EYA Ecolodge

Our 3-night stay at the only one basic but tasteful cabin of EYA Ecolodge felt like a real privilege. This ‘off the beaten track’ location gave us a real authentic Costa Rican experience. After the challenge of the unpaved mountain access road (try to be there before dark!), we found ourselves in a tranquil large farm garden with very diverse flowers, trees, crops and birds alike. Run by a very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable family of three, this place is a secret heaven for lovers of nature and birds. Every meal (breakfast/dinner) was a prepared by Yuri with love and creativity and was a surprise feast for the eye and stomach. Esteban’s knowledge of the local bird species and his crops (mainly cocoa, coffee), gave an extra dimension to our visit. The conversations with the whole family, including daughter Abby, are unforgettable. As a bird photographer myself, I highly recommend this hidden gem to all birders.

Nothing

Absolutely quiet and peaceful place surrounded by nature, trees, birds, the river. A beautifully designed cabin with a large, cozy bed. Incredibly welcoming and friendly hosts and the best food we had in Costa Rica, authentic, nicely presented and very delicious.

Die Ecolodge liegt ruhig in einem wunderschönen Tal. Wir waren die einzigen Gäste von Esteban und seiner Familie und wurden sehr herzlich aufgenommen und sehr lecker bekocht. Wir können diesen tollen Ort nur wärmstens empfehlen. Man kann sich die Umgebung gut erwandern und man sieht viele Vögel.

Nichts - es war alles top.

Amazing, the views are incredible!!

It’s far from any main road, no stores around, need a 4X4 vehicle, far from civilization
