Overview
Bosque del Cabo Lodge, with its private cliff- top bungalows, is situated on a point 500 feet above the Pacific Ocean on the remote Osa Peninsula, near Corcovado National Park. This unique rainforest lodge is a secluded getaway and a photographer's dream come true! The property, a 500+ acre forest reserve, is flanked on one side by the beautiful Golfo Dulce and on the other by the endless Pacific Ocean, offering unparalleled photographic opportunities. Literally teeming with life, the Osa Peninsula is one of the most biologically diverse places in existence, boasting over 400 species of birds (of which 20 are endemic), 117 species of reptiles, and almost 10,000 species of insects.
