Pacuare Lodge
Set deep within 340 hectares of protected rainforest on the banks of Costa Rica's spectacular Pacuare River, Pacuare Lodge is one of the country's most celebrated wilderness retreats.
Reached either by scenic road transfer or, for a far more memorable arrival, a thrilling white-water rafting journey through lush rainforest and dramatic river gorges, the lodge offers an immersive experience in one of Central America’s richest natural environments.
Accommodation consists of just 20 beautifully crafted suites and villas, thoughtfully designed to blend with the surrounding forest while providing exceptional comfort. Options range from elegant Garden and River Suites to the spectacular Canopy Villa, perched high above the rainforest with a private suspension bridge, panoramic views and its own spring-fed plunge pool. Indigenous Cabécar influences are reflected throughout the architecture and design, while candlelit evenings create a wonderfully intimate atmosphere.
The lodge offers an outstanding selection of activities, from white-water rafting, canyoning and birdwatching to guided rainforest hikes and cultural experiences with the indigenous Cabécar community. Guests can also learn about the property’s pioneering sustainability initiatives, which include renewable energy systems, conservation projects and support for local communities. A farm-to-table dining philosophy showcases fresh local ingredients, while the spa provides a tranquil setting for treatments inspired by the surrounding rainforest.
Consistently recognised for its environmental leadership and exceptional hospitality, including recognition by the MICHELIN Guide for sustainability, Pacuare Lodge is an outstanding choice for travellers seeking adventure, luxury and an authentic connection with Costa Rica’s extraordinary natural heritage.
