We stayed here for three nights and felt well rested when we left. We thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you for an awesome stay and the mangoes! I can't add anything more than what is already written in the other reviews on tripadvisor.

Biked past this place when I was spending time in Cahuita a year ago. It's so tucked away, I assumed it was private property. Lol. Well after spending 6 days in Cahuita on a return visit this year (and having to consider some less expensive options for lodging), my husband and I decided to look into some places, and discovered...

Piscina Natural is an incredibly lush ocean-front garden space with little bungalows tucked inside. The space is magnificent -- teeming with wildlife, backing right up to the ocean, and complete with a natural tide pool perfect for wading and relaxing. There is a wonderful outdoor area with hammocks and a gazebo for relaxing by the crashing waves. The rooms are... More

Patty and Walter are warm and welcoming. We appreciated the well maintained gardens and the relaxed way they handled paying for our visit (you just write your name down for any drinks you take and pay at the end). Beautiful setting. It is out at the end of town, which isn't a long walk for going in for dinner, but... More

What can I say about this place(more about slothe father down) and its caretakers/owners.If you are looking for a place to immerse yourself into the Costa Rican culture this is the place to be. I arrived with no reservation but determined to stay there no matter I had spotted this place on yahoo pics..I was not disappointed Patty welcomed me... More

I was surprised to discover at my arrival that this is not a hotel as I imagined. It is a lodge, with bungalows. I rated as average for a bungalow. If rating as a hotel (as stated in their website), rate will be lower. You can make use of the kitchen to prepare your own breakfast and meals. Shops are... More

We were welcome by the charming Patty who showed us around, luckily enough, the whole place was empty and Patty was really cool with conditions. The place is very nice and relaxing, the Piscina Natural isn't the best spot to go in the water, I mean don't go to piscina natural for the "Piscina Natural". But the playa negra is... More

Our stay at Piscina Natural was less like renting a room at a hotel and more like visiting friends at their awesome beach property. Patty was incredibly sweet and helpful: when I asked if I could eat a starfruit that had fallen off the tree near our hotel, she went and got me a fresh one - and some water... More

We went to Cahuita after spending a couple nights in a noisy hostel in Puerto Viejo and wanted something more peaceful. The hotel is a little bit of a walk out of town but you can get a taxi at the grocery store or hitch a ride like we did...totally worth the effort! Patty and Walter were fantastic--Walter has been...

Very cool natural swimming area, creating by old coral formations. Hammocks in the back yard with views to the ocean, amazing! Walter let us chill on the back patio and drinks were in the fridge, pay on the honor system. Rooms were quaint, but good. I'd highly recommend this to folks on a budget and looking for privacy.
