Here you can feel miles from anywhere, but you have everything on your doorstep. Cocles has numerous restaurants and supermarkets, and easy access to the beach. It is a quiet haven where the tropical beauty induces relaxation and embracing the good life: 'Pura Vida'. Owners Tine & René live on site. We will gladly help you to book tours, restaurants or bikes at no extra cost. Geckoes Lodge is small enough to offer you personal service when you need it and to respect your privacy. We have three dogs - they are big, but very friendly and always stay at our house.
Lovely apartment for everyone who wants to sleep in the jungle! We didn’t have any bugs in the house and felt the whole time really safe. Thanks a lot for the experience!
What an experience! Very exhilarating to sleep with the sounds of the jungle all around you, unlike anything I've ever experienced. Loved being tucked away from the hustle and bustle of town but still super close to everything. If you're a light sleeper bring ear plugs, took me a night to adjust to the howler 🐒 serenading us from the trees above
This place is so magical. The first night we got in after dark and René welcomed us and showed us around. I was worried about the mosquitos but because so many of the animals in the rainforest eat them it wasn’t an issue. I will never forgot having morning coffee and evening mojitos on the porch and casually seeing the most beautiful humming birds, giant butterflies, and tucans so frequently it was hard to believe it was real. René pointed out a sloth the was hiding in the tree right outside of the kitchen. The kitchen was fully equipped was so peaceful cooking there. Also the Wi-Fi worked better than it does at home in NY. We are so grateful to Tine and Rene for sharing this slice of paradise with us.
* Transport In and Around Puerto Viejo
Geckoes Lodge is one kilometre from the beach and the main road where there are supermarkets and restaurants. Therefore you may appreciate some form of transport. The following options are available in Puerto Viejo: bicycles, scooters, quads, motorbikes, taxis, tuktuks and rental cars. If you would like a rental car but do not want to drive from San José to Puerto Viejo, there are now 2 car rental companies in the area; Adobe and Alamo.

- Rental car: you can have the car ready at the airport or delivered to a hotel in San José. A gps or Waze is very handy, especially for navigating your way through San José!! We advise against driving after dark on your first day.
- Public bus: from the “Terminal Atlantico Norte”, Avenida 9, Calle 12, buses leave for Puerto Viejo four times a day. Any taxi driver will know where this terminal is (insist on the taxi meter running!), although often referred to as terminal San Carlos.
