General Overview
Very spacious treehouse style villa with 2 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms & private plunge pool. Casa Bromelia is immersed in a jungle garden with a river & lots of wildlife.
The Space
Elevated to capture the rainforest view and with spacious accommodation for five, Casa Bromelia is the perfect place to holiday with friends or family. It can also be a wonderfully romantic escape for just the two of you.
Casa Bromelia is your luxurious holiday home from which to explore the Caribbean coast: snorkel coral reefs from white sandy beaches, take a horseback trip through the rainforest, surf the Salsa Brava, swing through the rainforest canopy, or simply bird watch from your pool while the barbecue cooks dinner.
Guest Access
* All housing space is elevated, about 1 floor above ground level - only accessible through staircase
* Private plunge pool with terrace, loungers, barbecue and outdoor dining furniture on ground level
Notes
You will have the entire house and plunge pool to yourselves, with a private parking spot. Apart from that, you can wander around in our well-kept 2 hectare garden/rain forest park and discover all the wonderful fauna and flora of the Caribbean. We will gladly help you to spot animals or to show you the path to the river.

Neighbourhood
The Caribbean coast of Costa Rica is where the rainforest meets the ocean. This area is stunningly beautiful with lots of beaches, and plenty of nature and wildlife to enjoy.
Geckoes Lodge is situated in the small settlement of Cocles, at 4 km from Puerto Viejo. Here you can feel miles from anywhere, but you have everything on your doorstep. Cocles has numerous restaurants and supermarkets, and easy access to the beach. It is a quiet haven where the tropical beauty induces relaxation and embracing the good life: 'Pura Vida'.
Getting to my home
SJO - San José International Airport is 260km away - that is a 3-6 hour drive, depending on the weather and traffic :-)
1 hour from our home is Limón National airport.
