Fodor's Expert Review Cabinas Sol y Mar
Main road, Zancudo, Puntarenas, 60704, Costa Rica
Just as the name implies, Cabinas Sol y Mar have plenty of sun and sea, as well as a beach fringed by coconut palms and apricot-color wooden cabinas with porches where you can take in the spectacular views of the Osa Peninsula year-round. In 2022, a new owner came in to bring new life to the property. Each breezy, roomy cabina (sleeps four) has high ceilings, lots of cooling fans, and has been recently refreshed. Two of the sunny bathrooms feature pebble-lined showers. The alfresco restaurant serves the town's heartiest meals and the tastiest brownies. The popular U-shape bar is an easy place to meet new friends.
