Highlight of our trip!
We were so incredibly impressed by Hotel Pumilio! Our room was very spacious and clean. The staff were also so friendly. The property was stunning with lots of outdoor seating space including two pools and a dining area. Despite being in a pretty secluded and safe area, we really appreciated the gated entrance for an extra sense of security. Also very convenient to nearby towns and beaches, no more than a 10 minute drive. Our room had a private jacuzzi which was definitely worth the upgrade! Highly recommend Hotel Pumilio in every regard!!

Pumilio is a beautiful private place, perfect for families or couples. You are surrounded by nature and lots of cool wildlife right outside your room! Monkeys, iguanas, geckos, toucans, and many other bird species were seen daily during our stay. The pool is refreshing and clean...we so enjoyed it to cool off after being out in the heat. The breakfast is delicious, with many choices. The staff is helpful and friendly, and were very easy to find or reach if we needed anything. It was so comforting to return to our clean quiet room everyday. We slept so well at Pumilio and were sad to leave!

Loved that it was up and away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Jaco. Breakfast was plentiful and fresh, the pool was clean, cool and refreshing! Especially loved taking a dip in the evening to cool down with the moon and stars above. Also, we were there over my daughters birthday, they suggested a great beach restaurant and made reservations for us at sunset and while we were at dinner, they put balloons in our room and got her a cake!
