The most fantastic place I stayed during my 3 weeks trip in Costa Rica. Beautiful garden, many birds & monkeys. The manager Pierre made us really feel at home. I definitely hope to be able to go back. Puerto Viejo and neighborhood have quite a few attractions and an astounding wildlife.

Wow. Just wow. What an amazing spot. It’s so beautiful and tropical. The trees are full of sloths and monkeys. There are dozens of tropical birds. I woke up to a toucan right at my window chirping every morning. Plus lizards and butterflies and so much life!! The flowers made me feel like I was living in a garden. The king size bed was super comfy. Plus cold air conditioning, hot showers, and a free breakfast. Just a beautiful hidden place in the middle of the rainforest. Even got to take a dip in the river!! And the host was gracious but also gave us lots of space which was really appreciated. Thank you for everything!!

Heliconia Island was probably a beautiful place some time ago, but it is sad to see how it is now completely lost its spark. The rooms were far from clean, most things were just falling apart in general. The garden is very beautiful and so is the view, but this gets a bit ruined when the gardener walks around with loud music when you try to enjoy the quiet nature. The service itself is not good either, it actually wasn’t really there at all. At arrival we weren’t even greeted properly and the manager was not on site most of the time. This place has absolutely amazing potential but does not live up to its name anymore.

Heliconia Island changed hands over the last couple of years. You can no longer get a guided tour of the gardens but they are still beautifully maintained and you can wander through them at your leisure. This place is magical and so who really cares if the accommodations are a bit on the rustic side with squishy mattresses and a cranky electrical system. Breakfast was delicious and accompanied by a wonderful show of tropical birds attracted to the papaya and banana that owner Pier put out for them. We also enjoyed canoeing on the Sarapiqui, but be prepared for a bit of effort to get the canoe down and later up the steep and muddy set of stairs leading to the river.

We didn't stay, we lost our 2 night reservation, too bad. The area, even though it is very isolated and full of mosquitoes, is quite nice. But it lacks hygiene, the bedspread was moldy from humidity and water stagnated on the floor of the room, probably an unrepaired leak. The reception stank of tobacco, it was difficult to understand each other because the owner doesn't speak Spanish at all, which is a shame! I advise against it, move on.

C’est un hôtel qui pourrait être bien s’il était mieux entretenu. Le petit jardin est sympa, rempli d’heliconia. Le petit déjeuner est pas mal. Mais les chambres sont a refaire, surement a cause de l’humidité. Il y a beaucoup de moustiques et d’autres petites bêtes qui piquent. Dommage.

Très belle chambre décorée avec goût et spacieuse, très propre et un balcon tranquille avec vue sur le merveilleux jardin plantée de nombreuses fleurs et des arbustes locaux où quantité d'oiseaux sont visibles. Très bon accueil, bon petit déjeuner qui se prend face au fleuve en observant les oiseaux, rien à redire.
