Hotel Banana Azul – Adults Only
Total number of rooms: 26 | Prices start from 179.39 US$
Hotel Banana Azul is tucked away on the edge of Playa Negra’s soft black sands, and it offers something rare: peace with personality. This adults-only boutique hotel in Puerto Viejo is rustic, vibrant, and full of charm. Think wooden carvings, jungle gardens, and hammocks swaying under the trees. It’s not your typical white-linen resort, and that’s exactly why people fall in love with it.
The hotel features a variety of uniquely designed rooms and cabins. Some come with open-air showers, others with ocean views, all with their own touch of character. You’ll find thoughtful details like mosquito nets, fans, and private patios with outdoor seating.
If you’re looking for a photogenic spot, this is it. From the handcrafted wood interiors to the garden walkways and beachside massage hut, Banana Azul is unapologetically Instagrammable. The lighting at night? Magical.
The hotel restaurant serves up fresh local dishes with international touches. You’ll love the breakfasts, strong coffee, tropical fruits, homemade breads. Vegetarian and vegan options are always available. There’s a beach bar, too, where you can sip your favorite drink while watching the Caribbean Sea stretch endlessly in front of you.
There’s a mini-market right across the street for quick snacks or essentials. Small detail, but a huge plus when you’re staying a bit outside town.
