Hotel Capitán Suizo rests on Playa Tamarindo, one of the most beautiful Pacific coast beaches in all of Costa Rica. Directly on the beach, the hotel is surrounded by large, native trees and lush, colorful gardens.

Playa Tamarindo is 200 miles from San José, 45 miles from the International Airport in Liberia, and 2 miles from the local airport in Tamarindo. It is one of many beaches in the northerly province of Guanacaste, which area claims the last tropical-dry forest remaining on the planet. Even during the rainy or green season, sunshine prevails for up to 8 hours every day, and for at least 10 hours during the high season.
