LUNA LODGE
Costa Rican Eco Lodge on the Osa Peninsula
Lana Wedmore, the visionary founder, owner, and operator of Luna Lodge, arrived in Costa Rica over 39 years ago, driven by an undeniable connection to the Osa Peninsula. Captivated by its allure, she resolved to establish her own Eco lodge, a haven where she could share the magnificence of this remarkable region with the world.
Every aspect of Luna Lodge is meticulously crafted to harmonize seamlessly with the environment, purposefully designed to blend into the forest’s intricate tapestry. Each stone step, lovingly laid by caring hands, contributes to the creation of a truly extraordinary space where every action is imbued with a profound intention of love and respect.
With extensive experience in the travel and tourism industry in both the United States and Costa Rica, Lana recognized the significance of the Peninsula de Osa and felt a deep calling to contribute to the healing of our beloved Mother Earth. Her ultimate mission is to safeguard, preserve, protect, and educate individuals about the astounding biodiversity of the Osa Peninsula’s rainforest.
By immersing yourself in the enchanting world of Luna Lodge, you not only embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery but also play an integral role in the preservation of this precious ecosystem.

The White Hawk Foundation
Luna Lodge has now joined together with The White Hawk Foundation to protect the Carate River Valley.
The goal of this project is to purchase forested lands for the protection of all of the wildlife and biodiversity in the Carate River Valley.
The goal is to create a protected corridor from Corcovado National Park to Luna Lodge and continue to the southern end of the peninsula. Much of this land is bordering Corcovado National Park and it is a very important biological corridor we need to protect.
Join us in protecting the rainforest and the species that inhabit it, and join us in impacting the world in a positive way.
