After 4 amazing days at the Hotel Capital Suizo on Tamarindo Beach, my fiance and I decided to move inland to do some day trips and enjoy the scenery. The Hotel El Sabanero , while reasonably priced was a big disappointment. First of all the hotel is about 20 minutes and a $30 cab ride from ANYTHING. The hotel grounds... more

although our stay at el sabanero eco lodge was pleasant, we will probably not be returning there on our next trip. it seems that most people had positive experiences though, so maybe we were just there during a difficult time. also, im sure we were spoiled by our WONDERFUL experience at Arenal Green (see my review there, i highly recommend... more

Where to begin...all in all, I love this hotel; we met great people and had many nice days next to a "tropical paradisesque" pool.

She was wonderful and extremely friendly. The resort is about 20minutes east of the beach town of Tamarindo and remote enough to... more

Stayed here for 5 nights and had a wonderful time. The owner was away, but we were very well looked after by Grevin, who had only just started! He was a great host and made us feel very welcome. The reasons we loved this place are the views (stunning, overlooking the pastureland and hills), the wildlife (howler monkeys would come... more

My husband and I stayed at El Sabanero at the beginning of the high season. The lodge was more authentic than a large resort and not touristy at all. Which is what we liked the experience without the other loud obnoxious tourists. The rooms consisted of cabana/huts with a bed, two end tables, foot of bed table, a table to... more
