Studio in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca

Roxy

Excellent, 1 year ago

The place is beautiful. It has very beautiful beaches nearby. The host was very nice and flexible. We felt so comfortable. Everything was clean and according to the description. We'd love to come back ✨🦥🌿

We had a great time at Nahuel's place. The surrounding is beautiful and a short walk gets you to the beach or into the forest with some sloths and monkeys. The monkeys also greet you every morning with their sounds. We took a tuktuk from Puerto Viejo which cost 4000 colones. We also rented a scooter nearby which was great to get around. However, there are many great restaurants in walking distance. Also, Nahuel was very helpful with the questions we had. We would definitely recommend this place!

I came to PV for a week of wellness classes so the bungalow was my "home base" for food, sleep and bathing. It was perfect for what I needed as a solo traveler. The kitchen was equipped with plenty of utensils and cooking equipment. There were no basic staples (oil, salt, etc). so if you plan to cook make sure you make a stop at the grocery store. I loved the outdoor shower! The bed was fairly comfortable and although it is a smaller, rustic accommodation I felt clean and cozy here. Nahuel was very communicative and helpful. Two things I wish I knew was that it is directly off the main road, as well as next to a big hotel, so there is noise at different times of the day. There are also other dwellings right on the property only some 10-30 meters away, so privacy is not optimal. However this did not impact my time here as I was not here many hours of the day. Wifi worked great and there's plenty of things (restaurants, grocery stores, bakery, bike rental) within a 15 min walk

Convenient walk to beach and to a few restaurants. WiFi was good and host was quick to respond. Refrigerator worked very well and shower was outside and very private with great hot water. We did get to hear and see a lot of howler monkeys. Thank you Tobias!!

The host is really responsive and the house is in very good conditions, next to one of the most beautiful beaches within walking distance. The house is not in a private property though, you do share space with two other near by houses,it made it lose a bit of privacy but other than that, it’s a very well equipped and clean space. The location is perfect. They hosted our two border collies just fine and the wifi was super stable even for working situations. Perfect for 1 or two people max.

My partner and I stayed at Nahuel’s place for a month in October and we’re so thankful we did! It was exactly as described and very close to a secluded beach. It is located in a very safe area. There is a mini mart 10 min walk away, but you will definitely need a bike or preferably a moped to get around. P.V. is about a 10 min drive away. Any questions or issues we had, Nahuel was always quick to respond and so nice. He was super helpful and answered/fixed everything! This is someone you want as a host! Both my partner and I worked from home while we were there. The wifi was good as described. A little slow for what we’re used to in the states of course but we are in Costa Rica. There was amazing wildlife all around - including bugs. This is out of the hosts control but if you haven’t been to a tropical place before be prepared for mosquitoes. Overall, best stay ever. Thank you Nahuel + Vanessa! Come to this place! We will be back for sure. :)

It's a small house (cabin/chalet) close to a veeeery beautiful beach (2 minutes walk). The only problem is that there are lots of mosquitoes (I mean A LOT) so it's good to have a strong repellent!

Host Response

There’s a lot of mosquitoes in the Caribbean, specially with so much nature and rain, there’s only so much we can do. But that’s why we have a mosquito net and it’s advised to close windows and doors at night, also we could provide a mosquito lamp if you had problems with mosquitoes I recommend you to communicate more and ask for anything to make your stays more comfortable, you didn’t communicate with me at all until the last day Using a repellent is something that’s up to you, specially if you’re more sensitive to mosquitoes
