Camping Fernando Morales | Established Campground

This place is great. There is a town you can walk to not far with a few restaurants and small grocery store. There are showers and toilets that are cleaned daily. When the tide is out the beach is great for rock and shell hunting. One of the best spots in Costa Rica we stayed! 5/5 would come again.

Lovely campsite, best experience between other 6-7 campsites around Costa Rica. Toilets and showers were basics but in good conditions. Price paid: 5'000 colones per person per night. The owner was very friendly and kind. Really loved the position right in front of the beach and the calm of this place. Lot of wildlife around (monkey, frogs, dogs, etc.)

Visité el Camping de Fernando con un grupo de 16 personas. Fuimos atendidos excelentemente, los servicios y todo lo que uno necesita para un camping bueno lo tiene ahí. Son muy amables, el lugar es espectacular y muy recomendable visitarlo. Saludos Fernando a ti y a tu mujer del grupo de búlgaros con los bongos :) Nos vemos pronto otra vez.

We stayed here 3 nights. While popular the site was clean, owner very friendly, each pitch had a sink (with potable water). One of our favourite campsites in Costa Rica, beautiful views, sunrises and great birding at the river right next to the campsite. Only downside is occasional wait for shower and toilets. 5000 colones per night/per person (Jan 2024).

We were the only ones here. Stayed two nights. It was magical to have the beach to ourselves. It looked like the area is not very well kept, leaves and coconuts all over the ground. There was basically just two decent spots to park the van. However the view to the ocean is beautiful! Showers and toilets were clean, and the sink with running water made life easier.

Really enjoyed it here and the doggos are so cute !

We would really recommend this place !

This was my favorite campsite in Costa Rica so far. It’s spacious so different groups can spread out, and the atmosphere was very quiet and laid back. Each site has its own sink with running water and surfaces like tables or counters that make it easy to prepare food or layout camp. Some sites have strings of lights too! I stayed at the furthest site near the little river, which had a beautiful arched dead tree that an iguana lived inside. It felt peaceful and remote here and the sunrise is stunning. I stayed two nights and could have stayed a week. No Wi-Fi and spotty service, but that helps you get away from the world. If you have the budget for a mid-priced fancy meal out, Habitat just up the road has the best fish taco since Baja California

Beautiful beachfront campsite, but beach is very rocky, so at low tide you have to walk 100m over the rocks to the water, at high tide surfers were about 20 minutes south, beautiful sunrise. Short drive to Montezuma waterfall, Montezuma beach, and Butterfly Brewery. Bathrooms were ok, potable water, not many people when we were there so pretty quiet, a few friendly dogs. 4000 colones per person per night.

Very nice campground. Lost of shade and seaview. Very nice sunrise 🌅. Owner Yolanda is friendly. Electricity and water on your site. Two showers and two toilets (with paper).

Really recommended.

Nothing to add on. Super lovely place to be if you want to explore Montezuma and arround.

Camping paradisiaque au bord d'océan avec le lever du soleil. Électricité, eau potable avec évier + table disponible pour chaque emplacement, wifi lent, WC et douches très propres. Yolanda et sa famille sont très accueillants. Nous sommes restés 6 nuits avec notre van!

It is a nice and safe little camping right in front of the beach, we were able to park our sprinter van with no issues, electricity on campsites. Yolanda and her family are lovely. Clean bathrooms and showers, internet only at the reception area, very quiet, it was nice to spend a few days enjoying nature after coming from Santa Teresa which one of those busy towns. We were lucky and got to see scarlet macaws every day.

Agradable y seguro campamento frente al mar, pudimos estacionar nuestro sprinter van sin problemas. Yolanda y su familia son encantadores, baños y duchas limpios, electricidad en cada sitio de camping, internet disponible solo en el área de la recepción, este lugar es bastante tranquilo, fue agradable pasar unos días disfrutando la naturaleza aquí después de visitar Santa Teresa. Tuvimos suerte y vimos Guacamayas Escarlatas todos lo días.

Stayed two nights after fleeing from Santa Teresa - best camping spot at the seaside ever - 3/4 shade - quiet (owner doesn‘t allow loud music) - peaceful - 4km from Cabo Blanco Riserva - clean showers and toilet - electric power - estuary pool from Rio Lajas at the back of the place provides for a sweetwater bath or 25m laps … - 2 P. Kayak complimentary > visit isla cemeteria by Kayak - simply awesome! Could easily stay here for 2 weeks (or life …) Col. 4000 p.P.

After driving from Mal Pais to Cabuya we decided it was time to stop. There was a choice of 3 campsites listed between Cabuya and Montezuma and we were going to look at all three, but after stopping here, we found it was adequate for our needs. 4k colones pp, toilets & cold showers not spotless, but clean. Sinks, concrete tables and some seats, with electric sockets and lights hanging over tables. Right by the sea, with plenty of shade.We were told wifi, but we have our own so don't know how good it is. Okay for one night, but wouldn't stay any longer.

Great quiet place! Not a place for swimming but beautiful views. 4000 per person

Lugar muy bonito con agua potable, electricidad, frente al mar y con un bello río al final de la propiedad, solo hay que llevar extensión eléctrica

Really nice lady that owns the place. Amazing view and site directly at the beach. 4000 colones per person. Great river to swim directly next to the camping!

Really good place, clean, the lady is super nice. Beachfront, excellent location. We had a great night, the campsite was all for us.

Unieke omgeving, relaxte sfeer, camping aan het strand, super vriendelijke host, toilet en douche zijn wat minder luxe maar schoon, laat het je in ieder geval niet afschrikken en vergeet deze camping niet in je reisplan mee te nemen, dichtbij de Montezuma Waterfalls (tip voor rond zeven heb je de waterval voor je zelf, daarna moet je ‘m delen met nog 30 anderen), Montezuma is overigens een leuk dorpje waar je prima kunt lunchen.

campground in front of the ocean. We paid 4000 colones per person.

Nice place. The beach is not the prettiest one but is nice. A lot of nature and animals around. Nice spot with a lot of calm. Big rig friendly. You can park in front of the beach.
Clean bathrooms + water and electricity
Rate > c4000 per person per night.

Une nuit à ce camping en bordure de mer (plage de galets, beaucoup de vagues!). Accueil sympathique de la proprio - 4000 colones/personne/nuit. Juste pour la pression de la douche, ça valait la peine! Électricité (fermée la nuit) partout sur le site, eau courante et toilettes rudimentaires mais c’est ça le camping!

July 30th, 2017 by inour.element

We paid 3500 Colones per person per night. Yolanda did not seem very friendly to me. Bathrooms dirty and no toilet paper. Shower cold but not bad. Camping right on the ocean was great!

Large, clean and quiet campground on the beach between Montezuma and Cabuya. Water with sinks, electricity, tables at each site, showers, toilet. 4000 col/person/night negotiable. Nice owner Yolanda. No wi-fi but good cell reception 3G. The owner has 2 dogs but not sure how they behave with other dogs. You can take the local bus outside the gate to go to Montezuma (700 col/person) about 3 miles.
