Waleska's bungalows right next to the beach

Located directly at the beach Playa Platanares, only 6km east of Puerto Jimenez. It is one of the best beaches on the Osa Peninsula, still natural, remote, lonely, with dark sand, palm trees and beach almond trees, which attract a lot of scarlet macaws. Each beach house has an open kitchen, a living area and bathroom on the ground floor, and a bedroom on the first floor with a balcony overlooking the garden. Fresh water is pumped straight from our on site well. A prime location only 30 seconds walk from the untouched, pristine beach, as well as being within the Costa Rican jungle, this property is popular with all kinds of wildlife. Regular visitors include howler monkeys, white faced capuchin monkeys, squirrel monkeys, scarlet macaws, toucans, hawks, as well as resident crabs, frogs, iguanas, geckos and more! We are also right next to a popular nesting beach for four different types of sea turtles. Although we say no events or parties, we sometimes have bonfires on the beach. As well as access to your own bungalow and private balcony, you are free to explore the rest of the property. We also have direct access to the beach, just seconds away! I live on site, and am available if you need assistance with anything during your stay. We have staff on the property 24/7. We are 15 minutes taxi journey away from the local town of Puerto Jimenez, which has everything you need - large supermarket, restaurants, cafes, beach bars, pharmacies and gift shops. In the immediate area, we have two lovely hotels from where you can have a drink, a meal, and use the pool (for a small fee) - though you may prefer to swim in the sea as it is right on your doorstep! There are many things to do around the area, and we are more than happy to help you plan activities to make the most of your stay on the Osa Peninsula. Activities include: kayaking in the mangroves, fishing, surfing, nature hikes into Corcovado National Park, boat tours for whale and dolphin spotting, snorkeling, chocolate tours, canopy tours, crocodile watching, and horseback riding. We have on site parking for cars and motorbikes, though taxi services are readily available - please ask us. You may also store bicycles here, and it is around 30 minutes cycle ride into town. We offer a free airport shuttle service for stays of a month or more. Breakfast is available at at an additional cost of $6 per person, which includes fresh Costa Rican coffee made in the traditional way, fresh local fruit, and the typical Costa Rican breakfast, pinto (eggs, rice, beans, vegetables and fried plantains).
