This is one of the most magical places that you could ever stay at. You have a sense of being totally immersed in the jungle, while feeling utterly pampered by the clean, comfortable, and roomy cabin accommodations. The owners, Sonia and Pepo are two of the nicest people and go out of their way to make you feel like their... more

Imagine a place where you can get asleep with the music of all the sounds of the tropical rainforest. Imagine begining your day in a garden perfectly integrated in the spirit of the jungle, with howler monkeys, sloths, frogs and other beautiful creatures surrounding you while you indulge yourself with natural juices, fresh caribean fruits and other delicacies for breakfast.... more

Sonia and Pepo went out of their way to make sure everything was great for us. The contemporary eco-friendly design is amazing and a sight to behold. Speaking of amazing, the setting is beautiful and Playa Chiquita is like something out of a movie. Stay here if you really want to get away. Make sure you have bikes/mopeds, as it's... more

After a week travelling aroun Costa Rica we arrived to the Caribean Coast. Looking for accomodation, all the Lonely Planet recommended places were full. Fortunatelly the owner of Playa Chiquita Lodge told us about La Kukula. Lucky us. The moment we arrive there, the simpathy of Pepo and Sonia and the beautiful bungalows were irresistible. We stayed for 6 wonderful... more

Very nice place to stay, it's a hidden spot located at the Costa Rican caribbean and surrounded with a local variety of vegetation and wild animals. A young friendly Spanish couple will be receiving you always with a smile. Rooms are very nice, it's always clean and the service is excellent. It's also a great place for frogs-seeing!!! Totally recommended!!! more

I spent one week with my boyfriend in this amazing lodge. We were speechless when we got there at night time... it was just beautiful!!!! It's a 5 minutes walk from the beach and around 150meters from the main road, which leads you to the jungle experience straight away. The rooms are spacious and spotless, the beds are very comfortable... more

My siblings and I spent a couple of days at La Kukula Lodge and thoroughly enjoyed the visit! Sonia and Pepo are wonderful hosts and went out of their way to make the three of us feel at home. The lodge itself is nestled back into the jungle and the flora and fauna are spectacular! It was a nice escape... more

I was planning a trip for me and my friends and I had heard this new lodge opened its in the Puerto Viejo and Punta Uva area, which we visit very frequently (several times a year). Since we had already stayed at most of the places available, I decided to take a chance and try la Kukula Lodge, and now... more

On arriving at La Kukula Lodge late in the evening I was astounded by the beauty of the place. This eco lodge has been created with minimal impact upon the local wildlife, with a wonderfully landscaped garden packed with treasures. La Kukula Lodge is situated away from the road which runs from Puerto Viejo to Manzanillo and as such feels... more
