What a great place. My girlfriend and I stayed at the end of August in 2005 for about 6 days. The place is fantastic. There is a pristine empty beach directly across the street!
It is out side of the bustle of Puerto Viejo but close enough to walk. The rooms are quite nice. No frills. Very clean. The grounds are beautiful! We saw plenty of indigenous wildlife on the property. Howler Monkeys come right down to the grounds in the AM.
The food is fantastic and well priced.
The staff is amazing!! Two brothers run the place and they do a grand job.
I will be staying there again this February and I'd recommend it to any traveler who is not into resorts.

    • Liked — the service, location, food, everything!!
    • Disliked — some sort of crazy bird waking us up at 4am.
    • Tips/Secrets: — Captain Zero is a kick! Look for him in the bar but don't waste your money. Talk to the people at Cafe Rica for that.

well, I went as a student in a group of 14. The hotel was completly empty the night we got there, yet they had all of us five girls far from the rest of the group, we were supossed to be in number one and the rest of the group was in the twentys, far down and away from us. The trip sponsor threw a fit, and finally they moved us, but it took a lot to get them to accomadate us. The room they moved us to was dirty, the shower didn't work, and the bed spread was covered in something red and dried, I tried not to think about what it might be. The food was really good though, they had a lot of traditional american food, which I really appreciated, as dild my stomach. And the cleaning staff was fairly friendly, they cleaned our rooms the next day, and made a really cool arrangement with flowers and towls, and the tip jar........I guess the place wasn't that bad, the beds were really comfortable and except for our shower not working, all was fine. If you go, don't get room 18!!!!!! I would suggest one of the bungalos, for the short time we were in there, they looked really nice!!! And number one has a double bed and across the kitchennet was a room with two sets of bunk beds for like a family. It was nice for the whole twenty minutes we were in there.
