Physis Caribbean Bed & Breakfast

Built among the gardens of Puerto Viejo's Miss Winny Town district, Physis Caribbean Bed & Breakfast is an adults-only five-star retreat on Costa Rica's southern Caribbean coast — close to the reef breaks of Salsa Brava and within reach of Cahuita National Park, suited to couples and active travellers seeking quiet between water activities.

Rooms sit on the ground floor with private entrances, tile floors, and garden-view terraces. Each has air conditioning, a coffee machine, refrigerator, and private bathroom with shower. Breakfast-to-go containers cater to early departures before snorkelling or diving excursions.

The tour desk arranges canoeing, horseback riding, fishing, and cycling. Bicycle rental, airport shuttle, and parking are all on site — useful given Puerto Viejo's limited public transport links.
