Very excited on our renovations!

This year we are excited to welcome guests here at Sueño del Mar Bed and Breakfast to our updated and expanded breakfast terrace. There was always a nice beach view from our terrace, but this year we had the terrace ceiling raised and upgraded allowing for an even better view of the ocean!



The breakfast area is next to our pool and just steps away from the beach. Surrounding our terrace is our luscious tropical gardens full of fruit trees, flowering plants, small creatures like butterflies and hummingbirds, and our frequent animal friends including iguanas and howler monkeys. It is common to see our howler monkey friends bouncing around in the trees over our property. The males make excited grunts and howls while the females enjoy a leisurely nap while the baby monkeys hop around swinging from branch to branch.

After your breakfast you are able to stroll a couple steps to our beachfront lounge chairs, hammocks, and daybed. Or just hang out in the lounge area of our breakfast terrace. This is where you can find many travel guides and photo books of the wildlife and plants of Costa Rica.

And right next to our breakfast terrace on the beach path is also our little breakfast palapa featuring a comfy swing to sit in and enjoy your coffee. If leisure is what you are looking for, hop on down to Costa Rica and let us treat you to an incredible breakfast and locally roasted coffee. You will not be disappointed!

Guanacaste Tree

 When driving to our Bed & Breakfast in Tamarindo, Costa Rica you will definitely pass some of our beautiful vegetation including many fruit trees, flowering shrubs, fields of sugar cane, and some incredible shade trees. One tree that stands out among the rest is the guanacaste tree, the tree for which our region of Costa Rica is named. In fact, the guanacaste tree was declared Costa Rica's national tree in 1959.

The guanacaste tree is said to symbolize stability and growth, as well as the power of Mother Nature.

The guanacaste tree is easily identified by it's very large crown of leafy branches and it's permanent green color. The term guancaste tree means ear tree because the curled seed pods on the trees resemble ears.

The guanacaste tree is important to Costarrican culture because the wood of this tree is water-resistant and easy to work with, which makes it a popular wood for making everything from furniture to oxcart wheels. Medicinally, the tree has been used to treat various ailments such as lung infections and colds, and the extract from the bark has even been used as a soap substitute.

Here at our Bed & Breakfast we are proud to have our rooms shaded by one of these magnificent trees!

What a Howler monkey eats?

At our B&B we have are very fortunate as we often have a family of Howler Monkeys close to the hotel. 

They live in the treetops of the big Guanacaste trees that we have on our property.  The monkeys are able find food all year around our boutique hotel.  The diet of a Howler Monkey consist mainly out of leaves and some times some fruit.  We have several trees around our property that are green all year around.  The one leave they probably like the best is the leave of the Papaya tree.  We enjoy growing some of our favorite fruits here at the B&B but the monkeys often get to the plants before they have fruits.  We have tried to plant the trees at many different places but they always seem to find a way to get to them!

Our Day Guard.

 All of our guests know and love our new day guard. They always see him sunning himself at the entrance when coming and going from our beautiful beach-side boutique hotel.

They really find it fun to have to ask permission to enter and to use the stairs. And of course they love to name him - Juan, Jose, or even Mary Lou.

This species of Iguana is very typical of this area in Costa Rica and there are many in the areas surrounding Sueño del Mar.

So come stay with us in Tamarindo. You will always have a great reception from our friendly iguana when you visit us in our tropical vacation oasis.
