Nature eco lodge vacation rentals in Costa Rica

Amazing room on a beautiful property

If you’re looking for a version of Costa Rican river living this is it. Affordable with an extremely attentive owner and staff. We especially enjoyed our kayaking and hiking trips. Thank you, Carlos!

We LOVED our stay at Rinconcito Lodge! It was beautiful waking up to the birds every morning and a very short walk to the pool and restaurant on site. We also booked an excursion through the lodge and loved it! We were able to zip line, and ride horseback to a waterfall then a viewpoint over the surrounding area. Just be aware that there is a long gravel road to get to the lodge, at points we were concerned that we weren’t going the right way but it was well worth it! We will definitely be back!

Very cozy place to enjoy Manuel Antonio and surroundings!!! Awakening is unique

We used Vistadrakelodge to stay in Drake Bay on our way to and from an overnight trip to Corcovado Preserve. We stayed a relaxed extra day after, swinging in the hammocks on the deck overlooking the sea. It had lovely views of the sea, birds and monkeys in its gardens and trees. And much enjoyed air conditioning! Emilio was great, met us at the boat from Sierpe to take us up the short hill from the beach, even though it would have been an easy 5 minute walk. He offered to take us to his farm to walk in nature but we were too tired to take the offer. Breakfast was hearty and delicious. He can also help arrange local boat tours and arranged our return trip back to Sierpe. Easy walk to several restaurants in town and the beach.

Great tiny apartment, very well furnished with a little terrace. The host was very nice and responded quickly. We saw an agouti in the morning and some wildlife around the apartment !

Casa Colibri makes you feel at home and part of nature! From the birds, butterflies, path to the river and amazing lower terrace and swimming hole, it's simply amazing! Walking distance to Chirripo park and trailhead, Cloudbridge and Talamanca, you are steps away from great hikes, clear mountain rivers and pools, and wildlife everywhere. You will love it!

We had the most enjoyable time. The stay was relaxing, with the air conditioning, after a day in f hiking or snorkeling. I recommend no less than three nights to see everything. Remember the suggestion to bring cash since there are no ATM machines. Using credit card causes a 13% fee at Blakes Bay (which is common due to remoteness).

We loved the place! We would definitely come back again! They helped me get a surf instructor and the lesson was very good!

We felt very comfortable, insofar as you are aware that the accommodation is outside the city. We were so impressed with the accommodation that we directly extended our stay. :)

Very nice tucked away little cabin. Good bed and very quiet. Little bit further away from sightseeing spots. But with über, bus and friendly Costa Ricans doable without a car. Hosts are very helpful and even offered driving me to a restaurant on arrival.

This may be our favorite Airbnb. Absolutely stunning surroundings, peaceful, incredible ammenities, & the cabin is exceptional! Everything was so clean & comfortable. There are only two cabins on site so it feels very private. The staff were wonderful & helped arrange awesome excursions including local waterfall hikes & a horse ride. The drive to get to it is a little tough with rough roads, but absolutely worth it & is likely what helps keep it so peaceful & quiet. When we think of Costa Rica we will fondly think of this amazing place. We will love to return & recommend to others.

I went with my 2 daughters (age 16 & 20) and we had a great time! The villa was beautiful, comfortable, and very well appointed. The view was incredible and just sitting on the porch listening to and watching the wildlife was the perfect way to relax. The fresh, local, organic food cooked by the staff was amazing! We enjoyed the pool, and a cold plunge in the spa. The gym was nice for a workout too. It’s about 20 mins to the towns and beaches in and around Nosara from the remote location up on the mountain so you aren’t popping in and out, but we planned ahead when we were spending time off site so it wasn’t a problem. The remote location made it special. Oh and the staff were all super friendly and accommodating! We highly recommend staying here.

We loved it. Christopher was easy-going, helpful, great host. Breakfast was fantastic. Such a beautiful area. Thank you!

The place is quite nice with a beautiful view of the city. The owner is very nice and helped with all questions. The room corresponds to the photos.

Pleasantly surprised by this little green setting right next to Nosara. The beach is just a few minutes away and the pool is very refreshing The place is quiet and nice and only accessible 4x4

Honking the horn after hours to come in was awkward and I was told not to even come unless I called first before I arrived even after I paid and got receipt and the convo consisted of nothing important.

Franciny's Airbnb was perfect for what we were looking for with a BEAUTIFUL view! I recommend staying here. The only issues was the wifi wasn't working. We realized it wasn't plugged in so we plugged it in and it connected with no wifi not sure if it was a user error or a wifi issue, but luckily the soda nearby had working wifi!

We had a lovely stay at Ana’s place. It’s a very nice decorated open tree house - so of corse there are some animals - but it was no problem with the insect net around the bed. In the morning we walked together through the property were we met all the other animals and everything was explained to us. The breakfast was really delicious and we felt very welcomed by the family . Thank you so much for the experience!

We loved our very short stay at this lodge! We did not stay for breakfast unfortunately, we had an early morning in the forest. We awoke to the sounds of birds chirping and mot mots right outside our front door! It was clean, Ruth and her staff were communicative, and the bed was cozy. We took a hike around the coffee farm and loved that, too! There was a lovely place to sit overlooking the plantation and there were birdfeeders for us to watch jays and hummingbirds, too.

Brett was incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. He even offered to pick things up for us and drive us to the other side of town. This spot is super cozy and perfect for bird watching.

The place was pretty warming, everything was great, cozy. Having the restaurant next to us was great , they even bring you the food to your place. The balcony was great to stay and have a drink. Everyone was friendly and the place helps you feel comfortable. Everything went great.

This place is absolutely beautiful and ideal for anyone who wants to take a real bath in the nature. The landscape is striking. We have listed 79 bird species in just 5 days. This stay made us feel crazy. A huge thank you to Axel for hosting us and for being available.
