The latest Costa Rica Hotel, Hotel PURE Tropicana, added to the Hotel PURE properties offering, came from the beautiful beach of Tamarindo (http://www.tamarindo.com/) located at the northwestern part of Costa Rica, on the Pacific Ocean, accessible by land or air transport. Once a fishing village, the little town has transformed into a tourist attraction due to its beautiful beaches, lush rainforest and the giant leatherback turtles that come back every year for their nesting. Tamarindo Beach also houses some of the best seafood restaurants in the area, 2 championship golf courses, and a complete nightlife should one choose to explore after a long day of excursions. The property consists of 44 rooms located only 150 meters from the beach. A full-size swimming pool, secure parking, complimentary breakfast and swim-up bar are just some of the amenities the property has to offer. The property can be viewed at the Hotel PURE website (http://www.hotelPure.com) under the PURE Locations section.

Having properties now both located in downtown San Jose and the beautiful beach area, Hotel PURE has started to put together exclusive Costa Rica Tours utilizing these properties as home bases to various exotic natural wonders such as the Turtle Tours, Volcano Tours, Butterflies farms, Rainforest Tours, White Water Rafting, in the country. These exotic tours are being designed and will be integrated into the Hotel PURE (http://www.HotelPure.com) Tour section in the near future.
