Spotlight Costa Rica-Lagarta Lodge on Nosara Beach in Costa Rica, See the Sea Turtles nesting

Lagarta Lodge is a small hotel sitting in the mist of a private nature reserve and with views to the beautiful blue green waters of the Pacific Ocean.  So if you are planning on a vacation to Costa Rica and want a place "off the beaten path".  A place with a great beach plus opportunities for nature walks  and bird watching in a tropical forest, then this is the place for you.  Its tranquil and beautiful.  The hotel is small and the service is very good, not hoards of tourists everywhere.

The waves are  big and surfing is good.  You can rent a surf board through the hotel  and  you can arrange for surf lessons.

The view to the Pacific Ocean from the rooms is lovely and you can walk to the beach in less than ten-fifteen  minutes.  The restaurant is open so you can feel the warm breezes and there is a nice view of the ocean.

You may  want to have a rental car or your own vehicle  if you don't want to do the walk to the beach.   On the way back it is a strenuous up hill walk.

A big event here May through November is the Olive Ridley Sea turtles coming ashore to lay their eggs, usually right after a full moon when the nights are very dark.
