Breakfast With Toucans And Monkeys

Confortable place for a small group or large family. Situated between Volcan Poas and Braulio Carrillo National Park, just 40 miles north of San Jose and 20 miles before La Selva Biological Station, this elegant home is ideally located as a base camp for your Costa Rican birding tours. Our modern Eco friendly forest home is super clean, spacious and it comes equipped with washer and dryer. Located in a friendly small town.

If you are interested in seclusion, relaxation, and natural beauty, then this spacious, unique house is for you!

We hope you don't mind visitors; Toucans, monkeys, and dozens of species of birds stop by here to enjoy this paradise.

Wildlife Haven!!
Such a perfect, clean, and private location that suited our family's needs. We walked the trail to the river several times during the day and night to observe the wildlife and photographed so many birds, insects, reptiles, and amphibians. We could have spent the entire week here!

Awesome!!!!!
The best place we have ever stayed! Everything you need and more!. Relaxing, hiking trails, rivers, monkeys, toucans, and many more beautiful birds to watch. The property is absolutely stunning. The home was exactly as stated and more. The pictures can not do it justice. Gloria, the host, was equally awesome. She goes above and beyond to make sure your stay is great. We have stayed in a lot of VRBO properties and this was the best experience and communication ever! The meals prepared for us were a real treat. Already planning our next trip there. Would not stay anyway else in Costa Rica!!!

Another day in Paradise
Our stay exceeded our expectations and was the best part of our trip to Costa Rica. Our hostess, Gloria, was amazing. She communicated in a prompt and caring manner to any questions. We were greeted by the wonderful neighbors upon arrival. Warm empanadas when we arrived, breakfast prepared at our house the next morning and dinner with amazing neighbors. I truly felt like I had landed in Heaven. We will return and absolutely appreciate the opportunity to experience a piece of Heaven on earth! Do not miss an opportunity to enjoy this fabulous property.

Our children loved the unique character of the home. The view surrounding the home is amazing. There is a fun trail leading down to a river, beautiful garden with tasty fruit and we saw toucans. The host was very sweet and helpful. What a great place to stay.

Incredible experience
We had an amazing time here. The house has everything you could need - we were here for a month, so I do mean everything - and the property owner, Gloria, was promptly responsive to all our questions, and proactive in suggesting things to do and places to go. There are lots of great things to do in this past of Costa Rica, but the best part of the experience was the birds and animals right at the house. An unbelievable variety of birds - you really do have breakfast with toucans - and we heard howler monkeys every day, and saw howlers, capuchin monkeys and coatis. It was just incredible. It exceeded our expectations in every way.

Excellent!
This property is very beautiful! It is one of the larger homes in the area with gorgeous landscaping and all of the comforts of home. The house is well stocked and supplied with many amenities to cook, clean, shower, relax, whatever you need to enjoy your stay. It was very clean and well taken care of. We enjoyed all of the nature and animal sounds as well as the fresh flowers and fruit from the gardens. There is a beautiful deck to enjoy the views which was just recently built. Gloria is a fantastic host, very kind and communication was easy and prompt. We met the locals and enjoyed an authentic dinner cooked by a local chef right at the house while we relaxed. Very nice place and an amazing experience for our kids 14 and 10. Can’t wait to return again someday!
