About Origins Luxury Lodge

The Tenorio Volcano National Park is over 31,000 acres of lush jungles and valleys, watched over by its towering peak. On a crest above the wild, vine-tangled landscape, the Origins Luxury Lodge is an escape for the body, mind and soul. When you're not gazing at the view from the infinity pool or your private, wood-fired hot tub, venture into the valley for the experience of a lifetime. You'll discover dreamy waterfalls, enjoy ziplining above the turquoise Rio Celeste and hike along beautiful trails where howler monkeys and sloths dwell in the trees. Origins really is something special...

What you'll love

The astounding natural beauty on display from every terrace and room at Origins Luxury Lodge - and the innumerous ways to experience it.

Insiders tip

There are a number of on-site activities including a sustainability tour to see the bee hives and 11 fishing lagoons, as well as a medicinal plants walk, birdwatching, and nocturnal hikes.

Something to think about

If you're on a self-driving trip, be aware that the road to the lodge is bumpy and not well-marked - you'll definitely need a 4WD vehicle.

The property

With grass-topped roofs and tree-trunk columns, the lodge blends right into its environment. El Salto Restaurant uses only ingredients sourced from its gardens or lagoons, which are turned into delicious, French-style dishes. You could also branch out and order a meal made with forestals and ancestral techniques! Right beside the oval infinity pool, the open-air Skyview Bar lives up to its name and serves an international variety of wines. Head to the spa for a holistic therapy or heavenly massage - the warm bamboo and seashell certainly have our attention.

The rooms

Scattered along the hillside, the lodges all have conical roofs with a skylight (for stargazing and temperature control) and 180° views of the shamrock-green grounds, the Nicaragua Lake and surrounding volcanoes. Each lodge has a handcrafted canopy bed and minimalist furnishings, while the bathrooms are semi-outdoor with stone walls and ornate mirrors. High in the canopy, Villa Vertigo accommodates up to six guests with three rooms, a kitchen, living room and spacious terrace where you'll find a fire-heated Jacuzzi.

Activities

Tenorio is paradise for wildlife-lovers and adrenaline-seekers alike. For the latter, there is white water tubing and rafting (ending with a 12-foot drop), ziplining over the Rio Celeste and horseback rides across the Tigra River. On hiking, paddleboarding and kayaking excursions, keep your eyes peeled for iguanas, tapirs, monkeys and over 150 species of birdlife. For something a little different, learn how sugarcane is converted into a spirit, the significance of chocolate and join the chefs for a cooking class.
