Playa Punta Uva is within walking distance, everything else is far if you do not have your own transportation

Nice hidden family home with large porch, with beautiful kayaking trips on the river to spot animals

Beautiful bungalows surrounded by gorgeous jungle and animals. Bunglaows are clean & comfortable & have everything you need & more. Wonderful staff who truly go above and beyond 🙏 I absolutely loved my stay! ❤️

Nothing. It was a jungle home from home

The jungle, the free kayaks, sitting in the deck with my morning tea, the howlers, the beach, everything!

It would be nice to have some string for hanging your wet clothes. Since located in the forest it is very humid and the terrace rail is too thick to dry your clothes.

Amazing location right in the forest, but close to the road and walking distance to beautiful beach. The house had everything you needed. We were able to see many animals from our terrace. Amazing! Would definitely come back.

This property is gorgeous and the staff is excellent and accommodating. The bungalow was well supplied, and just a perfect place to enjoy nature and to chill out. We kayaked to the ocean and watched sloths in the trees. I would highly recommend this property.

We knew this when booking but not having AC was a small challenge though the fan really helped!

Excellent location! Just a few minute-walk to the best beach in the area and a few minute-drive to grocery stores and restaurants. Kayaking on the river was magical. We spotted sloths, turtles and an iguana along the way. All the staff and the owner were very nice and helpful.

A little too close to a road, but given the noises of the howler monkeys at sunrise and other animals, you'll be up early anyway.

Great location for one of the best beaches in Costa Rica and wonderful surroundings. The kayaks are also a must! Keep in-mind that this a jungle bungalow with no AC and surrounded by noises of all sorts of animals, so set your expectations accordingly (not for light sleepers). We had breakfast and dinners on the little patio outside in March, no issues with mosquitoes for us.

Hosts were excellent!!

The shower had low water pressure, but that’s common in that area so not really the property’s fault.

The property is lovely and the casita was comfortable and clean. The location was also great as we could easily walk to beautiful beaches within 15 minutes. I also enjoyed the lack of a tv so we could relax more into the jungle vibe.

Bed was rather small but one of us was able to use the sofa bed

Lovely setting, very comfortable. Kitchen well appointed. Appreciated the free use of kayaks.

Maybe a map of the area and local restaurants? No big deal though.

It was perfectly situated in the jungle yet close to the beach. If you want to wake up to the sound of birds, monkeys and nature at your doorstep then this is the place for you!

We really enjoyed our stay a lot. We had a beautiful little house near the river, with a hot shower and a comfortable bed, also an extra living room and a little kitchen. Could see monkeys and sloths, agutis and a lot of other different wildlife from our terrace. Free water, laundry and kayaks. Everything was really clean and only 5 min walk to the beach. Helped us with everything we needed. A tuktuk to puerto viejo takes about 10 mins. Everyone was really friendly we would def come again.

I loved the simplicity and the location of the lodge. Everything environmentally proper in the midst of nature and very close to an amazing beach. In the morning I heard the gang of Howler Monkeys - just beautiful to be part of nature at Pachamama. The host Elisa was so caring and lovely - just amazing. On my day of my arrival in San Jose she guided me from the airport to that very lovely and still affordable place which I arrived at night. The next morning she came with a frog in her hand and showed my the kayaks. One hour later, I made this breathtaking small river journey to this gorgeous beach - just amazing...

Not so central in Puerto Viejo.

Poor internet, no air conditioning

Close to the beach

The bed was horrible. If one of us moved, it shook the whole bed, making it very hard to sleep. Plus, the bed creaked anytime you moved.

All the wildlife. Kayaks for free. Friendly service.

the photos look great, however we got a bungalow that is not depicted. The house we got was dirty (kitchen floor, appliances, bedroom hammock, bathroom) and unfortunately during our stay we only saw 1 person when we arrived. did mention it to the lady on the phone who seemed nice. All in all we were disappointed.

the location is quite nice and the garden is pretty.
