Wake to a sunrise from your bed with a view of the Ocean... and, the occasional howler monkey starting its day. Sleep to the sound of gentle waves along the tip of the Nicoya Peninsula in Playa Tambor. "There is no place like Tambor Tropical. It overwhelms the senses - the sight of the bay, the sounds of the monkeys and birds, and the smells of the flowers. Just as special is the charm of the staff and the trees of Tambor. We will return for our seventh time next year to the paradise that is Tambor."

Village of Tambor

The town of Tambor is a small country community surrounded by lush jungle and situated on the Bahia Ballena, the largest bay along the Southern peninsula of Costa Rica. Unlike many other parts of Costa Rica, Tambor has a less touristy feel. It's a hidden gem along the Nicoya Peninsula and an ideal location to spend a relaxing or adventurous vacation.

Community volunteer opportunities at the Tambor Bay School are available through Tambor Tropical. If you would like to learn more please visit the Package page or contact us. "We absolutely love this place and have been here many, many times over the several years.

They have achieved perfection."
