Casa Mariposa - Jungle Oasis, Close to the Beach!

Casa Mariposa is charming rustic Caribbean style houses surrounded by lush vegetation & abundant wildlife, yet only 200 yards from beautiful Cocles Beach. It is the best of both worlds, in the heart of the jungle & so close to the sea. Your very own tropical paradise at an affordable price!

Casa Colibri and Casa Mariposa are in the tiny village of Cocles on the Southern Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica. The nearest town that you will find in most guidebooks is Puerto Viejo de Talamanca which is about 2 miles north.

Within 10 miles of the houses there are more than 6 incredible beaches (the closest, Playa Cocles, a lazy 4 minute walk from the houses), two national parks with hiking trails, world class surfing, snorkeling along a very active coral reef about 25 feet from the water line on Punta Uva beach and in Manzanillo. Guests are invited to spend the day at the Noa Beach Club, enjoy lunch and beverage service on the beach. Sign up for zipline canopy tours, indigenous reserve walks, visit botanical and butterfly gardens, tour the jaguar reserve and sloth rescue center, take yoga classes and go kayaking - most of which you can do on your own or with a guide or group. Or, just swing in a hammock on the terrace, where you’ll spot toucans, sloths, butterflies, howler monkeys, aguati & hummingbirds!

The region offers really fantastic food. A few of our local favorites are El Refugio Grill, GypSea, Cafe Rico, Tiare, Stasha con Fusion, Chili Rojo, Bread & Chocolate Cafe & Bamboocha. Some of the finest dining in the area can be found in Cocles, a short 5 minute walk from Casa Colibri and Casa Mariposa at La Pecora Nera. Also highly recommended for cocktails is Le Cameleon. There are a few well stocked grocery stores nearby and several wonderful cafes & don't miss the farmers' market in Puerto Viejo on Saturday.

Can be rented with our other cottage, Casa Colibri to sleep a total of 7 guests!
