Casa Manu Ciao (3-5 people), Playa Cocles

Escape to a secluded Costa Rican jungle paradise just minutes from the Caribbean Sea. This bright and spacious home in Cocles, Puerto Viejo, is perfect for families or groups up to five.
The space has been crafted by myself, a unique design inspired by the nature that surrounds it. It is built with natural materials, using traditional construction methods and ecological techniques, featuring fallen trees as structural beams, bamboo and straw thatches.
It is tucked away, providing a secluded and tranquil space where you can feel safe, relax and seek comfort in the jungle, yet remaining walking distance to the many amenities of the town and just 200m from Cocles beach.
Here, you can experience the abundance of nature that Costa Rica is so famous for - live amongst wildlife such as sloths, howler monkeys and toucans, and wake up to the sweets sounds of hummingbirds. Explore the lush jungle vegetation and find a rainbow of tropical plants growing close by.
Casa Manu Ciao is a cosy yet spacious environment, featuring three bedrooms and one bathoom. There is an open-air kitchen complete with oven, blender and coffee making facilities, and a sociable, terrace living area with a couch, hammock and dining table. The open spaces are designed for you to be able to relax amongst the beautiful surroundings, yet remain covered and protected should the tropical rains arrive.
