Calipso is a little paradise. It’s beautiful and clear that Nico and family have put a lot of thought, love and work into the property. It’s very clean and modern. We enjoyed meeting the other guests outside our room or in the communal kitchen. It was a nice walk down to the beautiful beach. And we loved the Italian restaurant across the street!

Highly recommend staying at Calipso Lodge. I had an amazing time - walking distance to one of the nicest beaches in Guanacaste, super clean and modern rooms and the hammock on the balcony was just an added bonus. Will definitely be back!

My friend and I were blown away by how beautiful and clean the hotel was. Everything we needed was walking distance. The owners are very nice and down to earth people who went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and work hard to keep the place clean.

Good location- walkable to beach and multiple restaurants. The property is very clean and has a lot of thoughtful amenities like a hammock on the patio, a shaded second floor yoga studio, a small pool and bar for post surf lounging, and a well equipped kitchen. Plus a lot of cute decoration and landscaping! Nico the owner has been living in the area for a long time and is a super knowledgeable surfer! He went above and beyond to help us and had some great recommendations! Thank you!!
