About this property

Jungle Serenity by the Sea

Welcome to your own slice of the Caribbean jungle — a place where mornings begin with the sound of howler monkeys (congos) and evenings fade into ocean breezes beneath a moonlit sky.

Located in the up-and-coming neighborhood of Playa Negra, just a 7-minute drive from downtown Puerto Viejo, the home offers quiet seclusion while keeping you close to everything the area has to offer. (Please note: there may occasionally be light construction noise in the neighborhood.)

This isn’t your average rental — it’s a true home.

After living here for three years, I’ve filled it with comforts, warmth, and thoughtful touches that most short-term rentals simply don’t have. You’ll feel the difference — everything here was designed to be lived in and loved.

The space is unique and art-filled, an eccentric haven surrounded by tropical gardens and a spacious fenced yard. With one bedroom and two bathrooms, it’s peaceful, private, and perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

You’re close to incredible beaches, markets, cafés, and jungle adventures — yet far enough to feel completely at ease.

The congos are calling… welcome home. 🌴

My name is Kyla and I am a superhost on Airbnb. I'm also a business coach who lives in both Colorado and Costa Rica (rent a place on the beaches of Puerto Viejo or in the Rocky mountains!) I love to travel and to give people who love to travel an experience of my homes, which I pour my heart and soul into making beautiful. I'm a writer and welcome other creatives. These two rentals are very special. I hope you enjoy my homes!
