Casitas Joanna is located in Playa Negra, a short distance from the coastal town of Puerto Viejo on Costa Rica´s Caribbean side. Upon exiting our property, you will find Playa Negra (Black Beach) less than 80 meters at your disposal.

On the beach you will encounter miles of deserted shoreline that highlight Costa Rica's diverse biosphere. From calm waters best for snorkeling to world-class surf waves, Puerto Viejo offers an array of both outdoor and indoor activities for any type of traveler or group.

Less than a twenty-minute walk away (or a five minute taxi ride), guests of Casitas Joanna can experience Pura Vida in Puerto Viejo and throughout the South Caribbean region.

Enjoy great restaurants, shop for locally-made souvenirs and crafts, zipline through the rainforest, take a guided, electric bike tour to the waterfall, visit the local Bri Bri Indigeneous Reservation, and/or dance the night away in one of the town´s lively nightclubs.
