Travel Didn’t have to worry about anything. We were picked up at the airport at Puerta Jimenez and driven to the lodge. We were given an opportunity to stop at a grocery store before reaching the lodge in case we wanted our own food or supplies. I didn’t find that we needed anything. The road to the lodge is bumpy,...

We have stayed at Bosque del Cabo both times that we were fortunate enough to travel to Costa Rica. It was recommended by a friend and now we recommend it to everyone traveling to that part of the world. Phil and Kim are terriffic hosts and their staff goes overboard to meet your every need. Can't say enough about the... More

I are not sure now how many times we have stayed at this wonderful Eco Lodge, but suffice it to say more than 8 times and it always feels like our home in the rainforest. We have tried others around, but they aren't the same. The unique combination of incredible privacy and diverse animal populations can only be found in... More

We just returned from a week's stay at Bosque del Cabo and I must say that it far exceeded my expectations. I often use TripAdvisor as a resource, but have never been compelled to write a review until now. The lodge is absolutely beautiful and the staff goes out of their way to make sure that you're confortable and well... More

Bosque del Cabo is the perfect place for anyone who wants to get intimate with wild, untamed and remote nature and who has a hearty appetite for adventure. While it has most of the amenities that anyone could wish for, the primary appeal of the lodge BdC is its location... it's smack dab in the middle of one of the... More

This was our second trip to Costa Rica, Guanacaste area being our first trip. This was an amazing area to live in for a week. Being woken up in the morning by the Tucans and monkeys was absolutely amazing. The staff at the lodge were extremely nice and dedicated to making your stay relaxing. The pleasure was having the same... More

We were married at the Casa Miramar - just the 2 of us with one other couple in December '11. Kim (owner) helped us arrange everything from a private yoga session on our deck in the morning, massages, the lawyer, the flowers and a private chef to cook our celebration dinner. We had photo's taken around the gorgeous property by... More

We were not staying at this lodge but had our wedding ceremony here. We planned to have an private outdoor ceremony and when we arrived (all dressed in our wedding attire) we were all blown away at the beauty of the place. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. We couldn't have asked for a better place to get married.... More

Ride is about 1 hour to lodge on bumpy road, which went through river/creeks 3 times. Part of the adventure. The lodge has excellent Staff and is very attentive to requests. Grounds and trails are wonderful with wild life aplenty. View is stunning from Cabinas out to Pacific. The beds are comfortable and I loved the outdoor shower even though... More
