One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at. The owner, Gonzalo, really puts his soul into this place and you can see it in tiny details like night sky projectors in every room. I will happily stay here again if I come back to Puerto Viejo.

This place was perfect for a little getaway. Well equipped with everything from washing machines to coffee makers and a stove. It was quiet, comfortable and not too far away from the beach, great restaurants or the excitement of town.

Our stay here was absolutely lovely. The best part was that we were just chilling on a balcony and suddenly saw a sloth on the tree just a few meters away! Also many other animals. The house is only a few minutes from the center (and barely any distance from the beach) and it still feels like you're in the middle of the jungle. The rooms are basic and the bathrooms are shared, but the whole place is really cute and a very good value for money. It is also beautifully decorated. The kitchen is well-equipped and a good place to hang out. There is a safe place to store a bike. There is a hot water in the shower, not that it's necessary considering the temperatures, but still. The owner is very sweet and helpful too!

Nice and clean stay in the middle of the jungle. You’ll be sharing the house with host Alexandra – incredibly welcoming – cuddle-cat Michael, and possibly another guest. The kitchen is fully equipped with a wide range of utensils, and the bedrooms have fans. One of the highlights is the bathroom, which is surrounded by glass, offering views of the lush greenery (with complete privacy, of course). The house is about a 15–20 minute bike ride from Puerto Viejo – walking isn’t really an option, but a tuk-tuk (around 4000 CRC) is! Drinking water is available. Board games (including Rummikub) are available too.

The atmosphere of this place is great, we spent amazing time here. Fabi (the owner) makes you feel as you were his friend. We had such a good time (especially karaoke, fire and morning walk). It is so much more than a holiday stay, it was a real experience.

The accommodation is in a very quiet and pleasant area, but still close to everything. It’s easy to reach, and the ocean is just a short walk away. The room was very clean and well-equipped with everything I needed. The host was extremely kind and helpful throughout my stay. I would definitely stay here again!

We loved Cahuita Inn, it was probably the cleanest and the most comfortable place we had in Costa Rica. The owners were really kind and accommodating, from bringing us food for the kids when we arrived really late to borrowing the thermometer when one of the kids got sick. The rooms were big, spacious and clean. We would definitely return on our next trips.
