Hotel Bugabutik

Puerto Viejo

Good to Know

Hotel Bugabutik offers a tranquil, eco-style retreat in Puerto Viejo, ideally situated three blocks from Playa Cocles. This intimate property provides a quieter base outside the town's main bustle, perfect for those seeking a balanced coastal getaway. Guests can enjoy a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, and on-site dining, with breakfast included in all Studio Rooms, Superior Bungalows, and Junior Suites. Each accommodation features air conditioning, cable television, a fan, and a private terrace, ensuring comfort after beach days or excursions.


A leafy pause near Playa Cocles

Three blocks from the Caribbean, Hotel Bugabutik places you near Playa Cocles while keeping a quieter base outside the bustle of Puerto Viejo. Its natural setting suits a trip built around beach days and time to unwind afterward. Start with breakfast, head toward the coast, then return to a terrace when the day calls for a slower pace.

A poolside pause and room choices

A swimming pool, Jacuzzi and sauna make it appealing to leave an afternoon at the hotel. The restaurant and bar add convenience to those quieter hours, and Wi-Fi helps with practical plans. You can enjoy Puerto Viejo’s town life during an outing, then come back to a more secluded atmosphere.

Studio Rooms suit an individual traveler or couple, while Superior Bungalows add space. Junior Suites provide another larger option. All three categories include breakfast, air conditioning, cable television, a fan and a terrace; use the individual room details to decide how much space your party needs.

Bugabutik’s intimate atmosphere suits couples or small families who want to be outside Puerto Viejo’s noise but still make town part of the trip. Terraces give you somewhere to pause after breakfast or after returning from the coast. The staff can share local knowledge when you are deciding how to balance beach time with an outing, allowing the hotel’s quieter setting to remain part of the experience rather than filling every hour with plans.

Explore the Southern Caribbean

Cocles is known for surf, and snorkeling or diving excursions offer other ways to explore the Southern Caribbean. Let local conditions and your interests guide those plans. Bugabutik’s appeal is the balance between access to the coast and a small, leafy retreat for the hours when you would rather stay put.

What to consider when choosing Hotel Bugabutik

  • A small eco-style property outside Puerto Viejo’s bustle suits couples or small families seeking a quieter base near Playa Cocles rather than staying amid town nightlife.
  • The Caribbean is three blocks away, making beach days accessible while the hotel remains an inland retreat—choose it with that short journey in mind.
  • A pool, Jacuzzi and sauna give you several ways to unwind after a coastal outing, while a restaurant and bar let you keep an evening close to your accommodation.
  • Breakfast is included with Studio Rooms, Superior Bungalows and Junior Suites, providing a straightforward start to surf days or other excursions.
  • Studios suit an individual traveler or couple; Superior Bungalows and Junior Suites offer more space. AC, cable TV, fans and terraces provide familiar comforts across these categories.
  • Surfing at Cocles and snorkeling or diving outings let you explore the Southern Caribbean; plan around local conditions rather than expect guaranteed marine encounters.
  • Wi-Fi and staff help with local recommendations make the practical side of the stay easier, while the natural setting encourages time to pause between plans.

Steve C.

We loved this hotel. The owner was so helpful and kind, as was her staff.

Amy B.

Hotel Bugabutik and the owner Andrea exceeded our expectations. We were prepared to find rustic accommodations on the Caribbean side of Costa Rica, and pleasantly surprised to find comfortable beds and air conditioning instead! The location was quiet and a short walk from Playa Cocles and great restaurants. Lovely poolside area and wonderful staff and breakfast. When we had a problem opening our room safe, a staff member fixed it immediately. We were very impressed. Thanks, everyone!
