"Excellent boutique dome style hotel….front desk was very hospitable making sure I was content even connecting me with a massage therapist. Great location and pool!"

La Cusinga Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely property. Full of trails in its reserve. Went to the shore - 20 minutes through the woods - to the most magnificent and wild shore. Like heaven! Also went to the natural pool and waterfall - beautiful and cool! The garden, the ocean view from every spot, and the natural and simple wooden rooms - all was a great scene for nature. Dishes of the hotel restaurant (lunch/dinner), not cheap but very tasty. The only thing we missed is an umbrella (which was a must in any other hotel this time of year) for all very wet evenings that we got wet until got to the car..."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Palmar?

The best area to stay in Palmar is along the coastal stretch near Uvita and Dominical, which offers direct access to beaches and the natural beauty of the region.This coastal area is the main draw for visitors, providing a mix of luxury resorts and boutique hotels. It's characterised by lush rainforest meeting the Pacific Ocean, with key landmarks like Marino Ballena National Park just a short drive away. The main road, Route 34, runs parallel to the coast, making it easy to navigate between towns and attractions.For couples seeking a romantic and secluded getaway, the area around Uvita is an excellent choice. Hotels here often boast stunning ocean views and direct beach access, allowing for private moments by the sea. You can enjoy activities like whale watching (seasonal) or exploring the famous "Whale's Tail" sandbar in Marino Ballena National Park.Families will find the Dominical area particularly appealing due to its relaxed atmosphere and range of activities. The beaches are generally good for learning to surf, and there are plenty of options for nature tours, such as guided hikes to waterfalls or wildlife spotting excursions.

When is the best time to go to Palmar?

The best time to go to Palmar is during the dry season, which runs from December to April.During these months, you'll experience consistently sunny days and lower humidity, making it ideal for exploring the region's natural attractions. The weather is great for visiting the nearby Corcovado National Park, where wildlife spotting is a popular activity, or for enjoying the beaches without the interruption of heavy rain.May to November marks the green season, characterised by more frequent rainfall, particularly in the afternoons. While the landscape is lusher and waterfalls are more impressive, some roads might become trickier to navigate, and outdoor activities could be impacted. However, this period can offer a more tranquil experience with fewer visitors and often better value on accommodation.For those looking to maximise outdoor adventures and sunshine, the dry season is definitely the preferred choice.
