Peaceful, Authentic, and Truly Special â Santa Juana Lodge
My friend Vickie and I spent several unforgettable days at Santa Juana Lodge & Nature Reserve, and we canât recommend it enough. Getting there was part of the adventureâa scenic four-hour drive from the airport, with the final stretch on a gravel road through rain and cows! But once we arrived, we were welcomed into a peaceful paradise.
Our private casita had stunning views of the rainforest and distant Pacific, and we were surrounded by the sounds of natureâbirds, monkeys, and fresh mountain air. The lodge blends eco-luxury with deep respect for Costa Rican culture and sustainability.
Meals were included, and they were a true highlightâdelicious, locally inspired, and beautifully presented. Huge thanks to Lady, Julia, Maribel, and Liz for their incredible cooking and hospitality.
Everyone we met was warm and welcomingâfrom Allan and Hugo, who shared the lodgeâs inspiring history, to Andres, Ariel, Randal, Cucho, Karolina, Liz, and Alexis, who made everything run so smoothly.
If you're looking for a stay that offers comfort, connection, and adventure in a truly unique settingâSanta Juana is the place. We loved every moment and hope to return!
