Lapa Rios is located in a private nature reserve spread over a thousand acres of Central America's last remaining lowland tropical rainforest. Overlooking the point where the Golfo Dulce meets the Pacific Ocean, this is paradise. Lapa Rios was built in harmony with its surrounding forests and beaches so as to minimize any effect on the environment. It is a pioneer in sustainable tourism and for that has won several awards from Conde Naste Traveler.

The hotel is perched over 350 feet above the sea, so as to catch the cooling tropical breezes. The restaurant and bar are housed in the main lodge, where a palm-thatched roof meets a three-story hardwood circular stairway. Climb the stairway to overlook the forest canopy and experience the breathtaking ocean views.

There are 14 thatched bungalows, all of which have an ocean view and are surrounded by the rainforest. Every room contains two queen size beds draped with mosquito netting. The tiled bathrooms have a shower and two sinks set in cristobal wood, which match the polished floors. Steady tropical breezes pass through screened window walls. Every bungalow also has a private deck and patio garden, complete with an outdoor shower.

Activities at Lapa Rios involve the surrounding forest and nearby ocean. There are miles of private trails in pristine rain forest, fresh rivers with waterfalls and natural pools, and beautiful, unspoiled beaches. Some of the activities include bird watching, rainforest hikes, horseback riding, ocean kayaking, catch and release sport fishing and surfing. Moreover, guests can receive massages, take part in Yoga classes, relax at the pool, or simply relax in the hammock on their balcony.

You will find that the private and romantic setting of Lapa Rios combined with the soothing comforts of your bungalow provide an experience that few will ever get to witness.
