puerto viejo, 70304 Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica –

Lock in a great price for Hotel La Costa de Papito - rated 8.6 by recent guests.

to get started.

I loved the comfy beds and colorful netting. Since there was no air conditioning (most hotels don't have it on Caribbean side), we were glad to have lots of fans in room. The staff were amazing and very attentive to guests. Hotel property well-maintained. After a day there, we realized the hotel was in an excellent location (near chocolate forests and Jaguar Rescue Center). The food and drinks excellent too! I loved the wild animals (safe) wandering around the jungle-like setting. We also spotted a number of sloths in the trees too.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff, bungalows have a great set up, location was perfect.

Tabitha, United Kingdom

I loved the atmosphere and the location of the units in the jungle. Our rooms were extremely private and spacious.

Pat, Australia

Nice 4 bed bungalows, located close to the beach. Really good breakfast buffet, super helpful staff, good parking.

Timo, Ireland

Great staff. 3 mins from the beach. Wonderful forest like setting. Loved it.

Jacquelyn, United Kingdom

Warm and helpful staff. Lots of animals in the property (turtles, kolibris, bats, frogs, butterflys, birds, agoutis).

Jpfk, Finland

The bed was extremely cosy and breakfast just delicious.

Kim, Switzerland

Comfortable bed, big cabin, nice bathroom. The breakfast was cooked on the spot in front of you, which is really nice and the staff are friendly. For Cocles beach the location is great, 2 min walk away. A 5 min drive from Puerto Viejo town and costs 2000 Colones in a cab each way. You can cycle to Punta Uva in about 15 mins or get a cab for 5000 Colones. We accidentally cycled all the way to Manzanillo so that's also doable!

Zina, United Kingdom

Friendly staff and very close to play cocles. Possibility to rent a bike (although it costs 7$ per day) Room was clean

Giulia, United Kingdom

The bungalows were absolutely darling. Eddy, the owner was fabulous and the woman at the front desk (can't remember her name?) was an absolute angel. She figured out and booked our transportation for us back to montezuma. Super helpful.

Nothing to note except it could have been a bit livelier at the restaurant
The jungle setting was very beautiful and serene, the cabanas were spacious and we loved the extra space outside with sitting areas and hammock. The shower in the bathroom was massive! We also took advantage of the spa which was top-notch for both massage and pedicures.

Feels like you are in Shangri-La. Its bungalows are in the jungle and beautifully designed and artistic. Lush wood and greenery. Restaurant and included breakfast are superb. The beach across the street is beautiful and it is easy walking or biking to town. They will arrange tours to local indigenous cocao/medicinal community, rainforest hikes, snorkeling, canopy tours, etc and have bikes, boogie boards, surf boards, etc.

We really needed air conditioning but were grateful there were lots of fans in the rooms. This hotel may need to add more gravel to their road to raise above rain level since it rains a lot during "wet season".

Room was not as clean as I would have hoped. Also one of the curtain holders fell as I was closing the curtain and when the repair guide came to see he was quite rude. He never repaired it and it was a safety hazard. Breakfast also needs to improve in overall quality.
The rooms are very beautiful and private. Its more suited for couples than families. Wifi worked fine and they have chairs and towels for loan for the beach. Well located.

I didn't like leaving
We spent part of our honeymoon here and it was definetly one of our top 2 favourite places we stayed in Costa Rica. The housekeeping was incredible with their swan folding techniques and it was the best included breakfast we had on the trip. Each day was a breakfast buffet! Very close proximity to a beatiful beach and they have chairs and umbrellas you could borrow if you just want to beach bum it. Hot Tip!: The bar across from them will let you buy drinks and just bring them out to drink on the beach. You really don't have to plan to go anywhere else if you just want to decompress. They even have a spa if that's your thing (we didn't use it but it looked great) Bike rental was super affordable ($7US). It's a bit of the way out of town but not far on a bike or 4-5US taxi ride each way if you are going at night. You can arrange rental cars from them as well as various awesome looking tours. Really want to emphasize that they are super customer oriented at this property. I had requested the leopard print sheets for our honeymoon and they delivered with not just the sheets but also a little card, and a love filled bathroom set up, etc. Also - there was a sloth on the ground one morning (a rare sighting) and one of the staff I hadn't met called me over to take a picture. It's also an easy bike ride to the Jaguar Sanctuary (my reason for picking it), and we got our fill of cute critters there. If you are planning on staying in this area I couldn't recommend it more. Also there is more of a nightlife in Puerto Viejo. I would suggest staying there and doing the day tours out of Cahuita.

The bed was extremely cosy and breakfast just delicious.
