Hidden within Costa Rica’s rainforest and reached by rafting along the Pacuare River, Pacuare Lodge feels far removed from everyday life. This award-winning eco-lodge is set within a protected reserve in the Talamanca Mountains, combining adventure, comfort and a deep connection to the natural world. Its remote location means the journey is as memorable as the destination itself.
Stay amongst the trees
Accommodation ranges from spacious suites to private villas, thoughtfully positioned within the rainforest to maximise privacy and views of the surrounding forest. Built using sustainable materials and inspired by local Cabécar traditions, the lodge sits lightly within its environment while offering a high level of comfort.
Explore Costa Rica's wild side
Days here can be as active or relaxed as you choose. Join expert guides on rainforest walks in search of colourful birdlife, learn about the region’s ecology, visit waterfalls hidden amongst the jungle, or simply watch the river flow past from your terrace. For those seeking a little more excitement, the Pacuare River is home to some of Costa Rica’s finest white-water rafting.
Who is Pacuare Lodge for?
The atmosphere is peaceful and exclusive, making Pacuare Lodge particularly well suited to couples, honeymooners and nature lovers looking to spend time in one of Costa Rica’s wildest landscapes. With its strong commitment to conservation, knowledgeable guides and remarkable setting, it’s an immersive rainforest experience that stays with you long after you leave.
