Seven rooms in Bijagua De Upala
Seven rooms keep Origins Astral Lodge small in scale, and its Bijagua De Upala setting places the stay in Costa Rica. Travel + Leisure included the hotel in its It List Hotels for 2026.
Mountain views, garden outlooks, and quiet stays
Mountain and garden outlooks shape the property’s sense of place, with panoramic view, garden, terrace, private villa, and infinity pool elements. The quiet noise level suits travelers planning a slower stay.
Pool, spa, kids club, and local sourcing
Pool, spa, kids club, concierge, and wifi cover core on-property needs, while on-site dining supports a stay that need not revolve around leaving for every meal. The kitchen focuses on farm-to-table cooking and local sourcing.
