FINCA EXOTICA ECO LODGE
We offer different types of accommodation depending on your budget, from nature campsites to bungalows with private pools.
A good base to explore the park, very close to Carate, with a beautiful view of the ocean and exotic common areas to relax in. The school is run by a German married to a Costa Rican woman. Different types of accommodation are available depending on the budget for those who want to enjoy the setting without breaking the bank, from nature camping (but above all comfort!) to bungalows with private swimming pool in a refined Robinson style. Yoga platform and restaurant all in bamboo facing the Pacific. Very beautiful place, and very environmentally friendly!

We (a couple with 2 kids) stayed at Finca Exotica Eco Lodge for 3 nights.
The property is nicely located at the southern end of Corcovado national park. The road from Porto Jimenez towards Carate where the lodge is located takes 1.5h over unpaved, graveled roads (4x4 not mandatory but recommended).
The entire property is a remote lodge run by a couple who bought the property some 30 years ago, invested extensively in reforesting the former farmland and bring back native plants attracting birds and other animals. It has several basic houses, beds with mosquito nets, outdoor showers, and breathtaking views. No WiFi on the entire property except at the entrance on the main road. The food is delicious and the owners helpful and friendly. Swimming in the pacific is not recommended due to the strong rip currents.
The lodge we had contained two single beds and one queen sized bed with mosquito nets, an outdoor shower and a hammock.
For the three nights we paid USD 1300 (including food, but no other services) as well as 230 USD for the mandatory guide and entrance to the Corcovado national park, so over USD 1500 for the three days at Finca Exotica.
All in all, we consider Finca Exotica as a beautiful spot providing an excellent opportunity to see CR wildlife, however the price tag is at the high(est) end with over USD 320 per day (!).
If you do not care about money at all and are keen to explore a rather wild part of CR with very basic infrastructure only, Finca Exotica may be your place.
