Wonderful stay

Everything was fantastic. Everything we needed was there - comfortable accommodation, tons of wildlife (monkeys, toucans, birds, butterflies...), beautiful beach in walking distance, and super helpful laundry service. It was a wonderful 5 night stay.

I love this place, from the moment you arrive you arr welcomed and they are so helpful with everything, my rental got a flat tire they took care of it, my massage lady couldn't come they booked another one, laundry done daily. They check on you and let you know how the ocean is in the morning, if they've spotted any monkeys pr sloths for you to look at. I can't say enough about this place. Don't hesitate just book it!! I will be back my home away from home.

We were so appreciative of the little details like being met at the gate upon our arrival in the dark, the daily laundry service, and the acceptance of delayed luggage while we were off property.
The Big Dream House was perfect for our family of 5 offering both enough privacy for teens and enough seating for family time. It felt lost among the rainforest but never out of touch with the world. Woken by the howler monkeys each morning and serenaded by great green macaws or lulled to relax with the rain on the leaves and roof, it was a wonderful spot to call home while exploring the region. |

One of our best experiences as a family, completely submersed in nature and wildlife, amazing. We saw sloths, great green macaws, monkeys and hummingbirds just by our accommodation. Housekeeping support was an added bonus. We will be back again.

I have travelled over 12000km throughout CR and stayed at 42 different places, from 5 star hotel to treehouses, and Congo Bongo still remains my favorite place to go to. It just feels like the true "essence" of Costa Rica.

We loved it all! Accommodations and service were excellent. We could have used a little less rain but that was not in your control!

Having stayed at Congo Bongo twice, we can firmly vouch that it is one of the most magical places in Costa Rica, quite possibly even in the world. From the unique villas and art installations to the surrounding jungle and pristine beach, Congo Bongo is absolute perfection. Not only is each villa a testament to the power of sustainable creativity and ingenuity, but they also offer comfort, coziness, and every amenity one could need. Thank you for another wonderful stay, Congo Bongo!

Die Lodge hat eine phantastische Lage, die einzelnen Häuser sind mitten im Dschungel. Genau so stellt man sich die Karibik in Costa Rica vor. Über einen Pfad gelangt man zum wunderschönen hauseigenem Strand. In der Anlage gibt es unglaublich viele Tiere und Pflanzen zu entdecken. Hunde , Katzen, Affen, Frösche, das Hausschwein Superstar, Toucans, Racoons (die ab und zu checken, ob das Essen wirklich sicher verstaut ist :-) und noch so viel mehr. Zudem ist alles sehr liebevoll mit Kunstwerken und Skulpturen dekoriert. Nicht zu vergessen das sehr nette Personal und den Wäscheservice, den wir dankbar angenommen haben, vor allem da während der Regenzeit sonst nichts richtig trocknet. Nach Puerto Viejo ist es auch nicht weit, wo es vom Supermarkt bis zu karibischen Bars alles gibt. Pura Vida!

A wonderful staying! The vegetation, congos and rainforest life made this trip really a nature experience. The place is beautiful and very well maintained. I love that the owners put effort on make it secure. Their eco focus is seen all through the place from the entrance to the little path that leads to the beach. My kids 7 and 9 and husband and me had a wonderful time.
