Nature eco lodge vacation rentals in Gulf of Nicoya

We loved everything about Los Vivos. The real beachfront experience.Great communication, amazing beach, amazing food and excellent service, gorgeous location. We want to come back!

La villa estaba muy bien ubicada, de fácil acceso y con todo lo necesario. Todo muy limpio y con una decoracion muy bonita. La realidad mejor incluso que las fotos. Esta dentro de un complejo donde dan todo tipo de facilidades. David fue un excelente anfitrion, amable y encantador, aportandonos recomendaciones, y teniendo detalles con nosotros. En definitiva un aloja.iento y un anfitrion de 10.

Es war alles sehr schön eingerichtet und vor allem Abends hatten wir eine sehr schöne Atmosphäre. Der Preis war fair. Lediglich bei der Waschmaschine gab es ein Missverständnis, wobei 10 Dollar ein üblicher Preis für Wäsche ist. Vielen Dank!

This place is an absolute gem! The views of the lake Arenal are fantastic and the house has a charm that the pictures don't do it justice. You have see it in person to appreciate the place. Patrick and his wife were excellent hosts, very helpful with anything we needed. The house is minutes to Nuevo Arenal, lake Arenal and lake Cote, one hour and a half from La Fortuna in one direction and from Tenorio Volcan with Rio Celeste in another direction. e Excellent location to have for a base and visit a large area. Thank you for hosting us and we will be back!

I liked the place very much, it was a blessing, very quiet. The host was very helpful, I needed a good wi-fi connection and he was able to provide. There is a lot to do in the place and is also conveniently close to Manuel Antonio's National Park and other beaches. I appreciate he was able to accomodate us in such a short notice.

Great place to stay at! It's a private quiet place to stay at but still has walkable restaurants nearby. Huge bathroom with hot water, fridge in room and double beds. Not complaint but something to note is pool is shared by all villas and not directly outside room. A nice surprise was that breakfast was included and free from 7-10 am. I would definitely stay again!

Great tiny apartment, very well furnished with a little terrace. The host was very nice and responded quickly. We saw an agouti in the morning and some wildlife around the apartment !

La casa es tal como se ve en las fotos, doña Evy es una persona muy amable y la señora que nos recibió Magaly muy atenta, las habitaciones estaban limpias y eran agradables el río está como a 15min a pie , nos dieron frutas frescas y la privacidad fue excelente, apenas para ir a descansar y pasarla bien ...

This is our second time staying at Calala and it was amazing ! The included breakfast is amazing ! We ate dinner there a few times too , so good . The cabins are beautifully designed , the indoor/outdoor showers are the best . The pool is a great place to cool off , the beach is gorgeous . Walk to cemetery island at low tide you won’t regret it . I would recommend bringing an extra fan if you can , there isn’t A/C . There’s ceiling fans and an oscillating floor fans available in cabins . Everyone speaks great English so no worries there . We will be back for a third visit soon !

Gracias Matea nuestra estadía en su Airbnb estuvo excelente!!!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjours chez Ronald. La journée l’extérieur était très agréable avec les hamac et tous les aménagements extérieurs. La nuit nous étions très confortables dans le bungalow. Ronald s’est montré très réactif face a nos questions et nous a toujours aidé. Le logement est très proche de la cascade Llano del Cortez donc c’était super ! Par contre le chemin qui nous avons pris pour arriver au logement est assez rocailleux, il faut vraiment y aller doucement avec la voiture…

Logement très propre et très proche des activités Check in et check out effectué facilement. L'hôte est très réactif sur Airbnb Je recommande

I went with my 2 daughters (age 16 & 20) and we had a great time! The villa was beautiful, comfortable, and very well appointed. The view was incredible and just sitting on the porch listening to and watching the wildlife was the perfect way to relax. The fresh, local, organic food cooked by the staff was amazing! We enjoyed the pool, and a cold plunge in the spa. The gym was nice for a workout too. It’s about 20 mins to the towns and beaches in and around Nosara from the remote location up on the mountain so you aren’t popping in and out, but we planned ahead when we were spending time off site so it wasn’t a problem. The remote location made it special. Oh and the staff were all super friendly and accommodating! We highly recommend staying here.

Looking for a calm, modern, clean, green piece of paradise in the jungle - close to the beach (but with a pool just in case) ? Congratulations 🎈 You found it. Time to book. This was my favorite Airbnb in a very long time. Thank you, Daniela. PS: the open air kitchen is amazing!

Mercedes was an incredibly sweet and helpful host, she made us feel right at home from the start. The place itself is peaceful and surrounded by nature, with the sounds of wildlife adding to the relaxing atmosphere. It’s about a 15-minute drive from La Fortuna, and most tours will pick you up directly from the Airbnb, making it super convenient. If you’re looking for a stress-free stay near La Fortuna, I highly recommend this place!

Marine’s place deserves more than just five stars—it’s truly exceptional. We’re so grateful to have discovered this hidden gem. Don’t hesitate, just book it—it’s more than a stay, it’s an experience. The entire place feels like a retreat, and we were genuinely sad we only stayed one night. We instantly fell in love and are already planning to return! There are so many thoughtful amenities—from a private sauna and cold plunge to a hanging bridge that leads to open treehouses. Our room was beautifully unique and perfectly designed, facing the forest where we even got to see monkeys in the morning. Marine was incredibly kind and helpful, recommending great local restaurants. Ordering in was the best decision, especially with the rain—it allowed us to relax and fully enjoy our stay while savoring delicious food. Katana is a must-try; it’s one of the best spots we’ve experienced. Overall, this place exceeded all expectations. We can’t wait to come back!

Great place, awesome for kids with pool and to explore around. Beach is 5 min by car and place is very clean and comfortable.

This bed and breakfast is in an amazingly beautiful location. Although we had rainy and cold weather, we thoroughly enjoyed visiting the area, and it’s quite close to Selvatura Park. The value for the room is incredible - we could only imagine the views if the weather had been good for us (see reviews about the view when the weather is clear). Lastly, ask for extra blankets if the weather is rainy/cold, as the rooms aren’t heated. As the reviews state, the banana pancakes and coffee are amazing. Beautiful place!!!

En anfitrión me pareció muy amable, siempre respondía a las consultas. El lugar muy tranquilo, fresco, hermoso. Me encantó que aceptaran a mis dos perritos 🐶 🐶 La cafetería deliciosa….❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷 Si necesita estar en contacto con la naturaleza es el lugar ideal! Lo recomiendo 1000% 🌿🌱🪴🍀🌿🥬🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃

We had a great stay at Gloriana's place. It is incredibly beautiful and quiet. The food was also delicious and the owners are super friendly. Looking forward to coming back!

We had a lovely stay at Ana’s place. It’s a very nice decorated open tree house - so of corse there are some animals - but it was no problem with the insect net around the bed. In the morning we walked together through the property were we met all the other animals and everything was explained to us. The breakfast was really delicious and we felt very welcomed by the family . Thank you so much for the experience!

Süße kleine Zimmer mit Klimaanlage, warm wasser in der Dusche und einem Kleinen Schrank mit blick auf den Fluß. alles was man braucht um sich eine nacht zu erholen. Die Gastgeberin war super nett und hat uns alle fragen beantwortet.

die familie war sehr herzlich und hilfsbereit. der pool herrlich. das vogelgezwitscher wunderbar! wir sahen so viele tiere direkt vom pool aus,sogar pagageie! das frühstück jeden morgen frisch auf dem feuer zubereitet und wir durften immer frische bananen von ihrem baum nehmen! danke!

This accommodation was absolutely unique and exceeded all expectations with its quirky cool rooms, impeccable cleanliness, outstanding service from Travis and his team, and a perfect location - Travis took us out on his boats for a day of snorkeling, swimming and island hopping, a 5-star boat experience from start to finish, definitely will recommend.
