Everything! Beautifully designed, new bungalows in the middle of a tranquil oasis of a garden with delightful pool. Also with private outdoor shower! The staff was super friendly and helpful. Some other travellers mentioned it was far from the center but it wasn’t an issue for me, I walked every day and it was about 35 minutes along the beach. Would highly recommend if you want to stay in a beautiful hotel in the middle of nature and have a great night’s sleep while being close to Puerto Viejo.

The hotel was beautiful, breakfast was outside (under a covered area in case it rains ;), and the staff was so kind and ready to help if needed! When we arrived we went straight to check in and the first thing we received was a fresh coconut, which was very nice especially after the long drive we had that morning. There were two options for breakfast, american or costa rican breakfast and they were at the moment of ordering, which made it extra good. You have to walk 5-10 minutes to get to the stores/restaurants of the town but that's fine, if you get tired there are always a lot of little "taxis" driving around who will bring you back.

Kim is a really kind host, she will inform you of all the things to do in the area. We had a great time and miss the two cute dogs already.

This place is a paradise. Everything during our stay was perfect. The whole area is so well maintained, clean, every detail is thought of and taken care of. We loved the restaurant- both breakfasts and dinners were outstanding. The chef must be very skilled. Our room was excellent. We could observe different animals from our terrace like aguti or lizards. There’s nothing that could have gone better, our stay was amazing in every detail.

I highly suggest Casa Boho- I extended my stay and didn't want to leave. The location is perfect- it's a short walk to all the stuff in town, without the noise. Easy to bike to/from, especially to Playa Cocles. The room looks exactly like the photos, it was very was clean, and had all you would need for a short stay. Annabelle is SO lovely- she really makes folks feel welcome, especially solo travellers. She also made some great puerto viejo suggestions and has friends that run eco friendly / local owned tours or other local activities. She has a lot of great plans to make the hotel even better than it already is so I can't wait to come back and see it all once it is completed, ie a new kitchen, the yoga spot, other eco projects. Stay here :)

What an amazing experience! We have done the two day raft in and raft out trip to Pacuare River Lodge and it really was one of the most memorable experiences you can get! The owners were friendly and all of their staff especially the guides were fantastic people, really professional and fun at the same time! Shout out to Moses! He was amazing! The whole trip delivered more than we could have hoped for! Nature at its best! Yes the accommodation is basic but it makes it a lot more rewarding as without wifi people actually talk to each other and engage with the environment! The wildlife that we got to see was also on another level!

Everything! The resort is set in a lush jungle setting, we loved hearing the howler monkeys in the morning. We saw monkeys, sloths, agoutis, hummingbirds etc all on the property. Our hut was very quiet and super comfortable. The resort feels like a small intimate resort, yet it offers so much. From morning yoga to free salsa classes to Aqua Zumba. The food is amazing, we can highly recommend the on-site restaurant. The beach in front of the property is not properly swimmable due to rip currents, but it is stunning and we had fun in the waves. There’s a surf school next door too. Staff are super friendly and helpful.

And one more think. Andrea makes you feel like you are home. She was like a mama for us. Thank you for everithing!

All the daily activities we're very relaxed and pleased to practice it. Room exceeded my expectations, all white, clean, room staffs are very responsive. In general, Le Cameleon is well placed.

The ocean is actually quit rough.

The ocean is actually quit rough. You can't let your kids unseen be in the ocean (you can do this never of course, but it was wild). There were lifequards, that gave a safe feeling, but still.. I think Puerto Viejo is very expensive when you buy grocery or souvenirs. That's not nice. And some place were very dirty on the streets. To much trash. But the athmosfere is very relaxed.

We arrived by accident on the day of TortuFest, when there was a carnival in the streets, lots of performers and lots of fun: 1.11., highly recommended. It's good to take a morning canoe tour — even if it's raining the whole time you get to see a lot and it's a nice experience — walk through the jaguar trail, and we've seen a bunch of animals on the night walk as well (including a pooping sloth). El Patio is a great restaurant for carribean food, but the little soda right at the docks was also quite nice.

Only warm hearts and sincere smiles give one the feeling of friendship and every where i went was fun. I stopped at a small restaurant and the waitress being very young and pretty spoke no English which is fine but when looking at the menu i ask if she listed among the items. Only joking in a friendly manor A man who spoke English ask what i was saying and i told him at 82 most don't expect such language. He heard what i ask and went into laughter and smiles telling all what i said. They took it the way i meant it not like i was trying to be rude. The tables around me and those on the sidewalks stopped and laughed and it set the pace for smiles.

We loved our beach cabin stay in Manzanillo!

We loved our beach cabin stay in Manzanillo! We ate meals on the front porch surrounded by the beautiful garden, listening to the rolling waves of the ocean. The beach is just across the street, and the nature reserve is a five minute walk away at the end of the street. There is also a good Caribbean restaurant at the other end of the street, also just a five minute walk from the cabin. Our host was very friendly and attentive. It’s a quiet, authentic beach town, and much less touristy than Puerto Viejo. We plan to stay there again.

Our hotel, Arrecife Punta Uva, was right on the beach and very conveniently close to a restaurant. There were plenty of seating areas and hammocks provided, which made it easy to relax. One of the highlights was a beautiful viewpoint on a cliff about a 10-minute walk away—definitely worth the short hike. The food at the restaurant was also quite good.

Puerto Viejo was a cute little beach front town with lots of life and friendly people. It’s not as “touristy” as I had read about. We felt safe walking around town and loved having so many transportation options. The tuks were a fun option to get around. There were several great restaurants within walking distance. Both Playa Negra and Punta Uva were beautiful beaches. Our visit was during the rainy season but it wasn’t horrible. It would rain a bit but the clear up. Would highly recommend staying there.

We were not originally going to stop in Tortuguero during our short stay in CR, but are so glad we did! It's not easy to get there, but the journey was most definitely part of the fun! We took a private boat from La Pavona (which cost the same as the public boat but offered to take us all the way to our hotel instead of the main Tortuguero dock). On our first night, we booked a turtle nesting tour from 8-10 pm and watched a momma turtle lay her eggs on the beach. It was incredible. We chose to eat at our hotel across the water instead of in town. It was easier that way. Besides the turtle nesting tour, we also took a hike in the national park with our children. There are other tours we could have taken, but we were satisfied with just watching the wildlife (monkeys) play at our hotel pool. On our boat trip back to La Pavona was memorable -- in that we saw many crocodiles along the river.

Costa Rica, for those who prefer nature as a concept not to be endured too long, and with minimal discomfort. I can't speak to other parts of the country but the Caribbean coast is not a place for real travelers. Go to Honduras or Guatemala instead.
