Accommodation

Lanna Ban Hotel offers nine spacious bungalows, including six single bungalows with ocean views and three double bungalows with partial ocean views. Each bungalow covers 50 square meters and is designed with Thai architectural styles, incorporating high ceilings for optimal airflow. Bathrooms are finished in fine imported marble, enhancing the overall experience.

Location

Situated in Cocles, the hotel is just 2 kilometers from Puerto Viejo, allowing guests to enjoy both serene surroundings and cultural experiences. The nearby beach features crystalline blue waters and is surrounded by native vegetation, making it a picturesque setting. Unique local culture, including the Bribrí tribe's language, enriches the visitor experience.

Gardens

The hotel's gardens present a diverse array of Costa Rican and Thai plants, notably a variety of aquatic Lotus blooming in the front garden's fishpond. This blend reflects the hotel's commitment to bringing a piece of Thailand to its lush surroundings. The immaculate landscaping contributes to a tranquil and serene setting.

Activities

Lanna Ban Hotel coordinates access to a range of activities, including visits to the Jaguar Rescue Center and horseback riding tours through the local landscape. For nature lovers, the nearby Cahuita and Gandoca Manzanillo National Parks offer snorkeling, hiking, and wildlife observation opportunities. Guests can also engage in local cultural experiences, such as the Chocolate Tour in Hone Creek.

Climate Control

The bungalows are elevated approximately two meters above ground, allowing for effective sea breeze circulation. High ceilings and ceiling fans help maintain a comfortable temperature, often around 10 degrees Celsius cooler than the outside. This design minimizes the presence of insects, enhancing the overall comfort for guests.

Highlights

“The Thai-inspired architecture stands out near Cocles Beach; its bungalows offer cooler retreats, ideal after exploring the nearby Jaguar Rescue Center. Breakfast in the gardens brings you face-to-face with local wildlife, from toucans to agoutis, before you even leave the property. It's a well-located and friendly place for a relaxed stay.”
