ECO-ELEGANCE
Costa Rica’s Wilderness in Comfort and Style
7 days - 6 nights
Deep wilderness and extreme comfort. In very select spots in Costa Rica this is no longer a paradox. For those travelers who love nature, wilderness, and authenticity; for those that demand total comfort and style and find only boredom in faceless luxury resorts with artificial grounds, welcome to paradise. Costa Rica is blessed with two of the most intelligent ecolodge experiences on the planet. They are called ecolodges only as a reference, since they are something above and beyond, something that has yet to be properly classified. The Pacuare Lodge offers custom built precious wood cabins overlooking a pristine jungle river, wrapped in a private rain forest reserve. Attention to detail by the bungalow designers and lodge staff allow you to focus on the beauty and biodiversity that engulfs your private porch. The perfect complement to dense foliage and spectacular wildlife of the rain forest is the mountain freshness of a private cloud forest reserve at El Silencio Ecolodge, with cool waterfalls, exotic bird life, profound peacefulness and very fine mountain bungalows, great food and service. This trip is all about immersion in two precious ecosystems - enjoyed from bungalows with world class comfort and privacy. To accommodate flights coming and going this trip also features to quality and whimsical charm of the exclusive Finca Rosa Blanca Country Inn.
