As you arrive at Eco-Turismo Guayacanes, just three kilometers from the golden sands of Playa Sámara, the first thing you notice is the peaceful silence broken only by the sound of birds and the rustle of monkeys in the trees. The property feels like its own world, tucked into the tropical dry forest yet close enough to town and the beach for convenience.
Walking through the grounds, the Taranta stream winds softly nearby, and private trails invite you to explore deeper into nature. Along the way, three guest cabins appear, each fully functional and designed for comfort, offering privacy among the trees. A little further on, a striking two-story cabin catches your attention. Its open design floods the space with light, and the carefully thought-out storage details make it both stylish and practical — perfect for guests who want a longer stay.
Continuing through the property, you arrive at the main house. Its loft-style layout feels spacious and modern, with two bedrooms that open onto a large outdoor deck. From here, the view is alive with wildlife; colorful birds perch nearby, and the occasional howler monkey announces its presence. Tucked to one side of the deck is a private hot tub, the perfect spot to relax while surrounded by nature.
Stepping back outside, the path leads you toward the swimming pool, a central gathering point for guests to cool off and enjoy the sunshine. Nearby, thoughtful amenities like a full outdoor laundry area and a convenient outdoor washroom make the property practical for both short and extended stays.
The experience of walking through Eco-Turismo Guayacanes is one of harmony. Every detail, from the layout of the cabins to the placement of the deck and pool, is designed to bring guests closer to the environment without sacrificing comfort. It is not only a retreat but also a project with purpose, with part of its revenue supporting the Guayacán Real Foundation to protect and reforest one of Costa Rica’s most iconic trees.
This is more than a property — it is a complete eco-tourism experience ready to be shared with others, blending income potential with a lifestyle deeply connected to the land and its natural beauty.
