Bungalow Malú Lodge

We stayed one week in this hotel in March 2023. It's very near to the beach, but carefull, just in front you cannot swim because of the rip tide. When we stayed lots of storm in the night and we had beach walks every morning seeing all the debris on the beach. Beach is very isolate and never gets busy even in the day. The staff of the hotel is very gentle and customer friendly, we rented a bike and they let us park it in front of the reception. The breakfast was good, 2 options:continental or costa rican breakfast. The pool is good and well taken care of. Very nice gardens, you hear the screaming monkeys! The cabana was not big but very cosy feeling to it with airco, it was perfect! Daily houdekeeping

Beautiful hotel in Chuita. Across the street from the beach. Nice rooms with all amenities.
We stayed for 3 nights. Nice, quite hotel. With a beautiful pool area and a nice restaurant. 
Dinner was great, drinks not too expensive. Service is great too. Note: the restaurants closes early.
Our room was clean, spacious and with all amenities you might like. 
Breakfast was also good, basic but well prepared and serviced in the poolside bar. 
It’s a 15 minute walk to the more downtown are (or a 5 minute drive). 
Parking on the premises is fine. 
 

FULLY RECOMMEND!!! Great host, super flexible and an amazing atmosphere. A nice bungalow area across the ocean. Very good breakfast and a nice bar. We were four people in different bungalows and all of them were great. All the best and thanks for this great stay!!! 

Comfortable cabanas set in beautiful gardens opposite beach

This property consists of a number of individual round bungalows plus some other rooms, set in a beautiful garden with birds and Agoutis. 

We stayed four nights in a bungalow. It was nicely designed and appointed and very comfortable...very helpful having a small fridge. Breakfast was standard fare and served in the round restaurant building.Only downside was lack of water pressure in the shower.

The property is right opposite to Playa Negra and it's a couple of kms from the village...although there are a couple of restaurant / bars closer than this. 

Service was friendly and accommodating...and we wish the new owners Yerling (?) and Walter  the best with their new venture

We loved our round bungalow (#1), with view of the beach, ocean and Cahuita National Park in the distance. Paola, who looks after reception, and Alejandra, the owner, were most friendly and low-key. Servers Sandra and Angie presented us with great breakfasts each morning, starting with attractive and generous fruit plates. 

From Bungalow Malu it's an easy walk to the nearest 2 restaurants, and Cahuita town provides lots of choice, a 15-min stroll along the beach or road.

We especially enjoyed a tour of the Tree of Life Sanctuary, ~1 mile up the road away from town. Well worth a visit.

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and made to order. Our room was an efficiency with fridge and stove. We had an ocean view from the picnic table outside the bungalow. Comfortable bed and wonderful shower. Fully screened and AC if desired. The beach is fantastic. Warm water, gentle waves, sloth in the trees:) The location is perfect. You are in a garden across from a sparsely populated beach yet close to the restaurants and bustle of Cahiuta. Don't miss the snorkeling at the National Park! Some renovations going on otherwise 5 stars.

We stayed there 3 nights, the place is basic but calm and just next to a small black beach. 
The staff was really friendly to us, the breakfast was good and complete. 
We enjoyed our time there.
A bit more light in the bungalow might be a plus. 
Don't forget to put anti-mosquito as the bungalows are in the middle of vegetation.

This was our third location in Costa Rica. We liked it very much. The owner, Paola is very kind! She invited us right a way for a barbecue on the 31/12. The bungalow is very cosy, with airco. The breakfast was wonderful! Our tour with Fernando Davis in Cahuita NP. was amazing. First we were a little disappointed because the waves were to high for the snorkeltrip! Instead he invited us in his very beautiful garden, with his knowledge of all the medical plants, he let us taste and smell all the plants and in the evening we could come to see 2 kinds of beautiful frogs. Also we saw a Jesus Christ Basilisk and a snake! And he and his wife make wonderful chocolate! The tour in Cahuita NP was also nice, a bit busy, 1 january on sunday! He discovered 3 snakes for us and a lot more! Take swimming suits with you (we forgot!) We would recommend Fernando Davis and Bungalows Malu to everybody! Thanks a lot for your wonderful hospitality!

Quiet relaxing place to stay,  very friendly and helpful staff, the most delicious breakfast and always plentiful.  Nothing bad here.  The beach is just opposite but black sand and rustic,  a white sand beach can be had in the National Park a twenty min walk away.

Nice small hotel with very nice and confortable bungalows. It is located right in front of the beach. Nice and quiet beach, though. The property has a central bungalow with chairs and tables perfect to seat and relax. It was really nice to take breakfast there with the rain. There is also a small pool. The property is located just a short walk to town on a gravel road bordering the beach where you can also find places to eat. Owners Sandra and Paola were very friendly and attentive. They serve the breakfast every morning
