Bisque del Cabo exceeded our expectations! The staff, villas, view from the villa, the food, grounds, and the wildlife on the grounds. A naturalist provides walking tours to discuss the wildlife which was very informative. We can’t say enough good things about our stat

There are vacations, and then there are vacations. This place is about as unique as they come. A few things to be aware of. First the drive from the Airport is a 7 hour drive. Be prepared for that. Once you arrive to the climb in the mountains, it can be rough. Be sure to rent the right vehicle for that. It can be a challenge to find it in the dark. Once there, it’s an absolute paradise. I stayed in the upgraded house Casa Cocoa which is absolute paradise. It has the most unbelievable view of the pacific, with the Forrest and plenty wildlife constantly from monkeys to birds, parrots, sloths , humming birds etc. The food is healthy and delicious and the staff is amazing. I can’t recommend it enough. The challenging drive and climb is well worth this experience and I would rate this vacation one of the best of my life. Go!

Die Ecolodge ist schon toll, auch wenn das Areal, in dem die Lodges stehen, überall in USA auch stehen könnte, es ist dort "sehr aufgeräumt". Trotzdem ist der Aufenthalt etwas besonderes. Der angrenzende Regenwald ist riesig mit vielen Trails und einer Hängebrücke. Auch die Tiersichtungen während wir im Restaurant saßen, war wie im Kino, echt toll! Das Personal ist extrem freundlich. Wir wurden bei jeder Begegnung mit Namen angesprochen. Die Lodges lassen sich nicht abschließen, womit ich mich nachts unwohl gefühlt habe. Auch kann es durch die fehlende AC sehr sehr warm werden.

Bosque del Cabo is a destination in itself. Overlooking the Pacific and Gulf on the Osa Peninsula it is beautifully maintained, wildlife are all around, trails are rugged and moderate, and the staff could not be more personal and helpful. Meals are delicious We had menu choices for breakfast and lunch; dinner was a communal buffet with many options. There are cookies out and cocktail appetizers. Our cabin was perfect-a thatched spacious casita with a large bathroom and lovely outdoor garden shower. All very private. The deck had lounge chairs, hammock, table and chairs and a breathtaking view of the ocean with birds swooping all day. The owner was just wonderful and on the property and the people we met were very interesting and good company. I highly recommend Bosque! We can’t say enough good things about it. Be aware, the road to the airport and beach is a very bumpy ride and the planes from San Jose are only 10-seaters.

Highlights: - Close up photo opportunities with coatis, spider monkeys, iguanas and peccaries - Wide open and beautiful gardens to see hummingbirds, toucans, parrots and macaws - Delicious and plentiful food - Incredible staff who quickly make you feel part of the family - Wide range of walking trails from easy to tough – especially the Pacific Trail that leads to a secret waterfall hidden from the beach - At the junction of Golfo Dulce and the Pacific – so, opportunity to see pilot (and humpback) whales in season We stayed in Ylang cabina, perched 120m above the Golfo Dulce, on the edge of the jungle. Fabulous deck for watching the spider monkeys playing in the nearby tree. Spacious bedroom and lounge area. So lovely to be able to hear all the jungle noises during the night through the netted windows as this is an eco-resort run by micro-hydro and solar, so there’s no aircon (or fridge/hair-dryer) but enough power to run a ceiling fan and lights at night. What gives this resort its charm is the incredible ability of all the staff to immediately make you feel part of their family (special thanks to Glenda, Heylin, Mar and Felipe who all went the extra mile and are just charming). That and the many residents who’ve been coming back for years – who we got to know over Tico Sour cocktails at 6pm and the communal dinner (signalled at 7pm by a conch shell horn.
