Southern Costa Rica & Península de Osa
This 4.5-hectare farm is full of wildlife and fruit trees, with a lookout at the top of a hill. A sweet duplex with comfortable tiled cabins has a terrace in front, while the ‘Jungle Deluxe’ is a beautiful, open-air lodging with a huge balcony, kitchen and elegant cathedral ceiling. A walking trail leads down to the Río Claro swimming hole.
Turn off the Río Claro road, just before the bridge.
