General overview

Casa Mariposa is in the tiny village of Cocles on the Southern Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica. A decidedly Caribbean concoction of perfect beaches, spectacular surfing and laid-back attitude spiced up with the best music, nightlife and restaurant scene on the coast.

Neighbourhood

Casa Mariposa is located in a wonderful, safe neighborhood with lovely cafes and markets nearby. It is a true paradise for nature lovers and those looking to relax in a serene environment. Beaches: Pristine, uncrowded beaches perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and surfing just a short walk away - Nature: Abundant wildlife and hiking trails in the surrounding jungle and two nearby national parks - Local Attractions: Quaint local markets, delicious dining options featuring fresh local cuisine, yoga, kayaking, surfing, snorkelling and so much more

Getting to my home

There are several transportation options to the Caribe Sur. Rental Car - Via Route 32, which is the fastest and suggested if you are coming from San José. We feel comfortable recommending Adobe and Thrifty Rental in San Jose. Shuttle Service - Interbus or Caribe Shuttle Service $59 per adult, $39 kids less than 10 years old. - Interbus https://www.interbusonline.com/ - Caribe Shuttle https://www.caribeshuttle.com/ Public Bus : The Los Caribeños bus terminal is located at Av. Central 13, San José, Calle Blancos. Please keep in mind this bus will not take you to Puerto Viejo, but to Limon. Here you need to transfer bus terminals and take the Mepe bus to Puerto Viejo. The Mepe bus terminal is located at Terminal del Atlántico Note, Barrio México. Buses come to Puerto Viejo and depending on the schedule go all the way to Manzanillo. Last time we checked the total cost was around $20. Getting around in San Jose we recommend you use the official red taxis or Uber. Gecko Trail Rafting Adventure $99 per person, link for additional information - https://geckotrail.com/sec/tour_reserve.php?t=rpac1d&af=pvsat

Getting around
