We had some delays on our check-in due to some issues with our car, so we arrived pretty late. However, we called before hand to let the host know and they were extremely nice and understandable, extremely recommended.

Great place, would come back again!

This place was really awesome. It’s one of the best prices in the area and perfectly located close to Cahuita with Punta Uva only a 30 minute drive. The people running the hotel are great and very helpful with information on where to go and what to do, they will also help you book activities if you want. You can purchase breakfast for only 5 or 10 dollars depending on what you chose and it’s made fresh and very delicious. Parking is on the property and there is a gate keeping the car safe from break ins which is especially important in Costa Rica. The sign for the hotel outside is “El Colibrí Rojo” so be aware of that when finding the place.

Perfect Caribbean Costa Rican Stay

We enjoyed our time at Le Colibri in Cahuita. The owners were helpful and communicative. It was obvious they took pride in their business and worked hard to make it an excellent place for people to stay and enjoy. The grounds are exactly what I would wish for in a Costa Rican holiday near the rainforest national park. The pool was awesome, parking safe, room clean, and water hot for the shower. Nothing more was needed - it was perfect for what we needed. Loved the added bonus of the hammock, honor fridge, community kitchen,

It’s a super cute little place and the owners are so friendly and helpful. I didn’t get to enjoy the place much because it was only one night stay because I wanted to go to the beach. But I will certainly come back and stay here longer next time.

Really good relaxed place with a mixed group of all ages. The owners live right on the property and are extremely nice and friendly. Grounds are very well taken care of. Rooms are simple but clean and comfortable. Highly recommend. Especially useful as the property is right near an entrance to the park which makes an ideal day hike from town (free shuttle in the morning) back to the hotel. Good pool as well!

This is a family run hotel in a beautiful place with the perfect amenities for families or backpackers who want a nicer place to stay then what you find in the area. The couple have made the property a little heaven and they are wonderful hosts. Best part is the ability to walk the entire National Park and be at this hotel by foot.

Rustic, tucked away, good value.

It's a nice little motel that's a little out of the way. You can take the public bus into Cahuita, otherwise It's a 45 minute walk. Or they offer a morning ride into town. Puerto Vieja is farther but again reachable by us. Room was not big but large enough for me. A/C and a ceiling fan. There were ants, especially in the evening. The couple who are caretakers are very nice. The French-style breakfast was better than expected. I think the place caters to French tourists mostly, but one of the caretakers speaks English. The price seemed fair to me.

Best place to stay close enough but not too close

Comfortable, friendly, quiet with air conditioned rooms and communal kitchen, pool and ideally located away from the noise and business of Cahuita and Puerto Viejo but still close to both. The owners are very caring and went out of their way to ensure we had a stressfree and very pleasant stay. Excellent value and honestly worth more than we paid. We stayed 5 nights and enjoyed every one. Would highly recommend and will stay there again! Alex, Paula, Talena and Taylor (Vancouver, BC, Canada)

The room was clean, had an air conditioner and a functional shower. However, the room was not cozy - very small and dark (dim, florecent blue light that made you not want to be inside). The oweners were helpful and polite but not welcoming.

Ithis place was advertised as in limon , it was not even close 55kms. south of limon on a very bad narrow road , when I located the hotel it was desolate , dirty , no one in attendance but a janitor who spoke no English , he contacted the owner by phone and she said she would be there in 3 hours or more , the place was awful and I refused to stay there and then had to drive 5 hours back to San jose to get a room for the night . I then called the next hotel on my list in La Fortuna which is where I am right now . I paid for 2 nights in advance , this is a very nice place excellent and friendly . I do not feel I should be charged for the hotel in lomon being as it is so bad and not worthy of being on your list of hotels.

Un bon accueil et un accès à notre chambre avant l’horaire. L’hôtel est au bord d’une Grenade route très bouillante. Il faut prendre la voiture pour se restaurer et le soir c’est pas facile. Pas de pression pour la douche. Une bonne gestion des déchets dans l’hôtel.

Perrine et Mathieu deux français ont repris cet établissement depuis quelques années, grâce à leurs talents et gentillesse, ils ont valorisé le Lieu tout en gardant Costa Rica in Disponible, de bons conseils pour notre séjour, maîtrise quatre langues ... Détails pratiques, possibilité de faire sa cuisine sur place ( equipement, vaisselle, barbecue, produits de base) Une piscine et jacuzzi toujours bienvenu sous cette latitude. Petit déjeuner sain et copieux et à la carte. A proximité ( 200 metres) l'entrée du parc national de Cahuita d'ailleurs nos couchés et levés étaient bercés par le cris des singes du parc Les plages de sables blancs et noirs sont à quelques minutes de voitures ainsi que bons restos et bars ä cocktails, le village tout proche de Cahuita est cool et vraiment sympa ambiance caribbé et ticos assurées.

Gut

freundliche Gastgeber, schönes Grundstück mit Pool, Gemeinschaftsküche und auch nutzbarer BBQ Bereich. Zimmer von der Auststattung ok. Das Bett war recht unbequem, für eine Nacht aber ok. Die WLAN Verbindung war größtenteils nicht nutzbar, kann aber daran gelgen haben das andere ganze Filme gestreamt haben, so dass z.b. eine einfache Banküberweisung unmöglich war. Highlight: Warmwasserdusche. Mein Fazit: für 1 bis 2 Tage In Ordnung. Möchte man länger bleiben und reist mit Kind, doch lieber was anderes, gleichwohl die Gastgeber Kinderfreundlich sind.
