Macaw Lodge

Macaw Lodge is a small hotel is built in harmony with the environment. Though this lodge is nestled in a remote area, it is close to both Carara National Park (several hiking trails and good wildlife viewing) and the Pacific coastline (perfect for enjoying surfing, swimming or kayaking). This is a rural lodge that is set within the Central Pacific region of Costa Rica in Cerros de Turrubares (set in the countryside near Costa Rica’s central Pacific coast).

Sustainability:

The Macaw Lodge is trying hard to develop the awareness of sustainable living. In the property all the buildings are constructed with timber from the hotel’s own tree plantations. Solar energy is used for producing the water saving systems and the electricity for the lodge. Water supply is conserved via dual-flow toilets and low-flow shower-heads; the water, in fact, comes from the farm’s very own springs which are treated properly and in harmony with the environment, and no chemicals are added to the water. Bamboo was extracted from the lodge’s own plantations for the lodge construction and most of the floors and bathrooms were made from locally extracted stone that was worked on and polished.
