Hone Creek is the community between Cahuita and Puerto Viejo that tends to have some services and larger stores not available in the more tourist-orientated Puerto Viejo or Cahuita. But there are also a number of hotels in the area and it is not far from the beaches. Occasionally it is useful to come to Hone Creek to catch a bus as there are more frequent buses since not all buses enter Puerto Viejo.
Most travelers will pass through Hone Creek on the way into Puerto Viejo as this is where they leave the main highway 36 which goes from Limon to the border with Panama at Sixaola. The only gas station in the area is located here. There is also the public and best equipped medical clinic as well as several larger supermarkets and hardware stores. Many local residents who work in the hotels and restaurants in Puerto Viejo live in Hone Creek. There are also several places to stay in Hone Creek which tend to be either good value or feature larger properties where you can get away from it all.
