Rincon de la Vieja Volcano
Guanacaste
Costa Rica
Our Lodge is located in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. We are inside the Guanacaste Conservation Area at the side of the Rincon de la Vieja Volcano. We are the closest Hotel / Lodge to the Rincon de la Vieja National Park.
Located 21 miles east from Liberia International Airport, we are within the border of Rincón de la Vieja National Park, and inside the Guanacaste Conservation Area in Costa Rica. Each of our tours, has its own charm and special interest. We offer Canopy Tour, Horseback Riding, hiking and more. Our natural wonders are relatively close to each other, yet the diversity of the landscape, vegetation, wildlife, volcanic activity, waterfalls and scenery can be starkly different when horseback riding or hiking from place to place.
We know that you will discover more within the natural kingdom in Rincón de la Vieja than you will find elsewhere.
When you leave our hotel, you will have much to take home. However, we hope that a small part of you stays with us, so that you will want to return again and again. But while you are here, our little part of the world is yours to explore and enjoy!
Rincón de la Vieja Volcano: An active volcano draped with virgin forest, this attractive park lies 12 miles northeast of Liberia at the end of a non paved road. Though it's a tough hike to the top, one can see Lake Nicaragua from the summit on a clear day, and the volcano's slopes are covered with both wet and dry forests, which contain hidden lakes, rivers and waterfalls and an abundance of wildlife.
Resident species include the resplendent quetzal, three-wattles bellbirds, morpho butterflies, tapir, coatimundis and three kinds of monkeys. The park also has small geysers, bubbling mud pots and mineral hot springs, which have earned it the name "Costa Rica's Yellowstone".
A total of 70% of the 400 hectares of land is dedicated to ecological project and reserve. We are offering peace and tranquility in harmony with the nature.
It is almost a rustic museum, like an old Hacienda house, constructed of wood with 49 double or multiple rooms with private bath and hot water surrounded by forest.
There is a bar, a small swimming pool, a family style restaurant with exquisite typical food, telephone, fax & Internet service and TV area.
We provide our electricity by falling water into a turbine, 24 hours a day, that moves a generator, producing the electricity. It is nice, quiet, ecological and safe.
