We stayed at Cabinas Bucus and Tours with Meltema and Omar in April 2013, and had a wonderful experience. They are located one block back from the beach, down a lovely laurel-lined path. The room was good value, and suited our needs. Loved listening to the howler monkeys and other wildlife at night. Omar was an excellent tour guide, and... More

We chose Manzanillo because we wanted to be off the beaten track. We were really happy with our choice of accomodation. We spent one night in a room for 4 people whihc had its own kitchenette which was really handy. We then moved to two twin/double rooms with balcony, hammock and shared kitchen area. Felt surounded by nature. Beautiful peaceful... More

We enjoyed our room, where I could lie in bed and watch howler monkeys; we appreciated our delightful and attentive hosts Meltema and Omar. It is reasonably priced, immaculate and minutes from restaurants and the beach. The beach is miles of sand and safe swimming with tide pools to explore. The jungle hike with Omar very worthwhile. It does not... More

My husband and i spent two weeks at Cabinas Bucus and Tours. The diversity of wildlife and flora, the beach and jungle, what more could you want. We rented one of the apartments so we could cook for ourselves but that didn't stop us from trying most of the local Sodas. Omar and Meltema were excellent hosts, they and Basma... More

My fiance and I ended up staying a week at bucus, it was such a lovely spot. Amazing wildlife can be watched from the balcony of the rooms- hummingbirds, butterflies, vultures, monkeys... You can hear the ocean as well, just a minutes walk away. The trail from here to punta mona, though muddy, is really wonderful, all primary jungle. Don't... More

Cabinas Bucus is the perfect place to experience "Pura Vida!" We stayed for 5 days and really enjoyed Manzanillo; the wildlife, sea, food and Ticos. The cabinas are clean, sweet, private, and enclosed by wildlife. Bucus also gives great tours. He took us out into the bush to learn about local flora and fauna. Can't recommend this place highly enough,... More

We stayed at Bucus in early December 2012. We loved it! Our second floor cabina was clean, spacious, and never too hot. The shower was huge! Every morning we woke up to the sound of howler monkeys and the beautiful beach was a short walk away. Meltema was very helpful and accommodating. She helped us book travel to our next... More

We stayed five days at Cabinas Bucus and were really pleased with the place. Manzanillo itself is wonderful and the cabinas are well located: on the side of the village where it is peaceful but not far from the beach. Our room was nicely decorated and tidy, with a lovely hammock to sit down and watch birds such as colibris.... More

After traveling through Costa Rica we stayed ten days in Cabinas Bucus to relax and doing a diving course in Punta Uva. Laying in the hammock with jungle next door was really nice. The owner was very friendly and helped a lot with giving information and providing laundry service. We were even allowed to use their telephone to arrange our... More

The cabins are very nice and its only a 2 minutes walk to long Beach with many palms. Its good for swimming or walking along the coastline. Not so crowded as in puerto viejo. There are yummy Sodas too. The Owners are very helpful with organising travelling in cr. The Jungle Tour with Omar was much fun and we got... More
