Very nice hotel, rooms were clean and beds super comfortable. Staff was super friendly and accommodating, would recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a great place to stay in Dominical. Within walking distance of the beach and downtown.

Amazing location, steps from the beach! The staff are incredibly helpful and booked all my tours and transportation:) The hotel itself is quiet and peaceful with a communal kitchen (bonus!) and a beautiful courtyard to hang out in. Will definitely stay again.

The hotel is in decent shape. It is little rough on the edges, and needs a bit of "loving up" in the common areas. We like the location, thou Dominical itself could do with a good house cleaning. The beach is a bit trashed out, and the infrastructure is rather neglected. We probably will avoid the area in the future.

Nice location and lovely, cool garden and covered patio. Beds pretty comfortable. Pay in cash only and no reception present after 6 pm. Breakfast not included. Would stay there again.

Staff members were awesome, courteous and informative! Rooms were amazing! Amazing wildlife and property. To hear the crashing of the ocean waves from the room was so surreal and calming. Definitely the best hotel I've ever stayed at. 10/10.

I was excited to stay here but the late bus didn't stop and I found myself in Uvita late at night after being on a bus since 9 am. I was stressed and exhausted. Amy from Tropical Sands was so kind to help me figure out what to do. She even recommended a place I could walk to in Uvita to stay the night. Definitely above and beyond the call of duty.

The garden is absolutely lovely, as is the staff. This quiet hotel on the edge of town is just what we were looking for.

Very clean rooms with A/C. Courtyard garden is well maintained. I especially enjoyed lounging in the hammocks. Amy is a great host giving guest a brief overview of the town hotspots and suggesting activities. Keeps contact info for taxis and also has bus schedules. She will even offer you a ride back to hotel if she sees you in town. Highly recommend staying here when visiting Dominical. Thank you, MTQ

A great place for a sleepy beach town, close to everything and a lush courtyard! Lots of roaming pets 🙏

Easy walk to the beach. We enjoyed the sunrise at the beach.
The Staff was super nice working with us for the late arrival and early departure. We just did a stop over and didn't explore the town.
The room was clean, roomy and the shower has warm water.

Reasonably priced. Nice, quiet and tucked away from the main drag in Dominical. Not too far of a walk. Really nice interior garden area to relax in your hammock on the front porch of your bungalow. I stayed in one of the fan-cooled rooms. While it was basic, it fit the bill and was a restful place to lay my head. Stay here because you want to sleep among plants in the garden and get just outside the noise of dominical for a decent price.

Super location in Dominical, everything is in walking distance. Ken and Amy were very welcoming and happy to share their knowledge of the area.

What a great property, beautiful setting in the trees, it's much more lush than the picture shows! Amy and Ken are great hosts! It's a 2 min walk to the beach, and everything in town is within 10-15 min walk.
They also have a little communal kitchen you can use. They will also help you book any excursions and give advice on what to do, where to eat, etc.

Perfect little Hotel, just steps away from the beach. Simply Cottage style accomodation surrounded by a backyard full of plants and flowers. Great to chill and relax. There are some hammocks in the garden and places to sit in the green. All you need is within walking distance. Amy and Ken were friendly and hearty hosts.

Tropical Sands hotel was a nice quiet spot pretty close to the beach. The property is like staying in a garden. And there's a communal refrigerator to keep your drinks cold as well as a hammock in front of each room. We could hear the howler monkeys in the morning and got to see some scarlet macaws. The beach is only a 3 minute walk away and the town is about 7 minutes walking.

Garden area skillfully set up to maximize privacy of rooms as well as set up several group seating areas. Away from the crowd yet easy to walk to the beach and restaurants

A cute beach hotel with garden area, hammocks, and resident cats and dog. This rooms are clean and basic, available with fan or air conditioning, and there is a common fridge for guests to use. Just off the main street, its close to the beach in Dominical. Bring a flashlight if walking at night because the street lights dont keep the one road well lit. Very walkable to restaurants (Dominical is a small beach town). The staff are helpful with restaurant or activity recommendations, and they will call for transportation or a tour if you request. This was my second time staying at the hotel. Well be back! :)

It was a little hot at times, but that was my choice. They do offer Air Conditioned rooms, but Im cheap. This by no means that the accommodations were in bad shape, completely the opposite. The owners were really great and they kept a really clean place at a great value. I hope by now youve welcomed your baby girl to the world! Congratulations!

Staying here was the best decision we made on the whole vacation! Great vibe. Perfect location. Ken and Amy were amazing. The food and smoothies across the street were to die for. Everything about this place felt like home, if home was in beautiful tropical Costa Rica. Can’t wait to come back. Next time we will splurge for the room with A/C :)

The staff are friendly, the place is quite and a joy to visit.

The place is locked down like a compound and does not allow guests in any capacity. I had a two bed room and while checking in I was lectured about the fact that there were three of us even though we were completely willing to pay the extra $15/person. I was also upset that it was cash only. It was also very sketchy that a few days after booking on Expedia, Amy sends me an email saying I need to pay her half the amount on PayPal and send as friends and family (tax evasion?). Then when I get to the hotel and pay the other half, she will not accept PayPal or a Credit Card and I had to use what little cash I had. There is an ATM in town but it's not close and hard to find. The place is OK but you can find way better places in Domincal. Stay at the hostel across the street instead of this place. I've had nothing but great experiences at every place I've stayed at in Costa Rica until I came here. Of course, the one place I've been to that's ran by Americans was the rudest I've been treated (I'm American too, just saying).
