    Pretty remote in the jungle. Comfortable bed and pool was clean. I was expecting quiet since in small and in the jungle but there was loud music playing even when no one was in the restaurant and the staff was not as helpful or nice as what would be expected.

    Pool was beautiful and the hotel grounds were peaceful.

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    The room and it is location on campus was amazing. The pool and dining room area were lovely. That it was hard to leave to go anywhere without arranging transportation.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    pools were awesome, suite was private and chic, staff was kind and accommodating, location to waterfalls/hikes was amazing little things like not enough towel hooks, broken room decor, smudges in the walls and drawers

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    The location is beautiful, in the mountains but yet close to the beach. The room was even bigger than it looks in the pictures. The staff were friendly and helpful

    parking was difficult when full

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    This was clearly among my favorite hotels in Costa Rica to date. The room was very large and luxurious, comfortable, with many ameniities. Beautiful pool, convenient parking, and fantastic, generouse breakfast included. I got a room upgrade as well… not a single negative.

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    Beautiful property, quiet, surrounded by nature. Breakfast was incredible and included in the day. Good options for lunch and dinner. Everything we needed was there. Super comfortable bed and the shower products smelled incredible and were natural. Wifi was unreliable

    Hotel Pumilio is a fabulous hotel. The staff, room, pool and breakfast are all exceptional. It was among my favorite hotels during my stay in Costa Rica. I was impressed and happy with all facilities and services.

    This place is a hidden gem, absolutely beautiful! The room was big, fully equipped! The pool was really nice and clean! Breakfast delicious! The staff genuinely friendly! You probably need a car, but is only 5min drive to Jaco. Everything was perfect!

  • Engine customer Nov 2024

    Very large room and clean enough but quite outdated. The property in general would need some renovations but has potential. Nice swimming pool facing the river. Open air spa was very nice, get a massage there if you have the chance! As I said, some renovations are needed. This was only a one night stay for us on our way to Manuel Antonio and for one night was totally fine!

    Nothing

    Very quiet and boutique hotel with wonderful staff. The property was surrounded by lavish nature, the breakfast area was on a patio overlooking rainforest. I would love to come back!! Laundry room

  • Engine customer Sep 2024

    The property was nice and clean, the staff was great and the pool area was perfect. The highlight was the breakfast that we enjoyed every morning and the lady’s that cooked were amazing. A couple days into our stay we had a few issues with no hot water for a few days and problems with the door handle and locks. But it was quickly resolved. The biggest issue was that after 10pm the main lobby and concierge were closed. So leaving the property or coming back after hour you had to call a head or ring the bell late night so staff offsite could let you onto the property. which was such an Inconvenience. Also you weren’t allowed to bring guess onto property, friends or family or anyone that wasn’t staying there. That was strange when I mentioned it to friends and locals.

  • Engine customer Jun 2024

    Very good

  • Engine customer May 2024

    Staff is very friendly and I love the breakfast The room had too many spiders, no hot water from the shower, hot tub was bot clean to use, and just too many bugs in the room.

  • Engine customer May 2024

    Passable

  • Engine customer May 2024

    The photos of the hotel looked amazing, but in reality it was all a bit run down and the bathroom smelt and was not entirely clean. The beds were not that comfortable and the walls for thin enough for us to be able to hear the neighbours all night. Breakfast was mediocre. Although you could order in food from restaurants, it was completely overpriced and the quality of food being delivered was really junk food. If I am paying European prices, I would expect a really high standard.
