When is the best time to go to Puerto Viejo?

The best time to go to Puerto Viejo for pleasant weather and outdoor activities is generally during the dry season, which runs from February to April and again from September to October. During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and plenty of sunshine, making it ideal for enjoying the beaches and exploring the surrounding rainforests. The sea is typically calmer during these periods, which is great for swimming, snorkelling, and diving. For those who enjoy surfing, the waves tend to be at their best from December to March, particularly for more experienced surfers. Even during the "wet" season, from May to August and November to January, rain often comes in short, heavy bursts, leaving plenty of sunshine for other activities. However, the humidity is higher during these times.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our ‘Fully refundable property’ filter during your search to find the right Puerto Viejo hotel for you.

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely amazing stay for our family of four! Nadine and team were extremely responsive the entire time, including helping us through medical issues. :) I have never felt so personally taken care of by a team of people at a VRBO. They were extremely invested in us having a great time. It was our kids favorite place we stayed on our vacation and was extremely kid friendly. Clean, accessible and everything was so well organized. We would come back here in a heartbeat!"

Tambor Tropical - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful rooms and area. Lovely and quiet. One note to mention, the beach across the road is not the crystal blue waters as the sand is dark. It’s also a busy area for fishing so we didn’t swim. There’s some nice restaurants within walking distance and a great grocery store. "
