“Igloo Beach Lodge presents a curious alternative in Manuel Antonio. Its igloo-style rooms are a clean, refreshing escape after the beach, though the initial advertising may overstate the lodge's immediate proximity to certain attractions and amenities. Still, it stands as an eco-conscious option near the park.”
