Rio Perdido stands out for its remote location and easy access to the little-visited Palo Verde National Park; one of the best wildlife and bird watching locations in Costa Rica.
Despite the rather industrial design, 30 forest bungalows offer a tasteful and comfortable base for guests.
The East bungalows have a terrace with a hammock and for those that can’t quite leave the mod-cons behind, you will find Wi-Fi, a TV and A/C. The 10 Centre Bungalows are the most recent addition. Much larger, they provide an elevated terrace with hammock, a spacious bathroom and outdoor copper showers.
For its remote location, incredible views, unspoilt environment and impressive thermal rivers.
Rio Perdido hosts the mother of all canopy adventures. Several zip lines have been installed across the Rio Blanco Canyon to create adrenaline heaven. If you don’t have a head for heights, you will also find activities such as mountain biking, hiking and rafting. And should that still feel too much like hard work, there is a delightful swimming pool fed by thermal waters or indeed the beautiful thermal rivers themselves offer inviting pools for you to enjoy.
Just an hour and a half from Liberia International Airport, Rio Perdido is situated on the edge of a remote canyon in a 600-acre private reserve close to the Tenorio Volcano National Park.

Great work from John. The additions of zip-lining and surfing lessons were exciting experiences that we would not have considered without his expert guidance.
