Love the ceiling fan and hot water shower! Nice mosaic artwork and native embroidery pieces decorating rooms. Reasonably priced... Could have a continental breakfast included though. Helpful receptionists. More

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Cabinas Guarana. After traveling around Costa Rica for 6 days, we ended our trip with 3 nights at Cabinas and it was by far the best place we stayed in the whole trip. The rooms are simple and comfortable, with a private porch/hammock for each cabina. Service people were outstanding, so kind and helpful,... More

Such fond memories of Hotel Guarana! Strictly speaking it is quite serviceable, the rooms are nice, there is a kitchen area for making a quick bite to eat or breakfast, fans, hot water, a safe and even a treehouse. The place is kept as clean as one can in a remote area in a tropical jungle. You can do laundry... More

My stay at this place during my study abroad trip during the winter months was so awesome. I loved the chilled, relaxed atmosphere of this place. I loved the owners, and I also loved how close it was to everything. The place is decorated awesomely with bright colors and really has a true tropical, Costa Rican feel. And every room... More

We arrived in Puerto Viejo at night after a very long bus ride. When we arrived at Hotel Guarana we were extremely happy we had booked there (we just emailed them the day before we arrived as were able to get a room). The owner, Paolo is super friendly and made us feel at home right away. All of the... More

I stayed at Hotel Guarana three years ago and have nothing but great memories of my stay. Im actually going back in April and have already booked my stay. Aside from it being a clean, comfortable room, its just beautiful. The decor of the hotel is beautiful with colors and a little piece of the rainforest in the middle of... More

Cant ask for much more than here. The prices are great, the hotel is a block off of the main strip and close to good restaurants and bars. The room I was in was simple, but decorated which was nice. I only needed it as a place to sleep and shower, and it was perfect for that. What makes this... More
