Search Playa Chiquita hotels

The best area to stay in Playa Chiquita is right along the main coastal road, which offers direct access to the beach and local amenities.


This stretch of road is the heart of Playa Chiquita, where most of the guesthouses, small shops, and eateries are located. It's a relaxed, linear settlement, allowing for easy walks between different points of interest along the coastline. You'll find yourself close to the various small coves and sandy patches that characterise the area.


Couples looking for a tranquil escape will find this area particularly appealing. The guesthouses here often offer direct beach access or lovely views of the Caribbean Sea, great for romantic strolls or simply unwinding by the water. You're also well-placed to enjoy local seafood restaurants and the natural beauty of the surrounding rainforest.


For those seeking a more secluded experience, there are also well-appointed villas located slightly off the main road, often higher up on the hillsides.

The best time to go to Playa Chiquita is during the dry season, which runs from December to April.


During these months, you'll experience consistently sunny weather and calmer seas, making it ideal for enjoying the beach and water activities. This period is superb for travellers looking for a relaxing beach holiday where they can swim, sunbathe, and partake in boat trips without the interruption of heavy rain.


The shoulder months of late November and early May can also be a good option. While there might be a few more showers, the weather is generally pleasant, and you'll find fewer visitors.
