Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca

Villa Blossom is first and foremost an amazing value, and second off all beautiful, peaceful, welcoming, and easy! The grounds hosted an insane amount of gorgeously curated plants, trees and flowers! The pool, yoga pavilion, and all common areas were perfect! The staff and hosts were super helpful and attentive if you needed anything or extra services (get a massage! it was amazing). There is a super market attached, the kitchen was well equipped and the beds were super comfy! Just in case your like us and didn’t realize, this is basically two hotel rooms next to each other with a shared outdoor space, and kitchen, there is no living room/couch! We didn’t find this to be an issue (and we had and 8year old) but it would be nice to have a hammock or something. Say hi to the local kitty if you go, and keep an eye out for frogs, Aguitas, SO MANY hummingbirds and other wild life!

This was a gorgeous home! We enjoyed listening to the birds and monkeys each morning. We even got to see 2 green Macaws fly over! The view is breathtaking! Delicious coffee and sugar was provided. We had a mishap with some broken glass and Felipe quickly sent someone over to help clean it up so we didn’t get hurt! The driveway is very steep but made for a good workout to break up all of the relaxing! We had no issue walking to the beach. My only feedback is there are not enough towels provided considering there is a pool and beach. For 2 women staying 2 nights we were given only 2 bath towels and 2 hand towels, no wash cloths. So we had to repeatedly use the same towel after the pool, beach, and showers. Not a big deal but not ideal either. Otherwise this home was perfect and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, local, beachy vibe in Costa Rica!!

I had an absolutely wonderful stay! The place was peaceful, cozy, and the perfect escape to unwind. There were so many great things to do nearby—from nature adventures to local gems, the area had it all. One of my favorite features was the outdoor shower—it felt adventurous and grounding, truly one with nature. And the hot water? Perfect! Just the way I like it. Highly recommend this stay for anyone looking to relax, reconnect, and enjoy the beauty around them. I would absolutely come back again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is beautiful and clean. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. It was a wonderful experience.

I recommend them, it is a spectacular house, perfectly distributed, spacious, with everything you need! In addition, the service, communication and so on with carolina was excellent.

Our stay at Casa Balma was absolutely perfect. The location is ideal – just a 5 to 10-minute drive to everything: great surf spots, beautiful beaches, and the entrance to Cahuita National Park. Even just walking around the nearby streets, we spotted toucans, spider monkeys, and howler monkeys. And right in the yard, we were treated to the sight of stunning tropical birds – it truly felt like nature was all around us. The property is spotless and full of charm, with a peaceful, almost magical atmosphere that made it incredibly relaxing. What made our stay even more special were the hosts, Christine and Nicolas – they were more than perfect. Warm, generous, and always ready to help, they made us feel right at home from the very beginning. And we can’t forget Caipi, their sweet dog, who greeted us every day with endless joy and cuddles. Her cheerful presence added an extra layer of warmth to an already unforgettable experience. Casa Balma is a true hidden gem. We left with beautiful me

Jessica really helped us out through a very difficult situation. After being double booked at another place, she got us in the next day extra early. She was super responsive and easily the best host I have dealt with yet. I strongly encourage staying here. Just as a word of advice, you 100% need to have 4x4 to get to this place. You may not need a full size SUV with 4x4, but anything helps.

We spent a lot of time trying to choose a spot for our week in Costa Rica. Our stay exceeded our expectations. It is a beautiful piece of paradise. So clean and open, surrounded by a large yard full of flora and fauna. So many lovely details went into the building of this airbnb. We loved the covered porch so much. Our hosts were beyond gracious. They answered questions and helped us navigate things like bike rentals. We felt so lucky to stay at Casa Corazon. The nearby beach was a beautiful feature too. Quick bike rides into Puerto Viejo were fun. We loved exploring spaces and places on foot, on bike, or by Tuk Tuks. We are so grateful!!

We had such a great stay here! The space is lovely and the surroundings felt so peaceful. Meg was a great host and would recommend!

Host was lovely and helped us when needed. A cute place to stay and very handy to have a contact for tuk tuk transportation and great Italian food when requested.

Mery’s place was just as described. Very comfortable, cozy and quaint. Well worth the value and I highly recommend. Took a while to find the exact place, although the shuttle was right there. Some type of signage out front would be helpful, but she responded immediately with a picture of where I was looking for.

The most beautiful place to stay very clean feels like your in a jungle oasis, pool is lovely. Host is very friendly and welcoming

We had two beautiful days at Cristina’s place. Couldn’t pick better. Jungle atmosphere with comfortable distance from everything that you need. Great vibe and place. Thank you Cristina for the experience

Great accomandation for digital nomads! The wifi is really good. The area is super quiet and chill & has plenty full of wildlife. You have everything you need nearby. I would recommend renting a bike for an extra smooth experience but you can also easily get around on foot. 10/10 would recommend! :)

Mariana’s place was great. She provided great instructions and was available if we needed. I will be staying here the next time I am in Puerto Viejo. If you are in Puerto Viejo you should definitely stay here.

Truly was the most magical stay. The most perfect location, can walk or ride bike to local beach and restaurants. The place was extremely quiet and clean. the family underneath were so friendly and gave us great recommendations for things to do. And had the cutest dogs and cat. Our stay was too short and wish we could have stayed longer! This place is paradise i cannot recommend this stay enough!!

An amazing place in Manzanillo, well-equiped and clean. Definitley will visit again.

Great place. We are very thankful with the owners

The stay was amazing. The place was beautiful, everything Sofi described was accurate and she was super helpful, friendly and very responsive. Really recommended!

The place is super spacious, cute, and how it looks in the pictures. Where I stayed there is no cooking (pots), there is no microwave, and the kitchen is gas. But out of there, everything is fine, very quiet and you can walk to the black beach.

I had a perfect stay in Puerto Viejo and in Ernyk his airbnb. He helped me with extra requests which was very nice. The house is very new and beautiful, a lot of green and animals around + only 5 min bikeride to shops and restaurants. Another plus is the eco friendly elements in the house. I would recommend this place 1000% and hope to return someday.

Good accommodation in a quiet area of Puerto Viejo, 5 minutes by car from downtown. We travel with family 4 people and stayed in one of the casitas they have with kitchen and bunk bed. Spacious and comfy stay. As it appears in the photos. Cozy common area and very clean pool. The manager Giacomo was very nice and always attentive. Highly recommended.

Perfect. Clean and has all amenities. Beautiful garden. So happy with the pool. Great vibe just so good

Amazing stay, these apartments must be the most modern in the town! It was brand new and spotless. Great WiFi.
