Great beach house with direct access to the beach just across the street. Had to pay extra for the strict check-in time assigned by the host. A self-check-in procedure would be more efficient as one can never anticipate the traffic on any given day in Costa Rica. The roof to the cottage could sue some updating as there were multiple leaks from the heavy rainstorms. Location was ideal having a beach near the house and town amenities less than a mile away.

This a great family house- super location for access to the beach. Area felt really safe. House is beautiful and rustic. No screens on the windows but there are mosquito nets in the beds. The gardens are gorgeous and the open air deck and living are was lovely.

The property was very nice. Very close to the beach and close to town. We did go into town (which I enjoy) more then in previous visits due to it's location as we were farther away the other two times. The grounds were beautiful and enjoyed walking around and looking at things. Maid was very nice and really worked hard to keep it clean. We enjoyed talking to her.A couple of suggestions. Maybe another chair would be nice. The couch wasn't too useful for us. For some reason all of us found sitting in the table chairs to be uncomfortable. That was odd and I'm not sure why. Please replace the fire extinguisher. It's extremely outdated and I'm sure wouldn't work. I was told that we could call local numbers and the caretaker on the phone in the house. It doesn't work. I tried using it but got nothing, therefore my rating of contacting the caretaker. Finally, small thing but it would be nice to have a knob to be able to close the door on the front bedroom. If we weren't inside the room we couldn't get the door closed. These however did not deter our enjoyment of the house and we would likely stay there again if we return to Puerto Vijeo which hopefully we can sometime soon as we really love it there.

Great stay. So close to the beach and near the center of puerto viejo, but not in the crazy noise of town. Plenty of room for 7 people. Indoor/outdoor combined area is awesome. Definitely has bugs and was hot but ceiling fans were great and netting around the beds was helpful.
