Tango Mar Resort

Tango Mar Resort, on Quizales Beach at Tambor

Tango Mar is a beachfront resort with its own golf course on Quizales Beach, near Tambor on the Nicoya Peninsula. At high tide the waves come right up to the edge of the gardens, and the beach rooms fall asleep to them. It suits honeymooners, families, birders and anyone who wants a quiet beach base close to Montezuma and the Cabo Blanco reserve.

Why we choose it

• Rooms on the sand. The Beachfront and Deluxe Beachfront rooms face the ocean, so the Pacific is the first thing you see in the morning.
• Villas for big families. The Robinson Crusoe Villa sleeps 6 and the Royal Villa sleeps 10, both on the beach.
• Golf and birds on the grounds. A nine-hole executive golf course runs through gardens where birders find plenty to look at.

Rooms and views

The Beachfront rooms, 35 to 40 m2, sleep 2 or 4 and look at the ocean. The Deluxe Beachfront rooms are bigger, 45 to 60 m2, and made for two. The Tropical Suites sit in the gardens with ocean or garden views, and the Tiki Suites, raised on stilts with bamboo and carved wood, face the sea.

For families or groups there are the two beachfront villas and the Villa by the Golf Course, which sleeps 8 to 10 with views over the course or the garden. A Garden Room is set up as an accessible room.

On the property

The gourmet restaurant and the seaside bar are the social heart of the resort, with the beach right below. There is a spa for slow afternoons, a pool, and the golf course for a morning round. The resort also hosts weddings on the beach.

Location and getting there

Tango Mar is on Quizales Beach, Tambor, on the southern Nicoya Peninsula. We arrange the domestic flight to Tambor or the drive and ferry, and from the resort we book snorkeling, fishing and ATV tours with the partners the hotel works with, plus day trips to Montezuma and Cabo Blanco. It is one of our team's favourites near Tambor.
