The hostess was nice but due to having no windows it was extremely hot in the room at night. Also the owner has dogs that like to bark when anyone drove by no matter the hour. Luckily the hostess worked with us and let us cancel our reservation to find a more quiet place that had windows and ac.

It was a great stay. I think initially after a day of travel we were jarred by the lack of ac but honestly you adjust easily. The host was very friendly and helpful. A very calm relaxing stay, nice place to go to if you truly want to detach from regular life.

It was quiet and comfortable. The charm of the room made the stay very relaxing. We didn’t miss not having a television. The internet was slow so don’t expect to get any work done if you planned on working instead of enjoying the nearby beach.

Well this is my first time on that side of Costa Rica and my overall opinion of the property was OK the hot water worked and neither one of our rooms and nobody seem to care to fix it the breakfast was a little bit pricey most places include a free breakfast The beach was black sand not a very pretty beach no stores are close by and the walk to town is a good one I probably cannot stay there again due to the fact that it was too far from anywhere to eat but for the price it wasn’t bad the owner was a friendly lady

La cabaña es muy amplia y cómoda, rodeada de naturaleza. Los dueños son muy amables. La zona en general es muy caliente y húmeda por lo que se requiere de un buen ventilador (aire acondicionado casi no manejan en la zona), desafortunadamente el de nuestra habitación no funcionaba y al ser un lugar tan alejado de la capital no pudieron mandarlo a arreglar.

Relaxing beachfront stay
A lovely, relaxing place to stay right on the beachfront. Stayed in the cottage and it is very well equipped for a little getaway home from home, while the regular rooms seem perfectly comfortable for short trips or where self catering option isn't needed. The owner, Isabelle, is also very friendly and welcoming. Would recommend!

Quiet spot
Quiet location across from a deserted beach and 5 minute drive from town. Full kitchen. The beds and linens are not the most comfortable. Expected a little more for the price.

Isabel the owner and Maria on her staff is wonderful. We had a lot of mosquitoes in our cabin at night and we all spent a restless night itching from the bites.

Tranquillo
Really quiet place except for waves crashing in the distance! Setting between beach and ocean is beautiful. Minor issues with cockroach and damaged toilet but rooms are spacious and clean. The road along the coast is very rough. Would have stayed longer but for drive into Cahuita. Isabel and Roberta were very pleasant and attentive. Breakfasts were great and a small bar is available. No restaurant on site.

Beautiful place to stay! The staff and resident animals are amazing. So many things to go do and see nearby. We booked a horseback ride and they picked us up right on the beach across from the bnb. The beds are a bit incomfortable so, that could use an upgrade, but otherwise would HIGHLY recommend! 🤘

Amazing accommodations. Very friendly and accommodating host. One of the closer locations to beach than most other hotels on this street. Beach is right there. Loved to hear the surf all night and tropical birds all day. Bring food for the Kitchen . Not many places to stop and eat if you arrive after dark. This is truly a magical place. Sloth right in our tree in front of our room

Gecko fights and cool nights
Kenaki Lodge is a nice place in a nice setting. It is within walking distance of a pleasant sitting area on the beach. Cahuita has several grocery stores and great restaurants. The bungalow where we stayed had a full kitchen, with dishes, coffee pot, fridge, microwave, toaster oven, dish washing supplies etc. and a nice 4 place wood dining table. The hosts can cook you breakfast if you're not inclined to cook for yourself. The bathrooms were separate, with a shower on one side of the studio and the toilet and sink on the other side. There was one king bed. We had nice hot water in a very elegantly tiled shower. Because the surf was high making snorkeling and fishing difficult in mid-Feb, our hosts offered to take us on a fishing trip on a near by river. Unfortunately, the trip was cancelled. I'm sure it would have been a unique adventure! My only complaint with this facility is that it needs a deep cleaning to get ahead of the evidence left by the large community of geckos living in the ceiling tiles, cupboards, and drapes. As with ALL the places we stayed in Costa Rica, one must be cognizant of crumbs and sugary things to keep the ants from invading. There is a nice porch with a pleasant sitting area to enjoy a beverage with friends while listening to the ocean waves. Overall, it was a nice experience.

Excellent
Small run B&B run by a very charminging and friendly couple. Staff very friendly. Fresh towels and room cleaned daily. Breakfast was plentiful to keep your hunger at bay until later in the day. Close to everything you are looking to do or visit as long as you have your own transport. Offered good discounts on some of the local activity but only did a couple as we had a car and knew what we wanted to do ourselves. Deftly recommend the night boat trip with roberto (Isobel’s husband). The local national park is a must as you will see all the animals there that you have came to Costa Rica to see. I would definitely book here again if I came back to the area as they made our stay a very fond and special memory which we cherish for always. Thank you Isobel and roberto for making a part of holiday so special. The only negative was that we didn’t get to do any snorkeling because of the sea conditions but that’s out of anyone’s hands. 10 out of 10 and would definitely recommend anyone else to stay here

Nice rooms, nice staff
it was a very nice place to stay, a little difficult to find when we arrived cause it is a little far from Cahuita and in a dark road. People didn't know about it so they could not give us directions. I used GPS and still had some uncertainty I was driving on the right road. The staff is very nice, very friendly. fresh food every morning and nice coffee, along with gallo pinto and eggs. Some dust was falling off the ceiling, but nothing to worry about.
