Bosque del Cabo

Let the rainforest into your Osa stay

At Bosque del Cabo, the rainforest is part of the accommodation experience. Open-air designs bring the sounds and scents of the forest into bungalows, garden rooms and ocean-view cabins, while trails lead into a private reserve in Cabo Matapalo. This is an Osa Peninsula stay for travelers who want to spend time noticing what surrounds them, rather than simply passing through on the way to an excursion.

A private reserve at your doorstep

The 750-acre privately owned reserve gives Bosque del Cabo’s conservation commitment a setting you can explore on foot. For birdwatchers and wildlife enthusiasts, the pleasure is having habitat around you throughout the stay, not only at the destination of a tour. Give the lodge’s own trails a morning of your vacation and let the forest set its own pace.

Thatched roofs, rustic comfort and outdoor places to pause give the lodge its character. Settle into a hammock, wander through the botanical gardens or follow a forest trail with time to look upward. Scarlet macaws, toucans, monkeys and sloths inhabit the reserve; encountering them is a possibility to enjoy, never an appointment to count on.

Explore Corcovado, then return to the lodge

Conservation and sustainable practices shape the lodge’s approach. Guided outings to Corcovado National Park can take that exploration further, with hikes through rainforest and a landscape of waterfalls and biodiversity. Plan a park outing alongside time in the reserve at your doorstep, so you can enjoy both the wider Osa landscape and the quieter hours around the lodge.

Daily meals with a Golfo Dulce outlook

Meals bring the experience back to the lodge. Fresh, locally sourced ingredients, often harvested from its organic gardens, feature in Costa Rican flavors served with a Golfo Dulce outlook. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included daily. Tell the lodge about dietary restrictions well ahead of the stay so those needs can be planned for.

Choose the accommodation for the outlook and atmosphere you want, then give the days room to unfold. A trail walk, a shared meal and a quiet hour listening to the forest are good reasons to make Bosque del Cabo part of a nature-focused vacation.
