"For an awesome weekend escape, fly to La Ceiba. Stay at the Lodge at Pico Bonito, dramatically situated below the bright green face of the 8,000 foot Pico Bonito and its plumes of high white waterfalls. The grounds harbor a rich diversity of plants, animals, and birds (over 260 speicies) and also a special sanctuary where one can step into a fluttering rainbow of 40 species of butterflies."

Named Best Jungle Lodge -
"Located at the edge of the buffer zone of the Pico Bonito National Park, the lodge offers up Honduras' first and only truly world class 4-star ecolodge experience. From the welcome cocktail upon arrival, to the gourmet meals served in the wood paneled dining room, to the tastefully furnished cabins, fluffy white towels and private porch where breakfast is delivered, no detail is too small and no request too large for the attentive and well-trained staff."

"Tucked away in dense rainforest in one of Central America's largest, least populated and least visited countries, the newly opened Lodge at Pico Bonito consists of 22 wooden, palm rooted cabins, connected by walkways to the pool, terrace and open-plan restaurant. In Honduras, the main attraction is the natural environment, and guests can choose between a visit to a tropical butterfly farm, exploring the Pico Bonito National Park, or white-water rafting on the Rio Corinto."

"Consisting of discretely hidden and luxuriously equipped individual lodges (no TVs, though, to distract you from nature), The Lodge at Pico Bonito caters to discerning travelers. There's a relaxed, colonial style restaurant and bar for guests. A superb four-hour guided and at times strenuous walk through the rainforest will show visitors a good cross-section of its diverse fauna and flora."
