El Silencio Lodge & Spa
About the hotel
"A heavenly eco-lodge escape set in the picturesque rainforest canopy, El Silencio Lodge & Spa features tranquil accommodations, inspired dining and a wealth of opportunities for adventure both onsite and off."
Though the lodge is located just 60 minutes from the city of San Jose, it truly feels like another world. Set on a 500-acre private cloud forest reserve near Juan Castro Blanco and Poas Volcano National Parks, the property could hardly be more picturesque. The suites and villas are designed to be in harmony with the surrounding natural world.

Though the lodge is located just 60 minutes from the city of San Jose, it truly feels like another world. Set on a 500-acre private cloud forest reserve near Juan Castro Blanco and Poas Volcano National Parks, the property could hardly be more picturesque. The suites and villas are designed to be in harmony with the surrounding natural world. All are immersed in nature, whether that means set on the terraced hillside, up in the treetops or in a secluded location by the Gorrión River. Simple luxury and easy elegance are the motivating factors behind the interior design which features canopy ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass doors (which open up to private decks and outdoor whirlpools) and an abundance of natural materials such as locally sourced woods and ornamental bamboo reeds.
Dining at the lodge is a love letter to Costa Rican cuisine with a health-focused gastronomy that showcases the harmony between nature and food. Las Ventanas Restaurant – which claims to be one of the most unique farm-to-table dining destinations in Costa Rica – features ingredients from the lodge's organic mini-farm. There, a stunning dining room is bordered by floor-to-ceiling windows and views of the forest, and in the evenings, candlelit tables and a crackling fireplace create a cosy, inviting ambience. Toro Bohemio Bar is an intimate spot for a drink or two with its local cocktails, extensive wine list and charming outdoor terrace – all of which make it the perfect place to kick back and relax after a day of adventures.
Speaking of adventures, there’s no shortage of opportunities at the lodge, both on-site and off. Foodies can enjoy wine tastings, coffee journeys, cocktail classes and Costa Rican cooking lessons, while artsy guests can learn how to create traditional Costa Rican crafts. You’ll also want to take advantage of the opportunities to get out into nature, whether that means hiking to mesmerising waterfalls, mountain biking or exploring the lush landscape on horseback. Guests can also partake in the lodge's commitment to nature by participating in a memorable tree-planting ceremony.
