Our trip to the Osa Peninsula was by far the most unique and adventure filled vacation that our family has taken. Our kids are 15 and 13 and they did not want to leave El Remanso Lodge. They have told us it’s the only place they ever want to vacation again! El Remanso is literally in the middle of the... More

So not only is the Osa Peninsula one of the most breathtaking places I have ever seen, but staying at El Remanso made this trip a total dream. The staff is unbelievable-- friendly, accommodating and professional. They take amazing care of you -- arranging all of your activities, transportation and ensuring your safety. THE GROUNDS AND LODGE ARE GORGEOUS --... More

We chose our stay at the El Remanso to both experience the rainforest and as a getaway for the 2nd week of our honeymoon. We were married in Tamarindo in our 1st week and travelled to CR with 20 guests. What a great time that was!! But now, my wife and I were travelling by ourselves and ready for a... More

We had dreamed of going to the Osa for years and decided that we would splurge on a top resort according to the reviews we read on Trip Advisor! We were quite prepared for the long shuttle ride and rough road out to the resort but were not so pleased when our room advertised with a "view of the garden"... More

After having had a not so good experience with another lodge in Osa, we left early and wandered from the National Park 45 minutes to El Remanso. We'd had no reservation but they couldn't have been nicer and showed us two rooms that were luckily available. We were so happy to have a selection of food to choose from and... More

My husband and I just got back from an amazing trip to Costa Rica. We traveled all over the country, but our absolute FAVORITE part of the trip was our experience at the Osa Peninsula, especially our stay at El Remanso!!! From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty. We had someone waiting for us upon arrival who... More

Obviously if you are making the journey down to the Osa Peninsula you are doing so because you want to experience the true rain forest and there is absolutely no better place to do that than at El Remanso Lodge. My husband and I visited in mid-October (the heart of the green season and what is the rainiest month!) and... More

This is easily the best accommodation I've ever stayed in, and I'm sorry I haven't had the time to write and say so until now. The staff are phenomenal, the cabins gorgeous (and of course from time to time, a few insects will come inside - you're in the rainforest!), and the setting unbelievable. Scarlet macaws, monkeys, coatis, peccaries, toucans... More

Jan and I were recommended by a colleague in UK to stay at El Remanso so we initially booked for 3 days. Unusually, it seem, we drove there along and enjoyed every moment of our time. So much so that we stayed for an extra two days. All the staff were very helpful and enthusiastic in showing us all the... More
