Hotel Banana Azul Gay friendly in Puerto Viejo Costa Rica

So what's the "snake" situation like in Costa Rica? I'm not a huge fan of snakes. I'm assuming they have some big ones that could slither out of the jungle near the hotel.

@SUCKMEISTER005 About 135 different snakes here, 17 which are venomous. That said, slithering around the hotel, possible but not probable and if they did, you'd have to go out of your way to find them.

@SUCKMEISTER005 I've seen more snakes in my backyard here in California than I've seen in the wild in Costa Rica, 2 here, 1 there. The 1 I saw there was a large Boa in the rafters of a long abandoned house. Nothing to fear unless it dropped on you. I've been hiking in the hills around Cahuita and Puerto Viejo at least a dozen times and have never seen a snake. Anyway, if you are bitten by one, there is a clinic in Puerto Viejo, you will be taken there within 15 minutes and given antidote.
