Located in Puerto Viejo and only 1.4 km from Cocles Beach, Lomas del Caribe provides accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. With garden views, this accommodation offers a patio and a swimming pool. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

The villas are very well equipped to cook anything you like! You can tell the person in charge cares about maintenance and does a good job at it. The pool was cleaned everyday, I asked for more sheets and towels and they were provided right away. Communication was excellent and easy via Whatsapp. Highly recommended for a group of four or family with kids. Very private, you can hear the monkeys howling and all kinds of birds chirping. Close to all main beaches (Cocles, Puerto Viejo and my fave, Punta Uva).

Los Delfines Lodge, a property with a garden, is set in Puerto Viejo, 1.2 km from Cocles Beach, 2.4 km from Chiquita Beach, as well as 1.8 km from Jaguar Rescue Center. There is a private entrance at the holiday home for the convenience of those who stay. There is free private parking and the property offers paid airport shuttle service.

This has to be one of my all time favorite places we stayed at. The house and property were just great and the location perfect to explore Cocles, Puerto Viejo and Punta Uva. We could have easily stayed more than 5 days. Also the hosts were jsut too kind. We were even picked up at the bus station when we arrived and we got a ride at the end of our stay. Also, we could use their two bicycles to explore the area, which was perfect. If you like to cook your own food, the kitchen is very well equipped and just 1km from the property are two huge supermarkets where you get everything you need. Although during day you'll hear cars driving past the property sometimes, at night the area is very calm and in the morning you wake up to the sound of birds. Also important to mention: all windows are screened with mosquito nets. You don't get hot during the night because the temperatures are quite comfortable compared to, for example, the pacific coast.

We enjoyed ourselves in spite of the comments below, thank you for hosting us.

    This is the most amazing Lodge in whole Costa Rica. There are no words to describe its beauty. We feel blessed having a chance to experience this paradise. We recommend this place to everyone who would like to be as close to nature as it is only possible. While staying in El Nido Jungle Lodge you won’t need to go to any National Parks because all of the most amazing animals live nearby!

    The location is stunning. In the woods and a 5 mins walk to a beautiful beach. The cabin was very tastefully designed and felt luxurious. It is self catering and had thoughtful things like oil, vinegar, salt and pepper and paper towel. Loved the individual terraces and the fabulous breakfast. Sebastian and all the staff very friendly and welcoming.

    The bungalow had a working fridge freezer, the water was surprisingly warm for the location, the TV worked and could access Netflix and prime as well as live TV. The bed is huge. The main highlight was the location close to the centre of town but as it backed on to rainforest howler monkeys, sloths, agouti's and squirrels came straight past the property. Amazing

    Like an oasis in the rainforest, Satto Lodge has everything you need for a relaxing getaway from the busy Puerto Viejo. We loved the junior suite with balcony and outdoor shower, and the pool and restaurant area was brilliant. Finally, Bryan was very helpful in giving recommendations, booking us a kayaking trip and sending information via WhatsApp. We would 100% recommend Satto Lodge and would love to come back again!

    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!

    The setting was amazing. The bungalows were nestled in the jungle and the wildlife we saw was incredible. The owner Peppo was so lovely and he enthusiastically shared his knowledge of the wildlife in the lodge with us. He and the staff could not have been more helpful. The rooms were spotlessly clean and breakfast delicious (fresh fruit and fruit juice, home baked bread, followed by a variety of cooked options and tea/coffee) A fantastic place to stay.
