Guest Houses in Cahuita

What an amazing location, right across the street from the beach. ,Super friendly staff that made us feel very welcomed! Everything was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Delicious breakfast served with great coffe and bread. Great place to stay when visiting Cahuita. We will definetly return in the future.

Well designed, bright, spacious rooms, with both a purified water dispenser and coffee machine. Lovey individual sitting area/deck with comfortable furniture outside each room. Restaurant was excellent. Especially liked the deck overlooking the sea. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

It was absolutely perfect! Many thanks for their warm welcome and kindness. I can only recommend this place – it’s superbly located, spotlessly clean and well-equipped. 😊

Fantastic relaxed option between Puerto Viejo and Cahuita. Great to meet other travellers also.

Vladimir was a wonderful host, the position was amazing and the room very comfortable. There were two fans in the room so we had no problem with the hot weather.

Gonzalo is a really nice host who makes the best breakfast and always gives good tips on how to get around the area and what to do there. The Hostel is really nice in the middle of the jungle which makes staying there already half the experience.

I really liked that it was close to everything also the owners were really nice.

Amazing location right in the forest, but close to the road and walking distance to beautiful beach. The house had everything you needed. We were able to see many animals from our terrace. Amazing! Would definitely come back.

We loved it here so much we extended our stay from 3 to 8 nights. There is a lovely atmosphere here and the hosts were very welcoming. I had injured my foot when I arrived. Kim gave me some cream for it and helped me to get an xray for it. The proximity to the national park is awesome. We went most days and then spent the late afternoons relaxing in the pool. The kitchen is clean and well equipped. There are various comfortable seating options in the common area indoors and outdoors. The bedrooms are spacious and there is shelving and hanging space for clothes. The AC worked perfectly and hot shower was a luxury we haven't had for many weeks. Kim is very knowledgeable about activities in the area as well as where is best to spot wildlife in cahuita and in the national park. Our stay here made us fall in love with Cahuita and it was definitely a highlight of our Costa Rica trip.

What a gem of a place. Cute family cottage (2 separate rooms, a double bed in one and a bunk in the other - single upper and double bed lower). There are numerous sloths in the garden, often active and often at quite low level. Having been on numerous hikes previously on our Costa Rica holiday to see sloths that ended up being just grey fuzzballs high up in a tree that needed a guide’s scope (and experienced eye) to spot, it was a delight to be able to see them just outside our door, usually at a height that didn’t strain the eyes and neck and also meant that a simple phone photo could capture with reasonable success. There was even a mother and baby - cuteness personified, which we were able to observe whilst enjoying the famous and delicious Brigitte’s Ranch breakfast. The beach is a spit away - strong currents, so be careful. It isn’t a huge beach and not very wide, but it is fine. And about 15 min walk to the north is Playa Grande which is empty and stretches for miles. The reggae bar is next door - we enjoyed the Caribbean vibes and enjoyed a couple of drinks there. It doesn’t come highly recommended for food, but there are many other good eateries within walking distance - La Playa was particularly good for coffee, ice creams and a snacky bite. And Puerto Viejo is a short drive away, which also has many restaurants and a more lively night culture than Cahuita. Brigitte offers various tours - eg night tour, chocolate tour, medicinal plants etc. But we had already done much of that stuff on our trip. We did go for the horse riding tour - the 3rd one we have done on our trip, and far and away the best. Her horses are clearly well cared for, great to ride, respond to the rider well, and the 2.5 hour hack through the jungle and cantering over the beach sands was simply magical - in spite of the incessant rain. Great for more experienced riders. If you are limited for time in Costa Rica, then you can get such a rich experience staying at Brigitte’s Ranch.
