Congo Bongo Eco Lodge is such a gem!! I'm so glad we found it. We loved everything about Congo Bongo - the location in the jungle is priceless, the service and the friendliness of the staff, and especially Marisol was great! The Long Dream House is larger than it looks on the pictures, and absolutely cozy! You can hear the sounds of the jungle all around, howler monkeys, sloths and tucans in the trees above the bungalow, and all kinds of exotic species of flora and fauna. There is a great beach, which feels deserted and all to yourself just five minutes away via a short walk in the jungle. The proximity to Cahuita NP, and Gandoca-Manzanillo preserve makes this a great location to explore the Caribbean side of Costa Rica. We were there in mid June which is the beginning of the rainy season, and the weather was unpredictable - rainy one hour, sunny the next, but that's part of the magic! It did not stop us from doing all sorts of activities, and simply lie in the hammocks and enjoy the rain when we were homebound. I highly recommend Congo Bongo. Thank you to the owners and staff for making our stay unforgettable!
