10/10 Exceptional

Amazing host
The stay was amazing. The host was wonderful and helped us organize dinner reservations and tours. He was very helpful. The rooms were very clean along with the whole property. The breakfast was wonderful and he was very accommodating to our large group. There was a lot of wildlife we saw from the common area including many birds and monkeys. It was a wonderful place to stay.

Great location, awesome find.
Everyone was very friendly and helpful. They helped us register for a tour on short notice, and went above and beyond to help us have a great trip.
James, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We really appreciated that Norlyn arranged a taxi to take us to and from the airport. When it worked in his schedule, he also drove us down to the beach to catch the boat for one of our excursions, though the walk from Las Cabinas to the beach wasn't far at all. The breakfast served was amazing and the dining area was great for looking out to watch the birds.
Hilary, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great value and helpful host
Norlyn met us on the beach when our boat arrived and gave us a ride to his B&B. Comfortable and clean room. Common area has a shared refrigerator. On our second day we had an early departure for Corcovado and Norlyn served us an early breakfast and gave us a ride with our luggage. Great value!

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great stay at Cabinas Pura Vida. We appreciated the hospitality and reliability of our host, who picked us up at the beach and gave us helpful recommendations and instructions. The cabin was clean and everything is in walking distance. We were very satisfied and can only recommend to stay there. Thanks once more, Norlyn!

Staff was extra friendly and helpful. There's a good panaderia close by. You're just far away from the town center that it's quiet, but still convenient.

8/10 Very good

Super warm welcome. Lovely terrace with nice green view; we chilled in the hammocks with a book. Kitchen available for those wanting to cook. Very clean and basic accommodation. Nice ambiance.
Christopher, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A good stay
My room was clean, but slightly musty smelling. The AC worked well and the bed was sufficiently comfortable that I had no trouble sleeping. Like many hotels in Costa Rica, the hot water was more like warm water, but given the air temperature, that’s not a huge deal. Breakfast was prompt and tasty. The staff was very accommodating and helpful.

Nicest people ever, they treat you like family
We loved this place. Kimberly at the reception desk is the sweetest most efficient person you can find. We were there with our two teenagers and we all loved the place. Very clean and cozy. They even offered to wash our clothes after they got stinky hiking in they rain. They did everything and more to help us. I got injured in the forest (sprained ankle) and Kimberly and the owners family were truly concerned and caring, they even offered a ride in Kimberly’s car to go to the doctor. They made breakfast ( delicious)super early to accommodate the time of our insanely early tours. I would recommend this place to everyone.
Yolanda, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible owner and property
We didn’t end up staying here because the owner said he “sent us a message” that he didn’t have room for us. We didn’t receive his so called message until we showed up at the property and he suddenly came up with the message and said it was our fault that we didn’t get it. He was incredibly condescending and rude. DONT STAY AT THIS PROPERTY!
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Less than ideal
They had a nice breakfast. The room was as described. They did let us leave our vehicle parked there during our tour. Water is not potable. Although my reservation specifically had my children listed, they made me pay extra for them once we arrived. Definitely got ripped off, but what could I do since we were there?! It felt dishonest and I didn’t even get a receipt, the guy just pocketed my cash they insisted we pay with. I tried to email and communicate with the owner ahead of time about a need during our stay. Despite her kind email about reaching out should we need anything, she said she couldn’t respond and never replied further. Communication was poor even once we arrived.
