ORO Travel a Nicaraguan-based operator has partnered with the resort to offer guests an exclusive package "Sampler of Nature's Essence."

"Sampler of Nature's Essence" is the perfect prescription for the relief of the day-to-day combat we face in today's hectic world. ORO Travel has launched a series of "special interest and cultural packages" they will feature monthly. They decided to kick off its series with the "Sampler of Nature's Essence" package. ORO Travel picked Morgan's Rock because of it special characteristics offering guests: one the most spectacular sunsets in the world, a secluded beautiful beach, spectacular views of the magnificent bay from the bungalows, interaction with diverse wildlife such as monkeys and iguanas and delicious meals with fresh ingredients from the hotel's own farm.

"Morgan's Rock is the perfect example of an eco tourism property," said Pascal Picot, president and founder of ORO Travel. "The hotel relies on its own natural resources creating a sustainable environment and giving back to the communities. They actually do it and don't just use the words to promote themselves."

When we think of Eco lodges we think of back packers and roughing it. Morgan's Rock is quite the opposite, it is a real luxury lodge offering guests an organic experience. The details that have gone into building each of the bungalows, which simulate a tree house is a piece of art sketched into the mountainside. When you lie in your room with the sounds of the crashing waves below you, the singing of the local birds and the howling of the monkeys you are transported into nature's own symphony, where the performers share their environment with the audience that have decided to stay for a few days.

Many tourists combine Costa Rica with Nicaragua to facilitate transportation for these guests. ORO Travel can also provide transportation from the Liberia Airport in Costa Rica to Nicaragua. This is offered not only for this package but also for any services introduced by them.
