Situated only 2 km from Cabo Blanco Nature Reserve, 1 km from the beautiful river Lajas, and 100m from a deserted, rocky and sandy beach. El Ancla de Oro is an ideal base for bird watchers and nature lovers. For the more adventurous there are hikes to hidden waterfalls, horse tours to the magnificent beaches of Mal Pais, plus fishing and snorkeling around Cabuya Island. Accommodation is in traditional thatched cabins, set in lush gardens where you may awake to the roars of howler monkeys, or the rustle of iguanas on the palm roof.

Cabuya is a haven for bird watchers and nature lovers, with plenty of areas to explore and walk including Cabo Blanco Nature Reserve. The beach of Cabuya is safe for swimming at high tide but rocky as the tide goes out. There are however many sandy beaches within walking distance.

Arranges can be made for transport from Paquera to Cabuya, US $ 50,-- up to 4 people, approximately 1.5 hours, or take a bus to Montezuma. If you reserve 2 nights or more, we can arrange free transport from Montezuma to El Ancla de Oro. However, it is remote and public transport is not easily available - pick up trucks serve as unofficial bus and taxi. For the less intrepid traveller or one who is not a keen walker, it is recommended to rent a four wheel drive vehicle in San Jose.

• Restaurant & Cabins
