Los Paniquines Ecolodge

Pros: I liked everything about this beautiful place. The hosts were so welcoming, friendly and helpful. The food was lovely. The location was perfect for me. Very quiet and out the way. It's on the hiking trail, an hour walk to Bahia or 1.5 hour to San Josecito. But you can take a boat to these places to. A lot of wildlife on your doorstep. Toucans, monkeys, macaws, lots of birds. I saw Wales and dolphins on the way to corcovado and cano. This was altogether an amazing experience. Quiero vivir aqui!

Cons: 0o

Lovely hosts and an incredible surroundings made our stay a unique experience.

Cons: Nothing!

Amazing place

Pros: Great place and amazing hospitality. The best place during our entire trip.. The hosts Rafa and Ester are amazing 🤩

Beautiful family run eco-lodge close to the beach and wildlife

Pros: The place is beautiful. Rafa and Esther are lovely and kind hosts and really looked after us, Rafa meeting us off the boat and making sure that we also got on and off safely when we went on other trips. They arranged the ferries for us and also a couple of tours (one to Corcovado with a fantastic guide Erick) and also kept us well fed, Esther providing delicious meals. Lovely clean comfortable cabins just 100m from the beach and one of the best coast paths in Costa Rica with loads of wildlife on the doorstep.

Cons: Nothing - was perfect. Possibly helps if you know a bit of Spanish but we managed fine.

Pros: A lovely family run lodge, Rafa and Esther are wonderful hosts. They made us feel comfortable from the minute we arrived and throughout the whole stay. Food at the soda was delicious and the location is unbeatable if you want a secluded and peaceful stay. We saw lots of wildlife on our doorstep, including a sloth!

Cons: Nothing. We should have stayed longer!

Amazing!

Pros: Paradise! Our hosts Rafa and Ester were so kind and helpful! They cooked us delicious meals, helped us with arranging the boats and tours, whilst also cleaning our room everyday! The property is so close to a lovely beach (2 minute walk) and our room was situated within a lovely garden, where you can spot wonderful wildlife! This was our favourite place to visit out of our two week trip to Costa Rica, therefore, we couldn’t recommend it more!

Cons: Nothing! Everything was perfect!

Pros: Rafa and his wife were amazing hosts and the way they take care of the guests is exceptional. The cabina is cleaned every day and new towels and bed sheets are provided every day. The food is amazing and super fresh cooked from the best ingredients. I loved to stay in Los paniquines. Highly recommend.

Cons: None

Pros: The most fantastic location away from tourist and direct at the beach with wildlife just outside. The hosts were the so sweet and helpfull and the food was great.

The perfect little jungle/beach hideaway to spend your last days in Costa Rica

Pros: Our stay with Rafa and Ester was perfect. They are a warm and welcoming family and they will make you feel right at home. Los paniquines is located at a stones throw from Playa Las Caletas. A nice quiet beach where you will get the chance to meet the locals at sunset. And see ballenas if you're lucky. No shops, no cafes, no restaurants, no noise from leaf blowers and grass cutters you would get in the fancy lodges. Just a couple of family run cabanas and an almost private soda where Ester will lovingly prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner whenever you want. No AC but we did not miss it one bit. No ocean view from the room to see the sunset, but who needs that when the sun sets at 6pm? Just go to the beach like the locals. This really was the perfect place to spend the last couple of days of our holiday.
