The heat inside the ‘dome’ is intense mid-day and A/C at that time doesn’t help much. Just plan on being out doing things at that time. If they could make the bed more stable and get a slightly thicker mattress it’d be perfect.

Felt remote even though we were just minutes from town. Fun experience to stay in something so different. All the amenities you’d need. Owners were amazingly helpful and sweet. Had good local info. The property has some really cool features and is perfect for a romantic couples trip.

There was absolutely nothing I didn't like!

I loved everything about Cocolhu, the hosts were such kind and caring people and my stay was absolutely unforgettable. I had the most incredible time staying here, everything was comfortable, beautiful, and all necessities were present! I wish I stayed longer, I've never had a better and more unique experience staying anywhere else. Thank you Cocolhu!

I loved staying at Cocolhu. Waking up to the sound of birds and howler monkeys was an amazing experience. The views from the deck and viewing terrace were incredible! The Wi-Fi was solid and the property was just far enough from town that you felt removed from the hustle and bustle but close enough to access all the amenities if you wanted to. Javi and Kelly were amazing hosts and you can tell that they want to make sure you have the best experience while visiting.

The access road is quite rough, so make sure your vehicle has high clearance, but the location is worth it

Loved the unique set up with separate spaces for cooking, sleeping, lounging, star gazing ++ and VERY private and spacious

Javi and Kelly were very welcoming and we were pleasantly surprised with the attention to detail in every aspect of our stay. We also liked the sense of privacy and cleanliness.

Pleasantly surprise by how clean this location was considering that it is in the middle of the jungle. Hosts were very friendly, welcoming and informative. Couldn't have asked for better.

It was a bit difficult to park, and the lock system was stressful. Getting in and out was a process that often took 5-10 minutes, even after knowing what to do. Getting the lock to fit should be easier.

Loved the host's friendly dogs and amenities provided.

We liked everything!

The dome is very cool and the fact of being isolated made of our trip a relaxing and peaceful experience.

Nothing to complain. Just don't recommend for people that travel without car because you'll need it to move from the property to the beach.

The property is really private, a great experience for couples that wants to run from the crowds and the neighbors. Definitely the best choice we could have at Tamarindo. Facilities were amazing and the owners really took care of that place.

We stayed here for 2 weeks and had an amazing time. Serenaded by monkeys in the morning and evening it was a secluded stay away from the bustle of the main tourist areas. The owners were amazing and friendly. We received excellent suggestions on where to eat and go. If you are up for the experience of glamping this is the perfect opportunity.

nothing bad to say but it is Costa Rica so there will be bugs so be ready for that!

such a beautiful private space. felt like luxury camping near the beach with great amenities and gracious hosts

every thing was great.

We booked Cocolhu because we wanted to experience the nature and wild life of Tamarindo and is was for sure a good choice. Cocolho is the best glamping facility in Tamarindo. The place is very well equipped and exceeded our expectations. The sunset and sunrise was spectacular. It was a little rainy and we sat under the stars in the rain and enjoy the nature and sounds of the several animals around. At 4:30 AM we started hearing the monkeys and birds and that was a unique experience. The owners live close by and are very friendly and helpful. If you have to reach the location you can better take the route from Tamarindo, because it is better assessable, especially in rainy season. You don't need to worry about food in case you don't want the leave at night because you can order from a great variety of restaurants. You can also book Yoga classes and massage. If you are staying for short term you can arrange also in advance. Just contact the property owners and let them inform you or guide you. We had a very unforgettable great stay in Cocolhu. We recommend this location highly.

We actually checked in but didn’t stay our 2 nights here because we found roaches inside the dome. We’re fine with there being some spiders and bugs in corners and stuff, but roaches are a big no no for my girlfriend. It is what it is- some people may be fine, some may not. But we expected the area inside the dome to atleast be pest free. Besides that, the other things we didn’t like: Bathroom is a bit annoying to access at night, especially with bugs on the outside and the top is partially open so it’s a little annoying to shower as bugs can get in. Stairs to get to the camp/terrace are very steep and shallow width, so need to be very very careful not to slip. This may be on me but I thought there was a hot tub but turned out to just be a pool (not sure if advertised as pool, maybe my bad) Lastly, the gate is a pain to work with, so if you plan to be in and out a lot with your car, keep that in mind (needs to be unbolted, unlocked, locked etc)

Kelly and Javier are great, very nice hosts. The dome is very cozy and cute. The hosts are great at giving a tour of the place and make you feel at home. Overall I think the price is good for what it offers and the hosts are very sweet.
