About
Simple, clean rooms about 50 meters north of the Puerto Jiménez airstrip, with a communal kitchen and a garden guests describe as full of fruit trees and flowers. The manager — Juan Carlos — is the star of nearly every review: he once sent (and paid for) a female taxi driver to collect a solo traveler arriving by bus at night, and he regularly helps guests book Corcovado tours, kayaking, and bike trips. Rooms have air conditioning, fans, and comfortable beds, and the quiet location sits within walking distance of the beach, a market, and the main street.

I can’t recommend this place enough! The rooms are clean with air con, fans, comfy beds and clean towels. However it is the host, Juancarlos who made it stand out for me. Upon arriving on the bus, having never been to Puerto Jiménez, I was unsure how safe it would be for me to walk to the hotel alone as a solo female traveller. Juancarlos offered to pick me up himself and then sent a female taxi driver to collect me which he paid for to put me at ease. This was such a kind gesture and a really positive start to my stay. I chose to use the hotel again on my way back and he was lovely again being flexible with check in time and making sure I had everything I needed. Amazing man running an amazing hotel!
Very nice stay at Jan Carlos !! The owner is super welcoming and accommodating, and the room was in perfect state! We would come back anytime :)
My friends an I had an amazing experience at this hotel this past week. Along with a cozy, cool room, comfortable mattresses, a secured building and rooms, and an on site kitchen, the hotel is also extremely accessible to get to the beach, rental cars, and the local airport. Even the Main Street with a grocery store, sooner shoos, restraints and bars are is in a walking distance. The hosts were super friendly and accommodating; making all guests feel welcome and their experiences heard. I would recommend for all ages, and to top it off it has a beautiful garden with multiple fruit trees and beautiful flowers. I will definitely be returning once I make it back out to Puetro Jimenez.
