Rio Celeste Hideaway
A luxury lodge near Tenorio National Park with exclusive access to Rio Celeste.
Hidden in the foothills of the Tenorio Volcano, this lodge is just a 5-minute drive from the main entrance to the national park. Its 26 individual casitas offer privacy and high levels of comfort in a stunning natural setting. Each spacious casita features a King or two Queen beds, air conditioning, a gourmet coffee machine, and a private terrace with loungers. Bathrooms are generously sized and include both indoor and open-air showers.
Surrounded by lush rainforest, wildlife encounters are part of the experience – tapirs, coatis, monkeys, sloths, and countless bird species are often seen. Three well-marked trails (up to 1.2 km) wind through the property, including one that leads to the turquoise Rio Celeste, where guests enjoy exclusive swimming access.
Dining options include Kantala, serving local and international dishes, and Mandarina, offering Asian fusion cuisine. There’s also a lounge bar for cocktails and a café for light bites. Daily yoga sessions are complimentary, and facilities include a swimming pool with three hot tubs and a swim-up bar, a spa, a gym, and a games room.
