La Pequena Casa (The Little House) might only have 1 bedroom but it lives large! With one large bedroom (queen size bed), a pull-out sofa (queen size) and a second sofa (twin size), it offers all the comforts of home.
The best part of any Costa Rican home is outside! Our house backs onto the jungle and you can often hear howler monkeys in the distance and they are sometimes visible in the trees. You enter the house from a shaded patio .... just 20 steps from the pool where you can enjoy sun in the morning and shade in the afternoon. There are also two other pools in the community that are available for your use.

We are a short drive to multiple beaches in the area, each with a different flavor: great for walking, boogie boarding, surfing or lounging at the Tikki Hut for lunch and a drink.
Great beaches to explore:
Tamarindo is a vibrant surf destination within 35 minute drive of Eco Lagarto. Consider surf lessons or just enjoy a day in the shops and lunch on the playa. You can rent a boogie board for about $5 USD.
Playa Junquillal - a long stretch of beach with beautiful brown sand - this beach has a turtle breeding program
San Juanillo - a great calm beach, perfect for swimming - restaurant on the beach
Ostional - As one of the most important locations in the world to see turtles in Costa Rica, Ostional Wildlife Refuge is a must visit for animal lovers. Check their Facebook page for details on when the turtles are laying eggs or hatching dates.
Just check the map .... the list of beaches is endless
The Eco Lagarto staff can arrange activities such as surf lessons, fishing trips, zip lining, turtle tours, natural hot spring tours, waterfall and wildlife hikes, jungle canopy tours, and more. Just ask. We speak your language.
