My wife and I enjoyed dinner at Koki Beach while in Puerto Viejo. The restaurant is open air and is across the street from the bay. They have a great spot as you enter to stop and have drinks- happy hour spot. This has an eclectic array of chairs and tables set up to accommodate small groups of people. Our... More

I took my partner here for her birthday dinner, where we watched the sunset over spectacular mojitos and piña coladas, calamari and plates of shrimp on rice. All of these things were really good, but if i had to go back for one thing only, it would be for their drinks. And the calamari. (OK, that was two things.) I'm... More

I have been there in March 2013 and I have to say, a really, really great place to be. You will expect a large selection of cocktails, very fresh prepared. The atmosphere is comparable with a fashion bar in a big city, like Miami, very urban! A nice and friendly staff is working there too and the owners are always... More

At first sight, we sort of wondered whether this place would be out of our budget. We walked in and took a look at the menu. Despite it´s upscale looks, the prices were very competitive and we certainly had a very fine dinning experience certainly worth more then the bill. We came in a bit early for the happy hour... More

Nothing negative about this place. Great food. we had the yuca chips and guac, and calamares for starters. Sizes were a bit big so we may have just one ap next time for us four. The house red in a carafe was better than expected. We tried the fish curry and banana in a box for dessert. Place is very... More

We were a group of 5 girls vacationing in Puerto Viejo. If you're out and about at night, I highly recommend this place. First, it was SO nice and very very comfortable for an open-to-the-outside joint. Second, the staff was incredible and accommodating. The manager, Hugo (sp) was so nice and checked on us regularly. Third, the drinks were fairly... More

Stopped here for dinner on our last night because we saw it was always busy. Found out why, great service and excellent food.

We went for a happy hour drink and ended up staying for some delicious ceviche. Koki Beach has a trendy vibe, which sets it apart from the more rustic feeling of most of the other places in town.

We stumbled upon this restaurant when another place we wanted to visit was closed. It looks quite fancy compared to other places we saw in Puerto Viejo. I felt more like I was in a bar in Miami than in Costa Rica especially after ordering a steak with mashed potatoes and vegetables. The steak was delicious - really well prepared... More
