Located in Dos Brazos, Bolita Trails and Lodging features a garden and a bar. The hostel provides both free WiFi and free private parking.

Guests at the hostel will be able to enjoy activities in and around Dos Brazos, like hiking. We stayed for over a week and saw an incredible amount of wildlife. Every day we saw something different and amazing whether it was monkeys, a sloth, invertebrates, birds (including toucans, swallow tailed kites, hummingbirds, trogons, woodpeckers, parrots, puffbirds, cuckoos), snakes, frogs. Ron, Val and the team do a really great job of maintaining the hostel and the trails. For such a remote location right in the middle of the rainforest the hostel is extremely well equipped including the kitchen, it looks picturesque, and is comfortable. I highly recommend staying here if you want to be truly immersed in nature and see a lot of wildlife.

Monteverde Ecological Sanctuary is an 8-minute walk from Hostel Cattleya - Monteverde, Costa. The nearest airport is Tambor Airport, 67 km from the property. Excellent staff and hosts One of the best kitchens I have seen in any hostel Great common area Very clean Comfortable room, and clean bath room with hot showers While the main bus terminal is a ten minutes walk, the public bus from Monteverde to San Jose stops at a place one minute away from the hostel. Hence there is no need to go to the main bus terminal Very safe and access is secured by keys to the Hall and then to the room Lockers available for storing any valuables Great value for money

Located in Manuel Antonio, on the way to the beach (1.5 km from the town of Quepos). Hostel Plinio offers an outdoor pool, shared kitchen, lounge areas, game room, restaurant and free WiFi.

Dorms, private rooms with shared bathroom and family rooms at the Hostel have a balcony with ocean views. Staying in the hostel Plinio was like a paradise. The surroundings, the way the hostel is set up in the greenery on the hill, being able to spot parrots flying around (especially around 5pm) and enjoying an amazing view of the Pacific was incredible. Really, if you are looking for a peaceful and tranquil place, feeling like you are in symbiosis with nature, come to this hostel. I loved the room I was staying in (Room 1, but I am pretty sure all rooms have a similar set up). There is plenty of room for your things (lockers and around the beds) as well as a balcony and a rooftop providing a gorgeous view of the Pacific and sunsets. The bed was very comfy! As it is a bit further away from the centre of Quepos (15-20 mins walk), many animals live in the surroundings and as they are often noctural, it can be quite noisy during the night. However, it is nothing that earbuds could not solve. (I am a light sleeper). There is a good transport connection to Manuel Antonio (bus coming every 30-40 mins on the road so watch out:) it costs 300 or 400 colones, as far as I remember. Manuel Antonio park was beautiful. I didnt have a tour guide and managed to see so many animals! You also find a bus station in Quepos, which provides a bus transport to many places around Costa Rica. I highly recommend staying in this hostel!
