South Pacific Coast

Travel Guide

El Remanso Lodge is location in a pristine forest just outside Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica. This room is La Vainilla, and it was beautiful. All open air, it overlooked both the forest and Pacific Ocean. Animals and birds galore. Two queen size beds and two twin beds, two stories and a beautiful balcony. Highly recommended!

If you're close to Uvita, check the tide schedule and get down to the beach! Humpback whales raise their young in Marino Bellena as the waters are shallow and warm and they feel safe. Coincidentally, at low tide, the beach forms a "whale's tail" shape, and it's stunning to see. 

There is a National Park entrance fee, that I believe was in the $3-6 range for the day.

Luxury in the heart of nature. Botanika is a beautiful Hilton Curio property located opposite the airport (not a problem) on the edge of a lovely piece of jungle property on the edge of the bay.
