I'm looking to take a trip to Costa Rica later next year with my wife and 16 year old son. Main aims of the trip will be general wildlife and butterflies - I'm the only birder of the trip.
We are planning the trip using Costa Rica Gateway, who have suggested the use of Tarcol Lodge when visiting Carara. The advantage of using the lodge is that is comes complete with a guide for the duration of your stay, and overlooks the estuary, so I get to do some birding from the veranda.
Disadvantage is that were're told the accomodation is very basic. Has anyone stayed there? Would it be suitable for the family, or should we go for somewhere like Villa Lapas?
We don't mind basic, so long as it's clean.
Thanks
