La Leona Ecolodge

A tent deck between rainforest and Pacific

The Pacific and the rainforest meet around the tent cabins at La Leona Ecolodge. Next to Corcovado National Park’s La Leona Ranger Station, the lodge is part of a 500-acre family-owned rainforest property. Here, the accommodation brings you close to the surroundings: a wooden platform, a deck and the sounds of forest and ocean rather than the separation of a conventional hotel room.

Choose your outlook and bathroom arrangement

The lodge’s eco-tourism character begins with the tent cabins themselves. Ocean or rainforest outlooks and wooden platforms keep the setting close. Most tent cabins have tropical-style bathrooms and beds with quality mattresses, bringing useful comforts into the nature-focused stay. A deck with chairs gives you somewhere to stay still for a while, listening and taking in the fragrances of the forest or sea.

Ocean View Tents sit on the beach, with private decks for taking in the breeze and watching the Pacific sunset. Behind them, Monkey’s Camp Tents lie closer to the forest, with deck chairs and private bathrooms featuring roofless showers. Shared Bathroom Tents retain their own decks but use bathroom and shower facilities in a separate nearby area. The bathroom arrangement is an important part of choosing your stay.

Explore, then return to the coast

Professionally guided tours introduce the countryside, culture and natural life around La Leona, with Corcovado hikes offering a closer look at the park’s forest. Surf lessons with a professional surfer bring another way to experience the coast. Afterward, return to the tent setting you chose: a beach deck and ocean breeze, or the forest closer around you. Wildlife may appear around the tents or on outings, making time to watch part of the pleasure.

La Leona is for travelers who want nature close at hand and are comfortable with a tent-cabin experience. The different settings and bathroom choices let you decide how you want to live alongside this wild stretch of the Osa coast.
