Отель Casa Raiz, Пуэрто Вьехо, Коста-Рика

I loved everything! The setting is exceptional - there is no better place to hear and see the full spectrum of the jungle activity day and night. The new argentinian owner, Gonzalo, is fully dedicated to making this place an unforgettable experience for everyone. I especially appreciated all the eco-friendly touches he added to the main building. He is very consciencious and knows Costa Rica inside out. And If you don't usually like bunk beds, give this a try: the high wooden roof make the rooms feel very spacious, and the upper bunk is next to the windows screen and the jungle outside, with a net, privacy curtain, reading light and fan. Top confort. The general vibes of the hostel were chill, and guests were all happy to extend their stay. As a plus, the best grocery store in the region is just down the road.

Nature, owners are friendly and welcoming, sleeping like a baby in the jungle, vibes

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.

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at. The owner, Gonzalo, really puts his soul into this place and you can see it in tiny details like night sky projectors in every room. I will happily stay here again if I come back to Puerto Viejo.

We had a great time at Smile Jungle Hostel :) The owner is really friendly and did everything to make our stay as pleasant as possible. At first, we booked for 3 nights and then we extended for one more week because it's fantastic! The breakfast is very nice and made with love. I love the chilled, non-party vibes, the cinema evenings with the lovely projector, and the surroundings full of animals and jungle sounds. Highly recommended!
