Very convenient for the ferry on arrival and for the bus to the border the next day. Breakfast was quite good, plentiful and included. Room 19 is attractive and has ocean views on 3 sides (the only room on the second floor); it's a smaller room but perfect for 1-2 people. It also has a large bathroom with an overhead shower. The second room we booked for the kids had less light but was spacious and comfortable.
Situated in Golfito in the Puntarenas Region, 6km from down Town. Free WiFi is available all over the property, also free safe private parking is available on site.

Breakfast was in a box with a scrambled egg, bread, butter, rice with beans, a tiny juice and cookie that was then eaten in your room after picking up at front desk.

This was a quaint stay in Golfito. The bed was comfy and it was nice to have the room to myself. The porch was really cool and comfy. Right by the river, too. You could walk up the river and explore but I didn't stay long enough to do so. The owners were very kind and hospitable.

My friend and I went duty free shopping. We had such fun. Was disappointed the hotel no longer has a bar or restaurant. We ate at Mar y Luna. Delicious. On the water. BEST margarita I've had in Costa Rica; I've lived here five years.

We visited Golfito due to its convenience to nearby wildlife viewing (particularly birding) opportunities. A car is a must for this, so if you are not renting a vehicle, this option is not recommended. The property also provides good opportunities for fishing charters. The bay has a big tidal shift and there are no beaches close by, so this is not a good location if that is what you seek.

Golfito is a very pretty area on the shores of the Golfito...
Golfito is a very pretty area on the shores of the Golfito Bay with a variety of activities and restaurants and bars, and overall a very good range of facilities. A great base to explore the surrounding Parks and Bays and the Gulf with a ferry across to Puerto Jimenez. Good for boating, swimming, kayaking, fishing, water skiing, sailing and chilling!!
Beautiful location, and immaculate but simple room. Immaculate pools, very nice gardens and play area for kids, great wifi, very friendly staff, and extremely good and generous breakfast, all in the room rate. Our waterfront suite was literally that, with a private balcony, and 180 degree views of Golfito Bay. It was well worth the extra 8 or 9 dollars!!! We also requested and got an early checkin. One of the best hotel stays we have had.
La Purruja Lodge is a real bargain. My room was light and spacious and the property is really beautiful, with tonnes of animals. Walter and Rosy are fantastic hosts who have been in Golfito for decades. I also found Golfito itself to be surprisingly charming. There is a bay, surrounded by jungle clad hillsides and lots of old wooden buildings from the American banana company - it feels like the setting of a novel.
Incredible hotel in Golfito! The view is amazing. Decoration is very pretty and beachy. Excellent location.
Staff is kind and attentive all the time.
Rooms are very spacious and beds WOW, extremely comfortable!
Food from the restaurant is very tasty. Btw, portions are HUGE, even the included breakfast! You can choose from around 5 options and they are all delicious.
Definitely the best option on the area!
It was unusual and great fun to stay overlooking the Golfito marina - a great spot for the sunset and spotting sea birds. The restaurant was overlooking the water and served good local food. The night we were there was lively, with lots of Ticans enjoying supper so a great atmosphere ... fruit cocktails excellent too! The rooms are huge with a lovely big bed and bathroom, plus fridge and coffee facilities.
This is in my opinon the least known and under rated property in Costa Rica. A perfect, small, beautiful hotel especially for the budget concious traveller. The setting, ambiance, owners and staff are more than outstanding. It's not fancy, but very clean, well maintained and entertaing with wildlife and domestic animals. The best value for money spent I have ever experienced.
I love how this place is close to the bank and a convenient location with sweet owners and a delightful neighborhThe Golfito Marina is also within walking distance. A decent walk to the airport and the Deposito Libre. Super convenient. Don Claudio will also drive you for $6. Meals are delicious and reasonably priced. My third visit here.
Staff was extremely friendly and attentive. The rooms were gorgeous, well thought and immaculate. The hotel is at a Marina, which makes the whole building very nice and charming.
Good range of breakfasts to choose from. You are offered a menu with different types of breakfast and you choose 1 from it.
Gorgeous views.
All meals were excellent, served in the wonderful restaurant that has a vaulted ceiling yet is open at ground level. Staff were extremely helpful in arranging transport for us both to and from the hotel. Cannot fault the staff who were friendly and very efficient.
Thoroughly recommend.
Carlos was a super friendly host and was always happy to answer our questions/give advice. The location was just a short walk from most of Golfito, and the food provided in the restaurant was really good. Our room was also super spacious and comfortable with air conditioning/fan.
Breakfast service was excellent
Hotel design, paintings, furnishings gave the feeling of living in a wealthy persons home!
The surrounding neighborhood was clean and seemed safe but all the fences, bars, and razor wire was a concern
Perfect place to overnight before or after the ferry from Jimenez. The young man who checked us in is an asset to the hotel his attitude so friendly and his English very good and he was so helpful find out about busses to go forward.
Beautiful, spacious, clean & modern property in Golfito. Great location, excellent restaurant on-site, and incredible staff. Would be thrilled to return! Excellent design and comfortable furnishings.
