Pangea Lodge

"Good place to stay, we like the house and surroundings. Close to the beach and local shop and restaurants."

Exôtico Beach & Rooms

"The hotel is small (17 rooms) but very clean, tidy, and nicely organized around the pool and restaurant. Check-in and check-out were smooth and easy. The staff were very friendly and helpful—we even lost a charger, and they managed to organize a replacement from town within just two hours. The restaurant is very good, though a bit on the expensive side. The location is excellent, with plenty of restaurants nearby and Puerto Viejo reachable by car in under 15 minutes. Personally, I found going by bike too dangerous. A real highlight is the possibility to use the beach facilities of their partner hotel. The staff there were also very friendly, and thanks to a quick call from our receptionist, we had beach chairs reserved in the front row. There, you can dive straight into the ocean—something you can’t do directly at the beach of exotico beach. A stroll along the beach is also possible, and I even enjoyed a 20-minute run there in the morning, which was amazing. We stayed for 4 nights and really enjoyed the many possibilities the region has to offer. Would I come back? Yes."

Faith Glamping Dome Costa Rica

"If you’re looking for a unique place in the jungle with long secluded beach walks and great breakfasts this place is for you! Every morning we wake up to the sound of birds and monkeys, and there’s usually always a sloth or macaws visible somewhere on the property. Andrea serves a beautiful breakfast every morning and has been such a rock star in helping us organize our activities during our stay. She’s taken great care with us and seems to always know who to call! Plus she has great restaurant recommendations. We stayed in the Harmony dome and it had a very comfy bed, AC + fans, hammock, coffee machine and a private wrap around deck where we had most of our monkey sightings this trip. It’s located a short drive out of town which added to the feeling of being immersed in nature. The only sounds around were waves and cicadas at night. We will be back! Absolutely loved our stay."
