La Carolina Lodge, Costa Rica | Plan South America

Costa Rica | Nature | Property | River

La Carolina is a family-run lodge located in the Tenorio Volcano National Park, in northern Costa Rica. With a freshwater river winding through the property, guests can enjoy a refreshing dip after a busy day of exploring the tropical rainforest.

What we love about La Carolina Lodge

  • The 10 cabins, all different in size, and most with a private terrace and hammocks
  • The birding – expect to see varieties of toucans, parrots, and hummingbirds
  • The wildlife – as well as birds, monkeys, sloths, anteaters, coatis, frogs, and butterflies can also be found
  • The lack of WiFi at the lodge, offering guests the opportunity to properly switch off
  • Most of La Carolina is lit by candles and the electricity in the cabins is limited, meaning the lodge has minimal impact on the environment
  • The food – simple, but delicious. The beans, rice, fruits and vegetables are all grown on the farm at La Carolina
