If there's a better place to stay in puerto Viejo I'd be hard pressed to find it. It's like visiting your favorite aunt and uncle in paradise. They've been so helpful and comforting. First day here Janet explained how to use the money (we had no clue.) She gave me a bandaid and antibiotic cream for my blister, drove us to town in her golf cart, fed us, and just made us feel comfortable in a place that she KNOWS is out of our comfort zone. It's just a good way to ease yourself in if you've never been here. The beach is super close and the house is off the beaten path. A little ways to get into town but there's plenty restaurants close by and a grocery store for you to buy things to cook yourself in the kitchen....just do yourself a favor and stop searching. You're not going to find a better place to stay or better people to stay with!

The two plus weeks we spent here were just wonderfull. It was a very relaxing and safe place to stay. We could take a bus to town or on down the beach if we were so inclined. There is a small grocery store very close that was nice. The beach is only a few minutes walk. Janet and Nic were the best hosts. We want to come back next year. I have stayed in a lot of places and this was definately top of the list!

Staying at Angler's Lair was a unique experience you likely won't find elsewhere. We experienced the combination of being surrounded by nature yet secure in our accommodations, plus having attentive hosts who provided the perfect amount of privacy. The suite was spotless, gorgeous and absolutely one-of-a-kind with artistic and natural touches throughout. The location also was perfect - just far enough from the 'bustle' of Puerto Viejo, and a short walk to groceries and good restaurants nearby, as well as beautiful beaches. Janet and Nick are wonderful people who genuinely want others to experience this piece of paradise they've carved out for themselves.

We spent some days in Janet's beautiful house and it was just amazing!
The house was very clean and the details of decoration were just unique. The bathroom is spectacular with its wooden washing table and the cute little mosaics everywhere. The outdoor shower has warm water and makes you feel part of the nature.
The open kitchen is well equiped , so you can prepare easyly your own food at home.
Janet and nick,Americans, are great hosts, the live in the upper part of the house. They were very helpful and gentle.
The beach of Chiquita , for me one of the nicest in the area of puerto viejo, it's just a 3 min foot walk away. There is a grocery and several restaurants nearby in easy walk distance.
We would defenetly recommend this accommodation and hope to come back!
