Poas Volcano Lodge

POAS VOLCANO LODGE lies between the Poás and Barva Volcanoes at 6200 feet above sea level on the ridge dividing the Atlantic and Pacific zones of the country. The lodge is nestled into the rolling pastures, at the foothills of Poás Volcano, one of the world's largest active craters. The impressive views from the house include not only the volcano, but also the western area of the spectacular Braulio Carrillo National Park as well as the Caribbean plains and even the Caribbean Sea. POAS VOLCANO LODGE is just a few meters from the nearest protected subtropical rain forest area, through which a network of trails has been designed for visitors to explore and see its birds and extensive flora.

The lodge itself was built by an English family, as the principal house for the surrounding dairy farm, El Cortijo, both of which they still own.

"Our last stop during a short visit to Costa Rica in 1970 led us to the cloud-forest area of Poás Volcano where we instantly fell in love with this farm, its expansive views, mysterious beauty, lush pastures, primary forests, and without hesitation we decided to live here. We arrived on a beautifully clear morning, the day we were to leave the country, and within a few hours we sealed a contract which was to bring us back here to live in this magnificent landscape."

It is therefore no surprise that the unique architecture and design of the Lodge carry features from English cottages, Welsh farm houses, American ranches, as well as details from local craftsmanship. Built on different levels, the rough stone walls, wooden beamed ceilings, dramatic arches combined with tasteful interior decoration, all contribute to the very warm and welcoming atmosphere of this former family home.

The Lodge is strategically located near several important attractions and is accessed by three major routes. The road up to the Volcano Poás passes through Poasito with many small farms and businesses offering a variety of choices to the visitor. The roads to Heredia and to Alajuela, pass through some of the most important and spectacular coffee growing areas of Costa Rica, and display magnificent views of the Central Valley. The road to San Miguel and Sarapiquí passes by many areas of natural attractions with some important visitor destinations. Arenal Volcano is less than three hours away, making this a logical next step for the traveller heading north and many guests spend their first and/or their last night of their stay in Costa Rica with us. The International Airport is only 45 minutes from the Lodge.
