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.

Great lodges in wonderful garden with ponds, many birds , frogs, plants and trees. Fantastic host Victor who is most friendly, his wife also cooks great dinners and serves healthy breakfasts. Not far from national PARC and the lesser known but wonderful canu negro
The rooms are incredible, beautiful pods in the middle of the jungle with a beautiful view. We stayed here for one night to see Rio Celeste, definitely worth it. The rooms are really special, and the shower looking out into the jungle was a great touch. The gardens in the grounds are worth coming for a visit themselves, we saw so many birds and the hanging bridge experience is breathtaking, plus so great this is included in the price of your stay. Also would really recommend getting the marmalade at breakfast, that stuff is so tasty.
This is hidden gem,family who runs this place is amazing and since you feel like part of this home,such a precious traveling experience,it's not really like your ordinary hostel it's more like staying with family in their house.Despite place being little bit put of the main touristy paths(even better no) there is plenty to do,famous Rio Celeste hike,check the Tapir valley tours,hot springs on Rio Negro reachable in hour and half as well, definitely recommend this place,i had wonderful time,thank you!!
The manager Johnny one of the nicest persons we met very helpful and accomodating,gave us tips and information regarding activities and upgraded us to 2 rooms instead of 1as the place was empty. The rooms are very big although simple. Warm water not working very well. Overall we had a nice time at this place but the price was really steep for the conditions, a nice and friendly hostel at best. Stayed in 4 star hotels with lots of amenities for much less...
It is very very good location to go to the natural park and view the light blue river.
Exceptional, we went walking, only 2 km, the route is a bit difficult but possible. You can see the river before getting to the park , and take photos and also you will know if the river is blue or not before going to the park.
The hotel is in a very beautiful enviroment, the room is very normal, to stay one or two nights.
Would highly recommend this hostel to anyone travelling and wanting to see the Rio Celeste waterfall. Extremely clean and comfortable. The owners are so so sweet, we had a beautiful breakfast made for us each morning, the gardens are stunning and the vibe was extremely relaxing. Feels more like a home than a hostel!
We loved the location of this hotel. You sleep at beautiful wooden cabins next to cacao trees, right into nature (we had a sloth in the tree behind our terrace). It's such a peaceful place with very friendly and helpfull staff.
There's a free cacao tour included and it's so interesting! Thank you Raquel!
Great location, close to supermarkets and pharmacy, the road from this location to Rio Celeste is the best access road of the area.
Host was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area give us a lot of recommendations and answered all our questions in a friendly manner and with a lot of knowledge.
1, helpful owners. they helped us to visit several places. 2, excellent breakfast with most fruits and juice came from their garden. 3, it’s a very beautiful hotel and garden. 4, very tranquil . 5, there’s a good restaurant near by with delicious food, reasonable price and English speaking owner.
The bungalow was beautiful inside and outside in a wonderful location. The warm hospitality of the hosts made our 3 night stay really special. We will be back for a longer stay. The location is ideal for exploring Tenorio NP and Rio Celeste area. It's about 3km from Bijagua on a good road.
This was our top favorite stay in our whole trip to Costa Rica. It was a beautiful property with a unique experience. The staff is friendly, lovely dogs and cats, very private cabins, and delicious typical food. The cacao tour was the icing on the cake! Loved it here!!!
These cabinas are super well located, only 2 minutes driving from the entrance of Rio Celeste.
The owners are very nice and kind. Whatever you need, they will help you. The room was small but comfortable and clean, everything that we need for our 1-night stay.
This is a quiet, private unique property. The cabin was clean and comfortable, offering an amazing private space to relax. The host and staff were friendly and responsive to our needs. I would recommend this location for a nice stay near Rio Celeste.
I loved the beautiful grounds and the close location to the Tenario volcano, and the Rio Celeste river. The owners, Marcy, and Brian, were extremely helpful in every way. The included breakfast was definitely a plus.
The room was comfortable and clean with a 'frig and AC. The apartment is a bit hard to find, especially since we arrived at night. Pull in to a small, grassy driveway area right by the Rio Celeste Dreams sign.
Immediately across from entrance of Rio Celeste waterfall hiking trail at Tenorio Volcano National Park
Short walking trail through banana, sugar cane plus other crop plantation and small animal barn.
