Retreat Accommodations
Retreat goers stay at the award-winning La Cusinga Eco-lodge , which is located in the midst of the region’s still-pristine jungle. La Cusinga is part of a 200-hectare nature reserve that overlooks the Pacific Ocean. The world-class chefs at the adjoining restaurant, The Gekko Restaurant, will prepare your food with local and organic ingredients — a truly delectable experience.
This eco-lodge is simple yet modern, and while priding itself on being both a sustainable and socially responsible business, it still manages to provide its guests with the most comfortable of lodgings. Located in a wild and gorgeous setting, La Cusinga will be more than just a place to unwind at the end of an activity-filled day.
