Stay at Pachira Lodge

A rainforest lodge near Tortuguero Park.

Pachira Lodge: A Nature Haven

Pachira Lodge is located on a 34-acre estate near Tortuguero National Park in the remote Northern area of Costa Rica’s Caribbean coast. Accessible only by boat, this lodge offers a true rainforest retreat experience. It caters to nature lovers, families, couples, and groups seeking to explore the rich biodiversity of Tortuguero.

The lodge features 94 comfortable rooms that are perfect to rest after a day of nature adventures. The emphasis of this lodge is to maintain a connection with the natural surroundings, so the rooms don’t have some amenities like AC or TVs. Each room offers garden views, providing a cozy base for guests seeking to explore and learn about the rainforest.

Many Activities to Enjoy the Rainforest

A stay at Pachira Lodge includes various guided tours, such as boat trips through the Tortuguero National Park to admire the local flora and fauna, visits to the local town to get a taste of the Caribbean culture (and souvenirs), and walks on private trails to get an up-close look at everything the rainforest has to offer. 

Additional activities like fishing, canopy tours, and seasonal turtle nesting observation are also available for an additional price. When not exploring the nature of Tortuguero, guests can enjoy the outdoor pool, shaped like a turtle, which provides a refreshing respite from the tropical heat. There’s also a spa where guests can enjoy a range of exfoliation treatments and massages.

Meals, Drinks, and Forest Views

The on-site restaurant at Pachira serves buffet-style meals featuring the unique Costa Rican Caribbean cuisine, with a punch of flavors that combine the best of two worlds. Guests can also enjoy drinks at the bar, though these are not included in the package price. 

Pachira Lodge offers an opportunity like no other to experience one of Costa Rica's most pristine rainforest areas. If you're interested in visiting Tortuguero and staying at Pachira Lodge, contact our expert travel advisers for more information and assistance in planning your trip.

Our agent made our honeymoon stress-free and fun! She was available throughout, even when I felt unwell early in the trip. Her support and great recommendations helped us feel better fast. So grateful for the special touches she added along the way.
