About the host

Hosted by Benno or Ilona

Host profile image
We are Ilona and Benno, the founders of Pandanus Lodge & Retreats.

Our journey began with a simple question: What do people really need to feel well again?

After many years of working in movement, coaching, and personal development, we realized that most people are constantly “on” — always busy, always connected, but often disconnected from themselves.

Pandanus was created as a space to change that.

Ilona is a highly experienced Pilates teacher with decades of international training and teaching. Movement has always been her language to help people reconnect with their bodies and find balance again.

Benno brings a background in business, structure, and creating meaningful experiences — with a deep passion for nature and simplicity.

Together, we built Pandanus not as a hotel, but as a place we would want to stay in ourselves.

A place where you can slow down.
A place where you can breathe.
A place where you can simply be.

We live what we share here — a lifestyle focused on movement, plant-based nutrition, and a conscious way of living.

Our goal is not to offer luxury in the traditional sense, but something much more valuable:
space, calm, and a feeling of coming back to yourself.

We are happy to support you during your stay — whether you want recommendations for activities, enjoy a homemade dinner, or simply relax and do nothing.

Pura Vida,
Ilona & Benno

Why they chose this property

We chose this area because it offers something truly rare: a perfect balance between accessibility and untouched nature.

Pandanus is located in the lush rainforest near La Fortuna, one of Costa Rica’s most beautiful and well-known regions. Within about 30 minutes, you can reach the Arenal Volcano, waterfalls, hot springs, and many adventure activities.

At the same time, we are not directly in the busy center.

This means you can explore everything — and still return to a place that feels calm, quiet, and deeply connected to nature.

When we first arrived here, we immediately felt something special.

The air is fresh, the surroundings are green all year round, and the energy is different. You wake up to birds instead of traffic, and at night, you hear the sounds of the jungle.

It’s a place where time slows down naturally.

We fell in love with this contrast:
being close to everything, yet feeling far away from it all.

The local community is warm and welcoming, and the region offers a beautiful mix of nature, culture, and authentic Costa Rican life.

For us, this location represents exactly what we want to share with our guests:
connection to nature, space to breathe, and the freedom to choose between adventure and relaxation — every single day.

What makes this property unique

What makes Pandanus truly unique is not just the place — it’s the feeling you experience when you are here.

This is not a typical vacation rental or resort.

We created Pandanus as a space for people who are looking for something deeper than just a place to sleep.

Our bungalows are designed to be simple, natural, and comfortable — surrounded by lush greenery, with private terraces that invite you to slow down and be present.

But what really sets us apart is the atmosphere.

There is a calmness here that guests often feel immediately when they arrive.

No noise, no rush, no pressure.

Just nature, space, and time.

In addition, Pandanus offers something very rare in Costa Rica:
a fully equipped Pilates studio with professional reformer machines, as well as a beautiful open space for movement and relaxation.

For those who want, this creates the opportunity to reconnect with the body, release tension, and experience a deeper level of well-being during their stay.

We also focus on nourishing, plant-based meals, prepared with fresh local ingredients and a lot of care.

Many guests tell us that their time here feels different.

More grounded.
More present.
More real.

Pandanus is not for everyone — and that is exactly what makes it special.

It’s for people who value peace, nature, and meaningful experiences.

And if that resonates with you, you will feel it the moment you arrive.
