Wonderful, Beautiful, Peaceful

Posted Aug. 23, 2024 on Hotels
Amongst all the hotels I saw, I’m glad I came here on vacation with my children. We all had a wonderful time. The room did need a bit of updating but the comfort made up for it. Had 2 queen beds double ceiling fans, AC worked lovely, TV. Bathroom was nice. All and all, Quiet peaceful up on the mountains. Just beautiful! Outdoor patio with kitchen, pool literally 2 steps away from my patio. Serenity at its best. Will be coming back again. Pura Vida

The hotel is small and it’s a 10 m ride to Jaco beach. The breakfast is excellent. The staff is superb and the beds are extremely comfortable. The ac worked really well and it’s clean. If you’re looking to get away from the hassle and bustle of everyday life. This is the perfect little hotel to stay at for vacation.

Dear Anna, thank you for your review! We’re thrilled to read that you got such a great impression from your stay at Hotel Pumilio, we are certainly family oriented as we’ve always enjoyed this place with our family. I’m thrilled to read you experience was amazing!! Our team goes above and beyond to make our guests feel always extra special!! Sorry about the bugs, as much as we have super strict pest control protocols, it is very very hard to find a place that is mosquito free in Costa Rica… this is why we ask our guests to leave their room doors closed all day (specially in the afternoon when lights are on inside), it’s even better if you have the a/c on inside, since bugs like warm weather so doors closed + a/c on, should keep most of them outside!! Thanks again for recommending us, we hope you come back to Hotel Pumilio sometime soon!!

The staff was very friendly and the rooms are spacious. The breakfast was so delicious. Tje only negative is that there is no food besides breakfast. The hotel will order delivery if their guests want food.
