Lugar soñado. Muy tranquilo, prolijo, limpio. La atención 10/10. Wanda es encantadora, muy amable y siempre dispuesta a ayudar con lo que sea necesario. […] Hemos venido por dos noches y nos hemos quedado 7, nos sentimos cautivados por el lugar. Acceso a una pequeña playa privada para el hotel y vecinos cercanos. Los desayunos que sirven son magníficos.

Caribbean Flow and the owner/operators are beautiful, spiritual, tranquil and peaceful. They make you feel right at home. The location and vibe here is so fantastic you want to hang out and never leave. The African Dance class was fun and energetic […] I HIGHLY recommend that you go to Caribbean Flow if you're ever on the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica.

Charming Caribbean boutique hotel hidden away under the lush canopy of the Costa Rican jungle where it meets the beach it provides the perfect ingredients for a relaxing beach holiday. The secluded beach is just a few steps away from the hotel […] She even gave us a cooking course that we thoroughly enjoyed. We'd happily return many times over.
