Better than any canopy tour, you are amongst all the enimals, with all the best conditions (minus AC)
mohamed.partnerApr 14, 2024 The room was very clean and comfortable. However, it would have been nice to have a refrigerator and also an air conditioner since it can get very warm and the ceiling fan alone does not cool the room down. The staff and owners are super friendly and very attentive. We left very early in the morning and the lady working in the kitchen (I believe her name was Gira) offered to prepare us some sandwiches, which super nice of her. One negative was that things do not dry since its super humid outside as well as in the room. However, if you enjoy nature this is definitely the place to stay!
thomas.partnerApr 12, 2024 Great place to feel immersed in the jungle, with trees and animals all around. We saw a sloth, monkeys and agouti, they have a tiny frog sanctuary, and it's close to the beach (10 min).
Room has a mosquito net and helps to feel immersed in the jungle (no windows)
Food and drinks are available and the breakfast was decent.
Amazing hosts, grounds, hospitality
robert.partnerMar 12, 2023 Very nice facility in small forest setting. Well maintained, excellent staff. Very nice quiet dinner on site. All around good experience
armando.friendsJan 29, 2023 Only stayed one night and wished it would have been longer. Owners did all they could to make it a great experience. Food(dinner and included breakfast) was great. Connected us with a trusted driver that got us through an unknown period with ease. Spanish speaking was necessary for that though

david.partnerOct 30, 2022 La Kukula Lodge is an amazing Costa Rican jungle experience.
The accommodations are unbelievable matched only by the surroundings.
You really are in the middle of a jungle.
From seeing agoutis for the first time to waking up to the sound of howler monkeys, you never knew what you were going to get.
The owners make you feel very welcome and at home.
The staff are all very friendly and English is widely spoken.
They serve a complimentary breakfast which was delicious!
A truly amazing stay in Costa Rica!
Really beautiful place a perfect combination on being in the jungle and really close to the beach, walking distance to at least 5 excellent restaurants
michael.familyMay 19, 2022 Loved the cabana and the grounds were amazing. The staff was very pleasant. I would highly recommend to anyone going to Playa Chiquita
nicole.partnerApr 09, 2022 Our stay at La Kukula lodge was perfect – it was clean, close by Puerto Viejo and had all the amenities we needed. I would 10/10 stay there again.
tamarra c.familyApr 01, 2022 We loved the rooms. We were inside but we could feel everything outside. The room is screened very well, yet we were able to hear the pouring rain and the Howler monkeys. It is really jungle living.
The property is very clean and well-maintained. Clean towels and sheets regularly. The kitchen staff is friendly and accommodating. Sonia is fantastic and helpful! A very comfortable stay in the jungle. A beautiful beach is a short walk down a jungle path...quiet beach, secluded.
kathryn.friendsFeb 28, 2022 Wonderful lodge in the midst of the jungle. Incredibly friendly owners and we got to watch wildlife on the property including agoutis and a sloth. Had a wonderful time.
Beautiful property and friendly owners, very nice beach within walking distance. Perfect distance away from playa puerto vejo.
This place was hands down the best place we stayed on our 2-week trip in costa rica! The rooms, hospitality, ambiance, and wildlife were all outstanding! I would highly recommend this place!
Hands down best place we stayed in costa rica. The rooms, hospitality, ambiance, and wildlife were all of the charts outstanding. Highly recommend!
What a beautiful 4 days we enjoyed at La Kukula Lodge. Upon our arrival, the owner went out of his way to find a sleeping sloth for us to enjoy. The rooms were very clean, with clean towels every day. We were 3 in our room and not crowded.
The service couldn't have been better. We even asked for a particular item on the menu that they had run out of the day before and the owner went shopping to ensure they had the right ingredients for us. The food was terrific, especially the included breakfasts. The chef came out several times to ensure everything was satisfactory.
I would definitely recommend this lodge.
Leafy spot, helpful staff and interesting jungle noises! Best with own transport, we struggled with taxis
An amazing stay in the jungle!
Extraordinary ambiance - you feel like you are in the middle of the jungle. The owners are extremely friendly and accomodating! I highly recommend this property to everyone!
