We have been very lucky to experience the great hospitality of Tom and Zoe in the heavenly spot they created near Puerto Viejo de Talamanca. A very luxurious lodge that has been designed minutely (e.g. electric connections literally everywhere), including a private plunge pool amidst a magnificent botanical garden. And last but not least, we really loved the howler monkey... more

Luxurious, architect designed accomodation surrounded by the majestic rainforest highlighted by the occasional sighting of howler monkeys, toucans, hummingbirds or butterflies!! Every possible need had been anticipated and nothing was too much trouble for our wonderful hosts Zoe & Tom and their charming support team Jose & Tita A truly magical place to call home for the week. more

Head and shoulders above anywhere else we stayed in CR. We spent a magical week in the luxurious, architect designed, Casa del Bosque, surrounded by the majestic sight and incredible sounds of the rainforest highlighted by the occasional sighting of howler monkeys, toucans, hummingbirds or morpho butterflies. It felt truly exclusive with only two beautiful, Casas sympathetically arranged with complete... more

The rooms are luxurious, the setting amazing and the hospitality and service faultless at this beautiful private guest lodge in Puerto Viejo. Zoe and Tom took great care of us organising trips and helping us to get around and discover the beaches and rain forests in the area (renting a car or golfcart is recommended to get around easily). We... more

Our stay at Geckoes Lodge could not have been better. The location, while off the beaten path enough to be quiet and secluded, was just a short ride away from restaurants and attractions. If you're looking for a place to stay right in the middle of the Puerto Viejo nightlife, this is not the place, if you want some peace... more

It sounds like a cliche, but Geckoes is actually more wonderful in person than the beautiful pictures on their website show. It truly feels like you're in a magical treehouse, surrounded by the jungle. Every amenity has been thought of - from the simple (seasonings, a pair of scissors in the kitchen), to the practical (umbrellas, flashlights, wildlife guide) to... more

Casa Del Bosque was so much more than we anticipated! The beauty of the backdrop of the jungle to the special touches and the wonderful service of the owners and caretakers made our visit most memorable. The house felt like home! The privacy of the plunge pool and the extra special amenities enhanced our stay! The location of the property... more

By far the best lodge we have been during our 3 weeks stay We spent eight nights at Geckoes in the Casa Bromelia (2 times 2 bedrooms) and enjoyed a wonderful vacation despite above average rainfall. The house is new, very clean and in a very nice cultivated property in the middle of the jungle. The house is very high... more

We stayed in the 1 bedroom Bosque villa for 4 nights at the end of July, and it was more than we could have hoped for! The property is truly amazing - beautiful open space teeming with nature/wildlife and just a short drive away from some amazing beaches & restaurants. There are 4 villas (2 for rent) on the property... more
