This is the worse place ever. It seems nice at frst look, but is decadent. Poor maintenance. Smelly, dirty, cats screaming, cat poop in pool furniture, horrible. This is not a hostel. It's a restaurant, so all the pictures u see of ppl hanging it's just from it. In 4 days there, saw 1 couple going for dinner. No atmosphere, pool dirty. Good pp working. Nice a/c, thats it. And don't be fooled about the kitchen, it's not be used by ppl doorms, it shows a kitchen for the few private rooms.

I came back to Bonga House because I enjoyed my stay so much the first time!It's such a beautiful place .Really close to the beach and located in a lovely, peaceful area, yet still just minutes away from all the party spots in Tamarindo. The hotel has a wonderful atmosphere. The staff are incredibly friendly and do everything they can to make your stay perfect. It's a small hotel with a warm, family-like vibe.The rooms were very clean, and if you need anything, the staff are always ready to help
