Finca Amistad Cacao Lodge, hotel in Bijagua

Finca Amistad Cacao Lodge offers 60 hectares of Cocoa farm and guests can enjoy tours, chocolate and bird watching. The accommodation features a seating area.

Neat opportunity to stay on a real cocoa farm. They gave free tours and we did the paid chocolate bar making workshop and our kids really enjoyed. The room was rustic/simple but very clean and comfortable. They made homemade breakfast in the morning for our family that was delicious and we even did the paid dinner one night, which was also good. Overall a very unique stay in Costa Rica!

    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. 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. 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.

    After 10 days in rainforest lodging we splurged for this hotel for our last nite. Frankly, it was worth twice the high price! Everything, the room, the grounds, the pools, the food, the staff are all Category Luxe. The great part is that the owners have maintained a Pura Vida rural atmosphere for what is a Five Star property. A neat trick.We even were provided a COVID testing service for re-entry into the US at a reasonable price and one hour turnaround. Ive traveled the world and been in many great places. This place scores in the top five.

    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.

    The pictures of this property do not do it justice. It is stunning. There was a family of howler monkeys right on the property. If you love nature and wildlife, this is the place for you!! The home was clean and Kamal and Bertha were excellent hosts. They provided many recommendations for activities around the property and we were very happy with all their suggestions. This property is in a great location if you want to visit Rio Celeste waterfall, sloths tours and chocolate tours. I highly recommend this property.

    This was the first place we stayed after we landed in Liberia. We wanted to see Rio Celeste before heading to Arenal and La Fortuna area. We were the only guests for that one day/night - it was green/low season (me, my husband and young daughter were traveling), and Frank was so hospitable and kind. We enjoyed our short stay so much. The room was very beautiful and it felt like you were in the middle of all the gorgeous nature that surrounded you. Would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling in this area.

    Absolute immaculacy. This place is run by remarkable family that goes above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable as possible. In fact, it doesn’t feel like you’re staying in hotel/hostel rather like you’re being hosted by incredible people in their house. Dinorah & Wilfredo take care of everything around the place, they’re extremely kind, hospitable and their courtesy is beyond comprehension. Another great thing here is a breakfast! Delicious and lavish. Loved my stay there and would come back.

    We really loved our stay here. The room was comfortable and there was hot water. Breakfast was great. But the best part was the couple who ran the property - they are so kind and made our stay wonderful. We did not have a car so they helped with rides to and from the bus station, and even did some laundry for us. Miguel would point out cool birds for us to see and even stopped on our way to the hotel so we could watch an anteater in the tree. They are great people.

    When we arrived we got to choose between coffee or cacao as a welcoming drink and we also got some pieces of different chocolate to taste from, which was delicious :). The included cacao tour was very interesting and the staff was very kind. The room was comfortable, pretty and there was also a mosquito net around the bed. Overall it’s a quiet location, perfect to get away from everyday stress. We would have loved to stay longer than one night.

    The different fruit trees, lemongrass, cinnamon tree, cacao, coffee growing on the property! Even though we don’t know Spanish that well, we could still understand the host as he gave us a friendly and patient tour of the little farm. He was so expressive that we could understand about the plants even in Spanish. The kitchen is extremely clean and well organized, and all the appliances nice.

    The cabin at Cataratas Bijagua Lodge was ideal. Surrounded by beautiful gardens full of tropical birds, the accommodation was roomy and comfortable. Breakfasts and evening meals, being variations on the typical Costa Rican Gallo Pinto (rice and beans), were excellent and tasty. And the sloth in the tree behind reception posing for photographs capped it all.

    Truly a hidden gem. these cabins are tucked away on the outskirts of a Costa Rican village. You are secluded, yet feel as though you’re part of the everyday fabric of life. The cabins are comfortable and cute. The hosts are a family who are delighted to share their property. We loved our stay. If you’re looking for a hotel near Rio Celeste, this is it!!!

    Gorgeous gardens, views and a huge room. The staff was great and made a wonderful dinner for us even though we arrived so late. We loved walking their hanging bridges and saw a sloth. This was a perfect first place to stop from Liberia and a short drive the next morning to Rio Celeste. Wish we could have stayed longer.

    The hotel is on the road to the National Park Tenorio, just 800 m of walking distance. The bed is very comfortable and the zone is very quiet during the night. Breakfast was very abundant and tasty. You can spot many different birds from the porch.

    Run by a lovely family who have built the cabins and grown the garden from the ground up. We were able to grind our own cacao, take a night tour of the garden for frogs, and explored the area around bijagua, of course including el Rio Celeste.
