Vacation rentals in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca

“STOP. If you are reading this review it means that you are thinking of staying in the puerto viejo area. My suggestion is stop looking and go book this apartment. I have stayed in many Airbnbs and this is by far the best. The host saw us coming up the street with our suitcases came to greet us, and assisted us to our apartment. He is the best host I have dealt with. The place was upstairs a restaurant on the Main Street but noise was not an issue. The place was clean, AC was great, hot water shower and a full kitchen Overall excellent place go, book it before it’s gone. Just want to say thanks to the host for always been super helpful”

“Thank you for your hospitality, it was so great the house and the communication and attention with you was very great. I have a suggestion for other people that wanted to go to your house, is better if you told them that they would have neighbors in the same property and that you couldn’t put any type of music because they could have problems with the neighbors.”

“What an absolutely perfect place to start our Costa Rican vacation! We didn’t do much in the way of planning transportation, so you can imagine our excitement when upon arriving by bus, we learned that the place was a mere 10 minute walk away! When we arrived we went to the bakery and were welcomed and walked up to the apartment. As others have noted, the beach is right across the street, as is one of the best surf breaks in Puerto Viejo. You can easily walk into town to the supermarket, local clothing/Costa Rica shops, restaurants, and street vendors that set up jewelry every night (that we were there at least!!). We rented bikes next door and cruised south to Cocles Beach (Don’t miss the trail! Beautiful walk through enchanting nature right on the beach), as well as Punta Uva beach which also had a path through an enchanting forest. The apartment itself was very clean, had ample towels for beach and shower, and the owners were so so nice! Also, the staff at the bakery is so sweet and was very accommodating when we told them we were staying upstairs (15% off!). I highly recommend this place, especially if you are new to the area. It was SO EASY, and everyone was SO nice!!”
