Beautiful grounds, comfortable room, attentive and friendly hosts. Only 5 minute walk to Playa Negra and 15 to the National Park. It was great to have hot water in the evening to shower.

Keep in mind rooms are not AC'd.

Piscinas Naturales is the most magical place I have stayed. The tide pools and garden are unbelievable. I am grateful to have gotten to know Patty, the owner, over the course of a few stays. She is wonderful to talk to and a fantastic host.

Room does not include air conditioning but we didn't find this a problem as there were two fans in our room.

We couldn't have asked for a better stay! The property is nestled in a corner of paradise where you can sit and enjoy the peaceful surrounding nature and wildlife on the seafront. Jennifer was an amazing host - very friendly, chatty and went above and beyond to help us. Her dog 'Honey' was affectionate and always on hand to point out sloths in the trees on the doorstep of our room. We loved every minute of our stay, thank you!

I was very glad I had an eye mask for sleeping because the lace curtains don’t block the bright security lights outside the rooms.

Excellent location by the beach with a nice communal seating area to sit and watch birds, lizards and sloths at the pools. Lovely garden! Great kitchen area. I enjoyed listening to the waves as I fell asleep at night. Patti the owner was friendly and helpful.

A very relaxed ambience, lovely jungle-like grounds with, of course, the natural inlet pool. An easy wander to nearby bars and local restaurants. Katy is a charming and easy-going host.

We felt fortunate to spend time relaxing at this special property! The beautiful gardens and pathways, listening to the waves, the comfortable seating in the common area looking over the natural pool. We appreciated the interesting details throughout-the use of nature’s treasures, and the time spent creating this wonderful atmosphere. Our room was comfortable. We slept great! It was nice to use the kitchen. A great place with great hosts!

Hotel Piscinas Natural in Cahuita is a peaceful, nature-filled haven where you can truly unwind. Patty, the lovely owner, makes you feel welcome while also fully respecting your privacy. Her adorable dog Honey and cat Kit add to the charm of the place. The rooms are very simple yet have everything you need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is perfectly equipped—clean, efficient, and organized for all your cooking needs. I especially appreciated the well-thought-out recycling system, which shows Patty’s care for the environment. The garden, lovingly tended for decades, is a highlight—lush and full of life. You can also feel a calm presence in the space that reflects the memory of Patty’s partner, Walter. With the cool ocean breeze and natural pools to enjoy, this hotel offers a serene and private escape where you can feel at one with nature. Patty you are truly a one in million! I will definitely be back!

The hotel has very few rooms, so felt very private. The kitchen was clean, contained everything we needed and was more than large enough to cater for us all. The host was lovely, and the coral pools were incredible. We really enjoyed relaxing in the garden, looking at all the animals. There is even a flower shower for after swimming in the sea!

The accommodation right by the sea, with a fantastic view of the waves from a wonderful garden and a small natural swimming pool is a real highlight. Patty and Jennifer are extremely helpful and are available with advice and assistance as well as wonderful explanations. The Piscina Natural is a special place in the noisier surroundings further away from the town.

Like most places no A/C.

Beautiful garden setting and natural sea cove pool. The owners are beautiful warm and very accomodating. Rented bicycles to get around made the stay so much better.

Beautifully maintained garden, natural swimming pool

The staff was absolutely lovely and so helpful. The property is beautiful, the garden is stunning and you can swim without going out of the property. It’s better to have a car for you stay otherwise it will take 25 min to walk to Cahuita.

The most beautiful place I stayed in CR. Read the reviews and saw the pictures before i went, none of which did a justice. I felt the place was special. Being in the natural pool was blessing, a total zen moment. Saw quite a few animals there and just around. The place stole my heart. Only would want to go back soon!

The rooms are small and basic with no air conditioning, but clean and comfortable. The owner, Patty, is helpful and very kind, she has a dog, but he was well behaved and never bothersome. The grounds are like a botanical garden that Patty maintains with great care. In the morning it was raining, but we found a comfortable spot on the open veranda to sip coffee and watch the birds, the sea and the rain. We very much enjoyed our stay.

Nothing, this place was fantastic

The location and the grounds are simply stunning. The whole property is a beautiful tropical oasis garden. The rooms are small but comfortable with simple facilities that are the necessities. Come to this place to enjoy the natural setting in the most relaxing environment, not for a fancy hotel. We loved it here and extended our stay. Patty the owner is incredibly friendly and helpful and makes great coffee in the morning to sip while you enjoy the ocean front views and local wildlife.

That I couldn’t stay longer

The history and beauty of the land is the most peaceful I’ve ever been. Patty and honey has now become an personal friend for life now. Some of the best rest I’ve had in years. I can’t say enough about this place.
