The breakfast is amazing! Each option is served with fresh baked bread that's still warm. I had a tour that was picking me up at 8am and the staff was kind enough to rush out my food and pack my fruit to go. I highly recommend staying here

Beautiful place to relax near Puerto Viejo
Alessandra and her staff make for the most amazing experience at this secluded hotel. My room was very clean and beautifully styled with high-quality linens. The grounds, pool, and breakfast area provide excellent spaces to relax. I would especially recommend this place for couples looking for a nice getaway retreat. Note: the hotel is a little further outside Puerto Viejo on a quiet road, you can park your car or Alessandra has an excellent relationship with some local taxi drivers for transportation.

Refresh, Rejuvenate, Explore
This unique and undiscovered treasure goes way beyond - from the magninamous and sophisticated proprietor who understands how to correct anything that might go wrong to the delicate architectural intricacies woven throughout that invite studied attention. As you can guess, we absolutely loved it. After traveling throughout the world we feel Sonora Caribbean Jungle Retreat is perfect for the weary traveller seeking an oasis of rest and rejuvenation. Stayed for only 3 days but a longer stay is a great idea.

Tolle Anlage mit sehr freundlichem Personal
Das Sonora Caribbean Jungle Retreat ist eine neue, sehr schlichte aber mit Stil erbaute Anlage mit Bungalows und einem Pool. Der Standort ist ein bisschen abgelegen und ohne mobiles Fahrzeug eher umständlich erreichbar. Mit Auto, Fahrrad oder Motorrad ist es aber sehr gut erreichbar. Die Zimmer sind schlicht und einfach eingerichtet, ziemlich ähnlich wie auf den Bildern ersichtlich. Wir hatten einen Bungalow (Comfort Double Room). Das Badezimmer war sehr grosszügig. Die Anlage ist schön hergerichtet. Das Team des Hotels ist sehr freundlich und immer gut gelaunt. Auch die Chefin ist sehr nett und mit ihrer herzlichen Art macht sie den Aufenthalt noch angenehmer! Danke für den tollen Aufenthalt. Sehr zu empfehlen.
