Add a nice and VERY helpful owner, who welcomes you with a cool pipa and who agreed to keep our lugguage while we're... More

Nothing fancy but clean, comfortable and air conditioned, and the rooms are all newer. The outdoor area / shared kitchen was a lovely surprise. Mark is a terrific host. You won't regret staying here, especially for the price.

Just five brick cabins of varying sizes, all air conned which is a must in PJ! Basic but very clean with towels and soaps. Although categorised as a B&B on Trip Advisor breakfast isn't available but the covered ourdoor kitchen area is a pleasure to make your own food in - and a great spot for bird watching and for...

Awesome place with one of the most helpful owners you could meet. Mark will tailor your needs from fishing to tours in the park. Get the best of value for your time here. Clean room, open shared kitchen attractive gardens and be visited at the bird feeder while you relax in the hammock.

This was our third trip to Puerto Jimenez in the last four years, and we looked forward to trying out Captain Mark Corn's new inn. Though this place is not on the water it is in a fenced tropical garden and that was a bonus because of the beautiful colorful plants and birdlife that guests may enjoy. White stucco rooms... More

Rooms: Good sized rooms that are pretty basic (no tv) but are very clean, have A/C, and include a dresser/wardrobe (we traveled through Costa Rica and you'd be surprised but many hotels don't even have basic furniture in the room to put your stuff or hang your clothes on at this price point). Bathrooms are also clean and include hot... More

We read about 'Cabinas Tropicales' and felt compelled to see for ourselves. Truth be told, it's better. The garden is amazing, the rooms are super tidy and roomy. The area is quiet and very down to earth. The kitchen is an absolute plus and meeting point! All that for 35-45$. i've spent some nights in some very shabby places for... More

Great place to stay in Puerto Jim. Mark was helpful with organizing our trip, storing our baggage when we went into the park overnight, and a great host while we were there. The shared outdoor kitchen is well-equipped and has storage space for guests' food. Rooms large, clean, and bright, with quiet air conditioning. Lovely courtyard with hammocks and full... More
