Excellent stay at Pura Vida——-clean, cool rooms, very relaxing experience on the property. It’s obvious Pura Vida put thought into the arrangement of outside amenities, including couches, dining tables, the spa, and numerous fruit trees planted around the property. Would 100% stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay at Pura Vida and the beautiful town of Englewood. The apartment was a great place to return to after steamy, humid days on the beach. Clean, roomy, plenty of supplies and comfortable beds....we highly recommend and hope to return one day.Boca Grande was our favorite beach spot by far and a beautiful part of the world!!
