El Remanso Lodge is location in a pristine forest just outside Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica. This room is La Vainilla, and it was beautiful. All open air, it overlooked both the forest and Pacific Ocean. Animals and birds galore. Two queen size beds and two twin beds, two stories and a beautiful balcony. Highly recommended!

Playa Manzanillito on the Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica. Just one of many beautiful beaches with amazingly blue water!💙 #BVSblue
After releasing Green Turtle hatchlings during the late afternoon, I was convinced to stay behind for the sunset. We passed the time by throwing coconuts around, having a good laugh, and taking photos of each other. Then, all of us looked up and thought, "This is truly Costa Rica, absolutely gorgeous".
As you find your way across the rocks on the beach, the waves are crashing down right next to you. You jump from rock to rock, trying to avoid the tide pools in between them. Crabs scurry behind rocks and into the water as you near them. Above you, the sun is shining bright and a beach cleanup is about to happen. Today will be a good day.
