My sister and I came here while travelling through Costa Rica. We made a search on TripAdvisor, and decided to come check it out. The staff here was unreal - they were so helpful with everything and anything that we asked. We stayed in a more private room, with two beds - but opted for the no A/C. There were... More

I really enjoyed the Buddha house hostel as it had everything you need to stay in Jaco. It's on the strip but tucked behind a little bit so you're never bothered by what's going on outside of the hostel (except for maybe when the clubs are loud on a Saturday night- and still we didn't notice.) The staff is very... More

Buddha House is a really nice place to stay. We stayed 8 nights, because we felt totaly at home. The stuff is really friendly and the music is the best! You have pool and a kitchen, well equipped. The location is good. There is a supermarket and the beach very closed. Only the nights are a bit noisy and there... More

I came here after 3 months of travelling just to stop and see my friends for a couple of days. I did not plan on staying here for long since Jacó is not really the nicest town in Costa Rica. My friend recommended Buddha House so I booked a room with shared bathroom. The rate is really good once you... More

Marasal (sp?) was super nice. The place is immaculately well kept and the covered pool is really great for afternoon shade-chilling. Its social but not too social--unless you're in the shared dorm I guess. Its also really well located and Jaco's beach is right across the street.

I stayed here with a friend and we really enjoyed Buddha House and the staff. Its a hostel but its clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The hostel is located in the heart of downtown Jaco. There is loads of shopping and other amenities very close. Its also and easy walk of 2-3 blocks from the beach.... More

Nothing bad to say about this place! I arrived in Jaco for what was supposed to be a 1 night stop in between San Jose & the peninsula, however, it turned into my home base for the entire trip, & I'd attribute that to the comfortability of the Buddha House. I found this place just by walking up the main... More

I planned to stay only one night in Jaco, but then I found the Buddha house! I liked it so much, so I stayed for 2 nights. Good clean room with AC, nice little swimming pool, good kitchen, I even used the BBQ twice! Would stay here again!

We first stayed at another Hostel in Jaco, but had to leave because it was horrible. We found Buddah house and it was like a tiny little oasis in the middle of Jaco! The atmosphere is awesome, the staff is incredibly friendly and we felt at home. The rooms are all clean and large. There are showers with hot water.... More
