Pacuare Lodge sits on the banks of the Pacuare River deep in the Costa Rican rainforest, with 20 bungalows within a 340-hectare protected area, reached by white-water raft or private flight. Accommodation runs across five categories, from Canopy and Jaguar villas to Linda Vista villas, River View suites and Garden suites, in architecture inspired by the indigenous Cabecar culture. Dining is at the farm-to-table Nairi Awari restaurant.
There is a jungle spa and a pool, in a riverfront setting. A sustainability-focused eco-lodge and member of The Long Run, it offers white-water rafting on the Pacuare, canyoning, zip-lining, birdwatching, Cabecar cultural experiences and hikes, with full-experience and river packages. Part of Boena Lodges and recognised by the Michelin Guide for sustainability and hospitality, it suits adventurous couples, honeymooners and nature and eco travellers who want a remote luxury jungle-and-river experience.
