Reviews

Luna Finca Nueva Lodge is a magical place nestled on a regenerative and biodynamic farm in San Ramon, Costa Rica. The staff are extremely friendly, happy, and welcoming. The reception and restaurant staff speak English and are very helpful. All three meals are made with fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy, eggs, and herbs grown on the farm. The bar menu consists of several speciality drinks that literally soothe the soul. A must have is the Moon drops Hot Cacao made with farm fresh milk and cacao hearts, the Bitters in soda as an aperitif, or warm up with a Hot Ginger Zing made with ginger and honey from the farm. The grounds are lush with beautiful birds, fruiting plants, and herbs from allspice and nutmeg trees to bananas, cacao pods, and papayas. There are numerous trails that lead you into the rainforest to explore nature and see animals like Sloths hanging peacefully above you or be captivated by a colorful bird you have never seen before. The Spa services offered range from clay rubs to hot stone massages that will melt away tension and leave you floating on a cloud. There are several rooms and bungalows to choose from for couples, individuals, or families. The Dome is a penthouse of all suites. The resort is Located close to the Hot Springs, Volcano, and Waterfalls. Stay here to truly experience the beauty of the Costa Rican rainforest and pura vida!
