Location
Corcovado National Park, Costa Rica

Enjoying a prime location on the edge of Corcovado National Park, Corcovado Wilderness Lodge is a deluxe outpost in one of the world’s last true wildernesses. There are no roads to the jungle lodge, and the only access is by boat. This premier ecolodge—a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence winner—offers the ultimate blend of luxurious comfort and nature-based adventure. Its setting on a hilltop above a palm-fringed beach, surrounded by tropical gardens and 170 acres of pristine rainforest, provides awe-inspiring views and cooling ocean breezes. 

Accommodations are in the Rainforest Villas spaced throughout the gardens for maximum peace and privacy. The villas' design blends the vibrant, earthy colors and textures of the jungle with contemporary sophistication and amenities. Each has separate sleeping and living quarters, plus a private screened porch. Special touches included wood-beamed ceilings, shutters, stained glass crafted by local artisans, and an open-air garden shower designed to offer a unique and refreshing experience of being one with the surrounding nature. Other amenities include safe deposit boxes, ample closets, hot water, tiled floors, ceiling fans and 24-hour electricity provided by the lodge's sustainable hydroelectric and solar systems. Two swimming pools are available for guests' enjoyment, a small spring-fed pool tucked into the forest, and the larger "El Solar" pool which uses solely solar energy to recycle the water. Los Vitrales restaurant features creative Costa Rican cuisine incorporating locally sourced fruits and vegetables. 

Corcovado Wilderness Lodge is a leading example of responsible ecotourism in Costa Rica, built and operated with a strong commitment to sustainability and minimal environmental impact. It is the closest lodge to Corcovado National Park—the crown jewel of the country’s renowned park system—on the remote southwest Pacific coast. Corcovado protects Central America’s last remaining large lowland rainforest and the region’s largest Pacific mangrove wetlands. Guests can explore these rich ecosystems with opportunities to spot monkeys, crocodiles, and abundant birdlife, as well as dolphins and whales offshore.
