Need a Relaxing Vacation? Find it in Costa Rica!

I am not exaggerating when I say that I think Costa Rica is one of the most relaxing places on Earth. From desolate beaches to undisturbed rainforest, Costa Rica is the place to go if you need to recharge.

If you are looking for a place to get away from it all, considering visiting us at Osa Mountain Village. Set roughly 2,000 ft (600 m) up in a lush rainforest, Osa Mountain Village lies on 750+ acres of gorgeous wilderness.

One of the great things about our location is that it is away from the hustle and bustle of popular tourist areas. It really offers you the opportunity to get away from it all--while not sacrificing on the comforts of home.

The villas for rent have modern amenities such as cable and internet. They are furnished with everything you need to make a home away from home. 

As a guest, you will also have access to many different types of organic food--grown and raised right here on the property! Can you imagine the wonderful meals you can cook in this kitchen?

One of my favorite things to do here is explore the jungle. Within a short walk through the rainforest you'll find many beautiful waterfalls such as this. Who knows what kind of awesome creatures you'll encounter on your way!

If you enjoy gardening, you will want to check out the organic gardens and trails. You can get up close and personal with a lot of different species of insects and birds, as well as learn about permaculture and sustainability.

Within a short drive you will find many beaches. Some of them are so desolate--it's not uncommon to be one of only a few people there at any given time!

If the pool is more your style, enjoy a dip in the community pool. When you are done, enjoy a beverage at the pool bar!

At the end of the day, be sure you check out the sunset. The sunsets up here are to die for!

Costa Rica Rainforest Hike

One of the great things to do when you are in Costa Rica is to go on a rainforest hike. There are a ton of great places to hike and some beautiful things to see. Near our villa, there are many groomed trails--many of which lead to waterfalls.

Here are some pictures of the nearby trail:


Some of the trails are a bit "rustic." You might have to cross a couple small creeks--depending on how rainy it has been.

It's a good idea to wear rain boots and bring a walking stick.

There are some beautiful flowers and plants.

You will see some trees with impressive roots. It's amazing to think about how long these trees have been growing!

At the end of the trail is this beautiful waterfall. You'll be able to hear it for quite a while before you can actually see it.

The waterfall is really impressive!
