    You will get to know the local side of Costa Rica and immerse yourselves in the culture. We are right below the Juan Castro Blanco National Park and are surrounded by the most beautiful scenery to be found. Waterfall 6km away. Hot Springs, volcanoes etc. Visit my uncle next door and his amazing farm-to-table restaurant or volunteer at his farm and milk cow or make cheese! San Jose airport is 1.5 hrs away and La Fortuna/Arenal 40 minutes.

    We are located 1.5 hrs from the airport in San Jose and 40 minutes from Arenal Volcano. There is a beautiful waterfall 6km from our property & a fresh water spring and river about 5 minutes walking from home. Downtown is about a 30 minute walk or 7 minute Uber ride. You can find anything from restaurants to movie theaters to shopping centers and local markets. You can also enjoy Quesada downtown which is only 2 miles away, where you can visit the farmer's market every Thursdays/Fridays, butcher shops, bakeries, Central Market , Wal-Mart, or other local supermarkets. Do not forget to eat some local tacos at Viquez window on the south side of the Church across the street. There are also good hospital facilities and pharmacies in case you need them. There is a thermal water spring nearby (10 Kms) Hotel Termales del Bosque for $12. Feel free to visit our family farm-to-table restaurant just across the street from our farm, open from Wednesday to Sunday for lunch & dinner. You can also coordinate a visit to the organic vegetable garden and the dairy and cheese factory.
