Tiny House Atlas

Tiny houses & cabins in Puerto Viejo & Cahuita (Caribbean coast)

The southern Caribbean coast is Costa Rica’s other country: reggae and Afro-Caribbean cooking in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, the sloths and coral of Cahuita National Park, and the empty beaches of Punta Uva and Manzanillo down to the Panama border. Casitas, jungle cabins and treehouses hide in the strip of rainforest between the road and the sand.

How we choose what counts as a tiny house

Booking sites don’t have a “tiny house” category — they file these stays under the generic “Accommodation” label. So we check every place by name and type and list only genuine free-standing small homes: tiny houses (on wheels or fixed), cabins, glamping pods, shepherd huts, yurts, domes and tree houses. No hotel rooms, no ordinary apartments.

The atlas currently lists 5517 hand-checked small stays across 485 destinations in 79 countries — 3731 of them additionally verified through independent research with a documented source.

Prices and availability come from our booking partners and can change at any time. Booking links are affiliate links — booking through them supports this site at no extra cost to you. Property type is checked from the listing name and category; if you spot a mistake, let us know.
