Origins Lodge

What Origins Lodge does

Origins Lodge is a privately held luxury eco-lodge collection operating in the Bijagua region of northern Costa Rica, between the Tenorio and Miravalles volcanoes. The company runs two distinct estates on approximately 111 acres of private jungle: Origins Floral, comprising 7 secluded lodges (including the three-bedroom Vertigo Lodge) overlooking Lake Nicaragua and positioned for romantic escapes; and Origins Astral, launched on April 8, 2024, comprising 7 elevated villas at 800 meters above sea level positioned for families and groups of friends. The product combines accommodation with on-site gastronomy (El Salto and El Cosmo restaurants, Skyview Bar, wine cellar), wellness programming (LAKA-TII Spa, Koora yoga deck, sound healing, regenerative retreats), curated adventure activities (horseback riding, bird watching, Rio Celeste excursions), and destination events including weddings, elopements, and corporate retreats with buy-out options for up to 24 guests. Architecture and design integrate Maleku indigenous heritage, including vegetalized roofs and a Sukia shaman statue, and the property operates off-grid using solar power and an energy-free hydraulic ram water system.

The business model is direct-to-consumer: guests book through originslodge.com via the SimpleBooking reservation engine, with WhatsApp Business lines for reservations and in-stay concierge service across both estates, and dedicated email ([email protected]) for groups and events. Pricing is per-night/per-package, with published B&B rates starting at $699 USD per night and bundled packages (honeymoon, adventures, regenerative retreats, family escape, friends-and-family getaway, elopement weddings) priced as multi-night experiences excluding 13% taxes and 5% service fee. Distribution is supplemented by memberships in Select Hotels & Resorts, Remote Latin America, and Pure wellness networks, plus content marketing through a multilingual blog and active Instagram presence. Customer segments include couples and honeymooners, multi-generational families, destination wedding parties, wellness seekers, adventure travelers, and corporate/incentive groups. The company employs 14 staff and was founded by owners of French origin; it operates as an independent, privately held entity with no disclosed venture or institutional capital.
