Overall Ratings & Reviews La Tica y la Gata

Beautiful and spacious. The kitchen allowed us to store and prepare food. Staff helpful with securing transportation to different sites. Nice pool area. Highly recommend.

Very functional and new rooms / property. We loved our stay here, the kitchenette was very well stocked. Stella and the team looked after us so well. Will definitely return. :)

A piece of paradise in puerto viejo. Highly recommended.

Overall a lovely place to stay. The accommodation was lovely, clean and comfortable. The pool was perfect to relax by. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful also with recommendations of where to eat it town. The only slight negatives are there was no safe in the room and the long (about 1km) dirt road to get there, but even with a tiny 2wd car going very slow it was fine. It’s about a 20 minute walk into the main town. Overall I would definitely stay here again though

A great place to stay. Nice little kitchenette and comfortable front porch! A nice pool with a great covered space to hang out at! Close to town and beaches.

What a nice surprise, after a bad stay the night before. I got much needed rest and sleep as it was quiet and comfortable. Clean, with a pool and kitchen. Pleasant owner and staff too. I would return.

This is such a wonderful "gem" of a property. I loved staying here. Every detail of the design is simple, elegant and comfortable. The room was sparkling clean with a well organized and appointed little kitchenette. I could hear the birds and howler monkeys in the jungle behind with easy access to the beach, restaurants and facilities of Puerto Viejo. Thank you to all the great staff. Wonderful.

The property is absolutely gorgeous! The staff and friendly and welcoming. The room was very clean and spacious. Highly recommend!

Lovely clean friendly spot. Stayed here six nights

We had a great stay at La Tica y La Gata! We booked a single room which had a queen size bed and Stella kindly put an extra single bed in the room as we were 2 friends travelling together. The room was really clean and the kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed. The veranda was great for sitting out and felt really private with the palms in front, there was even a hummingbird who came to feed on the flowers. The accommodation is down a long track which is fine for walking in the daytime but can be a little intimidating when it's dark as it's not very well lit in parts so we missed the entrance to the accommodation a couple of times. It's easy to catch a tuktuk from the town though and we're glad we caught one from the bus stop initially - we'd recommend doing this if travelling via public bus. The beds were made and the room cleaned and fresh towels provided every day. The pool area was lovely and the staff were really friendly. The Interbus picked us up directly outside and we were really sad to leave, we would definitely stay longer next time!

Un lugar muy seguro, céntrico y privado. La dueña es súper simpática y a la orden. Gracias de verdad por todo y nos veremos pronto si Dios quiere

We were really relaxed here! Was so private on our patio! Owner was so kind and informative

Lovely place, friendly and helpful staff. Would most definitely stay here again. Rooms were immaculate, the kitchen/dinette area is well stocked with utensils, dishes, and appliances, and the outdoor living room area is comfortable.

Beautiful property. Clean rooms and pool. Would recommend.

It's a cute, clean, comfortable, and peaceful place to stay at. It has a nice pool. Our unit had a well equipped kitchen. The only negative I felt was a relatively long bumpy dirt road that takes you to the property.

Really nice welcoming stay. Well equipped rooms for self catering. Fortunately we had a car as it is quite a walk to restaurants and town down a dark lane. Very relaxing stay.

Down a long winding road on the outskirts of town, you escape to a quiet oasis. The double and single duplex units are perfect for self catering holidays. It is better if you have your own transport, otherwise take a Tuktuk or taxi. The pool and lounge area is a tree lined relaxation spot. The kitchens are either outdoors on the patio or indoors in the spacious units. Bring your own shampoo but bar soap and dish soap are provided. Well equipped with cookware, an air fryer, toaster, kettle, coffee maker and hot plate. Lovely owner and staff. Hot showers but need kettle to boil water for dishes.

Don't do it. The pictures look as though you're staying in a serene location, away from the hustle and bustle of the main road but what you get in nothing but a headache. There were 5 adults in a double occupancy room next to mine partying all day and night, blasting music as early as 8am in the morning to well after midnight. When I messaged the host Christina to complain about the noise she took over an hour to respond. All other hotels in the area had sold out so there was no other place I could go. After I complained to Hotels.com an hour later I noticed the water in my room was shut off. When I message to complain, I was told the city shut off the water but that they fixed it. What was supposed to be a relaxing getaway turned out to be a stressful nightmare. The walls are paper thin so you hear EVERYTHING. It felt like I was staying in a hostel next to a nightclub the noise was so loud. The host also refused to issue a partial refund for the serious inconveniences. You're much better off staying elsewhere.

Great facilities and management. The only downside in my opinion is the long unpaved road that takes you there.

Very friendly owners. Nice swimming pool. Close to downtown.
