Located in the jungle we saw numerous wildlife to include sloths 🦥! The pool was nice and clean and the staff very attentive. The bungalow was very spacious and comfortable.

I love the proximity to the beach and town. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming as they have been in previous stays. The room was exceptionally clean if somewhat dated. No luxuries but a definite win on price and value. Highly recommended if you want to be right on the beach and near everything. I never rent a car as anything you need is within walking distance.

A true jungle experience in a calm secure, laidback and amazing environment! Amazing little restaurants, beautiful beaches ! Much prefer this Caribbean Coast than the Pacific. Just rent a bike to move around or take a Tuktuk. Fruit markets on the roadsides!

Clearly a place for a younger crowd than us 70+ year olds but that didn't get in the way for us. Always treated well. Great to have such an international mix of people. Great food options, again with a mix of cuisines. With modest efforts you can arrange individualized itineraries for the sights. Infrastructure (local transportation, streets/roads, sidewalks) could benefit from updating - always a challenge in crowded, somewhat remote areas.

Charming Caribbean town, friendly
Charming Caribbean town, friendly
people, fun restaurant and entertainment options However, all gringo eateries are vastly overpriced. Avoid all the fancy places, totally not worth it. Exorbitant prices for nothing special. Opt for the few, but better, luncheonettes instead. Beer, not wine.
Loved Riquisimo! Be aware that different taxis charge different rates for the same trip, because they can haha! Chill! ;-)

This location is crowded with lots of traffic.
This location is crowded with lots of traffic. There’s trash alongside the roads and it’s very noisy at night. You must get up early to find a spot on the beach and the waves can be very rough and unsuitable for swimming just about anywhere. It is also far more expensive than we had remembered compared to our last trip vs the Pacific side.
If you must go to Caribbean side of Costa Rica, stay closer to Punta UVA or Manzanilla away from the crowds.
Where to eat in Puerto Viejo: La Nena, Zaika, Lidia’s Place, Tambie Bros, and Pizzeria Pulcinella.

A great laid back type of caribbean seafront.
A great laid back type of caribbean seafront. Good bars and a hippy vibe.
Some decent supermarkets in town and on the road out to Manzanilla.
The bar in the Puerto Viejo Hotel on Friday night is a must.
We had a great stay at Le Cameleon!
Pros:
-Friendly and helpful staff (shoutout to Daniel for all his help)
-beautiful jungle-like property
-2 pools + hot tub
-Easily accessible restaurant across the street
-Quiet (except for the nature sounds! Lots of wildlife on the property so you will definitely hear them)
-far enough from downtown puerto Viejo to feel secluded but a very quick taxi ride or ~30mins bike ride
- a quick 10 mins walk from the Jaguar Sanctuary
-has a spa on the property - good deep tissue massages!
The bungalows are set beautifully within the jungle - like being on safari in the Costa Rican rainforest. Our family loved the mosquito net covered beds and overall experience in a tropical sanctuary cabin. The staff was friendly and welcoming and the location was great - walking distance to Playa Cocles and far enough outside of Puerto Viejo to be quiet and peaceful. Outdoor showers were available for rinsing off after swimming or surfing at the beach. Be careful as the waves can be quite powerful at times!
We had a great stay at Terrazas del caribe! it’s in a great location - near to the Jaguar park and a short rickshaw ride to the beach! the staff really made our trip great! In particular, Michael and Yusmary on the front desk. They were exceptionally helpful in assisting us with finding taxis and helping us figure out how to get our CR phone number to work! Thank you so much! the pool area was also clean and relaxing. The hotel is surrounded by tall trees and one morning we were lucky enough to spot a sloth!
Facility is amazing, lots of wildlife and huge trees surrounding the property that you can see from all parts of the hotel. The staff was especially incredible. Joseph, Cristian, Manfred, Marianna and especially Daniel were all some of the best human beings that my girlfriend have ever experienced from a hotel staff. They go above and beyond with essentially every need of their guests, without question. Drinks and food are excellent, and the walk to the beach is roughly 3 minutes.
The hostel has a great atmosphere. Everyone was getting along well and having fun, the rooms were comfortable and had large lockers available, the bathroom was cleaned regularly, they gave a free towel. All of the staff were happy to help and answer questions about puerto viejo and Costa Rica in general.
It's not particularly close to the beach, but its worth staying here if you want to have a fun time.
The semi-private beach was amazing. The hotel had the beach lounging dialed in with seating on the beach, and a deck about 30 feet off the beach. They serve coffee near the beach (starting around 5am) in the morning and drinks at night. Breakfast was pretty good with decent portions. The resort had a super nice market attached. The room I had was quirky but cool. It was a great value for money.
Great location and hosts! Across the street is fantastic French bakery, bike shop to get your local transportation and the sea with a nice swim beach and fancy bar of the adjacent hotel. Excellent Italian restaurant just a few houses away with the best pizza ever to pick up.. And an elegant dining experience with superb food and wine when you dine in! Overall great experience!
The staff was really friendly and nice, the view on the sea was the best thing that this place had. The common area was nice too. I came in Puerto Viejo by bus and it was really easy to get to the hotel, if you don’t have a car you can rent a bike in front of the hotel or take the tuk tuk. Everything (restaurants, markets, beaches) are really accessible. Nothing to say really!
for 3 nights we did stay in the only cottage with air conditioning (Deluxe Bungalow), which is highly recommended even though a little more expensive. The bungalow was spacies, with a large terrace facing the pure nature and only a short walk to the almost private beautiful beach. We would stay there again. One of our best hotel experiences during our round trip.
Perfect location, on a beautiful, private and quiet beach. Super close to Puerto Viejo town with loads of restaurants, super markets, bike & scooter rentals. Lovely place with gorgeous ocean views and the unit has everything we needed for our stay. We even saw a sloth right on the grounds! The gardens are also really beautiful.
We loved the bungalow at Casa Viva. Having access to such an amazing beach was a great asset. Punta Uva is just south of the crowded Puerto Viejo, which gave us a more of a secluded feel to our trip . The hotel gives many recommendations for restaurants and activities. We hope to go back sometime soon!
The hotel is perfectly located just a short walk from the restaurants and bars. The fabulous black sand beach is just a minute away. The staff are friendly and always happy to help. The room was clean and spacious. They happily accommodated us for a extra night as we really loved Puerto Viejo.
Great location mere steps from a superb beach …. lots of wildlife (monkeys, toucans and even macaws from the local sanctuary) … plus Sebastian and the staff pay incredible attention to detail in every aspect. We’d return to the area and Kanik Apart Hotel in a heartbeat. 🩵
Lovely place which is a bit further from town but was quiet and peaceful. You can rent bikes from a hotel nearby and the beach is so close and it's black sand, much cleaner and quieter than town. WiFi worked well. Private kitchen and ensuite so you have complete privacy.
The property was amazing fun, little trails entertaining pool for tbe kids, and it has its own little trail to the beach (cocles) lots to do all over town. The breakfast was the top tier, the best hotel breakfast I've had in CR tbe beaches are so nearby.
Very nice apartment with a lot of space, the kitchen has everything you need for cooking, a very delicious bakery is just 1 min away, nice beaches nearby, the best: we saw so many animals from the terrace (birds, lizards, squirrels, iquanas and a sloth!)
Very clean and big rooms, good location, good wifi, very friendly owner who was very helpful and gave very good recommendations. Thanks again for the nice stay in Puerto Viejo and all the helpfulness. I can highly recommend this hotel!!
Great value for money just opposite a beautiful beach! Close by you can rent a bicycle for 9 USD for a period of 24hrs which I believe is the best way to explore Puerto Viejo! Recommended!
