The Lookout Rooms - Orquidea - Delfin - Iguana
These guest rooms each have their own spacious bathroom, hot water shower, and fan. The tile floors and baths add a luxurious touch. The custom made doors are uniquely carved by a local craftsman and a creative artist has done some lovely mural work on the insides of the rooms.
The furniture, which includes armoires, tables, chairs, and queen sized beds are a mix of bamboo, wicker, and indigenous woods. The rooms are kept cool and quiet by the concrete construction, 10
foot high ceilings, and lack of direct sunlight.See the Rooms Photo Index See the Rates page |
The Lookout Private Cabins
The private guest cabinas each have a bathroom with hot water,
private balconies and hammocks. There are paths to the beach, pool & house. Use of wood throughout the cabinas give a sense of warmth yet the open air style allows the cooling effect of the ocean breezes to waft though the cabinas.

The Monkey House
For our more adventurous guests who wish to experience the jungle to the fullest we offer the pride of the Inn, the secluded Monkey House. Idyllically located away from all the other rooms, the Monkey House is perched on the Inn's mountainside. Located in the rainforests canopy this cabana presents a unique, picturesque view of our endless beaches by day and the sounds and rumblings of the jungle by night. This open cabin provides; a queen bed and a loft with 2 singles, private shower and a sitting room to hangout and enjoy the world as it flies, walks or swings by. Adjacent to cabin there is a private, spaciously covered deck with lounge chairs and hammocks for relaxing.
The name was chosen because it is located under a popular "catwalk" for many of the troops of monkeys that make the jungle their home. As some of these species keep different hours than us, more than likely, you'll be woken in the morning to their passing overhead. Keep the camera at the ready, you won't want to miss these shots. Suffice is to say that this cabana offers you a once in a lifetime experience; a view that you will never be able to fully describe and an experience that you will never be able to (or want to) forget. .
Due to our open handrails this will be an adult only accommodation.

The Lookout Tiki Huts
These open air A-Frame Tiki Huts are 10 feet off the ground, giving you a tree house feeling, on a living hillside.
Each hut has a queen bed, table and chairs, fan, lights and netting surrounding your bed. Staying with our eco-friendly philosophy, solar will power the fan & lights. You are surrounded by a colorful garden mixed with orchids, flowers, banana and fruit trees, jungle growth, giant Joba trees full of Iguanas and scarlet macaws. Enjoy the walk from the bottom deck onto the boardwalk winding around trees and garden area, down a few steps to your private entrance. This walkway rolls through the hilly garden to the horse corral, to the beach and also passes a hammock and chair platform high above, a perfect place for yoga or just waiting for that Kodak moment.
The two Tiki huts are separate cabins completely out of view from the other with a central bathhouse in the middle. This wild bathhouse is very private for the guests but exposed to the animal kingdom with the open front facing the ocean and the jungle life; it’s the greatest shower you’ll take.
If you’re wanting to be ‘one’ with nature, you can’t get much closer than this.

The Lookout Inn Grounds

| Lush tropical gardens |
The grounds of the Lookout Inn are surrounded by beautifully
manicured flowering hibiscus which create trails from the roaring Pacific
Ocean to the cool fresh water swimming pool and wooden staircase that
takes you up to the most spectacular ocean views you'll see in the area.
While enjoying a cool drink and a dip in the pool you can feast your eyes
on the creative landscaping that includes a variety of flowers,
fruit trees, amazing bird life and more.
Perched on the side of a steep hill right above the road and expansive
beach, the inn commands an absolutely
Spectacular View of the surrounding rain forest, endless coast line and of course, the
majestic Pacific Ocean.
The property covers 11 acres, peaking on top of it's own ridge high
above the ocean.
The structure is a combination of American Southwest and Tropical, with
stucco walls featuring arched doorways and windows complete with
tropical hardwood trimmings and accents. Sandalwood plays an
important part in the aesthetics.
You don't ever have to rough it here if you don't want to. A solar
power system supplies plenty of power for lights, fans and 110
volt outlets. A satellite telephone is also available for your convenience.
