Iguana Verde
FROM $40
Iguana Verde is settled along the shores of Playa Zancudo, a black sand beach that is renowned for both its unassuming natural beauty and mellow atmosphere. Located in Costa Rica’s Southern Pacific region, Playa Zancudo has much to offer the visitor, including superb sport fishing, surfing, and nature watching.
The beach itself is composed of a 10-km stretch of sand, most of which is gorgeous and deserted. In places, the water lapping at the beach’s palm-backed shores is tranquil and smooth, making it perfect for swimming or snorkeling. Other places find rougher, wave-strewn water that is nice for surfing or boogie boarding. The ocean also offers itself up for kayaking, scuba diving, and water skiing. Back on land, visitors will enjoy horseback rides along the Río Coto Colorado or trips to the Casa Orquideas Botanical Gardens. A small fishing village provides travelers with a smattering of bars, restaurants and sport fishing operations.
While staying at Iguana Verde, you’re never far from the beach. The hotel, which is composed of a series of single-room cabinas, is a mere few feet from the ocean; you’ll hear the sea murmuring and feel its breeze blowing throughout the day and night. The grounds are green and verdant, a mishmash of palm trees, almond trees, and colorful tropical flowers. The cabinas themselves come equipped with a private hot water shower, refrigerator, cable TV, DVD player, and air conditioning. Guests will undoubtedly be comfortable and relaxed while staying at Iguana Verde.
The hotel also runs its own bar and restaurant, a thatched-roof, open-air affair that serves a variety of food, including both local cuisine and international dishes. A complementary continental breakfast is offered every morning, while a selection of cocktails and other beverages have become the specialties of the night. Iguana Verde’s staff prides themselves on attention to detail, and works hard to ensure that their guests have an experience that is both enjoyable and memorable.
