Caribe Town Hotel

Once a mostly Jamaican settlement, Puerto Viejo still has that laidback culture. Before Puerto Viejo became a tourist hub it was known for its impeccable surfing. Sand and salt encrusted boys would wander the dusty streets, board under arm, to ride the warm waves and sit on the white sand beaches. Now, Puerto Viejo has become a night life center. Resorts have popped up on the miles of pristine beach. Caribe Town is the perfect place to chill a little, party a little and eat a lot.

Located on Playa Cocles, the resort is halfway between two large national parks. Cahuita and Manzanillo- Gandoca are amazing wildlife preserves that are perfect for nature lovers. Relax on the beach and then head out for a hike to experience the tropical jungles of Costa Rica. Caribe Town is tranquil and laidback. Through the winding gardens you will find a frog pond and even a family of sloths. Caribe Town offers all the amenities of a top notch resort. Wifi is available throughout as well as a library with board games. The salt water pool includes a waterfall, swim up bar and massage jets. The staff are knowledgeable about the local activates and excursions to help make your dream vacation a reality.
