About Costa Rica Puerto Viejo

'Geckoes Lodge is situated on Margarita Road in Cocles, 3 kilometres south of the village of Puerto Viejo and 1 kilometre inland. Puerto Viejo stretches along the the south Caribbean coast of Costa Rica and encompasses the neighbourhoods of Cocles, Playa Chiquita, Punta Uva and Manzanillo, where the road ends. The small settlement of Cocles has numerous restaurants and supermarkets and easy access to the beach. Quiet and relaxed Cocles is home to both locals and foreigners and the best restaurant on this coast!

Although each neighbourhood has its own character, the entire area has a distinct Caribbean atmosphere due to the historical influx of Jamaican settlers. This is illustrated in the prevalence of Caribbean cuisine, reggae music, Rasta and Patois being spoken alongside English and Spanish.

However, this 'Garden of Eden' has recently attracted people from all over the world resulting in an international mix of cultures reflected in the variety of restaurants! Far less developed than the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, the Caribbean coast is verdant and lush with great tracts of pristine rainforest bordering the spectacular beaches. The pace of life is 'tranquilo' and being surrounded by such tropical beauty lends itself to relaxation and embracing the good life: 'Pura Vida'.

About me: We are the owners and managers of 'Geckoes', but also permanent residents as we live here... yes it's as lovely as it looks! The creation of Geckoes was a 2 year project bringing new life to an old cacao plantation after we became enchanted with this part of Costa Rica.With international backgrounds in hospitality education and tourism, we decided it was time for a new adventure. Ably assisted by caretaker team Jose & Tita, 'Geckoes' is the culmination of a dream to create private and luxurious holiday accommodation whilst maintaining the beauty and minimising the impact on the surrounding rainforest and its inhabitants. 'Geckoes' was so named to symbolise the symbiotic relationship possible between wildlife and humans. Committed to Sustainable development, eco-friendly practices and environmental consciousness our operating practices and the houses have been designed to fit the landscape rather than vice versa. It remains our greatest adventure and a great privilege to share with our guests who are invariably as enchanted with this area as we are.We look forward to welcoming you at 'Geckoes' and helping to make your holiday unforgettable.
