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. 🌴

The host was very responsive to all our questions and requests. The casa was well maintained and very welcoming. The location is only a 10 minute walk to a beautiful beach.
