If you're looking for a true tropical, unspoiled jungle environment, where you can explore the ecosystem at your own pace, come up to the northern zone of Costa Rica to our jungle hideaway and visit "La Laguna del Lagarto Lodge". Located approximately 150 km (90 miles) from San José and just 15 km (7 miles) from the Nicaraguan border, La Laguna del Lagarto Lodge is surrounded by 500 hectares (1,250 acres) of virgin tropical rain forest. At your leisure, you can roam through this tropical paradise alone or with a local guide, on more than ten miles of well maintained foot trails. Red and green poison dart frogs are plentiful, as are all three species of monkeys. Toucans, parrots, caimans, and Jesus Christ Lizards are common sightings, as are an incredible variety of plants and approximately 150 species of trees. In addition, over 350 different species of birds have been recorded, among them the rare Great Green Macaw. There are also small pepper, heart of palms, yucca and pineapple plantations, where you can see typical tropical farming procedures. The lodge is secluded and cozy, we have 20 double rooms, all of which include hot water and ceiling fans; 18 rooms have private baths. Our open view restaurant features a traditional Costa Rican menu at breakfast, lunch and dinner. The locally grown food ensures tasteful and healthy meals, in addition to the tropical drinks and snacks which are made available throughout the day. The lodges balcony serves as a terrific resting point for viewing the many forest edge birds which so often makes themselves visible, including the raptors and carrion feeders which are now rare in most of Costa Rica.
