Caribbean Rainforest Sloths | Established Campground

March 29th, 2024 by pama

José the owner is a passionate of nature and loves to talk about it, it's a pleasure to learn all about wildlife in Costa Rica. We came with a tent, it's the perfect place to sleep, in a beautiful garden, were you feel safe and close to the nature of Costa rica. We stayed two nights, we highly recommend this place. You will also meet Miguel, he is staying on site to provide help to José to maintain the place, he was so kind with us and always wanted to ensure we are all good, if we have all we need, and gave us recommendations for the national park Tortuguero.
Also easy to access with all kind of vehicles.

Super place and José is a real passionate! We stayed one night and he shows us lots of animals.

We wanted to stay for the week but we had to work and the internet was really slow… starlink was not an option as there is too many trees around, we left

Lugar super recomendable si quieres ver animales en su hábitat. Jose es muy amable y nos mostró muchas cosas sobre la naturaleza. El área es verde y boscosa, todo está muy bonito y bien cuidado. Hay baño, ducha y una cocina que puedes usar libremente. El precio por noche es de 5.000c.ppn.
Si quieres también puedes tomar el tour para ver osos perezosos. Muy recomendable.

Super recommended place if you want to see animals in their habitat. Jose is very friendly and showed us many things about nature. The area is green and wooded, everything is very beautiful and well maintained. There is a bathroom, shower and a kitchen that you are free to use. The price per night is 5,000c ppn. If you want you can also take the tour to see sloth bears. Highly recommended.

We spent the night and did the sloth tour day after, Camping 10$ ppn, nice shower , restroom and fast wifi. The place is gorgeous. The tour is 20$ pp, a bit pricy but totally worth it. We saw 6 sloths(2 and 3 fingers) 100% recommended.

It’s a paradise ! José and Alejandro take really good care of this little peace of heaven. I saw 5 sloths in the morning including a baby sloth, tons of birds, frogs, butterflies and a variety of plants and flowers. The tour was only USD 10 and camping another 10. Highly recommended.

Very friendly owner.
The communal area looks and feels better than the pictures show.

The nearby ruta 32 is being turned into a 4 lane highway and you hear the trucks passing by. Otherwise quiet place.

On the corner of the turn of to the campsite, there is a swimming pool you can use (you pay).

The campsite is not signposted very well.

Great stop on way to La Pavona (Tortuguero NP), we loved this place and José the owner! Slept under tree with 2 sloths and saw many beautiful birds. 5000 colones for camping (pp) and 5000 for his (very nice) tour. Highly recommended!

Wonderful stop on our way from Cahuita to Arenal. Jose and Alejandro are very great hosts and will do everything they can to make you feel at home.
We did the tour with Jose. His knowledge about wildlife and nature in general is incredible. We have spent hours together looking for birds and any other type of animal.
We have seen many sloths too which was the main reason we came here and couldn’t be disappointed!
Can only recommend this beautiful place.

Un endroit d'exception qui mérite absolument la visite. D'une part pour le site qui est à la fois magnifique et possède tout le confort nécessaire pour les vanlifeurs. Mais surtout pour la richesse du lieu que nous fait merveilleusement partager Jose, amoureux de la nature et de son jardin. Il est véritablement aux petits soins, nous montre tout et nous fait goûter à pas mal de choses. En une journée (nous vous conseillons vivement de rester au moins 2 nuits sur place) nous avons vu davantage d'animaux en pleine nature qu'en une douzaine de jours au Costa Rica. Avec un rien de patience, nous avons vécu un moment inoubliable, où 2 paresseux sont descendus de leur arbre et ont traversé le chemin à un mètre de nous pour aller sur un autre. Vous serez peut-être accueillis aussi par Alejandro, tout aussi serviable et sympatique.

An exceptional place that absolutely deserves a visit. On the one hand for the site which is both magnificent and has all the necessary comfort for vanlifers. But above all for the richness of the place that Jose, who loves nature and his garden, wonderfully shares with us. He is really caring, shows us everything and makes us taste a lot of things. In one day (we strongly advise you to stay at least 2 nights there) we saw more animals in the wild than in a dozen days in Costa Rica. With a bit of patience, we had an unforgettable moment, where 2 sloths came down from their tree and crossed the path one meter from us to go to another. You may also be welcomed by Alejandro, just as helpful and friendly.

Price is 10$/pp/night which is very cheap regarding the experience we've got

Campground and nature reserve hosted by a lovely couple, Jose and wife. Beautiful garden and path through the forest to a river with lots of wildlife. Grassy space for camping. Sloths, frogs, and many birds can be observed here!!

We did not actually camp here, just came for a visit and were very pleasantly surprised. The space was beautiful, wild sloths, and such a lovely and hospitable couple. The two of them love nature and spend their time conserving the local forest. Jose spent almost 2 hours with us showing us every inch of his garden and the forest, then gave us coconut water and sat with us for a coffee. Wish we could have stayed!!
