Great quality and location
The location is really great if you like to be tucked away from downtown Rincon. The beach proximity is also fantastic . The water there can be on the rougher side so perhaps not the best if you aren't a great swimmer but it's still just a short drive to many other beaches. Restaurant was also excellent, especially the service there.

Tamboo’s staff was friendly and the location can’t be beat for surfing on Sandy Beach. I’ve stayed at three hotels in Rincon and Tamboo was definitely my favorite.

Beautiful beach, loved the restaurant. We had a cute room. I’m sure the Oceanside rooms are even better! Very kind staff. Cute little shop attached with some local handmade jewelry.

Tiny spaces, but big beaches and views!
Great location to beach! Recommend this for a quick stop in Rincon for a couple. Rooms are small, but efficient. Restaurant is the best!!! Sit upstairs at sunset!

The location, beach, and bar and restaurant are top notch. Very convenient to other restaurants, bars, and sights. There is a nice and secure parking lot across the road from the hotel. Our room was clean and comfortable. The air conditioner works well but it makes a periodic loud humming sound every few minutes that occasionally made it difficult to sleep. We had to request additional t.p. and towels at the front desk, no one came to our room at any time to see if we needed anything. Needs more light in the bathroom and we were disappointed that the restaurant/bar was closed on the last two days of our stay so there wasn't anywhere close to get a drink on the beach on those two days. Otherwise, a very good value and pretty place to stay. The pool is a bit small and cold so we were happy that the beach was so nice and the sea was calm and warm.

We loved the location, right on Sandy Beach and walkable to several restaurants. The staff was friendly and responded to all requests! Our room was small for two adults for a week so we will get a bigger room at Tamboo next time. But we will come back .
