With no roads leading to the area, its pristine beauty remains untouched, featuring uninhabited beaches, vibrant wildlife, and lush rainforests. Guests can enjoy deep-sea fishing, birdwatching, snorkeling, and scuba diving, while staying in rustic accommodations ranging from private cabins to tents.

Accessible only by a scenic 90 minutes to two-hour boat ride, the hotel provides warm, family-style hospitality, traditional Costa Rican cuisine, and a unique eco-adventure in one of the world’s most biodiverse regions.

This is an eco-friendly option, and there are solar-powered lights between 6 pm and 9 pm.

Meals are included during your stay. Poor Mans Paradise serves traditional Costa Rican meals that are made with local ingredients. When you leave for outings your hosts will provide you with a bag lunch. If you go fishing and bring back your catch, your hosts will be happy to prepare if for you. Meals here are mostly made up of fruits, vegetables, and fish. There is a bar on the grounds of the hotel, where you can sip cocktails and listen to Latin music.

Comfortable rooms come with sturdy furniture and cheery colors. Each room has a private bathroom with running water and a shower. On your private porch you can get some fresh air while reclining in the hammock.

According to the Operations Department of Poor Mans Paradise, the maximum weight of your luggage will be 10 kg or 22 pounds per person. If for some reason the wight of your luggage is higher, you will be charge $ 25.00 per person directly by the hotel.

As a way to minimize this impact, the hotel will let you leave your luggage at their office so you can carry only the necessary during your stay.

As the hotel does not check any of the customers' suitcases, you should not carry electronic devices (tablets, cell phones, laptops, etc.) in the suitcases you need to take to the hotel that are transported on the boat, in order to avoid any damage that may occur during the journey to or from the hotel.

You must carry them in your hand luggage.
