Perfect space to stay on Playa Grande. Right across the street from beach access let’s you be at the beach in a few steps. Also solid swimming pool area with WiFi to help get remote work done while visiting.

Propre, confortable, belle cours intérieur, très près de la magnifique, immense et magnifique plage de Playa Grande. Restos adjacent délicieux. Pas dispendieux. Le calme mais non loin de Tamarindo l'agitée

L’emplacement près de la magnifique Playa Grande. Le resto : délicieux ! Les installations extérieures. J’ai moins aimé la chambre qui n’était pas à la hauteur pour ce prix. Très très basic.

If you're wanting to immerse yourself into the culture, then this is the place to stay. It has a jungle feel to the property along with some critters, I opened the door in the morning and a crab thought he could take me on. We loved Playa Grande and will definitely go back!!

The staff is awesome, the property and room are good for the price. My only complaint is the noise. Because the property is older, made of wood and there is humidity, one can hear creaking from neighboring rooms when people are walking around. Not a big deal during the day but if one's neighbor stays up late or rises early, there is no sleep. Bring earplugs :)

Liked: Amenities
Excellent location near the beach and two outstanding restaurants. Pleasant and accommodating staff. Good shower and AC. However, our room was a big disappointment. Walls and ceiling were dark and made of plywood. Seemed cheaply made. So-called kitchen consisted of a plank counter, tiny sink, one-cup coffeemaker, antique refrigerator. No chairs except for backless bar stools. No dining table. Overpriced for the quality of accommodations.

Hidden Oasis

Its a very quiet chill place to hang out for a couple nights. Rooms are small and simple but your close to an AMAZING empty beach, good surf for the experienced. Great pool to cool off, market and resturants near by, or just eat and drink at the hotel with owners and staff, all very Fruendly!

I enjoyed my time at Sugar Monkey. It has a fun bar, hangout area, and pool. The staff was very nice and helpful. The room itself was clean and came with A/C. Although the bed was not very comfortable. The hotel is very close to playa grande, within walking distance.

Perfect Surf Hotel off the Beaten Path

Great stay at Sugar's Monkey!! The hotel staff here is very welcoming and fun to talk to. I really enjoyed my stay here. The hotel bar & food was excellent, they have delicious brick oven pizza! The hotel was easy to get too, and is only a 2 minute walk down a short path to the beach. I really did have an amazing stay here in Playa Grande! You can also rent Surf Boards directly from the hotel for $10 / day, you can't beat it! The hotel itself is small, only about 8 rooms. Rooms were clean and tidy, but not a ton of thrills. It's a great spot to catch some waves and sun, away from the more touristy Tamarindo. I'd 100% go back again!

Great staff, close to beach, pretty hotel

Stayed one night. Pretty secluded but right next to the beach. Hotel staff was excellent, property was pretty, well maintained. The beds were very small and not comfortable. Still a good place to stay for surfers
