Accessibility and Availability

Neighborhood

Sitting along the foothills of the Talamanca Mountain Range, the small town of San Gerardo de Dota may be lacking in size, but it makes up for it in natural beauty. Travelers come here to hike through the pristine wilderness and view some of the region’s most predominant flora and fauna. The Sevegre river is also stocked with 5 species of Rainbow Trout making this a fly fishermans paradise. This quaint village is one of San Jose’s finest and is quickly becoming one of the most elite tourist destinations in this beautiful country. San Gerardo de Dota is one of the best locations for bird watching opportunities that Costa Rica has to offer. The surrounding cloud forest is a haven for both birds and a vast variety of insect species, both of which likely go hand in hand. Tucked along the Savegre River Valley near Los Quetzals National Park, the community is a hot bed for avian species. In fact, roughly 200 species flock to and from the region, including tanagers, hummingbirds, woodpeckers and the famous resplendent quetzals. No question this place is a haven for birdwatchers. Considered to be among the most striking birds in the world, the quetzals here nest in the nearby cloud forest and can be seen most of the year. Nature enthusiasts will love the dense cloud forests, moss-covered oak trees, tropical plants and extensive network of trails through the region. Due to the diverse eco systems of the area, travelers will find plenty of beautiful spots to snap photos or take the occasional selfie.

Un lugar precioso, no hay forma de describirlo. Si buscas un lugar paradisiaco donde meditar, disfrutar del silencio y la naturaleza, sin duda es aquí! Las atenciones son inmejorables y los restaurantes de la zona vale mucho la pena! De lo mejor que he visitado en CR.

The hosts thought of everything when setting this amazing place up. We wanted for nothing. We thought the pictures were too good to be true, but they actually don’t do it justice. Sitting on the back deck with the river below is mesmerizing, and sleeping with the river sound is so relaxing and peaceful. It far exceeded our expectations. Plenty of good food options close by, and the hiking was spectacular. If you are a bird nerd like us, you will love the surrounding area.
