Böëna's Five Pillars:
Nature is luxury
Life-changing adventures
Rejuvenating indulgence
Authentic human connection
Untouched paradise
Pacuare Lodge
The origins of Böëna are intimately linked to the pure, transparent waters of the Pacuare River, which reflect in their flow some of the most beautiful forests in the world, inhabited by the thousand-year-old Cabécar culture. Pacuare Lodge is the place where this all began, and will continue to be the source of inspiration and natural magic for all the experiences related to the name Böëna.
LAPA RIOS LODGE
Like a unique and beautiful flower, mimicking its wild surroundings, Lapa Rios Lodge sprouted from the heart of one of the last lowland rainforests in Central America. With 1,000 acres of protected forest, home to some of the world’s most astonishing biodiversity, this special place never fails to deliver astonishing natural experiences.
MONTEVERDE LODGE
Monteverde is one of the most spectacular destinations in all the Americas, for its amazing nature reserves and its limitless adventure options. In this unique spot, guests of Monteverde Lodge experience the most breathtaking views of the forest from their own rooms — a life-changing vision that transcends luxury.
TORTUGA LODGE
The plantation-style structures that arise from this private reserve are located in the depths of what has been properly called the Amazon of Central America. A lush network of navigable canals, populated by hundreds of exotic species, offers not only delightful viewing but a sense of liberation that will stay with you forever.
CLOUD FOREST LODGE
The Cloud Forest Lodge offers the perfect combination between isolating yourself in nature and staying close to all Monteverde's facilities. We are located within the Bellbird Biological Corridor, two kilometers from the main town – literally in the middle between the Monteverde Reserve and the Santa Elena Reserve.
