"In 16 days in Costa Rica this was the best lodge for me.
The lodge is inside the jungle. You wake up with the monkeys and others animals sounds. Perfect.

Review
"The owners/managers Juliet and Matt are AMAZING!! They went above and beyond to make sure we were extremely happy and well taken care of, and they gave us all of the best local recommendations (be sure to eat at Stachu's and visit the Jaguar Rescue Center and Cahuita National Park!!). We absolutely LOVED everything about Physis Caribbean Bed & Breakfast, and we are already planning to come back! Our room was impeccably clean and comfortable, the hammocks in the beautiful garden area are a perfect place to relax, and they made us a delicious made-to-order breakfast every morning. The best beach in the entire area is just a 4 minute walk from Physis, and we also enjoyed being in such a centrally located area to ride bikes to go snorkeling in Punta Uva, visit the Jaguar Rescue Center, and jump on a bus or taxi to get to Puerto Viejo and Cahuita. We loved all of the conversations we had with Juliet and Matt, who are such a beautiful, sweet, and adventurous couple, and we also loved getting to meet their two brilliant sons. I look forward to coming back to Physis regularly from now on! Thank you again, Juliet and Matt, for such a perfect vacation! :-)"

Cahuita is the best pick for your Family.
In the south Caribbean coast of Limon, if you are traveling with kids, Cahuita is the best place to go. We enjoy excellent Caribbean cousine in a local restaurant called Ricky's and stay all afternoon at the beach, inside Cahuita National Park. We felt safe walking in the downtown area. The locals were very nice when we ask for a good place to eat. We will return to Cahuita as soon as we can.

Tortuguero is a small village in the middle of a national park. Very peacefully and with lovely people. It exists only through tourism and this shows in the prices.
To arrive at Tortuguero you have to take first of all a bus from San Jose to Cariari, from Cariari to Pavona another bus and at Pavona there is a boat waiting, which brings you to Tortuguero. The bus company and the boat comany are working together. Also you can take another Route: from Limon or Puerto Viejo to Moin and from there to Pavona. If you are travelling through easter or christmas: arriving and leaving could be difficult. Ask at the busstations or the boatstation. If you need a phone number here in Costa Rica you can call 1113. Also you can ask in your hostel or hotel for help. In my experience the people are very lovely and try to solve your problem.
There are restaurants for tourists, expensive but beautiful and on the other side cheap ones, which are called "Sodas". They do not look that beautiful but the food is equally good. Also you can buy everything in supermarkets and cook which is the cheapest possibility.
A tip: in Tortuguero does not exist an ATM, so you have to pay with your credit card or bring enough money.
While we were in Tortuguero we participated in a canoe tour in the national park in the morning. It was perfect! We saw a lot of animals: a Kaiman, sloths, a lot of birds (for example Tucans and parrots), Iguanas, spiders and so much more. The tour costs 20$ and the entry to the national park 15$. The entry to the park is for the whole day, so we went after the tour in the national park hiking. The trail is 8 km long and very easy.
Also: in Tortuguero you can go to the beach but the sea is very dangerous. There are a lot of currents.
I hope you enjoy your trip!

Puerto Viejo is filled with Limon's traditions, if you like Caribbean food, you're gonna have a blast. The local food is rich in textures, flavor and aromas. But also if you have a more refined palate, please go visit Koki beach, a piece of culinary heaven in a tropical paradise. Also ask for Milko's italian place in Playa Chiquita, as the sign says "with love from Palermo" .
The beauty of the beaches, combined with the flora of the Caribbean make Puerto Viejo a place where you can not only relax, but enjoy every little detail, its fauna is diverse, froms sloths to tiny frogs Puerto Viejo offers it all.
The night life is a blast, and you have many places that you can visit, if its dancing and drinks and wild parties they have it. If its an early dinner and a movie, they have that too. It´s for all ages, from kids to seniors. Just pick the right place to stay.
Enjoy your trip and have as much fun as I did.

It is a city that is good for a very short time. We only stayed there for one night as we needed to be in limon to catch a flight back to San Jose. Not very touristy, but it worked.

Tortuguero is a must on a visit to Costa Rica, but I was a little disappointed about the amount of wildlife we saw. We did of course see lots of birds, a few caimen and a distant sloth high in a tree but they are not as prolific as the nature programmes would lead you to believe. The Jaguar Trail (2.5 km walk) was not really worth doing.....it was just a muddy jungle full of mosquitoes - saw no wildlife whatsoever. We were there in early December.
I do recommend the boat trip from Tortugeuro to Moin (Near Peuto Limon), it is a 3 hour speedboat ride, through jungle canals which break out to the sea in two places (although you dont actually go on the sea). Although slightly long we found it an enjoyable adventure.

Puerto Limon is a port city, period.
Puerto Limon is a port city, period. Unless you are there solely for business meetings, there is no reason to spend the night there. The water is inaccessible, the city itself seems quite dangerous, it is not beautiful, and the food is processed, pre-packaged type food - not authentic, not healthy, not tasty. We spent 2 full weeks in Costa Rica and Puerto Limon is the one city that we could not wait to leave, and regretting choosing to spend a night there.
It is interesting, however, to drive though the town to see the port, the ships, the massive scale of the mono-cropped banana farms, and the miles and miles of shipping containers. Drive through, but stay on either side of the city. Cahuita is less than an hour and WONDERFUL!

The city itself is of course an industrial container port but beaches south of Limon Are lovely. The surf was very high the day we were at Westfalia Beach Resort, magestic and roaring!
If driving from San Jose to Limon, leave as early as you can and be prepared for slow truck traffic at times through the mountains and nearing Limon.
Leave no later than 10:00 am driving Limon to San Jose to be ahead of bulk of semi trucks.

Try to avoid local holidays if you are bothered by litter.
Try to avoid local holidays if you are bothered by litter. It can look a bit rough around the edges but I found that when the sun shines the place takes on a completely different character. Locals are friendly and helpful. Go to the quayside and ask for a boat to be arranged by the parks authority. They are so helpful. We were sorted out with a boat even though the last one had departed to the snorkel site already. Terrific and skilful driver got us back ahead of a great downpour. He was so cool and laid back our concerns of capsizing changed to one of exhilaration as he handled his boat so well on a rough sea. Make sure you go to the national park and explore it with or without a parks guide. Saw an eyelash viper and loads of other stuff despite the numbers of people around. When locals offer help...take it. They are genuine and not after money like so many other places Ive been before. Don't linger in Limon and visit Puerto vieja if you want for a day but linger in Cahuita. It grows on you.

Puerto Limon is just not a place for tourists, nothing to do and it's poor and commercial, not fun to stroll around. But the Playa Wesfalia, a 10 minute taxi away is lovely, good restaurant, nice pool, clean rooms and wonderful staff. Quiet and relaxing getaway.

Only an hour by bus from limon but a much more relaxing place to stay. The park close by is wonderful and worth exploring. Donations accepted to help keep the park in good shape.... trails, etc.
Hospitable welcome at a charming and cosy place with great lagoon pool and chill-out area. Our stay was hampered by my partner suffering a bad fall and needing medical treatment in Limón and then San José. Stéphanie and her team did their utmost to help us, including arranging transfer with our insurance and offering us the last night free. Greatly appreciated, going beyond the call of duty. Thank you again!
Common facilities are absolutely great and beautiful! Private rooms are a bit small but who wants to be in the room in a place so beautiful like Limon coast? Breakfast was very tasty! Swimming pool always clean as well as bathrooms! I would def recommend Selina!
Very quiet ecology-oriented place, friendly staff. It's rather far from San Jose international airport, with a huge traffic, so it's better to use small local airport in Limon to get there. Nice place around the hotel.
A good place to stay if you are traveling to Limón. It is near to Guápiles. The restaurant is good, the food is delicious and the service is very good. They have a big parking lot and rooms are comfortable.
BEST PLACE IN PUERTO LIMON. GREAT HOTEL WITH GREAT STAFF, AND GREAT FOOD. THE OWNER IS GREAT ALSO. THEY WERE SO GOOD; THE PLACE WAS NOT TOO FULL SO THEY GAVE US A FREE UPGRADE. THAT WAS REALY NICE OF THEM.
I really liked the location of the Hotel it let you explore the whole coast of Limon if you rented a car. The rooms were great and the Hotel was really beautiful. The service was excellent.
Even though we had to pay extra for the 5:30 AM boat wildlife tour, it was worth it! As was the $40 afternoon kayak trip! It was my friends milestone birthday, and they made a cake, and surprised her with everybody singing happy birthday at dinner! All the food was very delicious!our guide, Alexander, did a great job of making sure that we got the most out of experience in Tortuguera National Park!
very well organised with lovely guide picking us up from our san jose hotel, breakfast en route and lovely trip via boat to get to hotel. hotel and grounds beautiful. full board included three tours which were excellent and meals very good and plenty available. swimming pool very nice and lovely gardens with river and beach views.
This was a beautiful setting with very friendly staff. A bit off the beaten path and very peaceful. Allowed us to experience the jungle more closely. The jacuzzis in the room took a while to fill but were a lovely bonus after some long days of traveling! The restaurant was great and the beach beautiful.
We loved everything and the staff was great especially Kicha, the breakfast staff and bar staff. A big thank you to the manager fr a wonderful fun kareeokee night lol. And Thank you to the one and only J thanks for inviting us in you Ark. We will be back for sure xoxo from Tina and Ronnie.
A real comfy jungle lodge in the RAIN forest. Had a very nice stay even though we where evacuated on the third day as heavy rain made the rivers rise to eventually flood the lodge. The staff where excellent in handling this unusual situation
50mtrs pool size perfect for swimming, great breakfast, gym, spinning classes, close to everything in Guapiles (national park, the Earth University, super market, restaurants, ...) it's a great place to spend a lot of days.!
Very helpful and friendly owner. Beautiful location and close to the beach, national park and all facilities. Spacious apartment with lovely garden views. So tranquil and chilled. Amazing value for money!
Good location, clean beaches and very close all the facilities and other visiting places. Staff service excellent, specially Claudia, the Catalana and Haley at reception.
