Costa Rica - Every Paddler's Dream Trip

Type: Rainforest Lodges and Boutique Hotels

Our Paddler's Dream Trip itinerary features small, one-of-a-kind rainforest and jungle lodges. Great care has gone into our selection of lodging partners, with particular emphasis on lodges that offer outstanding wildlife viewing opportunities. These breathtaking lodges offer all the comforts of home, including hot & cold water, flush toilets, tastefully decorated beds (often orthopedic with Guatamalan fabrics), and delicious home cooked meals, sometimes extravagant, always healthy, and catering to special dietary needs.

Note: The lodges below are representative samples, but specific lodges are not guaranteed. Wild Planet Adventures reserves the right to substitute lodges based on conditions, logistics and availability.

La Quinta De Sarapiqi

La Quinta Country Inn

This gorgeous riverside rainforest lodge is one of very few certified by the Costa Rican National Accreditation Commission for Sustainable Tourism. Set on 9 acres, the lodge features delightful private cabins, a pool, extensive naturalist library, authentic Costa Rican restaurant, frog and butterfly gardens, ponds and extensive trails.

Villa Decary

Villa Decary - Arenal

Universally raved about in every guidebook, Villa Decary is set in a remote location in the hills overlooking lake Arenal, with Arenal volcano at one end of the lake, and Monteverde Cloudforest at another.

Villa Decary's spacious rooms have their own entry, private tiled bath, as well as their own balcony with scenic views overlooking the lake, rain forest and mountains. The rooms, accented by colorful fabrics from Guatemala and pottery lamps made by the Chorotega Indians, all reflect the workmanship of local Costa Rican artisans who have crafted the fine wood doors and furnishings.

Villa Teca - Manuel Antonio/Quepos

Villa Teca - Manuel Antonio

Ideally situated in a quiet, secluded area of Manuel Antonio, Villa Teca's comfortable cabins are surrounded by tropical gardens and visited by pleasant ocean breezes. A pool, outdoor bar and restaurant give this a relaxed ocean villa vibe.
