About

Pacuare Lodge is a luxury, eco-hotel with only 20 suites and situated on the banks of one of the world’s most scenic, white-water wonders, the Pacuare River of Costa Rica. This unparalleled location, with its vibrant nature, offers a scenic backdrop to adventure, romance and wellness.

Simple, and yet sophisticated, the indigenous Cabécar-inspired architecture, pristine rainforest, farm-to-table exquisite cuisine, and luxurious, well-appointed accommodations come together to offer an experience like no other.

At Pacuare Lodge, we combine luxurious appointments, unmatched service, and our celebrated sustainability philosophy with the natural gifts that the Pacuare River gives us. Each of our bungalows is a unique, separate dwelling that’s close enough to the restaurant and reception that you won’t get lost on your way to dinner, but far enough in the rainforest that you’ll be fully immersed in the magic of our surroundings.

What We Offer.

We specialize in customized experiences that include everything from thrilling whitewater rafting adventures to romantic honeymoon getaways. We pride ourselves on quality outdoor trips that stand above the majority of adventure tours offered in Costa Rica, on exceeding our customer’s expectations, and on ensuring that every tour is entertaining, informative, and utterly unique.

In Harmony With Nature.

The Pacuare Lodge was built with minimal impact on the river and rainforest . No trees were cut to build the bungalows and facilities. Instead, lumber was purchased from a sustainable reforestation project operated by small farmers.

More than Tourism.

The Pacuare Lodge is engaged in various projects to study and conserve the wildlife in our area, in partnership with Costa Rican Universities and nonprofit organizations. We’ve also partnered with local communities to help improve their basic services and livelihoods, while working to raise environmental awareness. With your support, we can accomplish even more to ensure that the Pacuare River’s natural and cultural treasures are preserved for future generations.
