Carate Hotels
A nesting grounds for endangered sea turtles, Carate's remote location on the southwestern coast of the Osa Peninsula provides perfect protection for all kinds of wildlife. Settle into a 3-star eco-lodge with private bungalows, spa services, and waterfalls or opt for a luxury tent experience from an elevated platform deep in the jungle or overlooking the ocean sunsets. Nearby, take a guided hike through the tropical wilderness found in Corcovado National Park featuring 8 unique habitats with over 400 species of birds. You'll find scuba diving, kayaking, and fishing tours especially for the angler. Surf lessons and horseback riding are also in the area. Of course, you may want to just relax and enjoy the sound of the ocean, aroma of the flowers, indulge in a massage or even go dancing! Easiest to reach by plane but note the luggage weight limit of 25 pounds per person. Totally awesome!
