capitan Suizo! It is truly a spectacular location on the map. As you'll guess, planning a destination wedding isn't easy. But with the power of the Internet and the amazing help of Rolando, the wedding... more

My wife and I just got back a couple of days ago from Hotel Capitan Suizo. We loved everything about Tamarindo and this hotel. The pool, the grounds, the beach side location/views. The staff, the food, the drinks. Everything. We wouldn't have changed a thing. Gerald the bartender was very friendly and fun to talk to. Even all of the... more

By far the best part of our stay! Loved it! After traveling the world and staying at a number of luxury resorts (in the Maldives, Thailand, Bali etc), my fiancé and I fell in love with this hotel. It has the character, charm and quaintness of a small- medium sized hotel with the professionalism and experience of a large chain.... more
