Johnny was the best host that you can imagine. He knows a lot about animals and is very helpful. He recommends nice places where you can do activitys around the area. Especially the night tour and the cacao tour are very nice. The hotel has a small garden with a lots of animals. You can see tucans and frogs around the area. The rooms are nice and clean and the breakfast is very good.
This place is definitely an recomendation. It was the nicest place where we have been so far in Costa Rica.

We really enjoyed our stay at Finca Amistad. The highlight of our visit was Lidia, a lovely lady who greeted us at check-in and made us feel welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. Though she didn’t speak English and we didn’t speak Spanish, her warmth and attentiveness truly touched our hearts.
We also liked the chocolate tour, although I personally wished our guide had been a bit more enthusiastic. For someone experiencing cacao beans for the first time, I think there’s more that could be shared about the process and the magic of chocolate (this wasn’t our first cacao tour, so we had higher expectations).
We especially loved the animals—the cat and the dogs that joined us during breakfast and dinner. The cat was so friendly and added an extra charm to our experience.

This is a beautiful, peaceful, unforgettable place run by a lovely couple, who are kind and clearly proud of what they have achieved in this small paradise. The cabins are simple, but comfortable. Breakfast is amazing, and the gardens attract birds, bats, butterflies.
The road is unpaved, but manageable with an SUV.

We drove from SJO to La Fortuna, to Bijagua and then to Puerto Viejo. We stayed for two night in each place and I probably would have loved to stay 3 night to have two full days in each location. Internet service was in and out while driving through the smaller areas (even if you pay T-Mobile for the Int'l service). We paid for a hotspot from our car rental (Adobe Rental Car) which was helpful to always be connected. Be sure to watch for the narrowing "one-lane" bridges, the potholes in some areas, and the locals on motorcycles. It's best to not drive at night if you are not familiar with the roads because some areas do not have lights and it can start raining at any time. We went into town (maybe 15 minutes away) to buy drinks and snacks from the market and ate at local spots. Soda Irma serves huge plates with this incredible pickled onions and jalapenos. We also enjoyed the local brewery, Blue River Brewery - you have to order the Chifrijo bowl.

The location within the valley was great, with short walks through the neighborhood to other areas full of birds. There was a very good restaurant about 100 meters away and a well furnished kitchen.
The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean, and sitting on the verandah drinking our morning coffee or a glass of wine in the afternoon listening to and watching the birds was very relaxing and pleasant.
There were panederias, restaurants and markets within easy walking distance of the property.

Absolutely gorgeous area and a must-see for nature lovers!
Absolutely gorgeous area and a must-see for nature lovers! Tenorio National Park was wonderful, although quite crowded, so get there as early as possible. I highly recommend the hanging bridges trail at the Heliconias lodge because it was incredible and hardly anyone was there. We also got to see toucans on the road up there.

The town is essentially a series of businesses along Rte 6, a major road heading North/South. It’s about 1 mile in length. Beautiful vistas coming from the south and heading between the 2 volcanoes of Tenorio and Miravalles. The town is not picturesque but it’s surroundings are. Besides hiking to the waterfall and the lagoon of Rio Celeste, which is an amazing color, there’s not a lot to do (or not a lot to do that you haven’t done elsewhere in CR). For bird watchers, Cano Negro Wildlife Refuge and its boat tours on the river and lake come highly recommended. 2 nights of accommodations is good for most people. We stayed at Finca La Amistad, a working cacao farm, which I highly recommend. Bucolic surroundings, great owner and staff, nice accommodations and a nice chocolate tour makes it a great place to stay.

Great little hike, we were happy to have Jose, as our guide.
Great little hike, we were happy to have Jose, as our guide. He was very knowledgeable and fun. We only wished his english or our spanish were better! We saw lovely birds, including scarlet macaws, a bat, monkeys, lizards. The park has 2 access points and the unofficial one was better as it was more natural and you didn't hear traffic noise.

Be prepared for daily rain squalls even in "dry" season.
Be prepared for daily rain squalls even in "dry" season. Great cloud-forest hiking, especially to Catarata Bijagua--not many wild animals, but plenty of beautiful forests, rushing river, and waterfalls. In Bijagua, Restaurante/Pizzeria El Barrigon -- popular with locals as well as tourists -- has good-value casados.

- owner and staff was very nice and helpful
- nice eco lodge
- you should book breakfast or at least dinner, they cook with local sourced ingredients, how they prepare it - it’s fantastic!
- they have an own private trail that you can walk on (saw monkeys, birds & some more animals)
- place fits perfectly into the nature, no lights at night so if it’s not cloudy you can see the stars very good
- options to do a night tour on the private trail with a local guide :-)
