    We loved the well-maintained cabins and the beautiful decorations throughout the hostel, including fairy lights and murals. The bathrooms and showers were clean and in good condition. The overall atmosphere was calm and relaxing, and the property itself was impressive. The food served at the hostel was delicious, and the music played added to the overall comfort. The location was perfect, with a stunning beach just a 5-minute walk away. There were also amazing restaurants in the area, making it a safe and convenient place for families or female travelers. The staff, especially the owner, were incredibly kind and friendly. We felt immersed in nature and it was great value for our money.

    The location of this hotel is superb, with Marino Ballena National Park just a short walk away. The staff at the hotel are friendly and accommodating, providing excellent service throughout our stay. The shared facilities, such as the bar and kitchen, were well-maintained and convenient. Additionally, the individual cabins offered a cozy and comfortable sleeping arrangement for a reasonable price.

    It that the hotel did not have air conditioning. The lack of AC made it difficult to sleep comfortably, especially during the hot and humid nights in the area.

    The hostel is located just a short walk away from one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica. Many guests have praised the friendly and helpful staff, creating a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The treehouse style rooms add a unique and cool touch to the overall appearance of the hostel.

    Some guests have mentioned that the bar service could be improved, as they found the staff to be curt and dismissive at times.

    Value for money was excellent, with clean rooms and a unique jungle layout. The location was perfect, just a short walk to a fine beach and surrounded by amazing restaurants. The staff were friendly and cute, creating a safe and relaxed atmosphere.

    The hotel breakfast menu could use some improvement.

    We loved the unique layout of cabins, dorms, and tree houses nestled in the jungle. The well-equipped kitchen allowed for multiple users, and the eco-friendly focus was evident through their recycling and sustainable practices. The friendly staff made us feel welcome, and the on-site bar/restaurant had great food and a lively atmosphere. The close proximity to the beach was a definite bonus, and the hammock on the porch provided a perfect spot to relax.

    We felt right at home at Flutterby House, and there was nothing to complain about.

    This laidback hostel offers a unique experience with Swiss Family Robinson style treehouses scattered throughout the funky space. Tons of hammocks, couches, and a communal kitchen provide ample relaxation opportunities. The staff is very friendly and helpful, providing information on bus and tide schedules. The bar serves delicious and reasonably priced food, creating a social atmosphere. The location is close to a lesser-known entrance to the beach, making it convenient for surfboard rentals.

    The rooms can be quite humid and hot, which may cause some discomfort during the stay.

    Tucked away in a lush jungle setting, this hostel offers an authentic experience of being one with nature. The open-air rooms provide stunning views of the surrounding greenery, creating a serene and peaceful ambiance. The friendly and knowledgeable staff are always ready to assist, whether it's organizing tours or providing local insights. Additionally, the restaurant serves delicious food with generous portions, ensuring guests are well-fed during their stay.

    The cleanliness of the bathrooms did not meet expectations.

    I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The unique layout of cabins, dorms, and tree houses in the midst of the jungle made it a nice experience. The staff was nice and helpful, and the hotel encouraged sustainable practices such as reusing and recycling. The kitchen was spacious and well-equipped, perfect for multiple users. I also appreciated the lively bar, but was grateful that it shut down by 10 pm. The hotel's proximity to the beach was a major highlight, and it was great to have other travelers around who were open to socializing and exploring together. the hotel provided a fantastic atmosphere and great value for money.

    Not obvious to find.

    The hostel offered a unique and eco-friendly experience with a variety of accommodations nestled within the jungle. The communal area was lively and comfortable, and there were options to either cook in the large kitchen or enjoy the delicious food at the on-site restaurant. The staff was friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Additionally, the location was conveniently close to a beautiful beach.

    There were a few drawbacks to our stay. The Wi-Fi in the bedrooms was not always reliable, which was frustrating.

    I recently stayed at Flutterby House for a few days and it was a fantastic experience. The cabins and overall space were beautifully decorated, creating a calming atmosphere. The bathrooms and showers were clean and well-maintained. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the beach, and the hostel rented high-quality surfboards at reasonable prices. The common area with the bar was cozy and stylish, perfect for enjoying local craft beer and meeting other travelers. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious. a unique and wonderful place to stay.

    100% Recommend this hotel.
