Pure magic!
Luna Lodge is a magical place! Lana and her extended family of staff have created a true haven in the midst of the unspoiled magnificence of the Osa Peninsula. The design and aesthetics are in complete harmony with the natural surroundings. The dense with flora and fauna jungle and pristine ocean are literally at your doorstep. All meals are prepared and eaten together on the property, and they are fresh, local and delicious. Many of the ingredients are grown on the property. Luna Lodge also holds yoga and meditation classes, offers spa services of many different types, and indeed has developed its own curriculum and teacher training in yoga and other spiritual practices. There are hiking and beautiful waterfalls on the property. The hosts also can organize all kinds of outings for you, depending on your interests and level of fitness. The guided visit to Corcovado National Park just next door is not to be missed. This is not a luxury lodge. It's better -- like a harmonious extended family welcoming you to a more tranquil, vibrant and celebratory way of life in one of the most biodiverse spots on the planet. It is truly restorative. Thank you Lana, Mom, Amed and the whole team for a glorious visit. I will be back -- regularly! Michele

6/10 Good

The Luna facility does offer an isolated and peaceful rest, as advertised, but the site shows a beach that does not exist anywhere near, talks of "boogie boards" and to reach a beach takes at least an hour with most not useable because of bad ocean currents. Beyond that, all of the huts and tents are reachable on steep and uneven paths, frequently slippery because of moisture without any lights in this dark forest. We are aged with some disabilities, thinking that we would enjoy the beach. A disappointment. That said, healthy and agile folk, the site is quite nice. The staff is overwhelmingly helpful. The food is good.

Happy campers:)
Beautiful accommodations in a beautiful location. We really enjoyed the pool and the nearby hiking trails. Waking up to the sounds of howler monkeys right outside of our tent was incredible. Oh, and the food was amazing! My only complaint was that when I showed up for their daily yoga class there wasn’t any yoga to be had. Otherwise our stay was perfect and we will definitely return!

perfect stay at the edge of beautiful Corcovado
This place was fantastic - from the glasses of water served immediately upon pulling in and the check-in process, through the entire stay itself (and the plenty of activities, the wonderful meals, and the fantastic staff), to the very end, it was a perfect time! Lana, the owner and manager, is great; and Marlon the tour guide made this visit unforgettable!!!

This place is one of the most beautiful places to stay for a truly original Costa RiCan eco stay. We stayed in a bungalow and enjoyed watching the untouched forest on the mountains across the valley. We had the pleasure of seeing many varieties of flora and fauna right on the hotel property. That’s being said do not miss your chance to visit one of the last untouched forests of Costa Rica at the Corcovado National Park.. Marlo was an amazing guide and ensured we were able to view a plethora of animals including seeing the elusive squirrel monkey, sloths, anteaters and even snakes. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit this place and support the owner in her quest to protect the lands surrounding this beautiful property.

Oh My! Luna Lodge is a wonder in the middle of paradise. We arrived just before sunset and sat on our porch watching the colors in the sky change to orange and red as the misty fog drifted across the mountains. It was that perfect scene photographers like myself dream of. Infact, I cried with joy, so happy to witness such beauty. 'Mom' and Lana invite you, as if you are family, to join in informative discussions and light hearted conversations. So grateful that Lana chose to create this beautiful vision that so many get to enjoy. Plan on staying for longer than you think because once you arrive it will be hard to leave.

10/10 Exceptional

Luna Lodge is like a dream come true. This was my first trip to Costa Rica and it surpassed my wildest expectations. Luna Lodge is a gorgeous resort in the OSA Peninsula. To get there, you have to travel a dirt road and cross a few small rivers with a 4 wheel drive vehicle. On the way you will see monkeys, owls, sloths,crocodiles and many other amazing creatures. Mom served as hostess at Luna Lodge. She is actually the owners mother but everyone calls her mom. She is lovely and made sure that everyone had what they needed and that they were happy. We hired a private guide Javier Mendoza. He worked at the lodge when he was younger. He is a gem and a wealth of knowledge. My husband and I are leaving parts of our heart in the OSA peninsula and at Luna Lodge

Beautiful tranquil setting with the most attentive staff possible. No was not in anyone's vocabulary. Due to nature of terrain must be physcially fit and if staying in the tents would suggest tent A or tent B as the climb can be quite a challenge for the over 50 crowd. I stayed in tent B and absolutely loved the outdoor setting and feeling of being in nature. Would love to get a chance to visit again

Elegant ecotourism
Luna Lodge is the epitomy of sustainable ecotourism with a twist. Elegance. I am intentionally not using the word luxury because I think we often associate that word with artificially created physical comfort (aka airconditioning, and unlimited hot water) If you are going to the Osa peninsula to be imersed in one of the most biodiverse environments on the planet part of that experience will be discovering your body's natural ability to adapt and regulate itself. That being said the lodge is stunning and Lana runs every thing she does like the gracious host of an intimate affair. We stayed for 10 days and were never bored. We did many of the excursions and were especially impressed with our guides Jimmy and Kerlay. Both were native Costa Ricans with infectious enthusiasm for the wildlife they showed us. Jimmy is a published entamologist who's expertise one would expect to find only at a top university. Kerlay is the kind of person an injured Macaw would go to for help quite simply a kind human being. I cant begin to describe Lana I will only say that it is worth the trip to discover her for yourself. Last comment. If you go for the nature, try the yoga, if you are going for the yoga try the nature. You will not regret it!

perfect combination of adventure and rest
My husband and I had an amazing experience at Luna Lodge. From the very welcome at the Puerto Jimenez airport, the ride to Carate, the owner's welcome upon arrival and throughout our entire stay. We stayed in a tent, all the way up the steps. Couldn't have asked for a better view. We definitely had the best lodgings at Luna Lodge. Yes, up the steps, but so worth it to sit on the deck and see and hear the wildlife. We hiked, day and night, practiced yoga, had massages, kayaked, panned for gold, relaxed at the pool and had fantastic, healthy, meals with fresh ingredients. It was a perfect combination of adventure and rest.

Fantastic Place, slightly rugged
Overall a great stay. There were several annoyances that made it hard to give a full 5 stars. We stayed in a tent, which was a tiring 8 minute walk up a steep hill. This made us reluctant to go back to our room for anything other than a shower, or to go to sleep. The tent itself was decent, but the beds were full size I believe, and there were a few scary critters inside. It was also hot at night, but not bad enough to detract from our sleep. Much of this wasn't a surprise though, since it is the jungle, and much of this has been said by other reviewers. There are many positives when it comes to this place. The service was excellent, and the staff was kind-hearted. The food was always fresh and delicious. The pool area was well maintained, and the views, from both the restaurant and the tent, were spectacular. And our tour of Corcovado, arranged by Luna Lodge, was excellent. So if you're feeling adventurous, and want a nice place to stay, I recommend the Luna Lodge!
