Our take
Villas Diwo is three air-conditioned villas on Route 256 in Hone Creek, each with a full kitchen (full-size fridge and freezer, stovetop, microwave), around a shared pool, a garden and barbecue grills. Cahuita National Park is about five minutes away by car and Playa Negra about eight, so the beach is a drive, not a walk. I would book it for families or friends who want to cook, stock up at the Hone Creek supermarkets and split their days between Cahuita and Puerto Viejo; skip it if you want a restaurant, hotel services or the sea at the door. Guests rate it 8.8, but from only 21 reviews.
- ✓Shop for the week in Hone Creek itself: the village has larger supermarkets than tourist-oriented Puerto Viejo or Cahuita, which suits villas with full kitchens.
- ✓Fill up at Servicentro Hone Creek, the only full gas station for miles on this coast, before day trips south.
- ✓Keep in mind that the Hone Creek Clinic is the nearest public clinic to Puerto Viejo, a few minutes from the villas.
- ✓Use the barbecue grills after a day in Cahuita National Park, about five minutes away by car.

Why guests love itVillas Diwo suits families who travel with a routine: a full kitchen with a full-size fridge and freezer, a stovetop and a microwave, air conditioning, a safe, and a pool and garden to fill the afternoons. The Hone Creek supermarkets make shopping easy, and the village has the nearest public clinic to Puerto Viejo, a reassuring detail with small children. Cahuita National Park is about five minutes by car and Playa Negra about eight, so you will drive to the beach each day. With just three units the setting stays quiet, but this is a self-catering place rather than a hotel with services, and the 8.8 score rests on 21 reviews, so I would book it for what it is: a practical base for cooks and drivers.
