Tiskita Jungle Lodge

Incredible place.

Our stay at the Tiskita Jungle Lodge was very dreamlike. Laying in a hammock on the back porch of our lodge which overlooked the ocean while surrounded by the nature of the jungle with monkeys and toucans nearby. The meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner included with our stay) were out of this world delicious! Walks through the jungle towards the fruit farm and waterfall w/swim pools were quite scenic as well. I also highly recommend horseback riding from Tiskita Jungle Lodge to catch the sunset along the beach where the jungle meets the ocean. It is truly a “bucket list” to-do that you will most enjoy and remember forever.

If you are a bird watcher and/or love wild unspoiled places next to the beach, you won't find a better place to stay. The care you will be given makes you feel like part of their family. Their intention is preservation of the rainforest and wildlife and they do everything they can to help you appreciate it.

We arrived to a very warm welcome from the family who owned the lodge. Our bags were taken to our cabin while we had lunch (all meals were included) and then we were shown to the cabin from where we had fantastic views of the Pacific. The lodge is situated in a beautiful jungle estate with walking trails which enabled us to see some amazing wildlife but it is only a five minute walk from the beach and there is excellent surfing nearby. There is a very knowledgeable guide available to take you on wildlife tours of the estate. Although it is in a remote part of Costa Rica (we went by plane and taxi), this was the highlight of our trip and we wished we could have stayed longer. It is not a five star hotel but it is a five star experience and we certainly hope to go back.
