Playa Cativo
Accessible only by boat and surrounded by the rainforest of Piedras Blancas National Park, Playa Cativo Lodge is an eco-luxury hideaway on Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast. With just a handful of beachfront casitas set amid tropical gardens, the lodge offers seclusion, tranquillity, and a deep connection to nature. Guests can swim in the calm waters of the Golfo Dulce, hike rainforest trails alive with wildlife, and enjoy farm-to-table dining featuring produce from the lodge’s own organic farm. A stay here combines barefoot luxury with immersive jungle adventure.
