Caribe Town Bungalows

My boyfriend and I stayed at Caribe Town for 4 nights and absolutely loved it. It was the exact Costa Rican paradise we were hoping for — super relaxing and just the right vibe for our vacation. It’s just outside of downtown Puerto Viejo, so it’s peaceful but still an easy walk to tons of restaurants and beaches. The location couldn’t be better. The pool was awesome — honestly more refreshing than the ocean some days — and the beach across the street was basically empty and beautiful. The hotel is family-owned and you can really feel the love and care in everything they do. The whole property is full of wildlife — we saw sloths, lizards, butterflies, and birds without even leaving the grounds. The jungle landscaping is gorgeous. We added on breakfast every morning and it was totally worth it. Super tasty, laid-back, and came with coffee or tea, fresh juice, and fruit — the perfect way to start the day. At night we hung out at the bar and had such a good time chatting with Joel, Yanis, and Mel. On our last night, Joel made us the best piña colada we had in Costa Rica — and we tried a lot of them! Huge thanks to Karilily, Joel, and the Caribe Town family for making our stay so special. We hope we get to come back someday!

The apartments and bungalows were spacious with comfortable beds, we had three of them. The owners setup our tours and our Rondon cooking class as well as the transportation to and from. We enjoyed the pool right next to the bar. The staff was very personable and went above and beyond the entire stay. You’re off the main road so no road noise and only a two minute walk to one of the best beaches around. There were a couple of sloths, agoutis, dart frogs, toucans and howler monkeys on the property. I will definitely stay again and recommend to anyone.

Everything about our stay was perfect. From the comfortable and charming accommodations to the wonderful staff. Natalia and Justine made our visit wonderful. Our daily breakfast was absolutely great, and the guest fridge and honor bar are great additions. We loved the location and thought “ our beach” was one of the best. We cant wait to return.
