At the lodge you will be warmly welcomed and made to feel very much at home.

Whether you are travelling with family or friends, there is something here for everyone to enjoy.
The eleven comfortable and elegant rooms, some of which are newly refurbished, each have their own character and individuality. They include six spacious, luxury, bedrooms with king or queen beds and elegant en suite bathrooms; three of which have balconies overlooking the sweeping views towards Poas Volcano.
