Puntarenas Province: soggiorni in bungalow

Beautiful cabin with an excellent location overlooking Playa Callejones! There is a nice lookout area and just a short walk down to the beach. The cabin was perfect for our group and is a great spot for a relaxing break. Beatrice was great and communicated all information clearly and responded quickly to help us sort out a small issue. Would definitely visit again!

The place is lovely! The location is fantastic, right on the beach and next door to a restaurant and bar with great food. It's just outside the hustle and bustle of the town, but still close enough to easily walk by way of the beach. For me the location was ideal. The room was comfortable and cute. The host was kind and helpful. She set up a hammock on the beach for me, which made for a warm welcome. I was satisfied and would happily stay here again.

This place is to die for. You can paddle in to the break right out the private beach( low tide). Wildlife everywhere. Scarlett McCaws would feed in the trees out front and monkeys would steal your fruit if you left it out. You wake up to the sunrise on your face. This is a bucket list type of place. The photos don’t do it justice. The view out the front is incredible. We will be back for sure. I can’t say enough good things about this place.

Un lugar muy lindo y acogedor, perfecto para pasar tiempo en familia

Our recent stay at the Caribbean Coconut Hotel in Playa Grande, Cahuita, Costa Rica, was nothing short of magical—and a huge part of that was thanks to Silvio! From the moment we arrived, his warm hospitality, attention to detail, and genuine care made our vacation truly special. Silvio went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed whether recommending the best local eats or simply sharing his deep knowledge of the area’s culture and wildlife. His positive energy and dedication to guest satisfaction are what set this hotel apart. The property itself is a slice of paradise—tropical, tranquil, and just steps from the stunning Playa Grande. But it’s the people who make a place memorable, and Silvio’s kindness and professionalism made us feel like family. If you’re looking for an authentic, relaxing, and joy-filled Costa Rican experience, Caribbean Coconut Hotel—and especially Silvio—will exceed all expectations. Pura vida at its finest!

David's place is amazing. 2 minute walk to the point (no better location for a surfer), all the amenities you need, beautiful gardens, friendly gardener and cleaner. Tons of fruit on the property that the gardener always harvest and gave to us to eat! To top it off, David was available to respond to any questions etc almost immediately. From restaurant suggestions, to tips on which breaks to surf on specific tides and swell direction. We loved our stay and hope to rent from David again! Thanks for everything David.

The people at the lodge are wonderful and made us feel very at home and welcome. Breakfast was really good too. We rented bikes from Mister Joseph and the ride to and from town took about 20 minutes because it is a bumpy unpaved rode but also has few cars and ocean views making it a pretty journey. The beach there is very dramatic with lovely sunrises. Isabelle is very active and engaged with the community and environmental projects and is a wealth of information about Cahuita. Roberto is also a gem of kindness and knows a ton about plants and animals.

If you are seeking immersion in nature and being in tune with natural cycles, this is the perfect place to slow down and just be. I loved waking up a little after 5am naturally as the light just started to break, hearing the sound of the waves and howler monkeys and cicadas. I could see the ocean from my unit, and it was nice to be able to walk along the beach or take a swim to cool off. The place looks exactly like the photos. My glamping unit was very clean and simple yet nicely decorated with plenty of shelves to put my belongings. It was so nice to have a fully equipped and pristine kitchen with plenty of space to store my food. I was delighted watching the monkeys every single day. There are many birds (hawks, scarlet maccaws). And a coati scampered right by me as I sat on my patio drinking coffee early one morning. The hosts are so nice and take very good care of the place, ensuring it remains a peaceful stay for everyone and is respectful of nature and wildlife.

Alles war super! Einziges Manko, dass es etwas weit von Puerto Viejo entfernt ist, aber das sieht man ja schließlich auf der Karte beim Buchen, zumal man außerdem Fahrräder für 5$ 24h mieten kann! All in all aber alles sehr angenehm und unkompliziert!

Die Übernachtungen bei Cory und seiner Frau waren wunderbar. Die Unterkunft war modern, gemütlich eingerichtet und das Bett war ein absolutes Highlight! Großzügig und sehr bequem. Cory und seine Frau haben sich Mühe gegeben, uns den besten Weg zur Unterkunft zu beschreiben und uns mit frischem Obst begrüßt. Die Tipps zu nahegelegenen Restaurants haben wir gerne genutzt. Von unserer Terrasse aus konnten wir einen brütenden Tucan beobachten ☺️ Wir wären gerne länger geblieben!

This place is truly special. the level of isolation in the forest is really something and hiking down to the lost pools was such fun. My kids loved the pool and the kitchen area has everything you need.

Los Pargos/Playa Negra is a remote beach, great for walking and beach combing. Sparsely populated, but very friendly surroundings and people. Take water! There is a beach-side restaurant for simple food/refreshment, but mostly it's just surfers, walkers, and folks sitting in the shade of palm trees and cooling off in the waves. There is a small grocery store and several nice places to eat along the road to the beach. A place for serenity and nature lovers, not partiers and night-life seekers. Mathieu replies quite quickly to texts and questions.

Evan’s place was more than I expected! The view of the waves is unbeatable! You can just sit on your porch and watch until the perfect surf conditions arise then walk right across the street and paddle out. It is just a short walk down the beach to Hotel Tramonto. There was a guy that brought fresh fish, shrimp and lobster right to the front door so I bought some and cooked it up for dinner. I would definitely stay there again.

Lieber Youbi, Vielen Dank für die tolle Zeit und Unterkunft. Diese hat uns sehr gefallen und es war sehr schön dich persönlich kennenzulernen. Wir können deine tolle Unterkunft sehr weiterempfehlen, du bist ein toller Gastgeber. In der Nähe der Unterkunft befindet sich ein Supermarkt und gute Restaurants. Youbi ist super vernetzt und kann Kontakte weiterempfehlen, z.B. für Quadverleih (sehr empfehlenswert, da die Unterkunft auf einem kleinen Berg liegt). Die Unterkunft ist sauber und gemäss Beschreibung, Pura Vida! :)

When we were first making our plans, Jan from the very beginning helped us with making sure we had a car rental, made our reservation for us to stay at the Holiday Inn for our return trip home. Told us about the money exchange. All before we even met her. This was our first time in Costa Rica. We could not have picked a better place. It is off the beaten path but close to beaches and Jaco(5 minute drive). I have to say Jan is the best of the best! She greeted us with open arms. Helped us with places to see, where to shop for groceries and much much more. If you are looking for tranquility, Greg’s gardens are beautiful and well maintained. He also keeps the pool in top condition. I loved staying in their two bedroom house! It has everything you can possibly need for comfort away from home. The private pool is such a big bonus for those hot afternoons. We will definitely be back next year! I LOVED this place!

Wir haben eine wunderbare Woche hier verbracht. Der Check-in war sehr unkompliziert, die Unterkunft sauber und Paula war für Rückfragen immer erreichbar. Insgesamt haben wir uns sehr willkommen gefühlt und bekamen tolle Tipps für Unternehmungen in der Gegend. Außerdem durften wir Fahrräder ausleihen, was sehr praktisch war um die Gegend zu erkunden. Die Unterkunft liegt etwas außerhalb des Ortes. Das Zentrum ist auf einem schönen Weg am Strand entlang gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Der Garten auf dem Gelände ist ebenfalls sehr schön, nur manchmal war es von der Straße her etwas laut. Da das aber der einzige kleine negative Aspekt war würden wir die Unterkunft uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.
