LUNA LODGE

El lugar es un paraíso de naturaleza, es perfecto para descansar, aventurar y realizar actividades de caminatas y descansar

Upscale in the middle of nowhere, just what I love.

One of the most magical places I’ve been to on this planet.

Built by an equally amazing woman Lana with a ton of amazing support from the community. Still astounded by the feat of engineering and willpower to build such a magnificent structure atop a mountain in the rainforest.

A 40 minute drive from Puerto Jiménez or a 10 minute drive from the playa carate airstrip at the base of the mountain.

Upon driving into the entrance of the lodge, there’s the kitchen and dining hall to the front and a gorgeous pool area surrounded by trees to the immediate left.

The dining area has the most amazing food cooked by incredible staff. Gil, David, Mauricio, and everyone else were all spectacular. Kind, patient, friendly, and professional. The food was so fresh, I even saw a garden in the back with fresh herbs being grown. Dessert is so good I still dream about it. The fruit at breakfast is incredibly satisfying and rich. The coffee is ever refilling at the entrance to the dining hall. The water is sourced and process from high up on the mountain.

There’s a library and gift shop nestled by the corner of the dining hall. And if you’re lucky, perhaps you’ll catch a glimpse of Osa ????

There are ten bungalows and a few tents scattered around the campus. Up on top of the campus is the most awe inspiring yoga shala with a backdrop of the entire jungle. Seeing the mist roll in in the morning never fails to take my breath away. The stairs to the shala can be tiring so definitely take caution if it’s rainy season, but the view is always worth. They also offer reiki and massages here which have incredible deep healing.

The bungalows are cute with open air showers and are freshly set every day. It does get super dark at night so definitely bring a flashlight or headlamp. Howler monkeys may wake you up around 5-6AM in the morning but that’s part of the fantastic experience of the rainforest and being so close to nature. There are scarlet macaws flying about the area and it really feels like you’ve been dropped into a movie at times.

There is a waterfall train with access nearby to the campus as well. This place really has everything.

Would recommend this place if you’re looking to tap into nature and connect with yourself. Such an honor to be able to experience such beauty in my lifetime.

Spezieller schöner Ort.
Leider ist das Verhältnis Preis zur Leistung nicht gegeben.
Für den gezahlten Preis ( 500.- Dollar pro Nacht/ 2 Personen im Doppelzimmer) hatten wir viel mehr erwartet. Zimmer war nur einfache Ausstattung.
Die Mitarbeiter waren immer freundlich und zuvorkommend.
Zuletzt wurden noch zuviel abgebucht.
Schade,schade…….

Everything was simply spectacular: the whole staff is always keen to help and make you feel at home, starting from Lana, the incredible owner of the lodge; the food is local, fresh and delicious; there is a whole range of activities that Lana organize - we even had the opportunity to participate to a Cacao ceremony that was quite an experience. You could literally spend from few days to few months in that lodge as you will always feel at home.
The view of the yoga place is spectacular.
Just keep in mind that the road to get there requires 4W car and a really expert driver, so if you don’t feel confident, is a good option to accept the lift from the lodge.
