The lodge’s idyllic location, nestled between the Pacuare River and pristine rainforest, facilitates an array of outdoor options.
Because most of these experiences are included in the lodge’s all-inclusive rates, travelers who want to enjoy an array of activities should consider booking an extra nights.
The Pacuare Lodge was built with a minimum impact on the river and rainforest site where it is located. Lanterns and candles provide light, as there is no electricity at the lodge.
No trees were cut to build the bungalows and main lodge. Lumber was purchased from a sustainable reforestation project operated by small farmers. The roofs are made from palm leaves installed by Cabecar Indians living in the area using their traditional style.
