Puerto Viejo - La Ruka Hostel
About the place
HostelLocated just on the edge of the town, La Ruka is a short stroll away onto a beautiful and vibrant jungle side property. It is just far enough way to hear the true sounds of the jungle at night, but close enough for a walk or bike ride to grab a bite to eat and listen to some live music. Walking into the reception you will be welcomed with a warm smile and positive vibes.

If you arrive in the morning the person behind the desk will most likely be one of the owners, Dannie or Dave.
