Casa Jeffrey | House with Pool, Steps to Beach
Very relaxing beautiful place

Siwõ Puerto Viejo 2
This is an excellent stay as it offers lots of comfort, impeccable cleaning and a convenient location. Your room is cozy, well equipped and with details that ensure a pleasant stay. Sebastián gives a very pleasant experience to his guests. Highly recommended if you want to visit the Caribbean.

AC-Private Pool-Dishwasher-Walk to Beach
Excellent place. Very welcoming, with everything you need for a quiet, pleasant and fun stay. Great for group of friends or family. Too close to the beach and with easy access to downtown and other beaches. Communication with Kathleen and her work team was always accurate and very simple. Great choice.

Villa Aragon-Private Villa AC. Beach Access + Pool
This place is absolutely incredible. Clean, comfortable, and a great gathering space for family. We LOVED the pool and outdoor area, made dinners and slept well in the cozy beds. The walkway to the beach is extremely convenient but sooo magical!!!! I loved the black sand beach and enjoyed laying in the sun with just a short two minute walk back to the house. Muchísimas gracias!!

Just a few steps from the beach | A/C & WiFi
We had a wonderful time. The place was comfortable, spacious, beautiful, private and modern. Kitchen had all utensils needed. We were able to see and heard birds, and monkeys. The best was a little walking distance from a peaceful, beautiful beach. Cinzia, was quick to respond and answered all our questions, so kind and helpful. We just loved her place and we are planning to came back again 🌸❤️🌺 Pasamos un tiempo maravilloso, El lugar es cómodo, Espacioso hermoso y privado. La cocina tenía todos los utensilios necesarios. Pudimos ver y oír pájaros y los monos. Lo mejor de todo es que la playa estaba a una distancia muy corta nos íbamos caminando. Cinzia fue tan amable, nos contestaba las preguntas inmediatamente nos daba solución a con lo que necesitábamos.. definitivamente planeamos en volver. Extremadamente recomendable. Lilly y Daniel

Exclusive Luxury Home between the Sea and Jungle!
Casa Nayala was absolutely stunning! We throughly enjoyed our stay! It has everything you need and one more. We wish we would’ve extended our vacation to enjoy it more! The pictures don’t do this place justice it is beautiful. Check in was a breeze and they will give you resources to the restaurants (great food) and things to do to navigate the island ! We are fairly new to Air BnB ing but this one has exceeded our expectations! A friend recommended this place to stay and it didn’t disappoint! Peaceful , calming , relaxing retreat nestled in the jungle with a brief walk to the Playa Negra beach = PARADISE 🌿

Villa Milá - Private Pool - 100 Mbps
This was a great place to stay in Puerto Viejo. The walk into town was less than 2 miles. We didn’t have a car and were fine walking and using taxi services. The house was super nice and clean. The hosts were very responsive, friendly, and helpful. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to travel in this area!!

King of the Mountain ~ Beach & Jungle Experience ~ bglw1
As other guests have written, I wish I could live here. The bungalow was exactly as pictured/described, and it gave my partner and I a comfortable and peaceful place to lay our heads every night. The property is lush with vegetation and attracts a variety of amazing creatures like frogs, geckos, hummingbirds, butterflies. We loved waking up to the sounds of toucans and montezuma oropendolas and falling asleep to the sounds of crickets and bugs. It is truly is the jungle cabina of our dreams. David is a wonderful host. He communicates clearly and responds very quickly. We didn’t need anything during our stay, but he messaged us in the middle of the week to check in which we really appreciated. For future guests: I HIGHLY recommend renting an ATV from David for your stay. The bungalow is on a mountain, and to walk up and down the long, steep road would have been a lot had we not gotten the ATV. Not only is the ATV fun, but it allows you to get up and down the hill safely and quickly.
