Cabinas Los Cocos

Southern Costa Rica & Península de Osa


Capuchin monkeys swing through the coco trees at this beachfront property. Los Cocos is home to two historical cabins that used to be banana-company homes in Palmar, until they were transported to Zancudo and restored. The other two rancho cabins are also charming, with loft sleeping areas under palm-frond roofs, not to mention wide porches with (of course) a hammock.
