This is a quaint hotel with friendly front desk and restaurant staff. It is walking distance from the center of town where there are lots of restaurants and entertainment. One of the features of the hotel is the entrance to the beach; small; semi private section.

WOW
Me and my wife stayed for a couple nights this week and wow what an amazing experience. From check in to renting bikes from the front desk, the hotel restaurant, and getting advice and information from the front desk, everything was absolutely amazing. They were extremely accommodating and helpful, it being my first time in the country, I could not have asked for anything more. Also the beach view room was stunning. We also saw monkeys and sloths from our hammock on our front porch. Whenever I’m able to come back I could not even consider staying anywhere else!

The grounds are immaculate and the staff aimed to please. The location is great for walking to the middle of town or a short tuk tuk drive for about $3 dollars. Breakfast although not included in the price was worth the additional fee and was Delicious.

Good option for a family to stay in town in Puerto Viejo. Right out front there’s a great walking trail through the jungle to Playa Cocles. We saw sloths almost every time we took a walk.

Beautiful
My coworker and I stayed at this hotel for the weekend and we really liked it. The garden is beautiful and there are a lot of different small animals.
Armadillos, crabs, hummingbirds, Watusa and colourfull frogs.
A small walk to the "center" of Viejo.

Nice hotel
Receptionist was very kind and helpful, good location, nice well maintained property, AC and hot water was never a problem, overall was satisfied with our stay. Cons was that the taxi that the hotel called was a pirate taxi and there was a lizard or some kind of animal in our room that would make chirping noises throughout the night waking us up.

This property was excellent. It was just at the end of the strip of restaurants and shops. Quiet, but quick walk to anything in PuertoViejo. The place was clean and had great access to beach. The only problem was the keys provided did not work the gates consistently. Occasionally we had to try a couple gates before finding one the keys worked in. Otherwise this was just what we were looking for.

Great to have direct access to beach and the restaurants, shops, and other beaches were just a few minutes walk. The keys and locks on the gates were not consistently operational. Security and comfort in the room was excellent.

The location, food, and service was incredible. My only dislike would be that the grounds get very slippery when wet. The main host at the reception area, Senor Juan Jose was excellent in making sure we were comfortable and responding to any needs we had. This is where you want to be for quiet time after long fun days.
