Bukë Villa - Villas for Rent in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Costa Rica

This Airbnb was absolutely beautiful and went way beyond our expectations. We were so close to Playa Negra, an easy walk in the mornings, and just a short ride from downtown. The pictures really don’t do justice to how big and lush the greenery was this time of year during rainy season, it was absolutely stunning. My group had a great time whether we were out on the town or just hanging around the property; this is the kind of place where you can spend the whole day soaking in the surroundings and feel like you’re at your own little resort. The hosts were super responsive too, even before our trip, helping us organize transportation and giving great recommendations for activities. They were wonderful to work with. I’d absolutely stay here again if I’m back in the Playa Viejo area. It’s just such a magical place.

The place was perfect, pool was nice, town was lovely. Amazing food at all the restaurants.

The place was as shown in the pictures. There is a main house and 3 houses with a bed and bathroom. Everything was clean, and the pool was very refreshing. Communication was super easy.

Die Unterkunft war wie auf den Bilder angezeigt. Es gibt ein Haupthaus und 3 Häuser mit Bett und Bad. Es war alles sauber und der Pool war sehr erfrischend. Die Kommunikation war super einfach.

The property and location were great for our stay. We lacked nothing, and the owners responded quickly to any issues.

Die Unterkunft und die Lage war für unseren Aufenthalt super. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt und die Besitzer haben bei Problemen schnell reagiert.

Amazing spot! 
Great design, had everything we needed. 
Awesome location. We will be back!

Amazing spot! Great design, had everything we needed. Awesome location. We will be back!

We had a wonderful stay! Our host was very kind, reliable, and always easy to reach. Everything worked exactly as described, and we felt welcome from the very first moment.

We especially appreciated the smooth communication and the flexibility with our questions and requests. The accommodation was clean, well equipped, and in a great location.

Thank you for a lovely experience,we would happily come back and can fully recommend staying here!

Such a beautiful stay! The space was stylish, spotless, and in an ideal location.

As someone who runs a travel content page, I truly appreciate properties that photograph well and offer a great guest experience, and this one delivered on both. The lighting, decor, and overall vibe made it easy to capture stunning content while still feeling comfortable and at home.

Communication was seamless and proactive, check-in was smooth, and the host went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend and would absolutely return!

Wonderful spot-would highly recommend! The common space was perfect for coming together as a group. Loved the privacy of the smaller dwellings. Super cute and functional design. The tropical landscape was beautifully maintained. The location felt very safe!

Good accommodation, walking distance to a beautiful sandy shore. Everything was great and good facilities.

Gute Unterkunft, Fußläufig zu einer wunderschönen Sandtrand. Alles super und gute Ausstattung.

This was a wonderful stay. Looks exactly like the pictures and the host is very nice and responsive. Great restaurant suggestions. The short walk to the black beach is pleasant and the beach is peaceful and beautiful..and you can walk down the beach to the Argentinean restaurant. We came in via private shuttle and rented scooters to go into town and the other beaches.

Great place, just like the pictures. The sofa bed may be a bit too uncomfortable but everything else was just perfect.

We loved the privacy of each villa, as well as the social and pool area to share with the family, very good design of the space and location.

Nos encantó la privacidad de cada villa, así como el área social y de piscina para compartir en familia, muy buen diseño del espacio y ubicación.

The place was perfect for us!  There were 8 friends.  The casitas were comfy and the AC splits worked very well.  The indoor/ outdoor kitchen/ dining room was great for dinner and relaxing.  We played cards at the table and shared great meals.  We sat and watched the thunder storms until they passed. The beach was walkable and the farmer's market was close.  The drive from SJO was 6 hours, not 4; fly into Limon if you can.  The pool and amenities were everything we needed.  The Howler monkeys were so close and the we saw beautiful birds in the papaya trees! Thank you so much.

The place was beautiful. everything went perfect.  no place to charge my electric car but there was a fast charging station 20 minutes away.

It's a very nice place and I'd go back. They should be read carefully as it is an Airbnb with many rules.

Es un lugar muy bonito y volvería a ir. Si se deben leer cuidadosamente ya que es un Airbnb con muchas reglas.

Home is absolutely beautiful. Rooms are nice, beds are comfortable and have A.C. The pool area is great. Home is very close to black sand beach. You can also go walking to town. Would stay there again!

Arriving as a family (5 people), the villa initially met expectations: spacious, comfortable and quiet. However, since Monday, two adjacent villas have turned into active construction sites, with incessant noises of hammers and saws. I had read reviews of the works from 2023, but I thought they were finished. I understand that the host cannot prevent them, but at least he should warn: the area is an open-air construction site, incompatible with a relaxing stay. In my brother's room, we found an outbreak of flies that caused rashes and the need for drug treatment with cortisone and antihistamines. Once the problem was reported, we were transferred to another villa (not the one chosen, Villa Buke), where, however, we found an outbreak of flies that caused rashes and the need for drug treatment. The move cost us half a day, and to make matters worse, the new house was next to a sawmill. Insufficient support, awareness of the

Arrivati in famiglia (5 persone), la villa inizialmente rispondeva alle aspettative: spaziosa, confortevole e silenziosa. Dal lunedì, però, due ville adiacenti si sono rivelate cantieri attivi, con rumori incessanti di martelli e seghe. Avevo letto recensioni del 2023 sui lavori, ma pensavo fossero terminati. Capisco che l’host non possa impedirli, ma almeno dovrebbe avvisare: l’area è un cantiere a cielo aperto, incompatibile con un soggiorno rilassante. In camera di mio fratello abbiamo trovato un focolaio di mosconi che ha causato eruzioni cutanee e necessità di cure farmacologiche con cortisone e antistaminici Segnalato il problema, siamo stati trasferiti in un’altra villa (non quella scelta, Villa Buke), dove però abbiamo trovato un focolaio di mosconi che ha causato eruzioni cutanee e necessità di cure farmacologiche. Il trasloco ci è costato mezza giornata persa e, come se non bastasse, la nuova casa era accanto a una segheria. Assistenza insufficiente, consapevolezza dei la

Agradecemos tu reseña, ya que con ella confirmas varios de los puntos que mencionamos durante tu estadía. No obstante, consideramos importante añadir ciertos aspectos que omitiste mencionar y que son clave para brindar una visión completa de lo sucedido: 1. Ruido: Tal como indicas, el ruido ( herramientas menores) ocurrió únicamente durante el tercer día de tu estadía. Se trató de un trabajo menor, aislado, realizado en una propiedad vecina, alejada, y exclusivamente en horario diurno. Era una situación completamente imprevisible, ajena a nuestra operación, y por ende, no corresponde a tu insistente afirmación de que existen obras permanentes cerca de la Villa. Además, tu exigencia de que detuviéramos este trabajo —con una actitud prepotente e inflexible— fue totalmente fuera de lugar, considerando que se trataba de un ruido ocasional y no había manera razonable de intervenir. Este comportamiento resulta especialmente decepcionante viniendo de alguien que afirma ser también anfitrión, pues denota poca empatía y comprensión hacia situaciones fuera del control del hospedaje. 2. Moscas: La presencia de moscas fue reportada también el tercer día, lo cual confirma que al momento de tu ingreso la Villa se encontraba en perfectas condiciones higiénicas. Este hecho respalda lo que te explicamos en su momento: se trata de un brote estacional de la zona, algo que también comprobaste en el nuevo alojamiento al que fuiste reubicado, ubicado a 5 km, donde también se presentaron. Aun así, te ofrecimos recomendaciones y asistencia inmediata, poniendo a disposición al personal de mantenimiento, pero decidiste no autorizar su ingreso. Pese a ello, continuaste manifestando quejas al respecto. Es importante recordar que estás visitando una región tropical, y que este tipo de situaciones —aunque molestas— pueden presentarse ocasionalmente y están fuera del control directo de cualquier anfitrión. 3. Reubicación: En línea con el servicio que nos caracteriza y nuestro compromiso con la satisfacción de nuestros huéspedes, te ofrecimos la posibilidad de reubicación, a pesar de que la Villa cumplía a cabalidad con todo lo ofrecido en tu reserva. El nuevo alojamiento era de categoría superior y mayor valor -como te lo mencionamos- sin embargo, decidimos absorber la diferencia de precio como un gesto de buena voluntad, respetando el monto ya pagado. Sorprendentemente, al finalizar tu estadía solicitaste un reembolso de $600, lo cual consideramos injustificado y contrario al trato recibido por nuestra parte. 4. Daños y conducta inapropiada: Finalmente, omitiste mencionar una serie de situaciones que también deben ser consideradas. Durante tu estadía, se fumó dentro de una de las habitaciones, a pesar de que está expresamente prohibido, lo que implicó limpieza extra. Además, se dañó una sábana con manchas de tinta irreparables y se quebró el pichel del coffee maker. Estos daños generaron costos adicionales que, como es habitual, fueron facturados. Ante esto, tu reacción fue nuevamente ofensiva e irrespetuosa, manteniendo el mismo tono inapropiado que mostraste desde el inicio de tu estancia. En conclusión, estamos siempre dispuestos a recibir críticas y sugerencias, ya que creemos en la mejora continua y en la transparencia. No obstante, es esencial que las experiencias compartidas por nuestros huéspedes reflejen la totalidad de los hechos con honestidad y responsabilidad, para que otros viajeros puedan formarse una opinión equilibrada y justa.

Great location to unwind and enjoy the Caribbean.

The villa was absolutely perfect. A five minute walk from a black sand beach and about a 20 minute walk to town center. Me and my friends loved our stay, it was truly magical. We will absolutely be back our next time in Puerto Viejo!

A beautiful, quiet place with all the amenities and services. We had a great time! 100% recommended Extra points for the hosts who were always attentive and quick and kind to respond 😃

Un lugar hermoso, tranquilo y con todas las amenidades y servicios. La pasamos súper bien! 100% recomendado Puntos extra por los hosts que siempre estuvieron atentos y fueron rápidos y amables para responder 😃

Our stay here was very relaxing. The villas were gorgeous and perfect for my guest and I. The open floor plan in the kitchen to the outside was pure bliss. Everything was clean and the rooms were very comfortable. Walking distance to a beautiful and peaceful beach. Super close to stores and town. I highly recommend this home and i would love to stay again.

The place is excellent for a group of friends or families, as each group has its own separate bedroom and bathroom. The pool is a little small but that didn't stop us from having a great time. Definitely would come back

el lugar es excelente para un grupo de amigos o familias, ya que cada grupo tiene su cuarto y baño separado. La piscina es un pocp pequeña pero eso no impidió que la pasaramos muy bien. Definitivamente volveriamos

Very nice property, well stocked and located. My only complaint is not being made aware of the septic systems inability to handle toilet paper until after full  payment was received. I think that is something that should be on the property profile.

Gracias por su reseña Selembe! Como se le explicó, aunque no mostró disposición a entender, en la mayoría del país el sistema séptico no está diseñado para operar de esta forma. También se le indicó la importancia de adaptarse a las condiciones locales cuando se viaja a otro país y la colaboración para preservar el correcto funcionamiento del alojamiento. Este tipo de adaptación es bastante sencilla y no requiere un esfuerzo importante por parte del huésped. Por lo cual, acciones tan básicas como esta no deberían constituir una razón para emitir una reseña negativa.

A beautiful place to stay. The A/C was very nice as well as the close proximity to the beach. Host was very responsive and thoughtful! Could not recommend enough!

Villa in Paradise!! We absolutely loved our stay. Perfect for groups of friends or family because everyone has the privacy of their own bungalow. The host is extremely responsive, friendly, and proactive. We would love to come back!

Very nice villa with a beautiful beach within walking distance! The village is close and it's easy to get Tuk Tuks or rent bikes to get around!

Muy bonita villa con una playa hermosa caminando! El pueblo está cerca y es fácil agarrar Tuk Tuks o rentar bicis para moverse por ahí!

My experience at this Airbnb property was not satisfactory. Parking is outside the property, which makes it inconvenient since it cannot be accessed from the house. In addition, there is no roof between the rooms and the social area, which is a drawback. The pool is small and the location is not ideal, as it takes about 25 minutes to get to Punta Uva without traffic. On busy days, travel time is longer. We found multiple cockroaches and mosquitoes in all the rooms and the social area, which was unpleasant. The cloths shed a lot of blue lint and, although we let the host know, he never changed them for us. No visitors of any kind are allowed and we were not allowed to charge our electric vehicle. In our bathroom, the trash can doesn't fit and the lid is damaged, staying open all the time. The garbage can outside the kitchen does not close tightly, causing the garbage to spread throughout the garden. In addition, there was a lot of dust and some

Mi experiencia en esta propiedad de Airbnb no fue satisfactoria. El parqueo está afuera de la propiedad, lo que lo hace incómodo ya que no se puede accesar desde la casa. Además, no hay techo entre los cuartos y el área social, lo cual es un inconveniente. La piscina es pequeña y la ubicación no es ideal, ya que se tarda alrededor de 25 minutos en llegar a Punta Uva sin tráfico. En días con mucha gente, el tiempo de viaje es mayor. Encontramos múltiples cucarachas y zancudos en todos los cuartos y el área social, lo cual fue desagradable. Los paños desprenden mucha pelusa color azul y, aunque le hicimos saber al anfitrión, nunca nos los cambió. No se permiten visitas de ningún tipo y tampoco nos permitieron cargar nuestro vehículo eléctrico. En nuestro baño, el basurero no cabe y la tapa está dañada, manteniéndose abierta todo el tiempo. El basurero afuera de la cocina no cierra herméticamente, lo que provocó que la basura se regara por todo el jardín. Además, había mucho polvo y algun

Queremos aclarar que la molestia surgió cuando se descubrió que había conectado el auto eléctrico sin consultar previamente. Esta acción nos llevó a solicitarle amablemente su desconexión y explicarle por qué no está permitido, lo que generó incomodidad y posteriormente esta reseña injusta e injustificada. 1. La ubicación de la propiedad es excelente; la playa se encuentra a solo 400 m y el centro de Puerto Viejo a solo 3 min. Es exagerado afirmar que se tarda 25 minutos en llegar a Punta Uva sin tráfico, ya que la distancia son pocos kilómetros y fácilmente accesible. 2. Los detalles sobre el parqueo, la piscina —que tiene un tamaño ideal para la capacidad del alojamiento— y el diseño entre los bungalows son claramente visibles en las fotos que se proporcionan en el anuncio, y en ningún momento se ofrece lo contrario. Es responsabilidad del huésped revisar estas imágenes, y en caso de tener alguna duda realizar la consulta correspondiente antes de hacer la reserva para tener una idea precisa. 3. En relación con los insectos, queremos reiterar que su presencia se debió a las fuertes lluvias que habíamos tenido esos días en la zona, no a un problema de plagas en el alojamiento, tal como se le explicó a doña Marcela. Además, siempre proporcionamos insecticida, recordando que estamos en una zona tropical, donde este tipo de situaciones se pueden presentar. 4. La prohibición de visitas está claramente indicada en las reglas que se muestran en el anuncio, y es importante resaltar que la huésped indicó que eran 6 invitados los que quería recibir, sobrepasando la capacidad del lugar. Es fundamental que todos los huéspedes respeten estas normas para asegurar la comodidad de todos. 5. Sobre la basura encontrada, aclarar que fue causada por un mapache, no por un problema en el basurero. Esto es un recordatorio de que, en ocasiones, la fauna local puede afectar el entorno. 6. Antes de todo ingreso nos aseguramos de que el alojamiento quede en óptimas condiciones, pues la limpieza es primordial para nosotros y siempre nos esforzamos por mantener altos estándares de higiene y confort. 7. Finalmente, tomamos nota sobre los paños y el basurero del baño, y nos comprometemos a mejorar estos aspectos. Nuestro mayor objetivo es brindar una estadía excepcional a nuestros huéspedes así como lo hemos hecho siempre, y todas las sugerencias son bienvenidas para poder lograrlo.

A very nice place to go with a group of friends

Muy bonito lugar para ir cn un grupo d amigos

A very nice place, it meets all expectations.

lugar muy bonito, cumple con todas las espectativas.

Estancia excepcional lugar tranquilo y seguro

We loved our stay. Beautiful property  and great location.  !Highly recommended!

Nos encantó nuestra estadía. Hermosa propiedad  y excelente ubicación.  !Súper recomendado!

The apartment complex was wonderful and very clean! We had everything we needed and it was the perfect place to relax!

Of the best houses I have been to in PV. Very comfortable, very well-equipped. A spacious and very comfortable house. I definitely recommend it.

De las mejores casas en las que he estado en PV. Muy cómoda, muy bien equipada. Una casa amplia y muy cómoda. Sin duda la recomiendo.

This was our second stay, such a wonderful home and lush garden to relax in. 30 min walk along the beach to the bars and restaurants in town, nice to be a little separated from the busy spots.

The stay at the villa was great. You could easily switch off, very centrally located to the city and the beach! The kitchen was well equipped, towels and everything were changed and it was clean!

Der Aufenthalt in der Villa war super. Man konnte gut abschalten, sehr zentral gelegen zur Stadt und zum Strand! Die Küche war super ausgestattet, Handtücher und alles wurden gewechselt und es war sauber!

I will start with I would definitely stay at this location again.... if there was AC!  The place is lovely.  We really enjoyed the shared "hang out" space as we called it.  We walked to the beach; short drive to the center of town. We liked being close enough to enjoy it and far enough to leave the crowds behind.  The only thing that could improve this place - trim the trees on the sidewalks to help reduce walking into spider webs and add AC!  The area can be HOT and I know it is an open-air concept i.e. the outside is tastefully a part of the inside. so AC is not practical;  In my younger days, I would have been just fine.  But at my current age, AC is required.  This was a miss on my part and in many ways, I'm glad I missed it or I would not have stayed here. The place is beautiful and serene. Well kept and clean - sheets and towels were fresh!   The sweetest cleaning lady and a very responsive host; friendly neighbors. Overall a 5 star

Hola Colette muchas gracias por tus buenos comentarios en general de Villa Buke.. Con respecto al aire acondicionado esta claro que en Airbnb, no esta publicado que tiene AC.. Pero tiene 10 abanicos en total.. Sin embargo esta en proceso de colacarlos(AC). Con respecto a las telas de aranas es imposible eliminarlas ellas se encuentra en el ambiente son inofensivas, Buke se encuentra rodeada de jardines... Fue un placer haberlos recibido..

This was a truly incredible AirBnB experience! The whole property is so thoughtfully designed and maintained. The individual casitas create the perfect amount of privacy in combination with the beautiful and well-equipped living room/kitchen area. The landscaping is gorgeous and lush, and the small dipping pool was exactly what we needed to cool off! It is a very short walk to Playa Negra, and access to groceries and restaurants was easy nearby. Patricia was a truly wonderful host, and was so kind and responsive. I cannot recommend this property enough!

Hola Kelli..Muchas gracias por tus buenos comentarios de Villa Buke..Fue un enorme placer haberte hospedado a ti y a tu linda familia. Son bienvenidos 🤗

Patricia was a great host and communicated with me very well. We loved the area and her beautiful resort. She was helpful and accommodating and was patient. I highly recommend staying here as it is beautiful and peaceful!

Hola Irvin..me alegra que disfrutaran de Buke Villa.. Son bienvenidos.. Muchas gracias por tus buenos comentarios..🤗

It was a nice stay. Private rooms are nice for privacy Location was great, but a car is still recommended! Everything is like the pictures and very modern.

Excelente lugar para vacaciones en familia.

Hola Marcelo muchas gracias por tus buenos comentarios sobre Buke Villa.. Son bienvenidos 🤗

The only issues we had were an electrical outage in one bungalow and an electric lock issue on another.  Both times after contacting Patricia a maintenance man was promptly sent out to fix it

An excellent place, very complete, very good taste

Excelente lugar, muy completo, muy buen gusto

Muchas gracias Randall por tus buenos comentarios..

Loved the place.  Pool is a bit small. Block walkways rough to walk on barefoot but that's being nitpicky. Overall excellent and we will be back in 3 weeks.

Words can’t describe just how wonderful Patricia and her home are! The home exceeded expectations and the photos couldn’t even capture just how special it is. So peaceful. So lush! So much privacy for our group of 3. Walking distance to Playa Negra and a quick, affordable tuc-tuc to Puerto Viejo and all neighboring beach towns. Patricia was one of the best hosts that I’ve encountered on Airbnb. Always a quick message away. She helped us to arrange transportation from/to the airport in San Jose, provided local chef recommendations, came over quickly when we had an issue with the entry door, and just overall had the best, most helpful energy. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this place again and again!

Muchas gracias Brittany por tus buenos comentarios.. Me alegra mucho que disfrutaran del lugar y de las playas.. Son bienvenidas a Villa Buke..

Excellent place, well equipped, close to the beach and a couple of supermarkets , to go to Puerto Viejo you have to go in tuc tuc , Patry gave us the contact of a very kind and responsible one. Recommend the place , ideal to go with the family .

Excelente lugar, bien equipado, cercano a la playa y a un par de supermercados , para ir a Puerto Viejo hay que ir en tuc tuc , Patry nos dio el contacto de uno muy amable y responsable .Recomiendo el lugar , ideal para ir en familia .

Very nice villa, clean and pleasant, nice decoration, very well equipped kitchen, very landscaped exterior, king size bed, Patricia was very responsive and welcoming. Recommended.

Très belle villa, propre et agréable, belle décoration, cuisine très bien équipée, extérieur très paysagé, lit King size, Patricia a été très réactive et accueillante. Je recommande.

Hola Vincent..muchas gracias por tus comentarios..

The place is beautiful!! And well equipped for all the needs you may have.

Hola Kelvin...Gracias por cuidar del lugar Los esperamos ..

This place is beautiful. It's very well designed. We loved it. We traveled from the U.S. to study the language and culture with our nephew/tutor. He brought another student with him and the 3 separate villas were perfect. We each had our own space and we came together to eat and study. Patricia met us there the first day. She greeted us with a gift basket. She showed us around the house and answered any questions or concerns. We were there for 10 peaceful days. someone came to clean the pool. Someone else came to remove the trash. Someone else came to change the linen after 5 days. It was a great stay and I would recommend this villa to anyone and I'm already thinking about when we can return.

We really loved our stay u get super fast to the closest beaches if u like to and the next City Center is just 2 Minutes with the Car. The Airbnb is great and comes with everything u need, the beds are very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay. Hope to See u again!!😊

Muchas gracias Joachim..Por tus buenos comentarios del lugar..Me alegra mucho que disfrutaran de su estancia. Sean bienvenidos a Villa Buke, ustedes fueron excelentes huéspedes...

We traveled to Costa Rica with 5 adults and a 6 month old. The 3 separate buildings meant we had some privacy and the separate social room was perfect for playing games, watching TV. etc. We did a lot of cooking and the kitchen with the big island was perfect for that. Very close to the black sand beach so that we could pop "home" if we forgot anything. Made  great use of the pool. Patricia was very responsive and the whole experience was stress-free! Would absolutely book it again!

Hola Kate..Muchas gracias por tus buenos comentarios. Eso nos ayuda a seguir creciendo y mejorando. Lo tendremos en cuenta lo del cuchillo y las cucharas de madera.. Sean bienvenidos a Villa Buke.. saludos 🤗

This is the perfect place to come and stay with family. We had an amazing time. Patricia is very friendly and is an excellent host. We will definitely stay there again next time we go back to Puerto Viejo.

First and foremost Patricia was an amazing host she explained everything and made us feel at home. The property is private. A living area and three villas all to ourselves. Outdoor pool and indoor pool in large Villa. This place is amazing!!!!!

The Villa is ideal, spacious, with privacy and safe. Separation of rooms and common areas is a plus. Patricia super attentive and resolution. We hope to repeat.

La Villa es ideal, amplia, con privacidad y segura. La separación de las habitaciones y zonas comunes es un plus. Patricia súper atenta y resolutiva. Esperamos repetir.

Wow, wow, wow!! This place is paradise! It’s an absolute lovely Airbnb with every aspect you can think of! You feel like a private five star hotel! Just gorgeous 😍! We stayed here as a couple and can only recommend! Patricia is also a very lovely host!

The place is beautiful, every room separately!!  Patry was very helpful and helpful!

El lugar es hermoso, cada cuarto por separado!!  Patry muy atenta y servicial!

Excellent place to stay with the family and with groups of up to 10 people. Everything was very clean and organized and the pool is a plus. Playa Negra is very close and you can walk to the accommodation and the accommodation is easy to get around to other beaches such as Cahuita and Punta Uva. Patricia was very attentive and helpful and always responded quickly to the questions we had. In the end, a place totally recommended, I hope to come back again.

Excelente lugar para quedarse con la familia y con grupos de hasta 10 personas. Todo estaba muy limpio y organizado y la piscina es un plus. Playa Negra esta muy cerca se llega caminando y del alojamiento es fácil movilizarse a otras playas como Cahuita y Punta Uva. Patricia fue muy atenta y servicial y siempre contestó rápidamente las consultas que teníamos. En fin un lugar totalmente recomendado, espero volver otra vez.

beautiful property, super well taken care of! recommended!

propiedad preciosa, super bien atendidos! recomendado!

The place was really clean and comfortable. La Playa Negra was within walking distance. The only downside is no AC which is listed in the description.

Patricia is a great host, a person who really knows how to treat her guests. The villas are beautiful and the common area very useful to share, the pool seemed enough to us, however it is not large. To be taken into account only, vehicles sleep outside the property although it is quite safe, and in the villas it is possible to hear certain sounds between them. In general the place we highly recommend it, they will have a great time!

Patricia es una increíble anfitriona, una persona que realmente sabe como tratar a sus huéspedes. Las villas son hermosas y el área común muy útil para compartir, la piscina nos pareció suficiente sin embargo no es grande. A tomar en cuenta únicamente, los vehículos duermen fuera de la propiedad aunque es bastante seguro, y en las villas es posible escuchar ciertos sonidos entre ellas. En general el lugar lo recomendamos totalmente, la pasarán muy bien!

We enjoyed a few beautiful days in the Villa. It is a very comfortable, beautifully designed and close to downtown Puerto Viejo. Patricia took care of us with all kindness, she responded to our requests immediately and very warmly.

Disfrutamos unos hermosos días en la Villa. Es un espacio muy cómodo, hermosamente diseñado y cercano a Puerto Viejo centro. Patricia nos atendió con toda amabilidad, respondió a nuestras solicitudes de manera inmediata y con mucha calidez.

A beautiful and private place, in a very quiet area and close to everything, just to enjoy as a family. Patricia, very friendly and always willing to respond. Highly recommended!

Un lugar hermoso y privado, en una zona muy tranquila y cerca de todo, apenas para disfrutar en familia. Patricia, muy amable y siempre dispuesta a responder. Súper recomendado!,

The villa was great. It felt as if we were in paradise after a long day of sightseeing/exploring. All of us in our party had a very relaxing time. Thank you and we would definitely like to stay there again when we go back to Puerto Viejo. Awesome experience!

The place is beautiful and Patricia was an excellent hostess! We were super happy!

El lugar es hermoso y Patricia fue una anfitriona excelente! Quedamos súper contentas!

Patricia was an excellent host. The bungalows were nice and cozy. I can definitely recommend a stay in the villa buke.

Perfect place to go with family or friends, it's definitely a recommended place to use when visiting Puerto Viejo as it's near everything you need; you won't be disappointed.

A 10/20. From the place to the place to Patricia's service has made this experience a wonderful stay. The place is beautiful, a design with impeccable taste, the kitchen with everything required for the stay and a living room to share as a family. The impeccable rooms, separate from each other and conditioned with wipes for pool and regular shower, super rich beds and not to mention the Suite with the internal pool, which is the plus. The entire property is clean, the location is close to downtown Puerto Viejo (Playa Negra),  it's in a very respectful community, there's no noise at night and extra it's very safe. The only photo that is not appropriate is the garage that does not yet have the gate and the cars are on the shore of the street, although it was not inconvenient, they did not take any risk at any time, all very safe. Thank you to your hosts for such a nice welcome, their service, and their warmth in the dealings. We'll definitely be back!

Un 20/10. Desde el lugar hasta el servicio de Patricia ha hecho de esta experiencia una estancia maravillosa. El lugar es precioso, un diseño con un gusto impecable, la cocina con todo lo requerido para la estancia y una sala de estar para compartir en familia. Las  habitaciones impecables, separadas unas de otras y acondicionadas con paños para piscina y para ducha regular, las camas súper ricas y ni hablar de la Suite con la piscina interna que es el plus. Toda la propiedad limpia, la ubicación es cerquita del centro de Puerto Viejo (Playa Negra),  está en una comunidad muy respetuosa, no hay ruido en horas de la noche y adicional es muy seguro. La única foto que no corresponde es la cochera que aún no tiene el portón y los carros quedan a la orilla de la calle, aunque no fue inconveniente alguno porque no corrieron riesgo en ningún momento, todo muy seguro. Gracias a sus anfitriones por tan lindo recibimiento, su servicio y su calidez en el trato. ¡Volveremos sin duda!

Wir hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt.

Really great place. Clean with a relaxing aesthetic.

This place is as beautiful as the pictures- in a quieter neighborhood of Puerto Viejo yet walkable to Playa Negra, which is stunning! The place itself is comfy, perfect for a couple with kids. We did a lot of cooking and the social space was so comfortable to come home to in the evenings. We rented bikes, which was perfect for getting around town. For longer trips, we took a tuc tuc since taxis and Ubers are hard to find. Patri was so great- responsive, kind, and with great recommendations.

Modern Logement, neuf, three aggregable. impeccable bedding. Small pool compared to the photos. Black sand beach with waves 150 m away. little less: Noisinnage (mower, construction)

Logement moderne, neuf, tres agreable. literie impeccable. Piscine petite par rapport aux photos. Plage de sable noire, avec des vagues, a 150 m. petit moins: Voisinnage bruyant (tondeuse, construction)

This is a beautiful place. Everything is very new and thoughtful, from nice dishes to card games. The kitchen counter is great to sit at and prepare food. Sofas and beds are comfortable. Pool is amazing. Everything was very clean. A few things to note: - Behind the horizontal slats is just bug netting. This makes it very loud. Construction on 2 neighbor properties started at 7:15, which woke the neighbor dogs... It was never quiet here. This was my only major complaint, but it was a big one. - Bathroom walls only extend 3/4 of the way up. Your party can hear you using the toilet; and it doesn't feel very safe to have only partial walls in the sleeping buildings. - Outside lights turn off at 9pm and can't be turned back on. Super dark. - The maintenance guy wandered in each day without notice. Pluses: - Indoor camera has been removed, and outdoors were turned off for our stay - thank you Prospero. - Playa Negra is gorgeous! - Nearby banana market is handy. Thank you Prospero!

A thankless and unfair rating from Mike.  The property, like any other, has neighbors and as a host you cannot prevent someone from deciding to start construction at the same time....it is a right that everyone has in Costa Rica.  We made an effort to please him and help him in everything he needed and it was of little use because: 1- He qualifies that the veracity of the place is not good when there are many photos that show what the place is like and he knew that it has a tropical design for a safe zone.  2-The location is rated poorly when we are 300m from the beach in a residential area.  The noise from the neighboring construction was not excessive enough to give such a bad rating and it was out of my control.  3-Finally, it gives a bad rating to the quality of the place, when it is a place built 2 months ago with impeccable finishes.  Mr. Mike is an unfair guest who will not be easy to please no matter how hard you try.

The house is fantastic, it has a private pool, everything was very clean, it has the necessary amenities, communication was very good, we really liked the stay, restaurants and beaches nearby, we definitely recommend it.

La casa es fantástica, tiene piscina privada, todo estaba muy limpio, cuenta con las amenidades necesarias, la comunicación fue muy buena, nos gusto mucho la estadía, restaurantes y playas cerca, sin duda lo recomendamos.

The villas are very nice, beautiful design, social area (kitchen / living room) is just amazing if you travel with group of friends, idea of rooms being in a form of separate bungalows is very unique. I would give the place 4,5 stars as there are still some BUTs: 1) felt like glamping, not necessarily good or bad, depends on your taste, the construction of the houses are not whole overall, holes are covered in mosquito nets, in bathroom with nothing. It makes it unique as you feel closer to nature but can be very disturbing if you have sensitive sleep as you hear everything. 2) camera INSIDE of the common area house, felt creepy, why not outside that would be totally understandable? Also in description it says that there is no security camera on site. 3) 3rd villa is separately rented, when someone is there you don’t feel private anymore and can hear everything people talk about. 4) would better be two bungalows with double bed, no bunk beds, anyway there are only 4 sunbeds.

Ekatherina Sus comentarios nos parecen injustos, toda vez que durante su estadía nos esforzamos por complacerla en aras de que se sintieran bien durante los dias que se hospedaron. En varias o asiones se les consultó si había algo en que les pudiéramos ayudar y nos toma por sorpresa que tengan tantas observaciones para un lugar donde todos los huéspedes anteriores se sintieron a gusto. Sus comentarios no son muy positivos y lamentamos que nuestro sitio no le haya llenado el 100% de sus expectativas.

Our stay at Prosperos beautiful bungalows was just perfect. The place itself is stunning, clean and the pool was just a lovely addition. His daughter checked us in and he kindly allowed us to check in early. We were told all we needed to know and there was a very handy manual with lots of local recommendations. I would recommend renting a bicycle if you don’t have a car or quad bike as it just makes life a lot easier to get around, the beach is only a 10 minute bike ride away along with nice beach resorts and restaurants. Puerto Viejo is a 10 minutes drive away but is also very accessible by bike, this is where you will find the nightlife, shops, pharmacy ect.  The villa is perfect for spending the day in if you want some quiet time in a beautiful place and also very close to everything else. Really just wonderful. Thank you

The place was absolutely beautiful. The architect of the place was outstanding. The amenities were great and the location was private and quiet. The plants were beautiful. Place and location was GREAT. HOWEVER, the service wasn’t ideal. I communicated with the host about our arrival time. I asked if we arrived early, would that be a problem. They said no. We arrive and the other co host was there with her children in the pool. The place was not ready and she seemed startled that we arrived early. There was a man fixing the pool as well. We had to wait 30 minutes (even after check in time being at 3) for them to leave. This seemed incredibly unprofessional to me. Especially because regardless if we arrived early, the place was not ready at check in time. When we checked out, the co host entered the place before our check out time so we felt rushed to leave. Lastly, there were cameras everywhere. The co host made comments about them checking the cameras a lot. Felt uncomfortable.

Estimada Andrea Sentimos mucho leer su comentario que es muy desafortunado respecto al trato que recibió con nosotros en su estadia. Al respecto debemos indicar que desde el inicio de la reserva hubieron inconvenientes ya que ud realizó una reserva para una persona cuando eran 3 personas las que llegarían y cuando les pedimos que debian corregir la reserva para ubicar las 3 personas procedieron a reservar para 2 personas y tuvimos que pedirles de nuevo que corrigieran y pagaran para 3 personas como es lo normal en cualquier lugar, fue evidente que usted se disgusto por esa petición y sabiamos que buscaría la manera de desacreditar nuestro trato ya que nos manifestó o nos dio a entender "que le precia muy caro pagar por mas personas y que no tenian previsto gastar dinero de mas". El muchacho encargado de la piscina realiza un proceso normal de limpieza lo cual duro muy poco y no debería ser visto como una flata nuestra. respecto a las camaras...estas son para la propia seguridad de los huespedes y una vez el lugar queda sin huespedes nos permite monitorear la propiedad. Tratamos de hacer lo mejor que pudimos pero de verdad lamentamos que se haya sentido mal y crea que fuimos malos huespedes y le ofrecemos nuestras disculpas.

This is a great property. It’s brand new, well built with great taste. Everything was extra clean and the beds were really confortable. We really enjoyed our stay! Prospero is really responsive and super kind. We were traveling with our two kids (3 and 6) and the main room and pool were absolutely amazing!!! The separated buildings for the bedrooms were a bit of a challenge for us, but i see how it can be perfect for bigger kids/groups. As of January 2023, there was some heavy construction noise while we were there, but I believe this is not a permanent situation. Prospero promptly tried to find some solutions for us and it was appreciated.

The apartment is incredibly beautiful, modern and cozy, every detail has been taken care of. It is fully equipped and placed in a very quiet area with a lot of nature. Prospero is a quick service and offers an excellent service. We had a great experience, highly recommended!

El apartamento es increíblemente bonito, moderno y acogedor, se ha cuidado cada detalle. Está totalmente equipado y se ubica en un área muy tranquila y con mucha naturaleza. Próspero atiende rápidamente y ofrece un excelente servicio. Tuvimos una gran experiencia, súper recomendado!

Prospero’s bungalows are a beautiful way to relax and enjoy Puerto Viejo. The space is very private and the amenities made a great balance of stating in and relaxing with exploring all there is to do in the area. The hosts are very responsive and will make sure you enjoy your stay!
