Pacuare Lodge are proud members of National Geographic Unique Lodges.

In June 2019 the owners of Pacuare Lodge aquired another renowned high end ecolodge, Lapa Rios on the amazing wildlife-rich Osa Peninsula, and in January 2021 they announced they have acquired Monteverde Lodge & Gardens and Tortuga Lodge & Gardens. Respectively located in Monteverde and Tortuguero National Park, these two pioneering lodges have served as adventure outposts in some of Costa Rica’s most emblematic wilderness destinations since they first opened their doors in 1990.
