Tucked in between tropical flowers in a big patio against a background of lush tropical vegetation and right in front of the Caribbean Sea are the Chimuri Beach Cottages. Away from everything and still only a 20 minute stroll along the beach to the village with its restaurants, shops, bars, etc.

All three beach houses are built in typical Caribbean style in tropical hard wood, painted in lively colors with white "ginger bread" trimmings. We are located right on Puerto Viejo's magical black sand beach about 1.5 km from the village center. Close by is a store for basic provisions. We like to maintain a private and a tranquil atmosphere.
Only about a 10 minute walk up the beach begins the wetland area Río Carbón which stretches all the way up to the border of Cahuita National Park, another 30 minute walk, as its buffer zone and a birder’s paradise.
 All cottages feature wall fans, mosquito nets and wireless high speed Internet access.

How to get to the Chimuri Beach Cottages

Puerto Viejo is located on the Southern Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica.

If you are coming from San José by direct public bus (leaving S.J. daily from "Terminal del Caribe" at 6:00am, 10am, 12:00pm, 2:00pm, 4:00pm) or by private vehicle, have the driver let you off at the first "Playa Negra" bus stop just as the highway meets the beach in front of the "Pulperia Violeta" 1 km before the village. Take the road to the west (left as you view the beach) about 300 meters. We are right next to Cabinas Black Sands. See our location on the Puerto Viejo Satellite map

For private transportation we recommend the bilingual driver José Valverde. He'll pick you up at any hour at the airport or hotel and bring you to our doorstep. To make arrangements call ++506 8844-2109 or email americanatravelcr@yahoo.com
