Hotel Pumilio
Review summary
What locals are saying about Hotel Pumilio
Pumilio is a small, lovely hotel, and the service earns almost all the praise: the staff is kind and professional, and guests say they felt at home. One guest gives special thanks to Carla, attentive and always smiling. The rooms are pretty and clean, parking is enough, the place feels private and safe, and the buffet breakfast is among the things people mention most.
Location is a plus: it sits between Jacó and Playa Herradura, close enough to Jacó's dining scene but in a calm setting surrounded by nature; one guest who came for a paddleboard crossing in the Herradura bay chose it for exactly that reason. For another it was not only nice but cheap: they stayed one night with their son and it was the best place they could find. It is in Herradura.
