Great beach house with direct access to the beach just across the street. Had to pay extra for the strict check-in time assigned by the host. A self-check-in procedure would be more efficient as one can never anticipate the traffic on any given day in Costa Rica. The roof to the cottage could sue some updating as there were multiple leaks from the heavy rainstorms. Location was ideal having a beach near the house and town amenities less than a mile away.

On the beach
Great stay. So close to the beach and near the center of puerto viejo, but not in the crazy noise of town. Plenty of room for 7 people. Indoor/outdoor combined area is awesome. Definitely has bugs and was hot but ceiling fans were great and netting around the beds was helpful.

Ceiling Fans and Sea Breeze
Absolute perfection for a wonderful Costa Rican stay. We aren’t into staying at fancy hotels but prefer to stay in houses. We enjoyed the quiet location across from Playa Negra. The breeze was perfect at night and we all slept wonderful!

Close to everything
We had a great stay! We have family living in Puerto Viejo but needed a place for a group of us to stay during a visit. The property manager arranged to meet us upon our arrival to show us around the property. That proved to be very helpful.
The pictures are very accurate but don’t capture how wonderfully tropical the property feels, filled with lush landscaping. As with most properties in the area, it was gated and fenced. You have to walk across the street to the beach but can see the water from the open air living room. It is my understanding that the road was only recently paved, which adds some noise. But it really not an issue as the wave sounds and breeze from the beach are your background music.
I like that the property was in Playa Negra. Puerto Viejo itself is packed with restaurants and bars …and people and cars and bikes. It was nice to have access to that but stay outside it.
The location was a good jumping off point to explore the beaches in the area, waterfall and nature preserve tours and more.

April visit
The property was very nice. Very close to the beach and close to town. We did go into town (which I enjoy) more then in previous visits due to it's location as we were farther away the other two times. The grounds were beautiful and enjoyed walking around and looking at things. Maid was very nice and really worked hard to keep it clean. We enjoyed talking to her.A couple of suggestions. Maybe another chair would be nice. The couch wasn't too useful for us. For some reason all of us found sitting in the table chairs to be uncomfortable. That was odd and I'm not sure why. Please replace the fire extinguisher. It's extremely outdated and I'm sure wouldn't work. I was told that we could call local numbers and the caretaker on the phone in the house. It doesn't work. I tried using it but got nothing, therefore my rating of contacting the caretaker. Finally, small thing but it would be nice to have a knob to be able to close the door on the front bedroom. If we weren't inside the room we couldn't get the door closed. These however did not deter our enjoyment of the house and we would likely stay there again if we return to Puerto Vijeo which hopefully we can sometime soon as we really love it there.

Magic Moon at Playa Negra
This is a incredibly beautiful property with ocean access right across the street. Location was easy to get to and well cared for. The cleaning professional was an absolutely wonderful human who did an excellent job and took care of laundry as well. Additional amenities not noted in the listing were beach towels and drinking water as well as filtered water for showers. The house practices were eco friendly. My one minimal critique is with the initial communication from the property caretakers/owners. I did not receive any info or communication from them prior to arrival about check in. I had to do the outreach for this myself via a phone call as they did not respond to texts through this app. However once we were connected on WhatsApp there was no problem. Upon arrival caretaker was very informative and extremely helpful. To anyone interested in staying you should make sure your WhatsApp is working. Tuk Tuks are the best method of travel as well as scooter/motorcycles and bike rentals. There are two small grocery stores in walking distance as well as a restaurant at the Banana Azul Hotel that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The local towns are all worth visiting. Delicious food can be found everywhere and all the people we met were extremely welcoming and helpful. Over all I would I would highly recommend this home to others. My group had a wonderful experience staying in this magical place and it was very hard to leave. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful home, would stay again!
Lovely place, clean and exactly as pictured. Check In staff were really friendly, as were all cleaners and gardeners we met.
Property could've been slightly closer to town, but there were shops and a restaurant within walking distance, and only 5 minute cab ride to town centre. Beach directly across the road was amazing and pretty quiet, a benefit of not being in the town centre!
Overall, really enjoyed our stay!

Best trip ever
This property was outstanding. It was just like the photos that were displayed. The location to the beach and the banana Azul resort down the street were also great. We had a minor problem the first night that I called Joseph about and he responded out that same morning to fix it. The communication with property management was perfect. Everyone in my group agreed that this vacation could not be beat. I would highly recommend this property, even though I am afraid that it might make my ability to rent it in the future more difficult.

Peaceful and relaxing
Beautiful deck, you just fall in love with it. Very close to beach and excellent restaurant. Sad, that they still did not replace the frying pan. No potato peeler. The kitchen utensils are lower then what you can buy at a thrift shop store. One cabinet door was falling off. For the money we paid it was a disgrace. The door downstairs was extremely hard to open and impossible to get out without a key from the inside.
We did enjoy our stay, but way to expensive for the way the house is maintained. Too basic.

Lovely handcrafted wooden home
Interesting, unusual and fairly comfortable home, although couches, beds could have been a little softer. In a neighborhood on somewhat busy small road. Black beach is conveniently across the road and almost deserted. Stormy weather in Jan (wet season) so no sunbathing. Favorite beach is further down the road at Punta Uva. Kitchen had enough dishes but only one wine glass one champagne flute, one brandy snifter. Pots, pans are old with Teflon coating peeling off. Alejandra, housekeeper is friendly, kind and efficient. Anja who welcomed us perfunctorily was having mobile and internet problems so was not readily available to us. A decent stay, all in all...

Wonderful place to enjoy the rain. Outdoor living makes you feel like you are in the jungle but cozy and dry. After the rain stopped the proximity to the beach and town is awesome. Beautiful black sand beach in front and plenty of other beaches each with their own character within driving distance. House was clean and just as pictured.

A tropical paradise!
Our stay at Magic Moon was absolutely perfect. This is a traditional Caribbean, open air house with living area, kitchen, and 2 bedrooms upstairs, and a bedroom with a double and a single downstairs. Our group of 7 fit perfectly.
All the beds have mosquito netting but we barely saw a mosquito. We loved listening to the pounding surf ( just beyond the beautiful garden), the frequent rain, and all the amazing jungle sounds ( instead of an air conditioner). The fans and tropical breezes made us comfortable. Even in July. A sloth huddled in a tree outside our bedroom window. We enjoyed making breakfasts in our well-supplied kitchen, but our main meal was amazing at the hotel/restaurant just down the beach called Banana Azul. The staff was wonderful as well. I recommend this amazing place to anyone who wants an authentic, pura vida experience on the Caribbean coast.

Beautiful property, great location
We had a wonderful time at Magic Moon House. It is nicely decorated and stocked with enough modern kitchen equipment. 6 people sharing the house, plenty of room, close to the beach and walkable to town. Two bedrooms and big living space upstairs and private bedroom and bath downstairs. The owner and staff were very friendly and helpful. We felt very safe. Banana Azul right down the road is very convenient for a quick bite to eat or drink and a place to book tours.
We would happily return.

What a lovely vacation house in paradise!
My husband and I vacationed with two other couples at Magic Moon for 10 days, and absolutely loved it. The beach is just a few steps away, and we slept soundly every night to the sounds of the waves. The beds were comfy and the the bedrooms and kitchen had everything we needed. The huge outdoor living room/verandah was where we spent most of our time at the house... it caught every breeze and had a sea view. There were towels for showers, and also lots of towels provided for taking to the beach. The blender worked great for making smoothies and pina coladas from the fresh fruits that were so abundant in the area, and the freezer made plenty of ice. The bottled water dispenser was kept stocked, and the housekeeper came every other day and cleaned and made beds and provided fresh towels. The house and driveway are within a secure fence. We went in February and the weather was PERFECT. While we explored many of the area beaches, we loved hanging out on the beach at the nearby Banana Azul hotel a few minute's walk away, being served drinks and relaxing in their comfu beach chairs. Anja, the property manager, took AMAZING care of us. In fact, one of us left a phone behind when we checked out and left for the airport, and she graciously mailed it to us in the US. Only cons: The toaster needed the handle held down in order to work, but I'm sure that as soon as I remember to mention that to Anja, there will be a new toaster for the next renters! We would definitely stay here again.

Laid back vacation on the beach
Our family thoroughly enjoyed the Magic Moon House for our holiday in Puerto Viejo. Located just outside of town, it’s a nice beach walk, or a sort car journey to get what you need from town. The open air deck at Magic Moon is simply unforgettable. Truly a world class spot to relax and unwind.

Fantastic!
We stayed at Majic Moon from Aug 26 - Sept 1 2018. I can't say enough good things about the entire experience. Anja was very helpful, responsive, and accommodating in every way. The house is great. Very open , large, well appointed, and comfortable. The grounds are immaculate and you can spend hours just walking around the yard enjoying the nature. The beach is directly in front of the house and you will listen to the waves (and many other animal sounds) as you fall asleep. Wonderful. Location is perfect, far away enough from town to enjoy the peace but close enough for easy access. Definitely will be back and highly recommend.

Informazioni sull’host
Host: Anja Ludewig
We took over this beautiful place in April 2011, knowing the property already for a couple of years. We are living in Switzerland and spend a couple of months per year at Magic Moon House. Our passion is travelling, living in a natural environment and we are true animal lovers. Puerto Viejo is the right place to be for us!
Perché ha scelto questa struttura
You will understand us once you have spent a couple of nights at our house - falling asleep to the sound of the Ocean, waking up to the music of the birds...
Cosa rende unica questa struttura
Close to Puerto Viejo town, but still far away to get the right jungle feeling. The beachfront location is probably our most favourite benefit as it is so nice to be able to go for a swim, just steps from the house. Puerto Viejo area also offers a lot of great activities as well as nice restaurants.
