A one-bedroom cottage for two on a 25-acre wildlife preserve in El Jobo, with kayaks, birdwatching, and a private road to South Coyotera Beach. Walk to the shore and nearby restaurants.
The Space
Reserva Los Congrejos is a 25-acre wildlife preserve located just 200 meters from Coyotera Beach. The property is bordered on three sides by a tidal estuary and hosts over 50 bird species. A private road on the premises provides direct access to South Coyotera Beach.
The area is frequented by white-faced, howler, and spider monkeys. Early morning walks offer a good chance to spot these local primates. Although the water at Coyotera Beach appears murky, it supports a variety of fish species and attracts fishing birds such as pelicans, seagulls, and frigatebirds.
Location
The preserve is situated along a secluded jungle path, just a 10-minute walk from Coyotera Beach. Nearby neighbors are dairy farmers who sell milk, cheese, and other dairy products directly to the public. Their cows often visit the property weekly, helping to manage the grass growth.
Despite its secluded setting, several restaurants are within walking distance:
- Nandel Resort: Open to the public, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with a swimming pool.
- Naked Indian Restaurant: Offers gourmet cuisine and live music on Friday nights.
- Bar Pirata: A local spot popular for nightlife.
On the Pacific Ocean side, Playa Rajada is a well-liked public beach featuring approximately 25 shaded parking spaces. Close to Rajada Beach, Playa Pillas is a unique, secluded beach composed of polished pebbles and surrounded by volcanic hills.

An extremely quiet environment surrounded by nature. You can feel a great sense of peace and tranquility. It is very well located because it is very close to many beaches, and there are supermarkets nearby. We were pleased with the stay, and we will definitely be back.

Timothy's place is very peaceful and the lodge has all that you need with good WiFi also. Tim & Mary very friendly and so to are the locals. The beaches are beautiful, especially Rajadita but of course difficult to reach without transport. Tim has lots of friendly dogs which was nice.

The place is very welcoming, very close to the beaches, restaurants, and shops where you can buy things to cook or eat out if you prefer. The hosts, Timothy and Mary, are always very attentive to your needs, very kind, and always looking out for their guests. The place is very clean, and you can hear the birds in the mornings. If you're looking for a quiet place close to the best beaches in the area, this is the ideal place I highly recommend it. Ana
