Barceló Tambor

Playa Tambor, Nicoya
So many people, it felt like a cruise ship. Long lines at the buffet. Mediocre food. Could not reserve a table for an evening meal at any of the restaurants because they were booked solid. Overall, it did not feel luxurious. I’m glad we only booked a room for one night.

The location of the hotel is absolutely amazing, along the Tambor bay. However, the rooms were very old and the buffet quality average.

This was our second time at Barcelo Tambor. The staff was just as friendly and helpful as the previous time. This time we elected to ride the horses on the beach which was my wife’s life long dream, this was also excellent and thoroughly enjoyed.
