Our family recently stayed in the Casa Blanca House at Bosque del Cabo and had one of the best vacation experiences ever. The house was clean, comfortable and had an amazing porch overseeing the Pacific Ocean. We loved watching the monkey troops swing in the trees as we sat on our porch. I was expecting the bedrooms to be uncomfortable... more

We travelled with our twin six year old boys. Extremely active, beautiful casitas and perfect for our family. The staff was lovely. The chef, Maureen was more than happy to cook up a platter of mac and cheese , chicken fingers or whatever was requested for the little ones, while the adults dined on delicious local food. And if you... more

We stayed at Bosque del Cabo at Casa Blanca .I think the house was definetely not what is stated in all positive reviews.The house is run down and need a big remodeling.Also pest control is a must.I know that Bosque is eco lodge,but there is also ecological spray against insects. When I planed my vacation I solely depended on reviews... more

When my girlfriend and I were planning our trip Costa Rica we knew that we only had a limited amount of time to stay and wanted to see only the best places. I had travelled to the Osa Peninsula before and knew that there was a magical place at the tip of Cabo Matapalo called Bosque del Cabo. We ended... more

WOW! What a trip to beautiful Bosque del Cabo. We stayed there in Casa Blanca, a home just perfect for couples or whole families. It is located above the ocean and just perfect to sit on the porch and watch the Pacific Ocean. The whole area, the 750 acres, is so safe to be at. Its on the south-west tip... more

Well, I can't say very much that hasn't been said about BDC. I think that the last reviewer hit the nail on the head. I will try and comment on the items that stood out. Location: Great location. Stunning grounds. The trees and other plants are all enormous. Think Jurassic Park (but replace dinosaurs with monkeys). Food: The food was... more

After reading the previous comments, I feel it's necessary to put my two cents worth in. This was our 6th trip to Bosque (we've travelled all around CR) - but always end up back at Bosque!! Imagine having the wildlife co-existing with you... AMAZING. We also stayed at Casa Blanca and LOVED it. It was the most relaxing time ever.... more

All the reviews of this place were so great that my only worry was that it wouldn't live up to my expectations - I'm pleased to report that it more than lived up to its reputation. As long as you know what you're getting into - a cabina in the rainforest, you'll be fine. That means if you go during... more

We spent 2 nights in Casa Blanca at Bosque del Cabo.My parents my mother in law (73 years old),my husband, and my sons 7, 16, years old. We originally booked this cabin for whole week. First impression of the house was dirty and shabby everywhere you look. Toilet seats were not changed for long time and it was bubbly and... more

If you're looking for overwhelming wildlife, dramatic views, friendly caring staff that go above & beyond, luxe rooms, an honest commitment to sustainability and great food - look no further than Bosque del Cabo. I've tried over the years to find other places that could come close and have stayed a very nice places but still none can compare which... more
