Rios Lodge has stories to share

Rios Lodge is the award-winning ecolodge founded by Rios Tropicales in 1989. This is the former Rios Tropicales Lodge. When new owners purchased the lodge after Rios Tropicales closed its doors in 2021, we renamed it Rios Lodge. Learn more about who we are. Our ecolodge history and Pacuare River history runs three decades deep in river and rainforest conservation and sustainable ecotourism. We are expanding on this rich legacy with exciting new work in biodiversity stewardship, new reforestation projects, and upgraded green energy capacity. Learn more about our mission, vision, and values.
