M12328 lies between the Poás and Barva Volcanoes at 6200 feet above sea level on the ridge dividing the Atlantic and Pacific zones of the country. The lodge is nestled into the rolling pastures, at the foothills of Poás Volcano, one of the world's largest active craters. The impressive views from the house include not only the volcano, but also the western area of the spectacular Braulio Carrillo National Park as well as the Caribbean plains and even the Caribbean Sea. Poas Volcano Lodge is just a few meters from the nearest protected subtropical rain forest area, through which a network of trails has been designed for visitors to explore and see its birds and extensive flora.
The lodge itself was built by an English family, as the principal house for the surrounding dairy farm, El Cortijo, both of which they still own. Poas Volcano Lodge is a unique eco-tourist lodge set within a working dairy farm close to Poas Volcano National Park and the extraordinary Waterfall Gardens. The luxury rustic flavour complements the surrounding landscape of lush virgin cloudforest.
