Who Bohemia is for
Bohemia suits travelers who want an intimate hillside base: couples and honeymoons, wellness guests who like daily yoga without a rigid retreat schedule, surfers who prefer rest over a party hostel, small groups looking for a quiet venue, and remote workers who need calm more than nightlife. Maximum capacity is about sixteen guests across six units — three ocean-view bungalows (Luna, Maya, Bahia) and three jungle suites.
Bohemia is a weaker fit if you need beachfront walk-out access, flat urban roads without a steep final approach, a large resort program, or a party atmosphere on property. The beach is roughly a ten-minute walk downhill; a 4×4 is strongly recommended for the hillside access road.
Romantic couples and honeymoons
Couples usually care about density and calm: fewer rooms, sunset views, and evenings that stay quiet. Start with the honeymoon guide, then look at ocean-view bungalows Luna, Maya, and Bahia.
Boutique and intimate lodging
If you are comparing resorts to six-room lodges, this guide explains the tradeoffs. Bohemia is intentionally small and independent — not a chain and not a beachfront resort strip property.
Quiet yoga and wellness
Yoga is part of Bohemia’s property identity: on-site classes, often around 7 a.m. in an outdoor shala. Schedule can vary; participation is optional. Some packages include yoga. For services listed on the main site, use the Yoga and Wellness & Therapies menu items on bohemiacr.com.
Small retreat venues
Bohemia hosts small groups up to about sixteen guests. Facilitators should inquire via retreats for dates, buyouts, and room mix. It is not a conference campus.
Itineraries and Nicoya calm
Quiet surf lodging (not a party hostel)
Bohemia is not a surf school or party hostel. It works for surf travelers who want a quiet hillside base and connections to trusted local instructors. See also the main site Surf information.
Digital nomads and longer stays
Wi‑Fi is available property-wide; occasional storm outages are possible. Speeds are not published here — test on arrival for your call needs.
