The Property — Jordan's Jacuzzi Suites
Jordan’s Jacuzzi Suites is a straightforward 3-star hotel a short walk from Limón’s seafront. The lobby is functional rather than flashy, with tiled floors, plastic plants and a reception desk that stocks printed bus timetables. Its main selling point is the room jacuzzis — you’re paying for hot water jets, not design. It suits self-sufficient travellers who want a clean base for a night or two before heading into the Caribbean coast's national parks.
Chronicles of Limon
Limón was founded in the 1870s as a railway and banana port, fuelled by Jamaican and Chinese labourers brought to build the line to San José. The architecture reflects that heritage: pastel-painted wooden houses with verandas and zinc roofs, especially around the central market and Vargas Park. It remains Costa Rica’s main Caribbean port, with a distinct Afro-Caribbean culture expressed in Creole English, reggae music and the annual October Carnaval. The city’s gritty, lively centre contrasts sharply with the quieter tourist beaches to the south.
Best Time to Visit
Full Limon guide →Best months
February to April: driest period with clear skies and lower humidity; crowds are moderate as most tourists head to the Pacific or Arenal.
Peak / festival surge
October: Carnaval de Limón dominates with parades, music and street food; hotel prices can double. Book months ahead.
Budget shoulder season
May to June and November: rain picks up but prices drop; fewer tourists, still enough sun for day trips to Cahuita or Tortuguero.
Weather & packing
Limón gets rain year-round, but July sits in the mid-wet season: expect heavy afternoon showers. Pack a waterproof jacket and fast-dry footwear — flip-flops won't cut it for muddy streets.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Jordan's Jacuzzi Suites, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the second floor at the back of the building, facing away from the main road. This reduces street noise and gives you a quieter stay without sacrificing access via the stairs.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing the street. Limón's main road can be busy with traffic and pedestrian activity, and ground-level rooms pick up more noise and less privacy.
Best views
A rear-facing second-floor room offers a view over the surrounding residential area or tropical greenery, which is more pleasant than the street view.
Quietest floors
Second floor only (the hotel appears to be a two-storey building with no lift). The first floor has less foot traffic above but more street exposure.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from Limón's main artery, especially during early mornings and late afternoons. The lack of a lift means guests on the upper floor may hear stairway footfall, though this is minimal if the building is concrete.
Insider tips
1. Since there is no lift, request a second-floor room if you're okay with stairs—it's quieter and they often have better airflow. 2. Check in early in the day to negotiate a room at the back; the front desk may have more flexibility during quieter hours.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
