Iguana Lodge is the Osa Peninsula's premier beach
ecolodge. Established over ten years
ago, Iguana Lodge is founded on the
principles of sustainable tourism and personalized
service. With nineteen luxurious
rooms scattered amidst
rainforest paths on the most beautiful beach of the
Osa Peninsula, Iguana Lodge
provides an unparalleled
experience, providing award winning accommodations,
exquisite dining, and a wide-range of activities
that fully illuminate the beauties of the Osa
Peninsula.
Meanwhile, Iguana Lodge
prides itself on its
spectacular Costa Rican staff, its
conservation efforts (including the turtle project),
and its community programs: the
Puerto Jimenez Public
Library and Todo Es Posible - our project to send
the Osa's high school graduates to university.
Located on the best beach on the Osa, Iguana Lodge
has many different spots to enjoy. The beach is
extraordinary, both restaurants renowned, a fabulous
fifty-foot lap pool with Jacuzzi and two gorgeous
yoga decks await you, meanwhile your lodging is fab,
and the Rancho Grande is truly an impressive jungle
structure: Gaudi would have been proud.
In the Rancho Grande everyone enjoys breakfast every
morning on the front decks. During the day when not
out on a tour, enjoying the beach or lazing around
the pool, practicing yoga or studying salsa, the
Rancho offers a variety of ways to while away the
hours. During the day folks wander through the
Rancho to enjoy the library and art gallery, watch
the sights unfold in the huge open air kitchen, play
a game of chess or a bit of music, read up on the
rainforest, join our staff in whipping up a fancy
dessert, and when needed, check in with planet earth
on our free internet and WiFi services. Throughout
the day our kitchen spins out inspiring meals, our
library lures folks to enjoy a good book or study up
on the rainforest (it is one of the largest on the
Osa - complete with its own crazed librarian), and
in the art gallery Ms. G. O'Keeffe would feel right
at home here amongst the flowers.
Upstairs in the evenings under the lofty native
thatched roof, lit by dozens of glowing candles, we
feast.

the secluded Casitas, the towering Villa Villa Kula,
