Luna Nueva Lodge

San Ramon, Costa Rica

Kids

Children will love Luna Nueva, which is set up well for families with older children (ideally age 8+, although all ages are welcome). The food is simple, but there’s plenty for children to enjoy. And the animals and activities on the farm are fascinating for kids, not to mention the full wonder of the rainforest.

Because of the potential hazards linked with the rainforest, we'd recommend it for older children, and possibly babies, only - if your children might roam off on their own, this isn't the safest place for them.

  • Best for: Children (4-12 years), Teenagers (over 12 years)
  • Family friendly accommodation: Families of 2 adults, 1 child can book Casa Luna which has 1 queen and 1 single bed in 2 separate rooms. Otherwise, book a family bungalow, sleeping up to 6. All have showers, not baths.

Save to favouritesPrintMailLuna Nueva LodgeSip your tamarindo juice, lie back in a hammock slung from the wraparound balcony and gaze out at the luxuriant wildlife all around you: lush tropical gardens below, and primary rainforest beyond. Swim in the spring-water pool or soak in the hot tub, and you may well feel you’re in paradise. But this is no ordinary lodge. A biodynamic farm growing organic foods, Luna Nueva also protects large tracts of primary rainforest and a vast garden of medicinal plants in a remarkable conservation project. Part of its aim is for guests to learn about the importance of this fragile ecosystem and to enjoy the natural richness of this beautiful place. You're welcomed in comfortable [r:CO007:bungalows] for families or couples, or in double [r:CO007:rooms] in 2 main houses: all with spectacular views. Luna Nueva attracts top level biologists, doctors interested in alternative therapies, yoga and meditation types, and any visitor interested in a pure rainforest experience. It's a unique, unforgettable place: you’ll never look at the natural world the same way again.
