The individual villas provided wonderful views of the lagoon and ocean. Views from the bathroom was a bonus. Owner/hosts were very friendly and accommodating and directly supported the evening discussions. Room was quite comfortable and basic. Expect to see and hear birds of all descriptions right from your private terrace.

The cabins were very comfortable. We also very much appreciated the private bathroom and shower. The food was thoughtfully and deliciously prepared. The staff was very helpful and attentive. I do have to say a special thank you to our wonderful and funny guide Joel.

Exceptional location in the middle of the rainforest. From our cabin we could see and hear the ocean in the distance. At night, there is no human-made light to be seen or sound to be heard. Instead, the night is filled with the sounds of the rainforest: cicadas, birds, howler monkeys.

It was our sixth trip to Costa Rica, and I can honestly say we have never met such outstanding hosts. Rocio and Carlos are exceptional. Rocio prepared delicious, healthy breakfasts and dinners every single day—so good that I happily abandoned any idea of staying on a diet. Carlos’s help with spotting wildlife was incredible, and the night walk with Bryan was remarkably productive. If there was anything negative, it’s only that our stay was too short. Two days weren’t enough, and next time we will definitely stay much longer. I also noticed a previous review mentioning limited power outlets or dim lighting. In our experience, the common area has plenty of outlets and everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. And it is definitely bird paradise.

The place was close to town. We rested here for one day after a long day of travel before heading towards Matapalo. The AC in the bedroom was very nice. The host Jose was very nice. He is a surf instructor and we saw him in the water at Matapalo.

This is a true gem. One of the last of its kind. A beautiful, affordable, tropical mountain retreat in the rainforest with more trails than we could hike in the extent of our stay. The owners were amazingly accommodating and great at communication. The communal cooking facilities were excellent.

What Guests Said About Carate:

A quiet, under-developed tropical destination, immersed in...

A quiet, under-developed tropical destination, immersed in the rainforest. There is no town per se, just properties immersed in green. Wonderful beaches, no one around for miles. The nearest bar / restaurant is 45 min away by car on a bad road. The nearest store is in Puerto Jimenez. Patchy cell phone reception. Spectacular nature, all around: birds, butterflies, monkeys.

My wife loves Playa Carate, and enjoyed her time at this lodge. (I went along as good hubbie, as nature is not my thing, so these are her views). The cabin we had was rustic but spacious, set in the rain forest and with a great view. 3 types of monkey could be seen,and she reports the birding was very good. We stayed 3 nights, and went to the same spot on the beach each day. Carate is definitely the place to see macaws. My wife also loves its remoteness and isolation.

We loved staying up in the trees with wildlife all around us. Squirrel and Spider monkeys nearby and Howler monkeys off in the distance but very audible. Hummingbirds and leaf cutter ants part of the parade of nature. Staff were very helpful and personable. Christian helped to get us a great guide for Corcovado National Park. Wendell went out of his way to show us It is helpful to know some Spanish. The food was simple but good.

The lodge is set directly on the beach, nestled in lush vegetation and palm trees, far from everything, yet just a 3.5 km walk from Carate. The bungalows offer all modern comforts, along with a pleasant bar and restaurant serving food at fair, market-rate prices. An ideal place to disconnect from everyday life or to unwind for a few days after a multi-day trek in nearby Corcovado National Park.
