We booked our last minute stay on a busy Costa Rican holiday weekend - holiday weekends in in Costa Rica drive huge populations from the city to the beach, filling hotels to capacity. Eric (proprietor) was gracious and understanding of our last-minute need to get out of the city and decompress, if even for a short stay. Upon arrival after being immediately greeted, upon stepping out of our car, by a rather large troupe of Capuchin Monkeys (many of which were mothers with child), Erica was friendly and welcoming, and got us settled into wonderful, spacious, and beautifully crafted rooms. Only 100 steps from the entrance Parque Nacional Cahuita, we were off communing with nature within 15 minutes of our arrival. Driving to dinner in Manzanillo was a bit of a hassle due to holiday revelers, so we diverted back to Puerto Viejo for fantastic and authentic Caribbean home cooking at Lilly's (highly recommend it). After a short, 15 minute drive, we were back at Kelly Creek. Next morning, after being the first to enter Parque Nacional Cahuita for a two hour hike, I returned to the hotel where the rest of my party were just sitting down to a hearty continental breakfast and some intriguing conversation with Eric. Having travelled Costa Rica for more than 25 years, and lived in Country 5 years, I've experienced the best and worst that more that 60 Costa Rica hotels have to offer. Erica and Kelly Creek Hotel easily ranks among the best of my experiences.
