EP-305 The Business of Luxury Eco-Tourism in Costa Rica with Daniel Gehring

Need any advice or information, message us.We sit down with Daniel Gehring, owner of El Remanso Lodge in Costa Rica’s remote and spectacular Osa Peninsula.  We discuss what’s really happening in Costa Rica’s tourism market in 2026, how global economic uncertainty is affecting visitors, and the unique opportunities and challenges of operating a high-end hospitality business in one of the country’s most remote destinations. Daniel shares the realities behind running an eco-lodge, from staffing and logistics to the hidden costs guests never see, as well as what investors often get wrong when looking at Costa Rican tourism projects. They also explore whether the Osa represents one of Costa Rica’s biggest untapped tourism opportunities, where Daniel would invest his own money today, and what he would do if he inherited $500,000 to invest in Costa Rica.Free 15 min consultation:  https://meetings.hubspot.com/jake806/crconsultContact us: [email protected] Remanso Lodge: https://elremanso.com/
