Located on a very special beach. Development here has not been as invasive as in many other beaches in the area. Playa Ostional is the best turtle beach in Costa Rica.
The Lodge is a small family business located next to the mangroves of the Ostional River, it borders the Wildlife Refuge and it is just a walk away from the main nesting beach.
The property merges with the protected area that stretches over three beaches and it is also part of a wider mangroves system. It is surrounded by the peninsula’s dry primary forest, a great spot for bird watching. Easy to see iguanas, monkeys and crabs.
The numbers of turtles coming to Ostional beach for nesting purposes increases as the rainy season peaks, the biggest arribadas occur on the coolest months from May to November, with a 40 to 50 days hatchling period. Sand temperature determines the baby turtle´s sex. In the absence of arribadas turtles may also nest alone.
