The staff at Cala Luna Hotel are truly exceptional. Donnovan, Nicole, Angie, Maru, and many others working behind the scenes made our stay unforgettable from the very start. One of the absolute highlights was watching the sunset from the easily accessible beach—a magical experience that perfectly captured the spirit of Cala Luna.

We had a wonderful stay. There was an issue with an air-conditioning unit which was fixed quickly and efficiently. The villa's private pools were lovely. The hotel pool kept us entertained with the monkeys in the trees above our heads. Great buffet breakfast included which set us up for the day.

Loved our stay! Great service and great food and drink on-site. Farm to kitchen, fresh, and accommodating for food allergies/sensitivies. Was far enough to be away from the crowds, but yet close enough to walk over to the main Tarmarindo spots for surf lessons, food/drink. Walked to the Sam Francisco point daily to get over to Tamarindo.

Beautiful property with rooms interspersed within the natural flora of the area. We spotted multiple monkeys within the trees during our stay. Our room was spacious and very clean, with great air conditioning and hot water. There were a few bugs in the room throughout the stay, but this is a trade-off for being in such a natural setting. Similarly, the pool tended to have natural debris on the surface and could be skimmed more frequently, but was still enjoyable. The hotel is just steps from the beach and there is a complimentary cocktail every night at sunset. I got the signature 90 minute holistic massage which was incredibly relaxing. The hotel is a short drive or a 15 minute walk into town, so the location was great to be away from the noise but still accessible.

Definitely recommend!

We had such an enjoyable experience here since the moment we arrived. The property was beautiful, the food/drinks in the restaurant were so amazing, our massage at the spa was great as well. I love the quick and easy private beach access. We swam in the pool and got to watch the monkeys play above us in the trees for about a hour. Transportation to town was quick and they were very accommodating. We originally had an excursion booked through trip advisor and decided to cancel it and book the same one through the hotel for about $100 more and we were so glad we did! It was basically a private tour and our tour guide was absolutely amazing.

The property is beautiful and the staff extremely friendly and helpful. The food was outstanding. There is a happy hour at the beach that we did not find out about until late in our stay. We had a power outage and loss of hot water during out stay that were quickly remedied but surprising. The only real disappointment was the lack of access to yoga and fitness classes that we had looked forward to. The space for this was taken over by a private yoga retreat and no alternative location was provided.

Almost ideal

This is a wonderful property with very good amenities. For us, a perfect location close enough to Tamarindo but without the crowds. The grounds were very tropical and the pool a welcome respite from the unusual heat during our visit. The beach is only a short walk away and for us a nice mix of rock and sand. The restaurant was very good and the seafood fresh. The overall experience, however, was spoiled by a night-long power outage that resulted in no A/C or fan for the whole night. Miserable end to a nice visit. We paid for three nights and the hotel fell short of delivering.

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.

They dont believe in thresholds for the entrance doors. There were pleny of bugs including a hand size spider in the kitchen. It was so large I had to kill it with a chair leg. There was no way I could sleep in this beutiful condo with the bugs and big gaps in the entrance doors. The large spider was the last straw. The entrance roads were unpaved. Potholes big enough to damage your car. Cala Luna is a great place if you dont care about large spiders and many other sa\ma;; pests that you can hear when you sleep. I left and booked at another place after I killed that whopper spider. Whoh!!!

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!
