Don't let the long drive down the dirt road stop you from enjoying this wonderful lodge. We had booked a cabin room, but since they were not busy we were upgraded to a treehouse cabin on the second floor and we were so glad to be there! The cabin was such a unique experience....completely screened in with wonderful ocean and... More

My family (including 2 boys ages 5 and 8) spent 4 nights at the Iguana Lodge in March. Overall we loved the experience. We've been to CR 3 times and the OSA is the most beautiful part of the country.The hotel's location is spectacular - situated in the jungle on a pristine white sand beach. The general spaces of the... More

We went to Costa Rica for the first time this February (my husband, my mother in law and me). Iguana Lodge was our last stop on our 10-day trip. We spent three wonderful nights here. We had booked two club rooms, but upon arrival, Giovanni, one of the many wonderful people at the front desk, happily informed us that we'd... More

We stayed in a club room facing the ocean on a particularly quiet week. It felt like we had the place to ourselves. We did activities in the morning (tree climb with Andy was the best!) then had lunch and a siesta followed by yoga, swim or a walk by the ocean in the afternoon. Yoga with Tracy was great.... More

We traveled to Costa Rica to see the wildlife and to be removed from the most visited beaches, parks, and tourist attractions and decided on the Osa Peninsula. We truly enjoyed our stay at the Iguana Lodge--from the delicious breakfast to start the day (included), to the family-style meal prepared by an extraordinary chef, to the food offered at the...

We stayed 3 nights at Iguana Lodge, just after New Years. It's a very lovely, peaceful place, just 10 min. from Puerto Jimenez and airport access. The casitas are extremely comfortable, and ours had a beautiful Golfo Dulce view, from the massive deck (and the gulf swimming was great.) It's not inexpensive, especially at that time of year, yet a... More

We stayed here for three nights at the start of our Osa vacation. We decided on the lub rooms as opposed to the more expensive casitas (we weren't planning on spending much time in the rooms as we had activities galore planned). The club rooms are located above one of the IL's two restaurants, with a direct view of the... More
