The Caribbean province of Limón is experiencing a wave of transformation. Large-scale projects such as a cruise terminal, a world-class marina, and the potential for an international airport are reshaping the northern coastline around Puerto Limón and Moín—positioning the region for increased global attention.

Yet, in the southern part of the province, Puerto Viejo remains true to its roots: a vibrant, culturally rich town where nature thrives and authenticity endures.

Nestled in the heart of Playa Cocles, Le Cameleon Boutique Hotel offers a peaceful retreat where contemporary design blends effortlessly with the lush beauty of Costa Rica’s Caribbean coast. We are proud to offer a travel experience that is both stylish and sustainable.

In a world where mass tourism often dilutes cultural identity, Puerto Viejo stands out. Visitors here can immerse themselves in Afro-Caribbean culture, explore nearby national parks like Cahuita, and enjoy uncrowded beaches that feel like hidden treasures.

At Le Cameleon, we believe in responsible tourism. We collaborate closely with our local community and support initiatives that promote conservation and sustainable development. Every stay is designed to be enriching for our guests and impactful for the destination we call home.
