Jardín de los Monos offers accommodation in Matapalo just a 1 minute walk from the beach. A swimming pool, free WiFi is featured and free private parking is available on site.

Every room has a private bathroom and a private patio where you can relax and spot jungle wildlife, including monkeys and sloths. A seating area, air conditioning, ceiling fans, mini fridge and bed linen are also included.

Everything was perfect! The room, pool area, garden, breakfasts, and all the amazing animals we saw including tons of capuchin monkeys, several sloths, a kinkajou, and a migration of land crabs just blew us away! Lettika has put so many special touches to the entire property and we loved everything so much. The property is so close to a beautiful and not busy beach which was so special. Sunsets were incredible. Jardin de los Monos was the most relaxing part of our two week trip to Costa Rica.

    I really liked that the room was made with a touch of love. It was cute and thought through what traveller needs - enough places to hang your clothes, comfortable bed and pillows with natural bed linen, bedside table with bedside lamp, a table and chair. Sounds like basics but very hard to find normally in the rooms for a lower budget. And I loved a hammock! So great to listen to the sound of waves and relax. The beach is just 100m away. And Vanessa was offering even pancakes! Perfect Sunday morning 🥰

    Great uncrowded beach location, I don’t understand people saying it was far from the beach - it’s a 3 min walk. Nice big room with good cooking facilities. Amazingly helpful lady helped us with everything, even my washing. They really wanted to please. Lovely quiet time in the pool, bird, Iguana and frog watching, when other guests weren’t around. Amazing value.

    Owners were great, very approachable gave advice on things to do and where to go and also a location to see sloths. Room is big and very clean, with comfortable bed and nice hot shower. Owner makes great breakfast especially nice big waffles, so bring a big jar of Nutella. There is a small outside seating area for each room where you can eat or sit and chill. Very close to a great restaurant and to a nice beach.

Definitely recommend it!!!

    We felt very welcome at COCO beach Village. The owners are so kind and helpful! The room was big and very clean. AND THE LOCATION IS A HIDDEN GEM. Its perfect with the most beautiful sunsets! The area is nice, calm, safe and it’s a short walk to the amazing beach. When we’ll go to Costa Rica again we definitely will come back to this place!

    The location was ideal, close to the beach, and with a good sized pool. Good cooking facilities, and very comfortable bed. Carlos was extremely helpful and always on hand. Very relaxed atmosphere. The beach at Matapalo is beautiful and mostly deserted, with a couple of good restaurants nearby and a supermarket within 10min walk.
