IGUANA LODGE
and Iguana's Pearl of the Osa

Welcome to the Iguana Lodge...deep in the costa rican rainforest, planted on A MAGNIFICENT beach, there lives a world that once was all there was...the surf rolls in...the moon rises...the fiery-billed aracaris sing and the howler monkeys call...and on the veranda we await you to join in our quest FOR TRUE ADVENTURE WHILE refining the vanishing but cherished art of relaxation

As one favorite guest put it: "The only problem here is ... when you wake up you think you died and went to heaven." 

Straight out of "Jungle Architectural Digest", the  private tree-house like  bungalows are steps from the most beautiful beach on the Osa Peninsula. Set on pillars and built with indigenous hardwoods, self-sustaining bamboo, and cana-blanca, with bamboo furniture and exotic bathrooms, it is challenging to find a more exquisite place to spend a few nights of your life.

Each of our luxuriously rustic two-story bungalows has beautiful bedrooms, with large orthopedic beds, Egyptian cotton sheets, soft pillows, good reading lights, and hefty fans. Each bungalow, of course, has its own exotic hot-water shower (a rarity in the Osa), with stone floors; some bungalows have semi-outdoor garden showers.
 Perhaps best of all, is your own huge private, shaded deck: you can sprawl peacefully in a swaying hammock or read a good book in a plush lounge chair as you overlook the magnificent Golfo Dulce and the lovely and fragrant tropical gardens of Iguana Lodge.

 

The main rancho is an awesomely impressive jungle structure. On the lower veranda breakfast is served (whenever you like)...and major relaxation occurs. (Inside the lower story is a large kitchen and library/research area stocked full of interesting information about the rain forest...we have also been told we have one of the largest reading libraries in the Osa, not to mention a self-proclaimed inspired librarian.)

 

 The upper story is where we feast every evening...it is a fantastic lofty space, with an ocean view in a classic tropical setting, lit by dozens of candles glowing under its massive thatched palm roof.
Iguana Lodge now has a lovely Japanese Bathhouse where you may partake in the ancient, oriental art. You can combine this with a massage if you like.

No matter whether you spend the day repelling down waterfalls, boogie boarding in the waves, or napping on your hammock, everyone looks forward to the evening's feast.  To take a trip into the Fabulous Iguana Lodge Kitchen.
