For those who would like to enjoy an exciting round of golf on their holiday, the hotel proposes Los Delfines Golf & Country Club.

The course is located just 1km away from the hotel.


Guests at Barceló Tambor can visit and enjoy this service at an additional cost.


This spectacular and competitive golf course, originally built by the Barceló Group, is set in beautiful tropical surroundings. The golf course was remodelled by Ulrich Lang, a Class A Superintendent since 1998 and a member of the GCSAA (Golf Course Superintendent Association of America).


The new design adds more drama along with better views for spectators. The aim of the remodel was to improve the quality and strategic challenges of the golf course, addressing environmental concerns and reducing maintenance problems by changing the bunkers. Ulrich Lang worked on replacing the drainage system in bunkers, changing the design to the typical English/European type. These bunkers are respectful of the tropical climate and withstand rainfall better than the previous bunkers. These new, white-sand bunkers are now available to guests.


Los Delfines golf course is home to the largest population of Scarlet Macaws in Costa Rica and is the only golf course in the world to offer sanctuary to 170 released Scarlet Macaws.


ASOPROLAPA was founded in late 1996:


"The survival of the Scarlet Macaw is ensured through a controlled captive breeding programme on the Nicoya Peninsula".


Nearly twenty different species of trees have been planted around the Los Delfines golf course to make it easier for the birds to find their natural food and preferred resting and nesting sites. The ultimate goal is to release a total of 200 birds and establish a viable biological population.

Many of Costa Ricas's prime scuba diving spots are located on the Pacific coast. 

Isla Tortuga and Cabo Blanco are some of the most famous spots on the country's continental coast and are considered the best places to scuba dive, thanks to the spectacular views of the sea bed. The underwater world of the Pacific coast has warm waters and a large variety of marine life. The colourful sunsets in the area are equally impressive. 

Although most tourists travel to the country to explore out of the water, Costa Rica has recently made a name for itself as a diving destination.Pinnacles and underwater volcanic rock formations are home to small hard corals, sponges and gorgonians. In addition, large pelagic species such as giant squid and sperm whales can often be seen. 

PADI Certificates 

Guests can choose from 3 different levels of PADI certification, whether as an introduction to the world of diving or to further hone their skills. With a PADI certificate, guests obtain the world's most respected and recognised scuba diving credentials: 

· Discover Scuba Diving with dives up to 12 metres deep 

· Open Water Diver for dives up to 18 metres deep 

· Advanced Open Water Diver for experts, up to 30 metres deep

The Barceló Tambor hotel has 2 outdoor pools measuring over 2,000 m², connected by a waterfall. 

Guests can enjoy this spectacular pool area by taking a refreshing swim in the sunshine, or sunbathing in the wet area with sun terrace located in the lush garden. 

Children will have the time of their lives in the children's pool, with multiple palm tree fountains spraying water non-stop. At Barceló Tambor, everything has been designed to ensure that families enjoy themselves to the full, providing rest and tranquillity for parents and unlimited entertainment for children.
