Beautifully put together!
Cala Luna is a beautifully put together property. Compact and comprehensive. The staff is wonderful. Our dinners were terrific. I had a good massage. Our room 301 sometimes had an odor of waste, I suspect we were near their disposal. Other rooms are probably fine. For a tropical local the lack fruit at breakfast was noticeable to customers.

Great stay at a beautiful Boutique Hotel
Me, my wife and son had a great time at Cala Luna. Its a unique setup indeed, with paths snaking through the jungle en-route to your room or villa. We arrived at night and it was rather impressive. The staff were friendly, professional and very attentive. The chefs/cooks are top notch. We had a secluded deluxe room which was really nice and private(until other guests arrived in the adjoining room). It was very clean with a soaker tub you can skate board in. The room isn't that large but was fine for us. Only small issue was the fact that there was a room attached and we could hear through the walls easily if you have loud neighbors. This was only for the last night before we left in the morning so I think they schedule the guests in a manner to help avoid this which was appreciated. The cleaning staff was very efficient. The beach was a short fun walk down a path at the rear near our room. We saw howler monkeys overhead, an eagle/hawk?(lol), and some other wildlife withing the hotel grounds. you might hear some action on your roof at night :). probably why you cant open the room windows. The hotel is in an awesome location, the perfect distance from the action to get peaceful nights and close enough to get the center of it all in minutes. Next time I think we will stay in one of the 2 bedroom villas they have with a private pool, private parking and separate entrance. I highly recommend Cala Luna. Pua Vida!

Cala Luna is a wonderful choice if looking to stay in the Tamarindo area! It’s not right in the heart, so you are away from the hustle and bustle of the city but also generally close. We walked most times, about a 10-15 minute walk or a 5 minute bike right (free bikes for use). The staff was absolutely wonderful. I had a 90 minute spa treatment from Priscilla and I can’t recommend her enough, she was amazing. We did a fishing charter and the chef cooked up our fresh mahi mahi. We are thinking about exploring getting married at this place! Such a peaceful vibe, very clean rooms and attentive staff. Can’t recommend enough!

Great spot.
This hotel is in a great spot in the city walking distance to the main tourist trap area and close to a great Beach for sunset drinks provided by the hotel. All in a great experience, clean well appointed, checks all the boxes.

My wife and I stayed for 5 nights. We were looking for a nice small hotel experience with attention to detail. Cala Luna lived up to our expectations. The staff was excellent and were always aware if we needed something, but also left us alone if we didnt. They were always keeping the area clean and tidy. We loved the massage treatment, which was like nothing we had experienced before. We tried yoga ( which we are inexperienced at) but she made us feel so welcome. We were pleasantly surprised how close the ocean was, just down a private pathway. A nice walk along the beach to Tamarindo (as long as the tide is out) or another option is a safe walk on the sidewalks down into town (15 mins). The whole area is very pet friendly. Dogs on the beach and cats at the hotel. Our airport shuttle driver Hugo, from the hotel, was so kind, he even serenaded us with a lovely Costa Rican song. We would most definitely come again.

Beautiful property, lovely staff, breakfast is great! Love that they have mosquito repellent lotion in the rooms and around the property that actually smells nice. Sunsets are unreal and the connected beach has a great view, along with a cute sunset happy hour on the beach
