Nestled on the banks of Rio San Juan in the historic village of El Castillo, Luna del Rio Eco-Lodge offers an eco-conscious retreat immersed in nature. Opened in September 2013, the lodge was established by Marga, a Spanish conservationist who fell in love with the area while working with a Spanish cooperation agency in 2005. With a mission to preserve the surrounding rainforest, Luna del Rio promotes environmental and cultural awareness among its guests.
The eco-lodge provides access to remarkable attractions, including the nearby Indio Maíz Biological Reserve—a must-see destination for nature enthusiasts exploring the Rio San Juan region.
The property features five thoughtfully designed rooms, each equipped with private bathrooms, air conditioning, fans, and hot water, offering either stunning river views or picturesque vistas of the village and its iconic fortress. Guests can enjoy a range of amenities, including a spacious sun deck overlooking the river, a 24-hour reception and tour desk, an on-site bar and restaurant, as well as luggage storage, laundry services, and daily housekeeping.
Luna del Rio Eco-Lodge combines comfort, sustainability, and an authentic connection to the region, making it an ideal choice for travelers seeking a tranquil escape in Nicaragua.
