A lovely stay. Clean, spacious waterfront suite with a fabulous water view where you can relax on the porch protected from the sun and rain and enjoy your breakfast.
Excellent service, effective A/C. Pretty quiet overall. Nice pool.
We would happily stay here again.

I stayed just one night at Cabinas upon arriving to the Osa peninsula and it was the perfect landing place to being my trip! The staff was so kind and helpful and it was great to be able to get out on the water and Kayak. The location is walking distance to town for cafes, grocery and restaurants. The price is affordable and the room was very clean and cosy! I would definitely stay again if I travel there!

Cabins close to the waterfront. Friendly staff shared useful information about the area. Air conditioned room, fridge, warm showers, pool. Plenty of free parking outside. Short walk to the town pier where many tours start.

John and Annie don't have a no for an answer, rooms are small but comfortable, and clean, a little outdated, good wi fi, no tv, ac is a diamond in the area, no restaurant or breakfast but evermore l everything is walkable, ride from San Jose is 6 hours, going towards the Corcovado park or Carate beach can take 2 hours more in an 4x4 car. You can take a plane from San Jose $140 and get there in 25 minutes. There is not Ev charger in the area, somehow John manage to get me electricity to use my own household charger. Very nice value for your money.

Puerto Jiménez stay
Puerto Jiménez is a nice clean little Pueblo. There is a cute cafe called Monka up the street that we would recommend. Several seafood restaurants and we ate at Delfines which was excellent- so fresh!
The hotel is situated in a nice secluded area right on the the waterfront. We saw several kayaks and people swimming in the bay. The ambiance was nice with the boats, the waves, and the sunset & sunrise. The AC in the room was excellent and made the heat tolerable. Be prepared for the heat!
Our feedback has more to do with the pricing. It was a little bit more pricey and the hotel charged a 7% fee for cc use I totally understand the fee however if it was posted in the posting u did not see it. Also, the price for the room was higher than others in the area and while a nicer place, could be lower.

Stay at Cabinas Jimenez
We arrived at Cabinas Jimenez early and our room was not ready. The owner, John, happened to be at the front desk. Instead of making us wait, he upgraded our room, which was clean and ready to go. Gabby, who worked the front desk, was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and personable. Perfect place to de-stress and de-compress.

Our room had a beautiful view of the gulf. It had an outdoor kitchen that we enjoyed immensely. The air-conditioning and hot water worked well. We enjoyed the pool during the hot part of the day. And we took advantage of the free kayaks and bicycles at the hotel. John, the owner is a gracious host and his staff are very friendly and helpful. John took us out on a dolphin watching tour that included snorkelling a coral reef. It was absolutely a perfect day! I would highly recommend the stay at cabanas Jimenez.
