Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Isla Violin

We have never said 'wow' 'amazing' 'incredible' so many times, in fact, we ran out of superlatives as we relaxed into this jungle paradise. The family were wonderful, kind, and generous of heart. All very skilled at their work (They didn't make it look like 'work' for them, more like 'life that they love' - Pura Vida). Everything was stunning - from the welcome on the beach when Guillermo met us from the boat from Sierpe, the details in the room, the 3 meals a day of home cooked delicious food - all exceptional! And what a location! 2 minutes from one of the best beaches ever - The best in the area (in our opinion) and almost always deserted - incredible to have this beautiful beach and sea to yourself). In the middle of the jungle with amazing nature coming into the garden - in just one hour we saw toucans, monkeys (one with a baby), couatis, iguana, hummingbirds galore, scarlet macaws, red-rumped tanagers, vultures, parrots, hawks, eagles, (lots of other birds) lizards, butterflies (inc the blue morpho)... all from our balcony! Bring your binoculars, it's worth getting an even closer look at it all. Despite the wildlife being so amazing, the family were an even better part of our stay. Isaac and Guillermo and their beautiful families were incredible, special people, we now have an extended family in Costa Rica! They organized all our incredible tours; Corcovado park, Snorkelling Cano, horseback riding to a remote waterfall where we swam - all for the same price as in Drake Bay or online, if not cheaper. For each one the family arranged for us to be picked up by boat (or horse) from the beach. Note - It is up a hill (to get the views), so expect a bit of an incline to get to the lodges from the beach. It is in the middle of the jungle, so internet is not 5G, but it worked fine for us. We loved Sunset Toucano lodge - as you can tell by us booking for 3 nights & staying for 8!

Great place and service. Very centrally located. Great!

We had a very nice time at Morpho House. Due to a last minute cancellation, we had to reserve the house on the very day and Valeria was quick to respond. She also sent us all the useful information. Having been welcomed personally on arrival, we also had a personal check out. There is everything you need in the kitchen as well as a pleasant sitting area. Besides, the bathroom and bedroom are spacious. Altogether, a very comfortable house in a quiet area: we would strongly recommend staying there.

We absolutely loved everything here! It was the best of the best of our stays in Costa Rica! It is ran by a local family with great hospitality, Rafa and Esther. We loved the peace & quiet, leash greenery around, the food cooked by Esther, the animals around, the welcoming atmosphere. Take the full board option, it is fully worth it! The cabin had a big porched with roof over it, so you can enjoy the outside also if it rains. There were so many animals to admire from there! Scarlet macaws, two kinds of toucans, soo many birds, also capuchin & spider monkey. There is also a 3 toed sloth on a tree at their place! The beach is just 100m away. They will show you which part is safe for swimming. Agujitas is 1:30hr trek away via San Josecito trail. We arranged our boat in and out from/to Sierpe plus a day trip to Corcovado park with a great local guide via them. The fan in our room was strong and we used it on a minimal volume during the night, so AC is not needed. There wifi was strong. There is really nothing to complain about. We stayed there for 5 nights and felt we could have stayed more.

Very pretty, comfortable, quiet, perfectly clean and beautifully decorated accommodation. The view of the sea and the birds is pleasant and I slept very well. Shirley, Claudio, Cristopher, Kim and Jefer made me feel very welcome and did their best to please me. Everything was just perfect! Thanks again to the whole team. I hope to see you soon!

Special place. The house is very basic, large and comfortable. The location is perfect for tours departing from Sierpe. Drake is also not too far, about 1.30 hr by good dirt road, and Jimenez at 1.15. Simone and family are very nice.

Had a wonderful stay & experience! Super friendly & warm family! It was a pleasure discovering your finca. Place is gorgeous, located in the middle of the forest. Gardens are vast, lots of flora & beautiful wildlife (lots of birds, parrots, hummingbird).. It was a nice little break. Cabin is huge, it is rustic but it is nicely equipped with everything you might need. I shared a dinner with the family & the volunteers helping on the farm, delicious food cooked by the mum, it was lovely. They were very helpful, arranged a last min night tour with David Garro that was great for herping & photographing wildlife. It felt good to finally feel like sharing with locals & experience it. I would highly recommend anyone this place if you wish to get immersed in the culture and find some quietness & nature.

We loved our stay. The owner cristian and his wife were amazing people. So helpful. Loved the accomodation. Was basic but very comfortable. Good air-conditioning for when it was needed. The location was so relaxing. So much wild life around. Is about a 40 to 60 minute walk to drake town depending on how fast you walk. The walk itself is very beautiful. Highly recommend staying here. They serve tasty food and drinks as well.

The owner washed our clothes for free.
