Hotel Se Ua Manzanillo (Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Costa Rica)

About Se Ua Manzanillo

Se Ua (“our home” in indigenous language) is a rustic, thatched-roof style Bed & Breakfast located in the jungle, just 500 meters from Playa Grande, Manzanillo. Here is the perfect place for nature lovers who wish to relax or to discover the area through visits and activities guided the 2 enthusiastic owners. More than a hotel, Se Ua is a magical place with a special energy, born from their desire to live in harmony with nature and to provide an unforgettable experience to people from all around the world. Made of wooden décor and tropical-style furnishings, the rooms are simple but spacious and cozy, with free Wi-FI, comfortable beds, a private bathroom (hot water in 2015) and a terrace. Or you can choose one of the apartments to have your own equipped kitchen. Another wooden building features a bar and lobby where you can have breakfast, have a drink or just relax and share good vibes! All these authentic installations are located in a tropical garden, which itself is surrounded by the rain forest. You will have a chance to see various species of birds, monkeys, sloths, iguanas, butterflies and many others... Sé Ua is also the “House of Adventure” and can arrange all outdoors activities (snorkeling, surfing, kayaking, horseback riding, hiking, canopy tours…) and any visits around (Gandoca Wildlife Refuge, indigenous reserve, waterfalls, lagoons, tree house observatory…). The packaged tours are quite unique since you will drive to each place in buggy for more fun! Manzanillo Town Centre (with its restaurants, bars and shops) is a 2-minute drive by car, or a 5-minute ride on bicycle (for rent). Puerto Viejo (with less beaches and less jungle but with more tourists and party places) is a 15-minute drive by car or bus. Limon Airport can be reached in a 1-hour drive, and San José in 4h30 with comfortable buses. Transfers can be arranged from all these places (with extra cost).
