Playa Nicuesa Rainforest Lodge, Golfito

Overview

Tucked away in flourishing rainforest on the edge of the Golfo Dulce, and accessible only by boat, the Playa Nicuesa Rainforest Lodge is all about living in harmony with nature.  

The lodge has a range of rustic yet comfortable cabins and guest rooms, all designed with an open-air flow to bring you closer to nature. Built from sustainably sourced wood, the rooms feature handcrafted furniture, ceiling fans, a private bathroom with solar-heated outdoor shower, and a veranda with hammock – perfect for enjoying views over the sea or jungle.

Designed in the style of a treehouse, the open-air restaurant sits up in the canopy and serves delicious Costa Rican dishes, with an emphasis on fresh fish, tropical fruits, and veggies, many of which are grown right in the lodge’s own gardens.

Playa Nicuesa is a stunning spot form which to enjoy the clear, calm waters of Golfo Dulce, ideal for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, dolphin watching, and fishing – or just lounging at the beach! You may wish to take a guided trip into the remote and untouched Piedras Blancas or the renowned Corcovado National Park, or sign up for the lodge’s yoga classes or a massage.
