What Guests Say About Their Stay

This property has amazing potential! I was literally the only guest there and not notified that they were about to start a long-needed renovation. Still, I was treated with 5-star hospitality. Luciane made me a wonderful breakfast and there was a voucher for use at the lovely restaurant, El Arado, a short walk up the road. Large, clean pool. The rooms are organized into duplex cabanas on a hillside so fair warning to guests with mobility issues. Can’t wait to see what they do with the place!

I enjoyed the lay out of the property. The pools were nice and clean. The staff was incredible. The location was fantastic if you want to be close to the action but not right in the middle of it. Also we saw Macaw’s, Iguanas and monkey’s along with other wild life right from our patio. Also there is an incredible secluded beach within just a short hike from the hotel. I would definitely stay here again. Great value for the price.

Adrian, the person who prepares and serves breakfast, was very friendly. On top of that, we saw macaws in the trees by the pool. The place was a bit out of the way and quiet, which we like, with nice rooms and a pool. You feel like you’re in the forest. We would definitely go back. Highly recommended. Very affordable rooms too and a short drive to everything you’d want to see. Only five kilometers to Manuel Antonio Park and one kilometer to Quepos, the main town. You can hear howler monkeys too, early in the morning. The breakfast area it outside under a veranda. Really nice place to start the day.

Sadly our trip was not great The layout of this place is really very cool, little casitas sprinkled about but they have no communication after 7:00 p.m. and driving into quepos is always filled with delays when coming from San Jose. As a result we had to forfeit one night and find another hotel because nobody responded to our messages.

Very plesant staff. Older facility that is getting some loving care. Pool and resteraunt area very nice. Rooms are basic and being worked on as well. Good location for both Manuel Antonio and Quepos Marina area. Good value for those who do not need 5 star pampering

Bongo is a really cool place to stay if you like to see wildlife! I saw squirrel monkeys, many many white faced monkeys, iguanas and parrots during our stay! We also liked the double bungalows beside eachother. The staff are so nice and we felt safe! Downsides- the breakfast is terrible- cold coffee, watery eggs and hot dogs every morning. I couldn't eat it. No water machines and you have to walk 10-15 minutes downhill/uphill to the nearest convenience store.

Bongo is a nice, simple property with a pool. It was quiet and relaxing. The staff was friendly but not helpful when incidents came up, and they were limited with info on things to do. Our room was clean but there was a strange smell around our bungalow. Their breakfasts are varied and nice. Their dinner menu is limited. Overall the property gets a 3/5.
