If you are considering a Costa Rica vacation or a rental on one of Costa Rica beaches, take a few minutes to consider the options available at Latitude 8 Lodge, in the Southern Zone of Costa Rica.

The deserted beaches of Playa Zancudo it a great vacation getaway. Even on busiest of weekends only about one kilometer at the northern end of this 10 kilometer long beach is occupied by more than a few vacation and sunseekers. Like elsewhere on Zancudo beaches, spotting another person on the beach in front of Latitude 8 Lodge is a rare sight, save a few locals on a surfboard when the tide is right. Privacy is one of our main objectives for guests at Latitude 8 Lodge. You can enjoy your days and romantic nights at the lodge and leave the crowds behind.

Most family vacation travellers to Costa Rica beaches only see the crowded resort areas in the north and assume the Costa Rica vacation rental market for a family vacation rental property is limited to these areas.

Ask yourself these questions before making a final decision on where to spend your Costa Rica vacation.

Do I want to spend my Costa Rica vacation on a crowded beach lined with umbrellas in front of an over-priced hotel catering to hundreds of other travelers on a Costa Rica family vacation?

Would my family prefer a vacations in a private cabin rental where the beaches are never crowded?


Would our family vacation be better spent in private rental cabin near the beaches, like Latitude 8 Lodge, or a rental house instead of a hotel room?

Would it be nice to save a lot of money by spending my vacation on a southern Costa Rica beach where the cost savings can easily exceed $100 a day, and possibly more?

I personally skipped the over-crowded beaches up north to spend my Costa Rica vacation a few feet away from a deserted beach named Playa Zancudo and ended up buying my own piece of this magnificant beach. You may find yourself doing the same and calling these beaches your home..

Trade that busy hotel rental scene and crowded beaches for a hammock strung between Almond trees and the privacy of a deluxe air conditioned beachfront cabin at Latitude 8 Lodge.
