    Our stay at Pacuare River Lodge was absolutely amazing. The rustic cabins provided a unique experience to immerse ourselves in nature, with breathtaking views of the surrounding wildlife. The food prepared by our guide was delicious, and we enjoyed the company of other guests during our stay. The highlight was definitely the rafting trip, which we will definitely do again when we return.

    We had an absolutely incredible time at this rustic river lodge. the location was stunning, with breathtaking waterfalls and swimming holes nearby. Our room with a balcony had the best view, and the private bathroom was clean and spacious. the staff, especially Johan and Jorge, went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. the food was delicious and plentiful, and the rafting experience was amazing. We felt completely safe with our experienced guide, Abel.

    The lack of clear explanation about what to expect, but it turned out to be a wonderful surprise.

    What an incredible experience we had at the lodge! We arrived by raft and it was such a thrilling adventure. The guides were not only helpful, but they were also friendly and made us feel at ease throughout the trip. The rooms were clean and provided a breathtaking view of the river and rainforest. We had the chance to go on two hikes to beautiful waterfalls with one of the guides, which was both refreshing and stunning. The absence of internet was actually a blessing, as it allowed us to truly disconnect and relax. And let's not forget the food! Every dinner was freshly prepared and showcased a delicious blend of Costa Rican and European cuisine. We were blown away by the quality and taste. We highly recommend this place for an unforgettable experience in the heart of nature.

    We stayed at Pacuare River Lodge for 2 days and it was an incredible experience. The location is spectacular, surrounded by nature and offering activities like bird watching, hiking, and white water rafting. Our screened-in cabin with a private bathroom and river view was outstanding. The food was the best we had in Costa Rica, and the staff, especially our guide Jorge, were knowledgeable, funny, and made our adventures safe and enjoyable. Johanna was also incredibly helpful and friendly. Meeting young people from around the world was an added bonus.

    Totally recommend this hotel.

    We opted for the raft in/raft out option which added excitement to our experience. The team at the lodge made everything so convenient for us, from securely storing our luggage to moving our car to the end point. The accommodations were cozy and clean, with amazing views. We loved being surrounded by nature and the peaceful atmosphere. The food was delicious and there were plenty of options. The staff were not only helpful but also incredibly fun and had a great sense of humor. They made sure we had a wonderful time.

    The location of this jungle resort is absolutely amazing. It is nestled in the middle of the rainforest, offering a truly immersive experience in nature. The scenic rafting experience was a highlight of our trip, with rapids ranging from class 2 to class 4. The knowledgeable guides made sure we felt safe and had an adrenaline-filled adventure. Additionally, the view from the cabins was stunning, overlooking the river and surrounded by lush vegetation.

    There were a few minor drawbacks during our stay. the shower only had cold water, which was a bit uncomfortable.

    My stay at this remote tropical location above the river Pacuare was truly one-of-a-kind. The individual bungalows offered amazing views and the cacophony of birdsong was incredible. I loved being able to disconnect from it all and fully immerse myself in nature. The rafting trip guided by Moses was exceptional and the overall organization of the trip was excellent. If you want to experience the real Costa Rica, don't miss out on this unforgettable adventure. For convenience, I would recommend staying at the Finca Tres Equis the night before the river pick up. I highly recommend this unique opportunity to stay at Pacuare River Lodge.

    I really got my money's worth staying at the lodge. The room was cozy and clean, with amazing views of the surrounding nature. The location was serene and peaceful, and the staff treated me with kindness and attentiveness throughout my stay.

    Menu for breakfast could have been more diverse.
