I went with my husband on a romantic trip and could have never been so lucky to find this jem in the exotic Costa Rican caribbean !! The bungalows are perfectly built inside the jungle only feet away from gorgeous Cocles beach, I was impressed with the exotic architecture resembling the Flinstones, and the privacy of each bungalow is key...

I stayed here with my girlfriend and we really enjoyed the bungalow. It was modern but rustic and clean, exactly what we wanted. It had a spacious porch with hammock and table. The restaurant was large and the food was good. Everything on the grounds was well maintained and the staff was friendly and informative, they set us up to... More

So this was the first place I've ever traveled to that looks like the picture online!! good start. The staff was amazing, very friendly, super accommodating. We got sick from the water while we were there and they made us special meals and teas and checked up on us, which would NEVER happen at an American establishment. We weren't sick... More

We did have to move you around a bit due to prior reservations and we really appreciated your patience with that. You may have set a new record for 'most bungalows... More

When you think of Costa Rica, you can see La Costa de Papito in your mind!! It is surrounded in beautiful tropical landscaping, and the all wood bungalows are designed perfect. There are canopy draped beds (you could need them, we didn't), room size walk-in showers. There is a porch with table and chairs, and an hammock. The owners live... More

Did not stay at hotel, but ate at the restaurant twice. Everything was fresh and well=prepared. Prices were very reasonable considering the quality of the food. The restaurant was built with gorgeous exotic woods, It's pretty much open air and at the edge of a rain forest. Especially nice at night with the landscape lighting. Can't wait for my next... More

I stumbled upon La Costa de Papito several years ago and have returned several times since. I just stayed there again this past week and I swear, each time the experience just gets better and better.

My 13 year old son chose this unique place as part of his Make-a-Wish trip. He wanted to see the rainforest and jungles and see monkeys and sloths. He didn't want a "foo-foo" hotel. He wanted to stay in a cabin in the jungle. This really fit the bill. We felt like we were really far from civilization, yet all... More

We spent 3 nights there. The bungalows are fantastic, very clean and in the middle of a nice garden. In the morning you can enjoy the butterflies in front of the bungalow. Breakfast is extremely good. The restaurant is also very good. You can also get beach towels from the hotel. Wifi works everywhere. Great place!

We spent 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed this unique lodging expereince. As a woodworker, I was fascinated with all of the wood used in the construction. Yes, I have slept on better beds and the ergonomics of the bathroom sink could have been improved. However, my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the ambience, privacy nd location.
