Guest Reviews
- sanchez (10/5): - Excelente vista
- Iris (10/5): - Excelente atención buena relación precio calidad Por ser fin de semana largo presas para llegar
- Jinery (10/5): - Las instalaciones son muy lindas, se nota el amor y el tiempo que han invertido en este lugar. Piscina pequeña especial para niños. Pensé que era más grande
- Isabel (10/5): - Besondere detailverliebte Unterkunft mit tollen Gastgebern und gemütlichem Pool! Sehr zu empfehlen
- Rodriguez (10/5): - La tranquilidad que ofrece el lugar Un poquitos falta de televisión o tecnología
- Megan (9/5): Chillest pirate themed little hotel in a cute village away from the hustle and bustle with views - At first glance the hotel listing might seem big and kitschy. In reality, its a cute very chill-vibed hotel with a lovely view of the islands and blue water, access to local beach (not sandy or clear but actually quite swimmable, no waves, locals hang out there too!) as well as boat dock to sit on and enjoy the view. The birds such as parrots were cool to watch at dusk. Free pool table. We had a fridge and microwave, balcony with sofa inside the "cavern". Free tico breakfast was very nice and the dinner was simple but quality too (pepper sauce pork chop and fish).
We did LOVE the pirate vibe though and wish we had time to stay longer in the area. Less chaotic than Nosara The shower plumbing needs a service in the romantic room. Just some new seals and washers would make a world of difference.
- Carolina (1/5): -
- Iva (1/5): - Es una estafa, el lugar es pésimo, sus habitaciones un asco, no dan lo que ofrecen, ponen una habitación bella y es mentira, ni siquiera existe. Booking me decepcionó porque esto es un estafa de lugar,
Iba a disfrutar con mis tíos y mi esposo el lugar y no existía la habitación que reservamos,
El duelo nos devolvió el dinero, pero luego para buscar un lugar para quedarnos, no encontrábamos, fue una pesadilla. Toooooooooodoooooo
- Linda (8/5): -
- Kroeker (10/5): M-arrrrrr-velous!!! - The ambience of the resort was incredible. Due to complications in travel plans, we didn't arrive until 10pm. The man working stayed late for us in order to let us in past closing time (we had someone call ahead). After a full day of flights, rental car problems, construction and travel (including an unexpected ferry ride from Puntarenas at the last minute) with 2 girls, 8 and 10 years old, we were feeling exhausted and a little defeated. After all of this, arriving at La Perla felt like magic! The host put the outdoor lights on for us and the girls splashed and played in the cave-pools until almost midnight (luckily, there were no other guests at the time to disturb). They explored all of the little alcoves, finding doors to various rooms up cave-like stairways. The room was so much better than expected, spacious and clean with cool carved bunk beds and 2 double beds as well as a little kitchenette. I can't say much about the area as we had to leave early to catch a 7:30am ferry out, but the resort itself was absolutely fabulous!!! The kids LOVED it and I think it was the favourite room out of our 3 weeks in Costa Rica. It also had it's own little outdoor terrace with private swimming pool. So cool in every way!
- Kayla (9/5): I loved the staff, the included breakfast, and the overall space. - The staff was amazing. It’s a family owned business and they really made you feel comfortable. I didn’t love the beds 😭
The ac could have been better
- Navarro Chaverri (10/5): -
- Zanete Eglite (9/5): - Kids loved this place! 🐒😊
- James (10/5): Fun themed hotel, with great rooms and nice food - This is a great property, with a fun pirate theme. Our room was one of the best during our stay in Costa Rica. The host was friendly and charming. It was a great location, just a few hundred metres from the ferry port. The breakfast and dinner were very good. You can see the bioluminescence in the water after dark, too. I can’t think of any downside, other than the beach is not great, but that’s not what we were looking for, it’s still pretty to look at.
- Johnny (1/5): - Había reservado por Boking , mi sorpresa q cuando llegue al hotel me estaban cobrando muchísimas plata , me hicieron anular mi reservación y hacer una nueva con un monto muchísimo mayor al q ya había pagado . Me sentí estafado tanto así q tuve q buscar otro hotel con mi familia al llegar d emergencia..
- Melanie (8/5): Perfekt um nach einer langen Anreise in Nähe der Fähre zu übernachten. - Es war sehr verlassen. Wir waren die einzigen Gäste. Die Unterkunft ist außergewöhnlich. Wir nutzten sie nach einer langen Anreise für eine Nacht als Zwischenstopp.
- Martinez (10/5): EXCEPTIONNEL - Vraiment une expérience amusante, dans un site exceptionnel. Les aménagements Pirates des Caraïbes sont magnifiques. Nous sommes sortis en kayak pour voir la bioluminescence, mais ce ne fut pas une réussite, pas assez de vagues mais cela reste une très belle expérience. Merci au Monsieur qui nous a emmené. Le dîner et le petit déjeuner étaient excellents. Allez y passer une nuit. L embarcadère pour Puntarenas est à 5mn. Génial. Rien . Le séjour a été très agréable et les lits étaient confortables
- Sofía (8/5): - Es un lugar muy tranquilo, la playa está enfrente por lo que llegar es muy fácil y es muy linda y limpia.
La habitación excelente, el desayuno muy bueno, el precio muy bueno. Queda muy cerca del Ferri Naranjo y a menos de 300 metros de un súper en la bomba.
- Rocio (7/5): La estancia estuvo bien tranquila y relajante tal - La cercanía con el Ferry es muy buena, la comida estaba bien La piscina es un poco pequeña y el acceso a la playa es un poco complicado
- Nancy (10/5): A wonderland pirates inn - This place exceeded expectations and was magical. Nothing
- pierre (7/5): - Le decor Manque de lumière et de lampe de chevet
- Tatiana (9/5): Un paradis pour les enfants! - Pour les enfants c’est vraiment une perle. Très bon mobilier! La chambre est immense! La cuisine est bien équipée: frigo, casserole, poêle, verres…tout marche très bien! Il y a même la micro-ondes. Très bon billliard et le lego pour les enfant. Le paradis! Le petit déjeuner est aussi très bon. La piscine est assez petite mais très bien pour une famille
- Erik (7/5): -
- Ramona (8/5): - Das Hotel ist ein absolutes Unikat. Der Besitzer hat es mit viel Liebe zum Detail gebaut. Das Essen war lecker und das Frühstück ausreichend. Für unsere Kinder war der Pool Klasse, er wurde noch ordentlich in Beschlag genommen, bevor wir weiter gereist sind.
Die Zimmer waren von der Größe her für uns als vierköpfige Familie sehr gut. Nachts hat hinter der Wand an der Außenseite die Klimaanlage so dermaßen gebrummt, dass an Schlaf für uns Erwachsene kaum zu denken war. Wir hatten die Klimaanlage in unserem Zimmer extra ausgestellt, jedoch lief die Hauptklimaanlage für das Gebäude? weiter. Man hat die Vibration im Bett gespürt.
Das Hotel an und für sich könnte wieder eine kleine Aufhübschung gebrauchen. Die Kinder fanden es Klasse und das
- Marta (10/5): Hermosa estadía Hermosa vista desde el hotel al mar. Un lugar paradisiaco. Que quiero volver ya - Las instalaciones muy bonitas y las decoraciones de pirata fantásticas. Muy cerca de playa hermosa y en quietud Muy bien recibidos y atendidos
- Séverine (9/5): Idéal pour les familles, nous vous le recommandons ! - Très sympas pour les familles, très propre, et personnel très attentif !
L'accès direct à la mer et à la baie de Puntarenas est une merveille au sunset !
Les enfants ont adoré les pirateries, piscine et pêcher depuis le ponton. L'hôtel est vieillissant et manque un peu d'amour... mais l'esprit chaleureux du personnel vous le fait oublier !
- Nancy (10/5): I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a unique and fun place to stay - Very helpful staff and fantastic ambience Nothing
- Molly (10/5): -
- Vargas (7/5): -
- Ivonne Alejandra Cortes Bolaños (10/5): - Excelente habitación! La gente muy calida.
En la noche hubo música en vivo.
- Patricia (6/5): -
- Tavo (8/5): - La habitación con acceso al área privada Algunos lugares estaban un poco sucios, en las fotos sale una olla arrocera y no había.
- Andrw (10/5): - La temática y la decoración La piscina un poco pequeña pero bastante aceptable
- Juan Carlos (10/5): -
- Juan Carlos (8/5): Bien - Tiene un ambiente familiar y había pocos huéspedes, bien para los huéspedes, mal para el negocio. La ubicación está bien dado que tiene una playa casi privada de forma cecana. No hay Wifi, no hay televisión en las habitaciones, las habitaciones están descuidadas y no hay actividades adicionales en el lugar, música en vivo, actividades para niños, entre otros, de esta forma podrían existir más clientes en el lugar.
Además, no hay un buen control de las reservas, cuando llegué no se sabía como estaba el tema con mi reserva.
- Jenny (8/5): - Kul, annorlunda ställe precis vid havet. God mat och hjälpsam personal. Roliga inslag bl.a med en pratande papegoja. Man kan boka båtturer ut till öppet hav och se delfiner eller till flodområdet och se krokodiler eller ut till öarna fulla av spider monkeys. Ett väldigt uppskattat inslag på vår resa.
- Andrés (10/5): Excelente lugar y comida rica - El lugar muy tranquilo, cómodo y seguro
Frente a playa y comida muy rica
- Chantal (10/5): -
- Borbon (10/5): Calidad - El personal y el lugar y que está cerca de la playa Todo me gusto
- fabian (10/5): -
- SallyAD (10/5): - The resort was created by the owner travis.it is located 100m from the ferry
The whole place is unique..themed as cross between a pirate lair and the flintstones He also took us our on an amazing boat trip Quite isolated. You really need a car..no uber service
- Miller G (1/5): FALTA DE SERIEDAD Y COMPROMISO - El servicio fue irresponsable Falta de seriedad, hice la reserva con bastante antelación y me enviaron un correo de confirmación de reserva, luego faltando un par de días para llegar me indicaron que por error no me podían recibir ya que no tenían espacio y que tenía que cancelarla, lo que me puso en aprietos para lograr una estadía con mi familia en otro hotel a un sobreprecio por la temporada, sinceramente me deja muy decepcionado este tipo de actitudes
- Gutierrez (10/5): - La privacidad, respeto y el menaje
- Dominic (10/5): Brilliant stay - We loved everything about this stay, the location is exquisite, the arty decoration it quirky and fun, the pool, the food.. honestly all 10 out of 10. The pirate theme is fun. We all wished we'd stayed longer. The photos on booking don't do this place justice. I wasn't expecting it to be the good
- Yorleny RL (8/5): Pintoresco, alegre. - La decoración, el karaoke y la música. Se dio un problema con la reserva, no se si con booking o con el hotel, pero tuve que cambiar de habitación porque a la fecha de la reserva ya no había cupo, pero en booking la reserva si se hizo, hablé directamente al hotel y pude reservar una habitación que no me gustaba tanto, pero es lo que había. una semana antes de la fecha de la reserva me llamaron para decirme que no había campo con booking y yo les recordé que llamé directamente al hotel para reservar la habitación que quedaba, Entonces ya no me siento tan segura de usar la aplicación, me parece que no están debidamente comunicados con el hotel.
- Rusell (9/5): -
- Cayan (3/5): Totaler Reinfall - - Gefallen hat uns wirklich nichts. Aufgrund des Piraten Themas sind wir hin. Die Bewertungen können nicht echt sein. Lautes Motorengeräusch die ganze Nacht, duschen nur mit kaltem Wasser, der Pool eine kleine Fütze, selbst die Kinder wollten da nicht rein. Es ist eher eine Bar als Restaurant. Die Zimmer sind stark veraltet und für diesen Preis gibt es deutlich bessere, ruhigere Unterkünfte in direkter Nähe. Wir haben 2 Nächte gebucht und sind nach der ersten Nacht abgereist. Ihr wurdet gewarnt.
- Joseling Vanesa (10/5): -
- Adri (10/5): Muy acogedor!! - Muy acogedor, tienen parqueo privado, piscina.
La habitación es muy amplia con refri y utensilios para cocinarte. La piscina es un poco estrecha, pero el mar es muy cerca.
- Alfredo (9/5): - Pivarate theme and great staff Pool
- Katherine (10/5): Weird and wonderful with lots of wildlife - We booked this last minuteto break up a long drive and we knew it would be our favorite place the moment we saw it. The staff is friendly and the food is good, the property itself is AMAZING. The rooms are huge and comfortable and there are surprises around every corner. So many beautiful murals and sculptures, so much creativity and thought went into it! My nine-year-old had a blast in the pool. And the area itself is beautiful with tons of wildlife. There are iguanas, parrots, and a very active butterfly garden in the yard and we could hear howler monkeys not far away. I really wish we had longer. If we come to CR again this will be the first place we book! Everything was perfect
- Richard (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gloria (9/5): Superb -
- Carmon (8/5): Very good -
- Lorne (10/5): Very interesting and enjoyable stay. - Breakfast was very good. Easy location to get to. Hotel was very interesting with the pirate theme. Room was very private with a nice view of the water through some trees. Beach wasn't great.
- Cyndithia (10/5): Very fun place to stay! - The decor, friendliness of staff and cleanliness
- Cindy (9/5): Like you step into a lovely pirate movie! - You get really into the pirate vibe in this amazing place. It’s a work of art! You can’t stop looking around to spot nice decorations. The food was fresh and delicious and full of taste!
- Heidi (10/5): Unique pirate theme! large clean comfy room ! - Liked the unique pirate theme . Quiet and clean . Breakfast included.we enjoyed it for our one night stay . Large room and large balcony with view and seating . Close to ferry ⛴️
- Marty (7/5): Good - Hard to find missed it several times and was brought in on a very bad pitted road
- Sriskantharajah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Volk (6/5): Cute spot with pirate theming for our boys, friendly staff but needs some updating. - Very convenient tp the ferry. The mattress was old and I could feel its springs or inside parts and there wasn’t even a mattress pad between the mattress and sheets. The pillows were also in poor condition.
- Susan (8/5): I enjoyed myself here, but there is no beach and there are no kayaks available tours available, etc. - The food was very good. The facilities are clean. Not the best location
- Andrey (10/5): Exceptional - Everything Price
- Adelfye (10/5): Perfect family fun. - Captain Travis was an incredible host. Facilities were unique and perfect for the family. A must do is his all day tour. It was by far, the highlight of our trip. The Family fed monkeys, caught fish, toured isla San Lucas and ended the day with a perfect lobster roll off the beach.
- Marzena (5/5): Passable - Overall very unique decorated hotel with an amazing restaurant The room was not as clean, the sheets did not look clean on the extra small bed, it had stains and smelled. The pillows on all beds looked very questionable. We used our own towels to sleep on. The bedroom did not have AC it was extremely hot to sleep
- Fiorella (8/5): Very good -
- Fiona (10/5): Exceptional -
- Greg (10/5): Exceptional - Free breakfast was good, big room and bed with great view. Owner let us use sit on kayaks. Also ever helpful for information for bus and ferry.
- Søren (10/5): This place must be visited! Beautiful surroundings and lots of activities. - YES, you must go there. Great place with lots of activities. Travis took us out in the nice old life boat 'Nicoya Queen'. Went to the prisoner island and Travis made the best lobster we've ever had. Thanks :)
The breakfast is excellent. Nice traditional Tico breakfast or best: Travis' special egg benedict!
Not to forget: You can also borrow canoes and go on a trip yourself.
Thanks to Travis and his staff at La Perla Nigro :)
Annett & Søren, Denmark
- Angie (7/5): Great service and a nice place to stay - Excellent service and delicious breakfast. The room was very big with a small fridge and coffee maker. The pool is very small and the wifi didn't work.
- Klams (9/5): Would recommend! Travis is simply the best host! - Travis is amazing! What an outstanding host!
We spent the day on the boat with him - visited the prison and ate at a floating restaurant! Unbelievable experience!
Very nice set up - pirates it is!
Spacious room
Right next to the ferry
- Hernán (10/5): Just amazing trip, I’m so grateful for the hospitality my family received and for the amazing food, - The food and access to beach, but above all he boat tours offered to the floating restaurant. Such amazing food. Everything was perfect and even live music. I cannot wait to go back.
- Roberta (9/5): very nice place - very nice location and property
Travis and the staff were super nice and Travis offered that we could use the SUPs, kayaks and dropped us off at the ferry when we left
when we asked they gave us extra cooking utensils breakfast was not the best and could be more
there was no Wi-Fi at the room and also not very good mobile service
- Irene (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jennifer (8/5): Very good -
- Tera (10/5): Exceptional - This place is amazing every detail is decorated with creativity. Private pools are awesome, food is exquisite and so much to do around the property incl. Island cruise with Travis, and bioluminate at night, right besise ferry easy to find and close to ammenities..
5 star private beds and pillows super comfortable and clean. Food is great at restruaunt and kitchen in rooms are super convienant.
- David (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic vibe! Huge open sided bar/restaurant area. The rooms are pirate themed! Travis was so helpful. We went on a night kayaking tour, saw loads of wildlife including some small crocs! You can also tour the islands with Travis on his boat. Great welcome and great value. A hidden gem.
- Terra (10/5): Exceptional - What a great surprise. This place was so fun. The owners were so gracious and lovely. 5 of us gals shared a cute room and had plenty of space. Great little pool on our deck. I think this is the only room with a pool. The location is perfect. We were comingfrom Manual Antonio to Nosara. La Perla Negra was nestle right in the middle of the long drive. I truly hope I can make it back and see all the projects Travis is working on. 10+ for everything. Food, atmosphere, location, comfort, price....you name it.
