Hotels in Playa Tambor

Aside from the hotels listed here, a few inexpensive cabinas are available near the town of Tambor, at the southern end of the beach. Most are very basic, and charge around $30 per person.

There’s also the 402-room Barceló Tambor (; tel. 2683-0303) was Costa Rica’s first all-inclusive resort. While the facilities aren’t half bad, its beach is mediocre.
