We really enjoyed the breakfasts and dinners, fantastic local food and good portion size, loved that we got all day very delicious juices provided too. It was a very nice touch that we got hot cocoa on arrival. The farm tour was super interesting and it was great to see all the facilities that are involved in the cocoa production.

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 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.
The breakfasts and dinners were great. They have a very good chef. The location was excellent- an easy drive to the Park as well as to the town of Bijagua. The lodge was beautiful with nice common areas to sit, have a drink and look at all of the many plants growing inside of the lodge. The lodge also had large windows everywhere to look outside to see the spectacular grounds, manicured hedges and beautful flowers. They even had their own private hiking trail in the jungle.
Nearly everything was fantastic! The price can’t be beat. We planned to drive to Rio Celeste to go hiking but then we were told there are private hiking trails to a waterfall at the lodge. We opted for this hike instead and had zero regrets. We got the entire waterfall and swimming hole to ourselves and saw frogs and butterflies on the path! Breakfast was included and it was delicious. The cabin itself was charming and comfortable.
Bijagua serves as the ideal base for some great Costa Rica exploration. We could easily have spent a week here to hike Rio Celeste/Tenorio national park and add some interesting local sites and parks. Wonderful stay as well with the best hosts, giving us many great tips and service. Excellent breakfast, great rooms. All 10/10.
Nice basic room, clean and comfy. Great location for Rio Celeste Waterfall, and the nearby frog's paradise. Highlight was just sitting on the porch though, with views of the mountain, watching humming birds and toucans and dozens of other colourful birds happy to come right up to the garden. Really enjoyed our brief stay here
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.
The hosts are super friendly. They gave us great tips over breakfast and were always happy to help with anything we needed. They treated us like friends. The location is also great to visit Tenorio Park/Rio Celeste as it is all walking distance.
The Rio Celeste Backpackers Hostel was a clean and comfortable stay! Denora and her daughter were incredible kind and helpful - they helped order a taxi to the park and assisted with the bus schedule.
Right across the Rio Celeste park entrance. We stayed in one of their cute cabins. it was small but clean and colorful. they own the Soda which served a good breakfast. lots of greenery around.
