Aguila de Osa

The Aguila de Osa is set on a high bluff overlooking the Aguitas River with panoramic views of Drake Bay, just outside Corcovado National Park. There are no roads to the inn—access is only via a 1-hour ride by motor launch. The inn's 11 rooms and 2 suites are open and spacious, with screened windows to ensure a tropical breeze. They feature large Italian-tiled bathrooms, cathedral ceilings, ceiling fans, and 24-hour electricity. A lighted, paved trail connects the rooms with the inn's restaurant and reception area. The open-air restaurant serves family-style meals, including fresh seafood from the lodge's boats. The Aguila de Osa is the best choice for more active travelers because the rooms are arranged on a steep hillside and there is some steep walking to get between the rooms and the restaurant.
