4/10 Fair

I liked that we were the only guests there, and the breakfast was good.I did not like that the rooms were unclean, run down, not up to good standards..i could not sleep because I was afraid of bugs..we had to move 2 times due to door locks not working..first room wouldn't lock, second room we got locked out of..no A/C or TV in rooms and we had to pay extra for a room with A/C..the grounds were beautiful with much tropical landscaping, but the cabanas, cottages, pool area, were run down, in need of cleaning and painting..I would not recommend anyone staying here..was very disappointed and disgusted, would have left but I would have been charged, and lost money, so I just stuck it out the best I could..and couldn't wait to get out of there

Bungalow très bien situés. Environnement en pleine nature. Des animaux.(toucans.perroquets.grenouilles.singes hurleurs etc) Logements a rafraîchir mais corrects. Clim.eau chaude.grande terrasse .grande piscine. Cuisine équipée. A quelques centaines de mètres de Puerto Viejo. Carlos et son épouse sont très amicaux. Je reviendrai. Bon rapport qualité prix pour un bungalow(cabina) avec deux chambres

El trato del personal ha sido excepcional! Las instalaciones están un poco descuidadas. Son cabañas humildes pero tienen lo necesario (cama, ducha y toallas) y se llega andando al pueblo en poco más de 5min. El desayuno muy rico. El lugar estaba prácticamente vacío, por lo que los animales se acercaban y pudimos ver monos y un perezoso, el momento Estrella de nuestro viaje!

Dschungelcamp

Wer eine Dschungelcamp Erfahrung sucht ist hier genau richt. Einfache Hütten in einem großen Garten in dem sämtliche Tiere Costa Ricas zu finden sind. Sehr freundliche Gastgeber und die Unterkunft hat genau die richtige Lage um nach Monzanillo oder Cahuita zu kommen

Nice place to Stay

El Pizote is a very nice place to stay if you like nature, we saw a Guatusa, frogs, birds, monkeys; also there are big trees that are home of many animals. The property has a nice location at a walking distance from Puerto Viejo. I know that this property needs maintenance, but I understand that this is due to pandemic economic effect. Carlos and his Wife are great hosts.

2/10 Poor

Lo único que nos gustó fue el desayuno, que en realidad es muy bueno. No nos gustó que la propiedad está muy descuidada, comenzando por el rótulo que está en la calle principal que es tan viejo que ya no se ve, siguiendo por la entrada que no está para nada presentable, las habitaciones son super viejas y lamentablemente no les dan mantenimiento general, entonces encontramos aires acondicionados muy viejos, cortinas sucias, fachadas de las habitaciones en mal estado, jardines descuidados, piscina que necesita reparaciones, areas comunes ya muy viejas, tuvimos que ponernos alertas con el precio convenido porque nos estaban cobrando más dinero de lo acordado, tuvimos que solicitar que nos cambiaran de habitación porque la que nos asignaron tenía un olor muy fuerte a humedad y a orines de murciélago, las fotos de la propiedad que presentan en Expedia probablemente son de hace 10 años cuando el lugar seguramente no estaba tan descuidado. Definitivamente a este lugar le hace falta una inversión muy grande de dinero para arreglarlo y que funcione correctamente. Lamentablemente no recomdamos este lugar y tuvimos que quedarnos porque no teníamos más opción.

If your budget is limited, reserve here, but don't expect luxury stay, it's only for to sleep. Personnel is not friendly, and during my stay I can't use the pool but it was not full clean, maybe beacuse of the weather. However, if you are looking for something cheap with the rainforrest experience this will be the place.

el lugar considero tiene potencial sin embargo lo tienen muy descuidado, hay MUCHOS insectos como moscas, zancudos, cucarachas entre otros en los bungalows. la pileta del baño estaba muy sucia y el bungalow tenía un olor peculiar y había mucho comegen. considero pueden darle más mantenimiento en cuestión de limpieza, orden y cuidado.

Bungalow #4 had insects all over the place, mostly cockroaches which was disgusting. Last two nights were terrible because there was a bat inside the bungalow. Service wasn't good, the female host seemed to be upset for having guests and I also noticed the bad way she treated her staff members. The hotel entrance was muddy and dark. I liked the breakfast tho.

10/10 Exceptional

Overall, our stay here was excellent. We loved the little cabins with kitchenettes. It is very peaceful and beautiful as you’re a bit removed from the town of Puerto Viejo and the included breakfast is very good. The pool is nice but some of the grounds and facilities are a bit run down. This didn’t really bother us however and we were very pleased with our stay. Wifi only in the lobby, not in the cabins. Pool table and ping pong available to guests. It would have been nice if there were hammocks set up to relax in! Overall, great place!

Pésima experiencia

Hice la reservación por medio de la página de hotels.com pero cuando llegue al hotel me dijeron que la reservación nunca se hizo y me ofrecieron otra cosa más cara , pero en general todo estaba descuidado . La piscina tenía insectos y hasta un animal muerto las mesas alrededor de la piscina estaba con mojo
Ronny, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Cerca de playa negra.

El día que llegamos llovió mucho y la entrada (de la calle principal al hotel), estaba inundada, lo que dificultaba entrar y salir, la que atendía tampoco ayudó a solucionar mucho. (Al final cruzamos la zona inundada a pie varias veces) Por ese mismo motivo tampoco sirvió la piscina ya que le cayó barro. Las habitaciones son rústicas y en los baños entran insectos y otros animales. Pero los jardines son hermosos y hay mucha naturaleza, los amaneceres ahí son un espectáculo. Los desayunos son a abundantes.
Todos los días sirvieron, gallo pinto, huevo revuelto, salchichón, una tostada, jugo hecho con pulpa y café recién hecho.
Jardines.
Bungalow's.

Pura Vida Vibe

This is amazing we got to see wildlife right out of front door.The owners were really friendly and welcoming with the Pura Vida vibe. Our stay included free breakfast and coffee so that saved us a lot..is more for the eco friendly hippie vibe people and families.We truly enjoyed it.

Unique surroundings, away from busy Puerto Viejo center, abundant wildlife, super friendly staff, no stress. The rustic conditions may turn off some people but the advantages far outweigh this aspect. Individual bungalows ensure privacy.

Horrible experiencia

Mala experiencia, el hotel está en una propiedad enorme pero sumamente descuidado y antigua. El bungalow donde nos hospedamos estaba en completo deterioro, falta de iluminación, camas horribles con sabanas super viajas, cortinas diferentes para todas las ventanas, piscina turbia en mal estado y ni que decir del baño, donde había jabones usados en los tablones sin agua caliente, con huecos en las paredes. Lo más bonito fue ver animales dentro de la propiedad, el resto fue hasta el momento la peor experiencia que hemos vivido en un Hotel, máxime que las fotos no corresponden a la realidad en la que se encuentra la infraestructura por lo que se siente como haber sido estafados.
