The Setting: .......... 'The next morning, about 15 miles down the coast, I find my Shangri-La, the place I could recommend without reservation or caveat. I almost miss it as I vacillate about whether to follow a dirt road because of a sign that simply states Playa Las Tortugas.' The Washington Post .......... Imagine a setting with miles of sandy beach, tropical warm waters, clear blue skies, coconut palms, deluxe villas, exotic birds, sea turtles, natural beauty, tranquility, colorful sunsets, starry nights, and one of the most favorable climates in the world. ......... The beach front villas at Playa Las Tortugas provide a peaceful romantic setting for an easy-going tropical vacation at a destination of unspoiled beauty. Whether you surf, swim, kayak, ride horses, help save baby sea turtles, or just relax, at our eco-friendly destination you can experience the beach vacation of your dreams. .......... Did we mention we have a phenomenal surf break and a Sea Turtle Conservation Camp?

Activities: ..........“Each day, I would ride a boogie board in the perfect surf, kayak the pristine estuary that borders the property, do a little birding or horseback riding, and tour by car and foot the scenic Sierra mountains. Then, about 9 p.m. each of the three nights I was there, I’d walk a few hundred yards from my villa to the research station. There, I worked alongside trained staff, spotting nesting turtles, then digging up the eggs for incubation......” The Washington Post March 5, 2006 .......... At Playa Las Tortugas you can pursue a wide variety of activities, or simply relax—it’s up to you. .......... Choose activities just outside your door or adventure out for whale watching, splashing in a waterfall, climbing a volcano, and more. From yoga and massages to surfing and fishing, it’s all here for you.

Environmentally Friendly: .......... “I have the privilege of experiencing a working sea-turtle camp firsthand because I am staying at Playa Las Tortugas, a charming, ecologically minded property on an otherwise uninhabited stretch of pristine beach. Next to a tidal estuary lined with mangroves—where I spend a glorious afternoon in a canoe, spotting roseate spoonbills and great blue herons,among other bird species—this property demonstrates the value of conscientious development.” Alaska Airlines Magazine .......... “A residential development dedicated to environmentally conscious living”. ~ Robb Report Vacation Homes .......... “In the future our main concern will no longer be can we travel to every place on earth. Our main interest will be that it is worthwhile arriving there.” (Herman Lons, 1908)

Other Activities: Wave-surfing in the kayaks or on boogie boards, Canoeing and Birdwatching in the calm waters of the estuary, Sea Turtle Conservation.
