El Lugar features a restaurant as well as our swim-up bar. The cuisine at El Lugar delivers a true farm-to-table experience with the majority of our herbs, fruit and vegetables coming from our own organic garden. Gastronomically locavore, what doesn’t come from our garden is locally sourced from the abundant riches of our surrounding communities. Not only is our food quintessentially local and seasonal, it gives back to our local community.
The Fitness and Yoga Deck at El Lugar Costa Rica Resort offers an exclusive space for practice and body care. This wooden platform, surrounded by lush vegetation and verdant views, is equipped with yoga mats, blocks, and straps. We cater to all yoga experience levels and also offer additional fitness equipment for a rounded workout experience. Immerse yourself in a tranquil and revitalizing practice where birdsong and a gentle breeze create the perfect setting for the ultimate wellness experience and connection to nature.
