At the Iguana Lodge on the Osa Peninsula, remoteness is considered a key element in achieving joy, health, and well-being, but the resort plenty of activities, including a 20-meter lap pool, Jacuzzi, two yoga decks, and adventure excursions like scuba diving, zip lining, rappelling down waterfalls, and panning for gold. The two on-site restaurants, Iguana Rancho and The Pearl of the Osa, serve tropical dishes like steak au poivre, ginger-chile grilled mahi-mahi, and shrimp étouffée. Accommodation includes 19 rooms with three lodging options: small, private casitas; a three-story villa; and upscale club rooms.
Room to Book:
Reserve the two-story casitas — set on pillars and crafted with indigenous hardwoods and bamboo — for more privacy. Steps from the beach, each casitas has a hot-water shower and private, shaded deck.
Insider Tip:
To fully enjoy Iguana Lodge, a high tolerance to tropical climate is essential, especially considering there is no air conditioning.
