About this property

Amid a tropical forest, these bungalows are the perfect site for guests to go canoeing at the nearby lake, or enjoy the outdoor pool and gardens. The property has its own fruit orchard. Maquenque Ecolodge’s bungalows have private terraces with a seating area overlooking the lake and feature private bathrooms with showers and toiletries. The property harvests 70% of the orchards produce and the on-site restaurant prepares with it local dishes. Maquenque Ecolodge also has a bar. About 2.5 mi away guests will be able to find other food options. Hiking in the premises or go for a horse ride are some of the activities offered to guests. The property may also help with the arrangements for boat tours to Boca San Carlos or going bird watching. San Carlos River is 328 feet from the property and the town of Boca Tapada is 2.5 mi away. San Jose International Airport can be reached in a 3-hour drive.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.

    Amazing opportunities to see flora and fauna from your porch, breakfast, or on a hike. Absolutely beautiful. The focus here is that it is an Ecolodge and not a 5 star resort- efforts are made to be earth conscious and respectful of the land.
