“Physis had soo much character and Juliet was beyond helpful - a very graciously kind hostess.
It was such a relaxing and exotic place to stay as my introduction to Costa Rica!!
I highly recommend it!”
“This was our first time in Puerto Viejo, and we picked this place because the ratings were so awesome. And it's no surprise why! The hotel is super chill and eco-friendly, but still has all the stuff you need for a really comfortable stay.
The staff, and even the owner, are just incredibly friendly and welcoming—none of that stuffy, fake-smile vibe you get at other places. The hotel is totally off the beaten path, which we loved. It's close enough to all the restaurants and shops (like our new……
“I stayed at namu garden in June 2025 and had a lovely experience. My bungalow and the property were immaculately clean and well cared for. The private plunge pool was cleaned daily by the staff, removing particles from all the tropical plants and insects that might have gathered during the night. The property is conveniently located near two grocery stores and a fruit stand so you can easily grab snacks and refreshments for your room. You're a 5 minute walk away from the closest beach as well as……
“My family had an exceptional stay at the Conga Hotel. Everything from the location of the hotel (pretty central in Puerto Viejo) to the modern, clean rooms, and amazing breakfast!
But above everything was the personal attention given by the staff. Valentina and Guillermo especially made sure that we enjoyed our stay. They were so helpful and friendly. I recommend the Conga 100%”
“I stayed for one night and it was definitely worth it. The hotel has beautiful facilities and great amenities. It's conveniently located—just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and bars. Overall, it's a very nice hotel, and I would definitely come back.
The breakfast was delicious, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. However, if I were to provide any feedback, it would be about the bathroom design. It's completely open, and you can see everything from the bed. Adding doors or some form……
“Was tucked away on a side street that had someone follow us so be aware but other than that the property itself is safe and well kept. Had activities every night and had everything we needed. ”
“Beautiful resort style hotel in the middle of the jungle, yet close enough to restaurants in town and the beach.
It has its own private parking lot. Lobby is very nice and sheltered from the rain. Staff communicates everything you need to know and is very friendly. The welcome drinks were a nice touch.
The pool is beautiful and clean. The bar is spacious and it seems there is something for everyone, even the kiddos.
Our double twin room was spacious and clean. I only wish it had a bedside……
“This was a good pic. One of the few hostels in front of the beach at Playa Cocles. Walking distance to public beaches, restaurants and stores. The staff was friendly. Food was somewhat pricey, though. However, the room was clean and a good value for what we paid for.”
“This property was great secluded enough, but just down the road from all the nightlife in scenery and beaches! Staff was great. Rooms were spread apart. Pool is just enough for a knife. Nice refresher.”
“The property is set in amazing rainforest gardens, the hosts are charming and welcoming and so enthusiastic about the wildlife in the area, so happy to show visitors the frogs and lizards, sloths and birds. I absolutely loved it. It felt so safe, clean and friendly i would definitely recommend La Kukula Lodge ”
“This place was amazing and exactly what we wanted. Quiet, right across from the beach and fairly priced! The food was great from the breakfast buffet to dinner as well as dessert! Every single person we encountered was friendly and helpful! We will definitely stay here again if we visit the area!”
